英语倒装 第1篇

什么时候倒装以及怎样倒装

1、here，there等地点和方向副词位于句首，用全部倒装，目的是强调状语

Here comes a bus.

来了一辆公共汽车。

正常语序：A bus comes here.

There goes the last train.

最后一班火车开走了。

正常语序：The last train goes there.

解释一下：倒装主要为了强调，强调的内容放在句首，比如强调 here 放到句首，这时就必须用倒装句，把谓语 comes 提到主语前面。像 Here a bus comes. 这种表达是错误的。

这种情况下用全部倒装，就是把所有谓语部分都移动到主语前面，谓语是comes，移动到主语前面，注意这句话的句子成分，bus 是名词，作主语，comes是(不及物)动词，作谓语，这句话没有宾语，here是副词，作状语。

类似还有back, down,off, up, in, out 等表示运动方向的副词：

Up went the rocket into the air.

火箭升上天空。

正常语序：The rocket went up into the air.

Out rushed a young lady.

一个年轻女士冲了出来。

正常语序：A young lady rushed out.

当我们表达给别人东西或确定人的位置的时候也用倒装(全部倒装)，这种倒装常常在 be 动词之后。

Here’s a cup of tea for you.

给你一杯茶。

There’s Kate.

凯特在那儿。

还有一条例外规则：当主语是代词的时候不用倒装。

He comes here. 他来了。(正常语序)

强调状语here的时候，here提到句首，而主语和谓语位置不发生变化：

Here he comes.

而不是：

Here comes he.

Here you are.

给你。

而不是：

Here are you.

2、介词短语充当的地点状语后的倒装：

此时依然用全部倒装，谓语动词一般是表示位置的动词如：lie, live, sit, stand 等或转移动词如 come, go, rise 等。

At the top of the hill stood the tiny chapel.

那座小教堂矗立在山顶上。

正常语序：The tiny chapel stood at the top of the hill.

On the ground lay some books.

地板上散落着一些书籍。

正常语序：Some books lay on the ground.

3、非谓语动词短语作表语时的(全部)倒装：

Standing beside the table was his wife.

站在桌子旁的是他的妻子。

正常语序：His wife was standing beside the table.

现在分词短语作表语。

To be carefully considered are the following questions.

需要好好考虑的是下面的问题。

正常语序：The following questions are to be carefully considered.

动词不定式短语作表语。

Buried in the sands was an ancient village.

一个古老的村庄被埋葬在这一片沙土之中。

正常语序：An ancient village was buried in the sands.

过去分词短语作表语。

以上三种情况都是全部倒装，下面的情况都用部分倒装，我们用的序号重新开始排列。

1、否定副词等之后的倒装：

这些副词如 seldom,hardly, never, rarely, little, not until 等等位于句首：

Seldom does he go out for dinner.

他很少出去吃饭。

正常语序：He seldom goes out for dinner.

部分倒装时，谓语go并没有提到主语he之前，而是在主语前增加了一个助动词does，也就是说：部分倒装没有把实义动词提到主语前面。

Hardly does he have time to listen to the music.

她几乎没有时间听音乐。

正常语序：She hardly has time to listen to the music.

Not until the rain stopped could he start his work.

雨停之后他才能开始工作。

正常语序：He couldn’t start his work until the rain stopped.

这句话是谓语由情态动词和实义动词共同构成的，部分倒装只需要把情态动词提前，而实义动词还在原来的位置。

2、only + 状语位于句首时的倒装：

Only then did he realize that he was wrong.

到那时他才意识到自己错了。

正常语序：He realized that he was wrong only then.

上面是only + 副词的例句

Only in this way are you able to do it well.

你只有用这种方式你才能把这件事做好。

正常语序：You are able to do it well only in this way.

上面是only + 介词短语的例句

Only when he returned home did he realize what had happened.

只有他到家的时候，他才能发现发生了什么。

正常语序：He realized what had happened only when he returned home.

上面是only + 从句的例句

3、so + adj./adv. 位于句首时的倒装：

So cold was the weather that we had to stay at home.

天太冷了，我们不得不呆在家里。

正常语序：The weather was so cold that we had to stay at home.

上面是so + adj.的例句

So fast does light travel that we can hardly image its speed.

