倒装句是英语中一种重要的句子结构,也是历年高考考查热点。
一、完全倒装
将整个谓语提到主语之前的称为完全倒装。常见的情况有:
1. 表示方位(如here,there)和方向的副词(如up, down, out, in, away)或then等置于句首时,句子的谓语是become, go, run, follow等表示位置移动的动词,而且主语又是名词时,需把谓语动词置于主语之前,即完全倒装。
注:(1)此类倒装句有时具有进行意义,但不能用进行时的形式。
e.g.√There goes the bell.
×There is going the bell.
(2)若主语是人称代词,一般只将副词放在句首,主语仍置于动词之前,主语和谓语位置不倒装。
e.g. In he came and the meeting began.
e.g. John opened the door. There _______ he had never seen before.
A. a girl did stand B. a girl stood
C. did a girl standD. stood a girl
解析:D 表示方位的副词there位于句首,且句子的主语是名词时,句子用完全倒装。
2. 表示地点的介词短语置于句首,为了保持句子平衡或起强调作用,主谓语实行完全倒装。
e.g. At the foot of the mountain _______.
A. a village lieB. lies a village
C. does a village lieD. lying a village
解析:B 表示地点的介词短语at the foot of the mountain置于句首,该句要用完全倒装结构。
3. 某些作表语的形容词、分词放在句首时,句子需要完全倒装。
e.g. Present at the meeting were Professor White and many other guests.
二、部分倒装
将谓语的一部分(即情态动词、系动词或助动词)提到主语前的称部分倒装。如果句中没有情态动词、系动词或助动词,谓语只是一个实义动词,就要在主语前加助动词do, does或did,主语后的实义动词用原形。常见的情况有:
1. 主句倒装
(1)当hardly…when…, no sooner…than…(一……就……)句型置于句首时,倒装在hardly和no sooner所在的主句中进行,且hardly和no sooner后的谓语要用过去完成时,而when, than后面的从句不能倒装。
e.g. Hardly _______ our work when the storm broke.
A. we had finishedB. had we finished
C. did we finishD. we finished
解析:B hardly…when…也属含否定意义的连词,位于句首时句子要用倒装语序。
(2)当only +状语从句位于句首时,倒装部分要放在主句,而不是从句上。
e.g. Only when he reached the tea-house _______ it was the same place he’d been in last year.
A. he realizedB. he did realize
C. realized heD. did he realize
解析:D 此处Only引导状语从句when he reached the tea-house前置,主句中主谓要部分倒装。
e.g. Only after they had discussed the matter for several hours _______ a decision.
A. they reachedB. did they reach
C. they reachD. do they reach
解析:B 此处only修饰状语从句after they had discussed the matter for several hours前置,主句中主谓要部分倒装。再结合句子时态可知应该用一般过去时。
(3)当so…that, such…that结构位于句首时,so, such所在的句子要用倒装语序,而that后的从句不用倒装语序。
e.g.—Did you see who the driver was?
—No, so quickly _______ that I couldn’t get a good look at his face.
A. did the car speed by
B. the car speed by
C. does the car speed by
D. the car speeds by
解析:A 在“so +形容词/副词+ that分句”结构中,将“so +形容词/副词”置于句首以示强调时,其后的主谓语应使用部分倒装语序。
(4)在not until +从句置于句首的倒装句中,倒装在主句中进行,until从句中不需要倒装。
e.g. Not until he left his home _______ to know how important the family was for him.
A. did he beginB. had he begun
C. he beganD. he had begun
解析:A 当“not until +从句”置于句首时,主句要用部分倒装。因begin发生在left之后或同时发生,故排除选项B。
2. 从句倒装
(1)在if引导的虚拟条件句中,若谓语动词含有were, had或should时,可将if省略,把从句中的were, had或should移置主语前,构成倒装形式。
e.g. _______ fired, your health care and other benefits will not be immediately cut off.
A. Would you beB. Should you be
C. Could you beD. Might you be
解析:B 根据句意可知,前面应是一个与将来事实相反的虚拟条件句,从句省略if, should提前,表示委婉语气。
(2)在as引导的让步状语从句中,as从句一般放在主句之前,倒装的方式是把从句的表语、状语或动词原形置于句首。若表语是名词,前置时要省略冠词。
e.g. Try _______ she might, Sue couldn’t get the door open.
A. ifB. when
C. sinceD. as
解析:D 本句中try放在句首,动词提前,是倒装形式,所以选择as。
e.g. _______, he talks a lot about his favorite singers after class.
A. A quiet student as he may be
B. Quiet student as he may be
C. Be a quiet student as he may
D. Quiet as he may be a student
解析:B 在as 引导的让步状语从句中,若提置句首的表语是名词时,该名词前无冠词修饰。
3. 并列句的倒装
(1)当not…only…but also…连接两个并列分句且包含否定意义的not only置于句首时,not only后的分句要进行部分倒装,而but also引导的分句不用倒装语序。
e.g. Not only _______ the radio without permission, but he also damaged it.
A. he borrowedB. does he borrow
C. he had borrowedD. did he borrow
解析:D not only引导的是句子,因此要用倒装语序。
(2)当neither…nor各引导一个句子时,两个句子都要用倒装语序。
e.g. Neither _______ to me, nor _______ me.
A. he wrote; he telephoned
B. did he write; he telephoned
C. did he write; did he telephone
D. he wrote; did he telephone
解析:C 此处neither和nor各引导一个句子,因此两句都要用倒装语序。
(3)以so, neither, nor开头的句子,表示前面所说的内容也适用另一个人或物时要用倒装语序,表示肯定用so,表示否定用neither或nor。
e.g. Bill wasn’t happy about the delay of the report by Jason, and _______.
A. I was neitherB. neither was I
C. I was eitherD. either was I
解析:B 由前一分句结构可知,此处应用neither引出后一分句且句子要用倒装语序。
4. 简单句的倒装
(1)当具有否定意义的副词或副词词组如rarely, never, little, hardly, seldom, nowhere, by no means, in no case /way, at no time等位于句首时,句子要用部分倒装。
e.g. —How was the televised debate last night?
—Super! Rarely _______ so much media attention.
A. a debate attracted
B. did a debate attract
C. a debate did attract
D. attracted a debate
解析:B rarely属含否定意义的副词,位于句首时,句子要用倒装语序。
(2)当only +作状语的单个副词或副词短语置于句首时,句子要用部分倒装语序。
e.g. Only then _______ how much damage had been caused.
A. had she realizedB. she realized
C. did she realizeD. she had realized
解析:C 此处only修饰的是状语then,且位于句首,因此句子要用倒装语序。
三、其它情况的倒装
1. 在表示愿望的感叹句中,要使用倒装语序。
e.g. May our country become rich and strong! 祝我们国家繁荣昌盛。
e.g. Long live the People’s Republic of China. 中华人民共和国万岁。
2. 在there be句型及其类似结构中,按语法需要谓语动词全位于主语之前。
e.g. There stands a bridge across the river. 河上有座桥。
e.g. There seems to be still some elements undiscovered yet. 似乎还有一些元素没被发现。
