where 引出的倒装句

《警惕,高考英语陷阱》中有这样一道题:

Little Jim is going to spend his holiday in Paris, _________ lives his uncle.

A. which                  B. who                     C. where                  D. that

【分析】许多人一看到空格后的谓语动词lives,就以为空格处一定要填一个作主语的词,从而误选B或D。其实,此题的最佳答案应是C,where lives his uncle 为倒装词序,此句可改为 and there lives his uncle 或 and his uncle lives there。类似的如:

He was led to a dark corner, where sat his old father. 他被引进一个黑暗的角落,他的老父亲坐在那儿。

Towards evening we reached the village, where lived her parents. 到傍晚的时候,我们到了那个村庄,她的父母就住在那儿。

At last we found the spot he told me, where lay a dead dog. 最后我们找到了他告诉我们的那个地点,那儿躺着一条死狗。

为便于理解,请比较下面的倒装句:

Next to it stood a pile of paper cups. 它旁边有一堆纸杯。

In the doorway stood a man with a gun. 门口站着一个手持一枝枪的男人。

In the corner of the room stood a big old chair. 屋角儿放着一把旧的大椅子。

On a perch beside him sat a blue parrot. 在他旁边的栖木上栖着一只蓝色的鹦鹉。
