Watch the Video
This party is such a great idea.（开）派对是如此好的一个主意。
注意so 和such 的运用，一般so后用形容词或副词， such后用形容词和名词，如上例可改成: This party is so great an idea.
如：今天天气这么好我可以去钓鱼了。
Today is so nice that I can go fishing.
Today is such a nice day that I can go fishing.
语法重点一：
such与so 辨析
such为形容词，意为“这（那）样的；主要修饰名词；
so是副词，意为“这（那）么；如此地”，主要修饰形容词和副词。
e.g. Do you like such weather
你喜欢这样的天气吗？
I’m so glad to see you.
很高兴见到你。
他画得那么好。
当名词前有many，much，few或little等词修饰时，要用so而不用such。
e.g. There are so many / few people in
the hall.
大厅有这么多/这么少的人。
You have so much / little
homework today.
你今天有这么多/这么少的作业。
“such + a / an +形容词+可数名词单数形式”相当于“so +形容词+a / an +可数名词单数形式”，表示“如此……的一个……”。
e.g. She is such a lovely girl. =
She is so lovely a girl.
她是个如此可爱的女孩。
It’s been three years since we last saw our primary school classmates.自从我们上次看到我们的小学同学起到现在有三年了。
since 引导一个句子或时间点，相当于for 引导时间段，对应的主句是相应持续性动词的完成时态。非持续性动词对应的时间是时间点。
语法重点二：
选用such或so填空。
1. The man told us ____ funny a story.
2. She has _____ a beautiful dress.
3. How can you get ____ much money to buy the car
4. Don’t go out in ______ cold weather.
5. Don’t eat _____ quickly.
so
such
so
such
