倒装句精讲
一、知识点讲解
1. 什么是倒装句
倒装句是将句子中谓语或部分谓语放在主语之前的句式。英语中有两种倒装:
| 类型 | 定义 | 示例 |
|---|---|---|
| 完全倒装 | 整个谓语移到主语前 | Here comes the bus. |
| 部分倒装 | 助动词/情态动词/be动词移到主语前 | Never have I seen such a beautiful view. |
2. 完全倒装的常见情况
(1) 表示方位的副词或介词短语位于句首
常见副词:here, there, in, out, up, down, away, off 常见介词短语:on the wall, in the room, under the tree
例句:On the top of the mountain stands an ancient temple.
注意: 当主语是代词时,主谓不倒装。
Here he comes. (不能说 Here comes he.)
(2) There be 句型
There is a book on the desk. There stand many trees on campus.
3. 部分倒装的常见情况
(1) 否定词或半否定词放在句首
常见词:never, seldom, little, hardly, scarcely, no sooner, not only, not until, in no way, by no means
Never have I regretted going abroad. Not only does he speak English, but he also speaks French. Hardly had I arrived when it began to rain.
(2) "Only + 状语"放在句首
Only in this way can we solve the problem. Only when you work hard will you succeed.
注意: "only + 主语"放在句首时不倒装。
Only he knows the truth.
(3) So/Such...that 结构中 so/such 位于句首
So angry was he that he couldn't speak. Such a nice person is he that everyone likes him.
(4) As/Though 引导的让步状语从句
