倒裝(INVERSION)
一、倒裝句之部分倒裝
部分倒裝是指將謂語的一部分如助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)倒裝至主語之前。如果句子的謂語沒有助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)動(dòng)詞,則需添加助動(dòng)詞do, does或did,并將其置于主語之前。 ——部分倒裝:將情態(tài)動(dòng)詞、助動(dòng)詞、系動(dòng)詞提到主語前。
1. 含有否定意義的副詞或連詞, 如:hardly, never, not, not only…but also, little , neither…nor…, not until…,no sooner…than…, seldom ,by no means, in no time, in no case, nowhere, never before(often)等放在句首時(shí)。
Never shall I forget it. Never before have I seen such a film.
Not a single mistake did he make. Little does he care about what others think.
Hardly had I reached the bus stop when the bus started Often did we warn them not to do so.
Nowhere will you find the answer to this question. Never have I seen such a performance.
Not only was everything he had taken away from him, but also his German citizenship.
Nowhere in the world can there be such a quiet and beautiful place.
Not until the child fell asleep did the mother leave the room.
當(dāng)not until引出主從復(fù)合句,主句倒裝,從句不倒裝。注意: 如否定詞不在句首不倒裝:
I have never seen such a performance.
The mother didn't leave the room until the child fell asleep.
Not until the child fell asleep did the mother leave the room
以否定詞開頭作部分倒裝:
Not only…but also, Hardly/Scarcely…when, No sooner… than等,要倒裝:
Not only did he refuse the gift, he also severely criticized the sender.
Hardly had she gone out when a student came to visit her.
No sooner had she gone out than a student came to visit her.
注意:只有當(dāng)not only… but also連接兩個(gè)分句時(shí),才在第一個(gè)分句用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)。如果置于句首的Not only… but also僅連接兩個(gè)并列詞語,不可用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu):
Not only you but also I am fond of music。
2. so, neither, nor作部分倒裝
把副詞 so 放在句首,表示前面所說的情況,也適合于另一人或物。 肯定句用so,否定句用neither/nor, 用這些詞表示"也"、"也不" 的句子要部分倒裝。句式如下: So + be ( have, 助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)動(dòng)詞) + 主語。
Neither (Nor) + be ( have, 助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)動(dòng)詞) + 主語。
He likes rice very much. So do I. Tom can speak French. So can Jack.
I have never been there, and neither has he. If you won't go, neither will I.
注意: So it is/was with sb./It’s the same with sb.
1/ He can speak Chinese and can’t speak Japanese. So it is with his wife.
2/You are a good student and work hard. So it is with Xiao Ming.
3/ You like watching TV. So it is with my brother and me.
區(qū)分: so do I/ so I do/I do so
1/---He is a good boy. --- So he is.(強(qiáng)調(diào)作用,表確實(shí),的確)
2/She hoped that he would search the room carefully and he did so.(指代前面提到的同一動(dòng)作或事情)
注意:當(dāng)so引出的句子用以對(duì)上文內(nèi)容加以證實(shí)或肯定時(shí),不可用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)。意為"的確如此":
Tom asked me to go to play football and so I did.
---It's raining hard. ---So it is.
3. only在句首倒裝的情況:
Only in this way, can you learn English well.
Only after being asked three times did he come to the meeting.
如果句子為主從復(fù)合句,則主句倒裝,從句不倒裝:
Only when he is seriously ill does he ever stay in bed.
4. as, though”盡管” 引導(dǎo)的倒裝句
as / though引導(dǎo)的讓步從句必須將表語或狀語提前(形容詞, 副詞, 分詞, 實(shí)義動(dòng)詞提前)。但需注意: 句式:(1) 表語/狀語+ as + 主語+ 系動(dòng)/實(shí)動(dòng),主句。
(2)動(dòng)原 +as + 主語+ will/may , 主句。
①句首名詞不能帶任何冠詞。
②句首是實(shí)義動(dòng)詞, 其他助動(dòng)詞放在主語后。如果實(shí)義動(dòng)詞有賓語和狀語,隨實(shí)義動(dòng)詞一起放在主語之前:
Child as he is, he knows much English.
Much as he loves his son, he is strict with him.
Try as I might, I still couldn’t work it out.
Try hard as he will, he never seems able to do the work satisfactorily.
