Why did Rex run away?
Our dog,Rex,used to sit outside our front gate and dark,Every time he wanted to come into the garden he would bark until someone opened the gate,As the neighbours complained of the noise,my husband spent weeks training him to press his paw on the latch to let himself in,Rex soon became an expert at opening the gate,However,when I was going out shopping last week,I noticed him in the garden near the gate,This time he was barking so that someone would let him out! Since then,he has developed another bad habit,As soon as he opens the gate from the outside,he comes into the garden and waits until the gate shuts,Then he sits and barks until someone lets him out,After this he immediately lets himself in and begins barking again,Yesterday my husband removed the gate and Rex got so annoyed we have not seen him since.
参考译文
我家的狗雷克斯,过去常坐在大门外面叫。每当它想到花园里来时,便汪汪叫个不停,直到有人把门打开。由于邻居们对狗叫很有意见,所以我丈夫花了几个星期的时间训练它用脚爪按住门闩把自己放进来。雷克斯很快成了开门的专家。然而上星期我正要出去买东西时,发现它正呆在花园里边靠门的地方。这次它叫着让人把它放出去!从那以后,它养成了另外一种坏习惯。它从外面把门一打开,就走进花园,等着门自动关上。这之后他就坐下汪汪叫起来,直到有人来把它放出去。出去之后,它又马上把自己放进来,接着再开始叫。昨天,我丈夫把门卸了下来,雷克斯很生气,此后我们便再也没有见到它。

so that,以便于,为了(表达目的)
so...that...如此...以致于表达目的:to/in order to /in order that/ so as to /so that
to + 动词原型, that+从句目的状语从句必须具备一个特征:在动词前面一定要出现情态动词
after this
got 是谓语动词
have seen 也是谓语dc
so annoyed(that)
so...that...:如此...以致于,结果状语从句,可以省略一个词
so that 目的状语从句,谓语动词前面一定要要情态动词
since(加在尾巴上)=since then,从那时起到现在为止
【Special difficulties】
表达目的的几种方式 :to/in orderto /so as to +原型
in order that /so that +目的状语从句目的状语从句当中不存在want,只有to do
非谓语动词的否定形式在结构前面如果发现do的动作不是由主语做的,而是由其他人做的,在do的前面加for sb
不定式的逻辑主语:for sb to do sth