光速太快了，我们几乎无法想象它的速度。

正常语序：Light travels so fast that we can hardly image its speed.

上面是so + adv.的例句

4、not only but also的倒装：

Not only do they need clothing, but they are also short of water.

他们不但需要衣服，而且还缺水。

正常语序：They need not only clothing but they also short of water.

5、关于简化的倒装：

You are young and so am I.

你年轻，我也是(年轻)。

正常句子：You are young and I am young too.

用so来代替前面提到的形容词，起到简化句子的作用。

She likes sports and so do I.

她喜欢运动，我也是(喜欢运动)。

正常句子：She likes sports and I like sports too.

用助动词do来代替前面提到的动词like，同时省略掉名词 sports，避免行文重复。

She can swim and so can I.

她会游泳，我也是(会游泳)。

正常句子：She can swim and I can swim too.

上面的句子是情态动词和实义动词一起作谓语的例子，如果有情态动词，则用情态动词，而不用实义动词，下面的表达是错误的：

She can swim and so swim I.

另一种关于简化的倒装是虚拟语气的倒装，详见订阅号下面菜单【往期目录】中查找，相对简单，恕不赘述!

以上罗列了很多倒装句的情况，我觉得下面的总结是最重要的：

1、所谓“没有买卖就没有杀戮”，我们可以借用这句话：没有强调就没有倒装，虽然这么讲并不全面，简单的理解更有助于我们看清本质。

2、我们叙述的时候大多都可以用正常语序来陈述，也就是不倒装。如果要强调，就把强调的内容移动到句首，然后就全部倒装或部分倒装构成倒装句，把强调的内容放在句首之后，如果不用倒装就是错误的句子。

3、有些倒装句已经变成了一种固定表达法，可以不用考虑倒装句的问题，比如 there be句型，还有给谁东西 here you are 等等。

4、像 so do I 这样的简化或替换的情况也该用倒装，因为如果不倒装的话，行文重复太多。在不太影响我们对句子理解的基础上，任何语言都希望尽量简化。

英语倒装 第2篇

一、 寻找完全倒装标志，巧记完全倒装句型

所谓完全倒装句型是指当某一特点内容置于句首时，将谓语动词直接提前置于该特定内容后面而构成的倒装句型，其标志通常为：

1. Here, there, in, out, up, down, away等介、副词置于句首时，应使用完全倒装句型。例如：

In came the boy.

Away flew the bird.

注意：此句型主语必须为名词，主语为代词时不能使用完全倒装句型。例如：

he rushed out. Out he rushed.

2. In front of, in the distance, to the east of 等地点状语置于句首时，应使用完全倒装句型。例如：

In the distance stands a high building.

To the east of the two hills lies a city.

二、 寻找不完全倒装标志，巧记不完全倒装句型

不完全倒装句型要求当某一特定内容出现在句首时，不能将谓语动词直接置于句首，而须在该特定内容后加上助动词。不完全倒装句型的构成常有下列标志：

1. Often, many a time, never, seldom等表示频度的副词置于句首时，应使用完全倒装句型。例如：

Seldom does he go home.

Many a time has he been to Beijing.

2. Hardly, scarcely, barely, little等主要表示否定意义的副词出现在句首时应使用不完全倒装句型。例如：

Hardly can you understand the text.

Little does he know about the news.

3. Not until + 时间出现在句首时应使用不完全倒装句型。例如：

Not until the early years of the 19th century did man know what wheat is.

Not until I began to work did I realize how much time I had wasted.

Not until all the fish died in the river did the villagers realize how serious the pollution was.

4. Hardlywhen, no sooner than(一、、、就、、、)置于句首时使用不完全倒装句型。例如：

Hardly had I got to the airport when the plane took off.

No sooner had he gone to bed than the telephone rang.

5. 表示“也”的so(用于肯定句)和neither/nor(用于否定句)出现在句首时应使用不完全倒装句型。例如：

he has passed the exam, so have i.

Do you know Jim quarrelled with his borther?

I don’t know, nor do I care.

6. Only 出现在句首修饰介词短语、副词、时间状语从句和原因状语从句时，就使用不完全倒装句型。例如：

Only in this way can you work out this question.

Only then did I realize the importance of studying English.