注意:讓步狀語從句中,有though,although時(shí),后面的主句不能有but,但是 though 和yet可連用。
5. 其他部分倒裝
1) 用于so/such…that句型, so/such置于句首時(shí),要部分倒裝
So frightened was he that he didn’t dear to move.
So loudly do the students read their lessons that people can hear them out in the street.
Such a well-known man is he that everyone wants to take a photo with him.
So frightened was he that he did not dare to move an inch.
2) 在某些表示祝愿的句型中:
May you all be happy. May you succeed!
Long live the Chinese Communist Party.
3) 在虛擬語氣條件句中從句謂語動(dòng)詞有were, had, should等詞,可將if 省略,把 were, had, should 移到主語之前,采取部分倒裝。例如:
Were I you, I would try it again.
Were he younger (= If he were younger), he would learn skating.
Should they forget (= If they should forget) to bring a map with them, they would get lost in the woods.
Had I knew it, I wouldn’t have done it.
4) No matter how/However + adj./adv.+主語+ 謂語, 主句。
However/No matter how late it is, she often waits for him.
二、倒裝句之全部倒裝
——完全倒裝:將謂語動(dòng)詞直接提到主語前 。
就是把整個(gè)謂語部分放在主語之前。此結(jié)構(gòu)通常只用于一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)和一般過去時(shí)。注意:謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)要與后面的主語保持一致。常見于下列幾種情況:
1. here, there, now, then, thus等副詞置于句首, 謂語動(dòng)詞常用be, come, go, lie, run等表示來去或狀態(tài)的動(dòng)詞:
Then came the chairman. Here is your letter.
2. 表示運(yùn)動(dòng)方向的副詞或地點(diǎn)狀語置于句首,謂語表示運(yùn)動(dòng)的動(dòng)詞:
Out rushed a missile from under the bomber. Ahead sat an old woman.
注意:上述全部倒裝的句型結(jié)構(gòu)的主語必須是名詞,如果主語是人稱代詞則不能完全倒裝:
Here he comes. Away they went.
3. 1. 把副詞so放在句首,表示前面所說的情況也適用于另一個(gè)人或物。
I like reading English, so does he.
2. 把neither, nor放在句首,表示前面的否定內(nèi)容也適用于另一個(gè)人或物。
——I don't think I can walk any further.
——_______, let's stop here for a rest.
A. Neither and I B. Neither can I C. I don't think so D. I think so
4. 用于地點(diǎn)副詞here, there,方位副詞out, in, up, down及時(shí)間副詞now, then等開頭的句子里,以示強(qiáng)調(diào)。注意:主語為代詞時(shí),不能全部倒裝。
There goes the bell. Look! Here they come.
5. 當(dāng)表示地點(diǎn)的介詞短語放句首時(shí)。注意:謂語多為be, lie, sit, stand, come, walk等不及物動(dòng)詞;倒裝時(shí)不需要助動(dòng)詞。
Under the table are three white cats.
6. 表語置于句首時(shí),倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)為"表語+系動(dòng)詞+主語"。
(1)形容詞+系動(dòng)詞+主語: Present at the meeting was Mr. Green, a headmaster.
(2)過去分詞+系動(dòng)詞+主語 Hidden behind the door were some naughty children.

Present at the party were Mr green and many other guests.
Seated on the ground are a group of young men.

7. 有時(shí)由于主語較長,謂語很短,為保持句子平衡,或?yàn)榱藦?qiáng)調(diào)表語或狀語,或使上下文緊密銜接時(shí)。
They arrived at a house, in front of which sat an old man.
8. 在一些表示祝愿的句子里。 Long live the Communist Party of China!
倒裝句高考例題
1. The news that they failed their driving test discouraged him, _____?(2000年上海)
A. did they B. didn't they C. did it D. didn't it
答案:D
解析:句中that they failed their driving這一同位語增加了思考的難度,若不予考慮,句子結(jié)構(gòu)就顯得簡單(并消除干擾詞語fail),僅留下題干中的the news discouraged him。此外,陳述句中雖有表示含有否定意義的詞,但是個(gè)帶否定前(后)綴的詞語,附加疑問句仍需否定形式。句中含有否定意義的詞時(shí),看作是否定句,但含有否定前綴的詞不算在內(nèi)。
