B.The more;the less
C.The fewer;the more
D.The less;the more

2.The teacher spoke so quickly that I did not understand her most of the time.
so...that...是常见的句型,意为“如此……以至……”。其用法如下:
①“so+adj./adv.+that从句”。当that从句是肯定句时,该句型可转换为“adj./adv.+enough(for sb)to do...”结构;当that从句是否定句时,该句型可转换为“too+adj./adv.+(for sb)to do...”结构。例如:
She was so angry that she couldn't speak.=She was too angry to speak.她太生气了以至说不出话来。
②“so+adj.+a/an+可数名词单数+that从句”。该句型可以转换为“such+a/an+adj.+可数名词单数+that从句”结构。例如:
This is so interesting a book that we all enjoy reading it.=This is such an interesting book that we all enjoy reading it.这本书非常有趣,我们都喜欢看。

3.I want to learn new words and more grammar so thatIcan have a better understanding of English movies.
so that用作连词,意为“以便;为了”,可引导目的状语从句,从句中常用情态动词can或could等。当so that从句中的主语和主句的主语一致时,可以用in order to或动词不定式短语替换,但意思基本不变。例如:
He worked hard so that he could get high grades in the exams.=He worked hard in order to get high grades in the exams.=He worked hard to get high grades in the exams.他学习用功为的是在考试中获得高分。
【知识拓展】
so that也可引导结果状语从句,意为“以至于”,从句中一般不含can、could等情态动词。例如:
He worked hard so that he got high grades in the exams.他学习用功,结果在考试中得了高分。