Only when he is free does he come to see me.

Only because he was busy did he not go there.

Only修饰主语时不能使用倒装句型。

Only teachers can use this room.

7. Not until but also结构中的not only置于句首且not only和but also后均不直接跟主语时，应使用不完全倒装句型。例如：

Not only does he study English but also French.

注意：not only but also连接两个分句的第一个分句倒装，第二个分句不倒装。例如：

not only does he study hard but also he has a kind heart.

Not only but also连接两个主语时不倒装。例如：

Not only he but also his parents have been to Beijing.

8. 当so that(如此、、、以致、、、，引导结果状语从句)结构中的so出现在句首时应使用不完全倒装句型。例如：

so fast did he run that I couldn’t catch up with him.

三、 寻找特殊倒装标志，巧记特殊倒装句型

有些倒装句型的构成不是将动词提前，也不是将助动词提前(或加助动词)，而是将句子中的某部分内容提前，这种特殊倒装句型常有下列标志：

1. 可将句型prefer to do A rather than do B(宁愿做A而不愿做B)中的rather than do B前置至句首，从而构成特殊倒装句型。例如：

rather than ride on a crowded bus, he always prefers to ride a bicycle.

2. As(尽管)引导让步状语从句时一般将按通常语序应置于句未的表语、动词或副词前置至句首，从而构成特殊倒装句型。例如：

Young as he is, he knows a lot.

注意：如果表语为单数可数名词，前置时应去掉不定冠词。例如：child as he is, he has been to many places.

Much as I want to see him, I dare not do it.

Go as you may, you can’t see him.

3. 在if 虚拟条件从句中，如果从句的谓语动词含有were, had , could, should,可将这四词提至句首，将连词if 省去，从而构成特殊倒装句型。例如：

had it been possible, would you have done it?

Were I you, I wouldn’t go.

Could I do it, I would do it.

Should it rain tomorrow, I wouldn’t go.

四、 寻找形倒实不倒标志，巧记倒实不倒句型

有些句型形式上酷似倒装句型，而实际上不是倒装句型，不要将其主谓倒瘃或其它特殊倒装，这种形倒实不倒的句型常有下列标志：

1. 感叹句中的what和how在其它句型中多用特殊疑问词，故许多同学将感叹句判断为特殊疑问句而采用倒装语序，实际上what和how 引导的感叹句应用陈述语序。例如：

what a long way it is from Beijing to London!

How beautiful a flower it is!

2. 由于带插入语的特殊疑问句仍以特殊疑问词开头，故许多同学误将此句型判断为纯特殊疑问句，从而采用倒装语序，实际上应将插入语后面的内容视为宾语从句而采用陈述语序。例如：

where do you think he has gone?

When do you know he will come?

3. 名词性从句中的what, how, when, why等词易被误认为特殊疑问词而采用疑问式倒装语序，实际上这些词为连词，引导名词性从句，故该从句应为陈述语序。例如：

when he will come is unknown to me.

No one can be sure what man will look like in a million years.

My question is where he has gone.

4. Whatever , however, 引导让步状语从句时常被误认为特殊疑问句而采用倒装语序，实际上应采用陈述语序。例如：

It is generally considered unwise to give a child whatever he or she wants.

We’ll have to finish the job however long it takes.

英语倒装句新探 第3篇

1英语倒装句类型

英语倒装分为完全倒装和部分倒装两种情况。

1.1完全倒装

完全倒装(complete inversion)是指句子的谓语动词全部提到主语之前,主语和谓语动词完全倒置。此结构通常只用于一般过去时和一般现在时的时态中。

例如:Here is the storybook you want.

Away ran the little boy.

1.2部分倒装

句子采用复合谓语动词,如果只将助动词、系动词或情态动词移至主语之前,这称之为部分倒装(partial inversion)。

例如:Only by working hard can one succeed.

Isn’t it cool!

May you be happy!

2倒装的原因

英语倒装句是非自然语序的句子结构,倒装的主要原因可分为语法原因和修辞原因。

2.1语法结构需要

因为语法结构的需要,有时需要将谓语的全部或一部分提到主语之前。此种是语法性倒装,也称之为强制性倒装。是按照语法规则的要求而必须使用的变式句。一般疑问句、特殊疑问句、反意疑问句还有选择疑问句,大部分用倒装形式。who,what, how many位于句首作主语的情况除外。

What do you like to eat?

