第九章 倒装结构
倒装结构共有五种
# 第一节 否定倒装
句子中有否定副词、否定副词短语、否定状语从句时要倒装
- 否定副词:never、hardly、scarcely、rarely、seldom、little
- 否定副词短语:by no means、in no way、on no account、under no circumstances、in no situation
- 否定状语从句:not until + 主语 + 动词(直到...)、only when + 主语 + 动词(只有到...的时候)、only after + 主语 + 动词(只有到...之后)
其他需倒装的结构
only + 介词 和 only then 都可以使用倒装结构
Only by doing so can you succeed.
not only ... but (also) ... 、not merely ... but (also) ... 、not only ... but ... as well、not merely ... but ... as well,四个句型等价
not a + 单数可数名词,译为“连一个...都没有”
Not a soul did I see over there.
hardly、scarcely,译为“几乎不”,但在 hardly/scarcely + any + 名词 结构作主语时,则不倒装
no where
# 第二节 so/such 倒装句
在 so...that... 和 such...that... 句型中,若将 so 或 such 提到句首,后面的句子要倒装
So helpful is he that we all like him.
Such lazy students are they that they have no hope of passing the exam.
# 第三节 地点副词倒装句
地点副词倒装的三个句型
主语 + 不及物动词 + 地点副词/地点副词短语 倒装为 地点副词/地点副词短语 + 不及物动词 + 主语
主语 + be动词 + 过去分词 + 地点副词/地点副词短语 倒装为 地点副词/地点副词短语 + be动词 + 过去分词 + 主语
主语 + be动词 + 现在分词 + 地点副词/地点副词短语 倒装为 现在分词 + 地点副词/地点副词短语 + be动词 + 主语
注意:地点副词倒装句的主语必须是普通名词或专有名词,代词作主语时不能倒装
He stood there. 此句就不能倒装
# 第四节 完全倒装句
结构:主语 + be动词 + 形容词 倒装为 形容词 + be动词 + 主语
完全倒装句的主语通常是泛指所有的人或物,主语可译为“凡是...的人或物”
A man who often helps others is praiseworthy. -> Praiseworthy is a man who often helps others.
# 第五节 as 取代 though 的倒装法
though/Although + 主语 + be动词 + 形容词 句型中,将形容词移至句首,再用 as 取代 though
Though he is nice, I dislike him. -> Nice as he is, I dislike him. -> As nice as he is, I dislike him.
though/Although + 主语 + be动词 + 名词 句型中,将名词移到句首,再用 as 取代 though,但名词若为单数可数名词,一定要去掉不定冠词
Nice boy as he is, I dislike him.
though/Although 引导的从句中有副词的,也可将副词提到句首,再用 as 取代 though
though/Although 引导的从句中若无副词,可在句首添加 much,再用 as 取代 though
though/Although 引导的从句中若有may,可将其后的动词置于句首,再用 as 取代 though
Though you may try, you still can't make him change his mind. -> Try as you may, ...
as 作副词连词时,等于because,若该从句结构为“主语 + 一般动词”,有如下变化
As he lives here, ... -> Living here as he does, ...
