连词so的用法

 

■so用作连词,主要用于表结果,意为“所以”:

It’s very cold, so wear a heavy coat. 外边很冷,因此穿一件厚大衣。

The door was locked, so we couldn’t get in. 门上锁了,所以我们进不去。

I couldn’t have won, so I didn’t go in for the race. 我不可能获胜,因此我没参赛。

The play began at eight, so they must dine at seven. 戏八点开始,因此他们必须七点吃饭。

It was dark, so I couldn’t see what was happening. 天很黑,所以我看不见发生了什么事。

There happened to be a policeman on the corner, so I asked him the way. 恰好拐角处有一位警察,我就向他问路了。

■有时可与并列连词and连用,构成习语and so(相当so):

He told me to do it and so I did it. 他叫我那么做,所以我就做了。

He worked hard and so he succeeded. 他勤奋工作,所以他取得了成功。

There was so much to eat and so few people to eat it. 有这么多东西可吃,而吃的人又这么少。

I forgot to post the letter, and so she never heard about my divorce. 我忘了寄那封信了,所以她一直不知道我离婚的事。

■不要按汉语意思将“因为…所以…”直译为because…so…:

误:Because he was ill, so he couldn't come.(去掉because或so中任意一个)
