倒装语序(谓+主)
(一)完全倒装
完全倒装是只将句子中的谓语动词全部置于主语之前。此结构通常只用与一般现在时和一般过去时
1. There be句型及其变体
There be (live/stand/ lie/ seem/ happen/appear…)完全倒装
2. 句首有表示地点,方位或时间的副词(这类副词有here up、down 、 in 、out 、off 、away 、now 、 then 等) ,此时谓语动词常用come, go, run, rush,jump等,主语为名词
例如Now comes your turn 现在轮到你了
【注意】如果主语为人称代词,则不需要倒装。在完全倒装中一般不用进行时态,而是一般现在时或一般过去时
3.表地点的介词短语位于句首,完全倒装
例如In front of my house stands a tree
4.主系表→表系主
作表语用的形容词、现在/过去分词、介词
短语位于句首,句子完全倒装,以达到强调、
句式平衡或上下文衔接紧密的目的
例如Growing on the hill are varieties of flowers and plants
部分倒装
把be/助动词/情态动词 提前到主语的前面
Is am are was were
do does did
can could would may will might 等
1.only所修饰的副词、介词短语或状语从句放在句首时, 要进行部分倒装
例如Only then did I realize the importance of learning English
【注意】only修饰主语,仍用自然语序,如:Only socialism can save China
2. 否定意义的副词或短语位于句首时,常见的有:
in no way,in no case,by no means,on no account, at no time, under no circumstances(决不,无论如何都不)
not only…but also, never, little, rarely, seldom, hardly(几乎不,几乎没有), no sooner…than,hardly (scarcely)…when, not until 等
【注意1】not until 引导的从句位于句首引起的主句部分倒装(主倒从不倒)
例如Not until his mother came back did he finish his homework
【注意2】not only…but also(只倒前面)
(前倒后不倒)
例如Not only is Lu Xun a great writer, but also a great thinker
3. If 虚拟条件从句中.从句有(were/should/
had)
例如If I were you, I would work hard变为
Were I you, I would work hard.
4.so/such…that 前倒后不倒
