高考英语中最可能考的四种倒装

一、否定型倒装

所谓否定型倒装,指的是将含有否定意义的副词置于句首时,其后句子要用部分倒装。具体说来,这类倒装又有以下几个小类:

1. 将否定副词never, seldom, rarely, little, hardly, scarcely, nowhere 等置于句首时,其后引出部分倒装。如:

Hardly had the performance begun when the lights went out. 演出刚开始就停电了。

Little does he realize how important this meeting is. 他不怎么明白这个会议的重要性。

Never has there been such an effort to save whales from extinction. 如此抢救鲸鱼,以使其免于灭绝,是从来没有过的。

2. 将 no sooner…than…结构中的 no sooner置于句首时,其后引出部分倒装。如:

No sooner had we left the house than it began to rain. 我们刚离开家就开始下雨了。

No sooner had we reached the airport than the plane took off.  我们刚到机场,飞机就起飞了。

3. 将 not…until…结构中的 not…结构置于句首时,其后引出部分倒装。如:

Not until we lose our health do we realize its value. 等到失去了健康,才明白它的价值。

Not until I had read your letter did I understand the true state of affairs. 直到我看过你的信,我才了解事实真相。

4. 将 not only…but (also)…结构的not only…部分置于句首时,其后引出部分倒装。如:

Not only did we lose our money, but we were nearly killed. 我们不但丢了钱, 而且几乎丧了命。

Not only did he speak more correctly, but he spoke more easily. 不仅他讲话更正确,而且讲得也较不费劲了。

5. 将no longer结构置于句首时,其后引出部分倒装。如:

No longer did he feel disappointed, but happy and hopeful. 他不再感到沮丧,而是高兴,充满希望。

6. 将not (a)…结构置于句首时,其后引出部分倒装。如:

Not a single word did she say. 她连一声也没有吭。

Not a soul was there to show us the way. 没有一个人给我们指路。

7. 将含有否定词的介词短语置于句首时,其后引出部分倒装。如:

At no time did he lose his self-control. 他始终没有失去控制力。

On no accounts must this switch be touched. 这个开关是绝 不能触摸的。

In [Under] no circumstances will I lend money to him. 无论如何我也不会再借钱给他了。

注:in no time(立即,马上)位于句首时,其后无需用倒装语序。如:

In no time he worked out the problem. 他马上就算出了那道题。

C. was this city                                          D. this city was

 

 

 

二、only型倒装

当“only+状语”位于句首时,其后句子要用部分倒装。如:

Only by shouting was he able to make himself heard. 他只有叫喊才能让别人听到他。

Only when we landed did we see how badly the plane had been damaged. 我们只是在着陆之后才看到飞机损坏的严重程度。

The pilot reassured the passengers. Only then did I realize how dangerous the situation had been. 飞机驾驶员要乘客们放心,这时我才明白刚才的情况有多危险。

【典型考题】(答案分别为DC)

1. Only then _________ how much damage had been caused.

A. she realized                                           B. she had realized

C. had she realized                                     D. did she realize

2. Only after my friend came _________.

A. did the computer repaired                      B. be repaired the computer

C. was the computer repaired                     D. the computer was repaired

特别说明:有时命题者不是利用位于句首的“only+状语”来考查倒装,而是倒过来,利用给定的倒装结构来考查对only的选择。如下面一题(答案选A):

_________ by keeping down costs will Power Data hold its advantage over other companies.

A. Only                     B. Just                    C. Still                         D. Yet

 

三、so型倒装

这类倒装主要见于以下两种情形:

1. 当副词so后接形容词或副词位于句首时,其后要用部分倒装。如:

So cold was the weather that we had to stay at home. 天气太冷,我们只好呆在家里。

So fast does light travel that we can hardly imagine its speed. 光速很快,我们几乎没法想象它的速度。

So sudden was the attack that we had no time to escape. 袭击来得非常突然,我们来不及逃跑。

2. 当要表示前面提出的某一肯定的情况也同样适合于后者,通常就要用“So+助动词+主语”这种倒装结构。如:

You are young and so am I. 你年轻,我也年轻。

She likes music and so do I. 她喜欢音乐,我也喜欢。

If he can do it, so can I. 要是他能做此事,我也能。
