解析:
【分析】首先明确题目考查so...that、such...that、so that、although/though的用法,需先区分各结构特点:①so...that:so后接形容词/副词,引导结果状语从句,表“如此……以至于……”;②such...that:such后接名词短语(多为“a/an+形容词+可数名词单数”),引导结果状语从句;③so that:引导目的状语从句,表“以便、为了”;④although/though:引导让步状语从句,表“虽然、尽管”,不能与but连用。再结合每个空的结构和语境逐一判断。
【解析】1. 空格后是形容词funny,符合“so+形容词+that”的结果状语结构,表“故事如此有趣以至于我忍不住多次笑出声”,故填so; that;
2. 空格后是“a talented actor”(名词短语),符合“such+a+形容词+可数名词单数+that”的结果状语结构,表“汤姆·汉克斯是如此有才华的演员以至于我在他最后的独白时哭了”,故填such; that;
3. 空格后“we can understand them better”是“we should watch films more carefully”的目的,表“为了更好地理解电影”,故用so that;
4. 前半句“我计划每天了解电影”和后半句“这个月我有点忙”是让步关系,表“虽然”,故填although/though;
5. 后半句“我明天有重要会议”和前半句“我已经准备得足够好”是让步关系,且位于句首,首字母需大写,故填Although/Though;
【答案】1. so; that
2. such; that
3. so that
4. although/though
5. Although/Though
【知识点】so...that用法、such...that用法、连词辨析
【点评】本题考查初中英语核心连词短语的辨析与运用,需结合结构和语境判断,属于基础语法题,注重对常用连词的掌握。
