新概念三里有一个这样的句子： There is so much variety that you

Question

新概念三里有一个这样的句子：
There is so much variety that you never have to make do with second best.

1.不应该是so+adj.+that吗？
2.second best前为什么不用加the？

Answer 1

　　1、so... that...句型中的so是副词，常常用来修饰形容词或副词，意思是“如此/这么…以致于…” 常用句型为：①主语+谓语+so+adj. / adv. + that从句。 如：The boy ran so fast that I couldn't catch him.
　　②so+形容词+a(n)+单数名词+that从句。如： She made so good a meal that we all ate far too much.
　　2、形容词最高级前通常要加定冠词the，而当形容词最高级前有序数词、物主代词、指示代词或名词所有格等限定词修饰时，最高级前不用the。这里second就属于序数词了，所以不加定冠词the。追问

但句子里是so+much variety

追答

　　不好意思，漏了一种。
　　③so+many / much / few / little（少）+名词+that从句。
　　当名词前有many、much、few、little（少）等词修饰时，句子中要用so...that...而不能用such...that...。例如： There was so much work to do that everybody got bored. 有这么多的事要做，人人都感到厌烦了。

Answer 2

这个不是so...that句型
从that开始到best结束是定语从句

Answer 3

Much variety adj
