You do not usesuchwhen you are talking about something that is present, or about the place where you are. You need to use the phraseslike thatorlike this. Forexample, if you are admiring someone's watch, you do not say 'I'd like such a watch'. You say 'I'd like a watch like that'. Similarly, you do not say about the town where you are living 'There's not much to do in such a town'. You say 'There's not much to do in a town like this'.Suchin other contexts is quite formal.
such 后跟可数名词时要加a，如：such a pleasant surprise (如此的惊喜)。当后跟的名词为复数或不可数形式时，不加 a，如：such beautiful girls (如此漂亮的女孩们)，such power (如此的权力)。谈论此时此地的事物时不用 such，而应用 like that，like this 等词组表示。例如，表示喜欢别人的手表，不说 I'd like such a watch，而说 I'd like a watch like that (我也想要那样的手表)。同样，当说到所居住的城镇时，不能说 There's not much to do in such a town，而说 There's not much to do in a town like this (在这样一个镇里没有多少事可做)。such 在其他语境中的用法较正式。
