Question:medium

Sentence improvement-The winter was so severe that even water....

Updated On: Jul 16, 2026

Show Solution

Solution and Explanation

The sentence already has an adjective, "severe," directly followed by a result clause starting with "that."
Only the pattern "so plus adjective plus that" fits an adjective placed directly before "that" in this way.
Patterns like "too...to" or "such...that" would require a different sentence structure, so they do not apply here.

Correct answer: So severe.