Do you like dancing or singing?

This is a wonderful film,isn’t it?

2.2修辞原因

为了突出重要的内容,或为了生动地描写动作,或为了上下文衔接、使句子联系紧密,英语中往往采用修辞倒装。修辞性倒装也称为非强制性倒装。语法规则没有作出强制性要求, 出于修辞和交际功能的考虑,大都是由语用因素或修辞因素决定的。修辞倒装具有话题导入、情境设定、焦点凸显、焦点对比、衔接与连贯语篇功能。

2.2.1为了强调

Very grateful they are for your help.

他们非常感激你的帮助。

Only in these ways can we learn French well.

只有用这样的方法,我们才能学好法语。

2.2.2语言生动流畅

Up flew the rocket into the sky.“嗖”的一声火箭飞上了天。

Happy are those who feel contented.知足者常乐。

2.2.3为了上下文衔接、使句子联系紧密

He was born poor and poor he remained all his life.

他出身很穷,过了一辈子的穷困生活。

We’ll win through and win through we shall!

3英语多种倒装情况探析

3.1强调倒装

1)由here, there, up, down, in, out, away, now, then引导的句子,谓语是表示位置移动的动词go ,come, run和be动词,当其主语为名词时,为了强调该副词,用倒装语序。

例:Here comes the train to Shanghai.去上海的火车来了。

Down fell the leaves.树叶掉落了下来。

Then came a new challenge. 这时又产生了一个新的挑战。

但当主语是人称代词时,只可将副词置于句首,主、谓不用倒装。

Here they come. 他们来了。

In she came and the lecture began.

2)有时将宾语提到句首,表示强调。

例如:The past one can know,but the future one can only feel.

一个人可以了解过去,但只能感悟未来。

3)only修饰状语或状语从句,位于句首时,用倒装语序。

如:Only in that way can their honor be saved.

只有那样,才能保住他们的荣誉。

Only if you study harder will you be able to pass the English exam.

4)表示方式、程度、频率的副词,如well, gladly, bitterly,brightly, often, many a time等,位于句首时,用倒装语序。这类句子多出现在书面语中,日常口语中较少使用。例如:

Brightly shone the moon that night.那天晚上月亮特别亮。

Gladly would Mary accept her friend’s proposal.

玛丽很高兴接受朋友的建议。

Bitterly did she repent that decision. 她深深地悔恨那个决定。

5)表示地点的介词短语位于句首,如果谓语动词是表示存在意义的be, lie, stand, exist等句子,也用倒装语序。

例如:On the top of the hill stands a big tree. 山上有棵大树。

South of the mountain lie many tall buildings. 山南面有许多高楼。

On the floor were piles of magazines. 地板上放着一堆杂志。

3.2平衡倒装

由于主语及其定语很长而谓语又很短,为了保持句子平衡用倒装结构,有些几乎成了固定的形式,属于完全倒装。

例如:Here is...; Such is ...;Next comes ...; Then followed...;Thus ended …; Under it were written...

3.3否定或限制倒装

1)否定词或表示限定意义的词构成的倒装。将含有否定意义的副词never, little, seldom, not, no, none, nowhere, hardly,scarcely, rarely, in no time等,以及表示限定的副词only, alone等,置于句首时,句子一般要用倒装语序。Hardly ... when,scarcely ... when, no sooner ... than, not only ...but also引导句子时,将前一个分句中的主语和谓语部分倒装,后一个分句中的语序不变。如:

Seldom in my life have I met so determined a woman teacher.

一生中我很少见到如此果断的女老师。

Not a word did he say when he left. 他离开时一句话都没说。

Hardly had she got to the cinema when the film began. 她刚到电影院电影就开始了。

2) 有些短语(特别是介词短语)under/ in no circumstances,on no account, in vain, at no point, only in this way,not until等, 移到句首时,也可能用倒装语序。

例:Under no circumstances must we relax our vigilance.

在任何情况下我们都不能放松警惕。

0n no account must you give up this attempt. 你们绝不能放弃这个努力。

In vain did he try to open the locked car.

