So That /and So
He realized that the world could run out of key resources, ------------ he was a harsh critic of the wastefulness of modern industrial society.
A) so that B) whether C) so long as D) and so E) but I have no objection to "D" but "A" could also be a logical answer . May I take your comments on the question please? And a last word, is double coordinative conjunction possible as in "and so"? Thank you friends! |

dear free-thinker my thinking is not all that free to choose two options as an answer from the abovementioned sentence. i think "D" is the most logical answer, and "and so" is not a double coordonate conjunction ; rather a combination of coordinate conjunction: "and"......and subordinate conjunction:"so" .....and these two operators could well be used together and your argument that option "A" is also a logical answer is beyond my comprehension please explain away that if i'm wrong....

I will support naveed's stance. 'A' does not seem applicable to me. 'D' is the most suitable one.

Free Thinker,
"so that" falls in the category of Conjunction of Purpose and Conjunction of Consequence, while "and so" is Conjunction of Manner or Degree the statement "He realized that the world could run out of key resources, ------------ he was a harsh critic of the wastefulness of modern industrial society. " represents manner, so option D is the appropriate answer. Regards Qurat

Do u agree wid me..
1. "so that" for the purpose clauses; "so that" is also used, especially with a comma, to inform a result.
2. "So that" can denote a result or logical consequence; so it would seem to be ok here. And some extra sentences supporting "SO THAT" expressing result or consequences: The doctor explained the nature of my illness in medical terms, so that I didn’t understand fully. [result] The doctor explained the nature of my illness in medical terms so that I wouldn’t understand fully. [purpose] She studied very little ,so that she got a rather low grade. [result]They bought a large house, so that the children had their own rooms [result] Many contestants later failed drug tests, so that the race had to be rerun. [result]

dear free thinker...u may be right, but can you plz mention the original source on the basis of which you can justify your assertions? i think without mentioning your source your affirmations will be all but blurred distractions for all of us....and 1 more thing :don't mention internet sources especially based on American lexicons and etymologies, for they have got a bit of shift from the course of action which we are supposed to undertake while learning english,,,,so plz come up with the original sources ...and i hope you will entertain this exhortion from my side...i'm still an immature learner, so if you enlighten me with some new facts which i have been ignorant of so far, then it will really be great of you
with all the regards and prayers ,,,your brother naveed Last edited by Abdullah; Saturday, April 08, 2006 at 08:39 AM. |

free thinker,
your reply just illustrated 'so that' situation, you didn't give any sound illustration of 'and so' Quote:

that = so that?
A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct.
that = so that?
