倒装句的用法

丘北二中

【学习目标】掌握倒装句的用法（倒装Inversions）

一、定义：英语句子的自然顺序是主语在前,谓语在后。把谓语动词放在主语之前,就叫倒装结构。如果全部谓语放在主语之前, 叫全部倒装; 如果只把助动词或be 动词放在主语之前就叫部分倒装。

二、具体用法

全部倒装

1.用于there be 句型。

There are many students in the classroom.

2. 用于“here (there, now, then) + 不及物动词+ 主语的句型中, 或以out, in, up, down, away 等副词开头的句子里面,表示强调。

Here comes the bus.

There goes the bell. Now comes our turn.

Out went the children.

代词作主语时, 主谓语序不变

Here it is.

In he comes.

3.当句首状语是表示地点的介词词组时,也常引起全部倒装。

South of the city lies a big steel factory.

From the valley came a frightening sound.

Under the tree stands a little boy.

4. 表语置于句首时, 倒装结构采用“表语＋连系动词＋主语”的结构

Present at the meeting were Professor White, Professor Smith and many other guests.

部分倒装

1. 用于疑问句

Do you speak English?

2. 用于省略if的虚拟条件句

Had you reviewed your lessons, you might have passed the examination.

3. 用于“形容词(或名词、动词)＋as (though)”引导的让步状语从句。

Pretty as she is, she is not clever.

Try as he would, he might fail again.

Money as they had, they don’t know how to spend it.

4. 用于no sooner

… than, hardly

… when 和not until的句型中。

No sooner had she gone out than the class began.

Not until the teacher came did he finish his homework.

5. 用于never, hardly, seldom, scarcely, little, at no time, not only, barely,

rarely, little, not a bit 等否定词开头的句子里。

Never shall I do this again.

At no time can you say “no” to the order.

Little do I dream I would see you here

6. 用于only开头的句子(only位于句首,修饰副词、介词短语或状语从句)

Only in this way can you learn English well.

Only when he told me did I realize what trouble he was in.

7. 用于so, nor, neither 开头的句子,表示重复的内容。此句谓语应与前句谓语的时态形式一致。

He has been to Beijing. So have I.

Jack can not answer the question. Neither can I.

8. 在so / such that 的结构中,若so 置于句首,则句子部分倒装

So difficult a problem is it that I can’t work it out.

Such a noble person is he that people all respect him.

9.如果直接引语后注明引语是什么人所说的, 主语是名词时, 用倒装结构。主语是代时, 一般不用倒装结构。

“Let’s go,” said the man / he said.

10.用于某些祝愿的句子。

May you succeed.
