倒装句
英语的倒装句可分为两大类:全部倒装和部分倒装。
全部倒装
全部倒装是指将句子中的谓语动词全部置于主语之前。全部倒装的句子通常只用一般现在时和过去时。
Here,There,Now,Then等副词放在句首时,句子要全部倒装,谓语动词常用come,go,be,lie,run等。例如:
There comes the bus!
Now comes your turn.
表示方位的副词或介词短语置于句首时,句子要全部倒装,句中的谓语动词是come,go等表示运动的动词。
The door opened and in came the headmaster.
Up and up went the prices.
High flew the plane.
注意:
上述全部倒装句中主语如为人称代词,应放在动词前面。
Here comes Mr.Lee.
Here he comes.
Auay went the students.
Auay they went.
有时为了句子的平衡或强调,将表语置于句首,也属于全部倒装。
例如:Gone are the days when we used the foreign oil.
部分倒装
部分倒装是指将谓语动词的一部分如助动或情态动词置于主语之前。
否定副词如no,not,never,seldom,little,hardly,以及含有no,not的短语放在句首时,句子要部分倒装。
Never in my life have I heard such a thing.
Little did we expect that he could come.
Not a single word did he say at the meeting.
By no means should we do like this.
注意:如上述句子中的否定副词不置于句首时,句子结构不倒装。
以否定词开头的关联结构
注意: No sooner…than…,Hardly/scarcely…when…,Not only…but also,Not until…
Not until late in the evening did he come back.
Hardly had he got on the bus when he heard a shout.
Not only did he buy a bike for me but he also sent it to my house.
注意:No sooner…than…;hardly…when;not only…but also这类句型,只将前半部分倒装,后半部分用正常语序。
当only置于句首修饰状语时,句子要部分倒装。
Only in this way can we learn English well.
Only when he is seriously ill does he ever stay in bed.
so,neither,nor在句首表示“也”或“也不”句子要部分倒装。
Tom is very kind. So am I.
I like English. So does Jack.
I can’t speak English. Nor/Neither can he.
注意:so 后主、谓语不倒装表示前面所述内容的肯定、确定。
试比较:
Tom is very kind. So am I.(两个人,一样情形)
Tom is very kind. So he is.(一个人,一种情形)
汤姆非常和蔼。他就是如此。
由as/though引导的让步状语从句,从句形成倒装。
Child as he was,he could speak five languages.
Hard as he work,you can’t support your family.
Try as you do, you will ever win.
注意:表语为单数名词时,不定冠词“a”应被省去。
She–maker as he was,he was very happy.
so…that/such…that句型中so,such 位于句首时,句子要部分倒装。
So fast does light travel that it is difficult for us to imagine its speed.
省略了if 的虚拟条件从句中,主谓形成了部分倒装(虚拟语气的条件句中,省略 if 后,had,were,should等应提前)
Had you told me earlier, I could have done something .
Should anyone call, tell him to call in the afternoon.
Were I you, I would try it again.
