题目分析：略。
选项分析：
A选项：首先要明确的是，so...as to...与so...that...表达的意思一样，均为“太…以至于…”，一种因果关系。他们的区别在于，so...as to...用于主语和to后面的动作的发出者一致时，而so...that...中，主语与that之后的主语不需要一致。
那相比之下，A B两个选项间没有成分差异，只剩下 of 和 ‘s 的区别。此时，我们需要考虑，liquid作为一个无生命物体，需要用of。
B选项：正确。
C选项：enough需要置于water前面。因为，沙子是和“足够的水”饱和，所以才获得了液体的属性，而不仅仅是“和水饱和”，所以足以获得液体的属性。
D选项：enough不能和so as to 混着用。
E选项：表达“太…以至于…”中没有so much as to的用法。
1. so... as to... 和 so... that...
一般说起来如果so...that...可以选，坚决不选so... as to...，so that在gmat的优先级就是比so as to高，这OG里也反复强调了...
2.so as to/ so that / enough to A. so…as to 的结构表达了一种目的，而so…that 表达了consequence，语义上是有区别的，这里描述的是自然现象，用表目的的as to不是太合适——充满水以为了获得液体的特性 vs 充满水导致其获得了液体的特性，明显后者比较好；
3.so...as to...用于主语和to后面的动作的发出者一致时，而so...that...中，主语与that之后的主语不需要一致。
