1. One year, the weather was so dry that no food would grow.
So … that …是一个常见的句式结构,表示“如此……以至于……”, 副词so之后接形容词或副词,that引导一个完整的句子,有时that还可省略。例如:
The film is so interesting that I want to see it again.
这部电影如此有趣,以至于我想再看一遍。

2. The wife told her husband that unless he left the children to die in the forest, the whole family would die.
unless的意思是“如果不,若非,除非”,它引导的是一个条件状语从句,相当于if…not。因此,上面的句子改写为:
… if he didn’t leave the children to die in the forest, the
whole family would die.
3. We thought you were never coming back.
We thought …表示人们对过去的某种想法、判断等,可以译作“我们本想……; 我们原以为……”。如:
I thought I would pass the exam, but I didn’t.
我原以为我会通过考试,但是我没有。
4. As soon as the moon rises, we can follow them instead.
as soon as 表示 “一……就……”,再如:
As soon as my mother came home from work, she began to cook for us.
我妈妈一下班到家,就开始给我们做饭。
5. It’s leading us to that wonderful house made of bread, cake and sugar.
此句中made of bread, cake and sugar作定语,修饰名词house, 形容词wonderful也是house的定语。在英语中,大部分形容词作定语修饰名词时应前置,短语或句子作定语修饰名词时则后置。如:
the young teacher with a book 拿着一本书的年轻老师
