so that 引导的目的状语从句，作“以便”、“为的是”解，从句中通常用 may(might)或can(could)。
例如：
We learn English so that we may get more knowledge.
我们学英语为的是获得更多的知识。

他们早起，以便能赶上第一班公共汽车。 2. However, the tired children don’t get home until after 7:00 p.m. 然而，这些疲惫的孩子们直到晚上七点以后才回家。
until可用作介词或连词,意为“到……时候为止”、“到……时候才”或“在……时候以前不”.什么情况下表达什么意思,关键要看（主）句中的谓语动词是终止性动词还是延续性动词。1) .如果（主）句中的谓语动词是终止性动词, 应采用“...not ...until ...”结构,意为“……到……时候才……”.例如：
You mustn’t eat anything until you see the doctor.
看过医生之后,你才能吃东西。
Don’t get off the bus until it has stopped.
车停稳了以后再下车。2).如果（主）句中的谓语动词是延续性动词, 那么谓语动词用肯定式或否定式,它们所表达的意思有所不同。
①如果谓语动词为肯定式，则until译为“到……时候为止”。
例如：
I watched TV until she came back.
我看电视一直看到她回来。
②如果谓语动词为否定式，则until应译为“到……时候才”,即“在……以前不”。例如：
I did not watch TV until she came back. （= I began to watch TV when/after she came back.）
直到她回来我才开始看电视。3. And they are comparing them with other children.
他们（母亲们）把他们（孩子们）和其他的孩子作比较。

让我们把这张照片和那张照片作一下比较.
2) Children are often compared to happy birds.
孩子常常被比喻成幸福的小鸟4. Although it’s normal to want successful children, it’s even more important to have happy children. 尽管想要孩子成功是正常的，但是让孩子快乐是更重要的。
although conj. 虽然; 尽管; 但是; 然而
引导的从句放在主句前后均可，有时还可放在句中。
1）Although many difficulties are still ahead, we are determined to make greater achievements.尽管在前面的道路上还有许多困难,但是,我们决心要取得更大的成就。2）He often helps me with my English although he is quite busy.
尽管他相当忙,但是还常常帮我学英语。
although引导的从句不能与but, however连用,但可与yet, still连用。不能说：Although he was old, but he worked hard.应把but去掉。当然,保留but而去Although也可。__________________ 考试技能??
