Do you think it is right? If not , how do you correct it? After correcting it, ask: Can you tell Millie there is a secret in the sentence? That is:

Step 6 Exercises.

改写同义句。

It’s ______ ______ ______ ______ help me with my English.

6. The poor children don’t have food enough to eat. (改错)

Step 7 Millie wants to learn more about “enough”. Let’s look at the following:

l S+ V+ adj./adv.+ (for sb) enough to do sth

l S+V+ so+ adj./adv + that + 从句

l S+V+ too+ adj./adv+( for sb) to do sth

注意：①当 adj./adv.+ enough to do sth 为肯定句时，可以改为 so+ adj./adv + that + 从句

不可改为 too+ adj./adv+to do sth

②当 adj./adv.+ enough to do sth 为否定句时，可以改为 so+ adj./adv + that + 从句

也可改为 too+ adj./adv+to do sth

③当句子的主语不是to do sth的逻辑主语时，用for sb放在to do sth的前面。

④当句子的主语同时又是to do sth的逻辑宾语时，宾语省略。如果to do sth中的do是不及物动词，则要加上适当的介词。

⑤too…to…也有③和④的特点，但so…that…没有这种用法。
