19 Adverbial clause of purpose
1) Придаточное предложение со значением цели. Отвечает на вопросы What for? For what purpose? (зачем? с какой целью?). Вводится союзами so that, in order that, lest, for fear (that).He slept with the key under his pillow so that no one could steal it. — Он спал, держа ключ под подушкой, так чтобы никто не мог его украсть.
а) Если глагол в главном предложении употреблен в настоящем или будущем времени (Present simple, Present perfect или в одном из времен Future), то за союзами in order that, so that обычно следуют may / can / will. Возможно также и употребление настоящего времени. Союз so that более употребителен в разговорной речи, чем союз in order that.Look at me as you talk, so that I may see your eyes. — Смотри на меня, когда говоришь, чтобы я мог видеть твои глаза.
б) Если в главном предложении используются формы прошедшего времени ( Past simple, Past continuous или Past perfect), то в придаточном предложении, вводимом союзом in order that или so that употребляются could, should, might или would.A carpenter came to fix the bed so that it would be on a level with the window. — Пришел плотник установить кровать так, чтобы она была на уровне окна.
в) После союза lest обычно употребляется конструкция should + inf или форма сослагательного наклонения (Subjunctive).That stern old man had sent his son away and hidden him from the world lest some scandal should come to light. — Этот безжалостный старик отослал прочь своего сына и спрятал его ото всех, чтобы избежать скандала.
I avoided mentioning the subject lest he be offended. — Я старался не затрагивать эту тему, чтобы не обидеть его.
г) В придаточном предложении с союзом for fear that обычно употребляется конструкция с глаголом might, однако в разговорной речи то же самое значение чаще выражается с помощью придаточного, вводимого союзом in case, в сочетании с прошедшим временем глагола.I bought the car at once for fear that he might change his mind. (= in case he changed his mind). — Я сразу же купил машину, а то как бы он не передумал.
Довольно часто цель выражается не полноценным придаточным предложением, присоединенным союзом, а инфинитивным оборотом (см. Infinitive clause). Такие конструкции проще, они более употребительны в разговорной речи. Инфинитивный оборот присоединяетсяI leant again so as to look directly down into the shadowy pit. — Я снова наклонился, чтобы заглянуть в плохо освещенную впадину.
б) либо непосредственно:I went to live in France to study French. — Я поехал во Францию изучать французский язык.
4) отрицание.Более естественно при отрицании звучат конструкции с инфинитивным оборотом (см. Infinitive clause), оформленные выражениями so as not to, in order not to.Let's try some other way, so as not to go through there. — Давай пойдем как-нибудь по-другому, чтобы не проходить там.
