50 Bài tập So as to, So that

I. Lý thuyết

1. Ý nghĩa của các cụm từ "In order to" và "So as to”

Đây là 2 cụm từ chỉ mục đích (Phrases of purpose) có nghĩa là: để

Ví dụ: I make this cake in order to give my mother for her birthday party.

(Tôi làm cái bánh này để tặng mẹ trong dịp sinh nhật của bà ấy.)

2. Cấu trúc

*Khi mục đích của hành động hướng tới chính chủ thể của hành động đó:

S + V + in order/so as + to_V

Ví dụ: She studies English. She wants to talk to foreigners.

⇒ She studied English in order/ so as to talk to foreigners.

*Khi mục đích hành động hướng tới đối tượng khác:

S + V + in order for + O + to_V

Ví dụ: The teacher uses a microphone. He wants his students to hear his voice better.

⇒ The teacher uses a microphone in order for his students to hear his voice.

3. Cách nối câu với cấu trúc “in order to” và “so as to”

Khi 2 chủ ngữ giống nhau, ta bỏ chủ ngữ câu sau rồi bỏ các từ như “want, like, hope...” , giữ lại động từ sau nó.

Ví dụ: She turned on TV. She wanted to watch the game show.

⇒ She turned on TV to watch the game show.

4. So that = in order that: để mà.

So that và in order that được dùng để nói về mục đích, nguyên nhân xảy ra mệnh đề trước đó.

Cấu trúc:

Mệnh đề + so that/in order that + S + can/could/will/would + V

*Lưu ý: Thông thường nếu không có NOT thì dùng can /could còn có NOT thì dùng won’t / wouldn’t, trừ những trường hợp có ý ngăn cấm thì mới dùng can’t/couldn’t.

E.g.

She learnt cooking so that she can cook for herself. (Cô ấy học nấu ăn để cô ấy có thể tự nấu cho mình).

She learnt cooking so that she wouldn’t eat out everyday. (Cô ấy học nấu ăn để cô ấy không phải ăn ngoài mỗi ngày).

→ Trường hợp này không phải ngăn cấm nên không dùng “can’t/couldn’t”

I sold my laptop so that I can’t play games. (Tôi bán chiếc máy tính đi để không thể chơi game nữa).

→ Trường hợp này ngăn cấm việc chơi game.