他设法打开那锁着的汽车但没有成功。

3.4重复倒装

由so, neither, nor引导的句子:

1) So +助动词or情态动词or系动词+主语,表示前面所说的情况也适用于另一个人或物。这种结构中的主语与上下文中的主语是不同的,用倒装语序,so的意义相当于in the same way,有同样的含义。例如:

She has been to America. So have I. 她去过美国。 我也去过。

I can drive a car. So can he. 我会开车。他也会开车。

如果是重复或是进一步肯定前面所说的情况,上下文中的主语相同,用自然语序,不用倒装。so的意义相当于indeed,certainly, 表示“不错”,“对了”,对别人的话做出肯定的反应。 例如:

- It was careless of you to have left your mobile phone in our classroom.

你真是粗心,把你的手机忘在我们教室里了。

-My God!So I did.天哪!确实是这样。

-Kelly has made great progress in recent two weeks.

凯莉近两周取得了很大的进步。

- So she has, and so have you. 她确实取得了很大的进步,你也一样。

2) neither或nor +助动词or情态动词or系动词+主语,表示前面所说的否定内容也适用于其他人或物。例如:

-I haven’t read that book.我没看过那本书。

-Neither/Nor have I.我也没看过。

3.5假设倒装

1)当if引导的虚拟条件从句中含有had, should或were时, 如果将if省略,则要将had, should或were提到句首,用倒装形式。如:

Were I a butterfly, I could fly freely in flowers.(=If I were a butterfly,…)

假如我是一只蝴蝶,我就能自由地在花丛中飞来飞去。

Had they come earlier, they would have seen you. (=If they had come earlier,…)

Should they decide to investigate it,we would welcome it.

如果他们决定调查此事,我们会欢迎。

2)还有在“Were it not for +宾语”,“Had it not for +宾语”结构表示的虚拟条件从句中,也用倒装语序。例:

Were it not for the Internet, we could not search for informa-tion or materials so conveniently.

3.6让步倒装

有些让步状语从句中,由as, though, no matter how, however等引导,有时也用倒装语序,主要是把表语或部分谓语提前。

1)表语提前,构成倒装。如:

Intelligent as Lily was,she had not much insight.

莉莉虽然聪明,却没有多少洞察力。

Child as he is,he speaks very fluent English.

( 名词单数提前置于句首时,不用不定冠词。)

虽然他还是一个孩子,但能讲非常流利的英语。

No matter how boring the book is,she likes to read it.

不管这本书多无趣,她都想看看。

2)副词提前,构成倒装。例如:

Attentively as we listened, we still couldn’t understand what he said.

尽管我们专心听了,但我们还是听不懂他说的话。

3)动词提前,构成倒装。例:

Try again as she may, she will not pass the test.

尽管她愿意再试,但他她还是不会通过检测。

3.7比较倒装

1)在比较状语从句和方式状语从句中的倒装。在复合句中,than和as引导的分句,如果谓语动词或表语省略,且是两个句子的主语相比较时,要用倒装语序。例如:

She will give you more than will Tom.她给你的要比汤姆多。

He is responsible a man as are you.他像你一样负责。

2)the more…, the more…句子结构中的倒装。

例:The more diligent you study, the happier you feel and the more knowledgeable you become.

你学习越勤奋,就越觉得快乐,知识就越丰富。

3.8衔接倒装

为了行文需要,使上下文连接得更紧凑些,可把某个成分提前。如有时在系表结构中,欲使句子与前文衔接得更紧密, 将表语移至句首,构成倒装。

如:He was born poor and poor he remained all his life.

他出身很穷,过了一辈子的穷困生活。

They’ll win through and win through they will.

他们会胜利,肯定他们是会获胜的。

3.9有些句型用倒装

1)表示存在的句型there be属于倒装句。

如:There are two books and a mobile phone on the desk.

桌子上有两本书和一部手机。

Perhaps there is something important in the box.

也许盒子里有重要的东西。

2)在“so…that”和“such…that”句子结构中,如果so或such位于句首时,要用倒装语序。

例:

So excited was her sister that she could not say a word.

她姐姐如此激动以至于一句话都说不出来。

Such was the mother’s anger that she lost control of herself.

妈妈如此的生气以至于不能控制自己。

3)表示惊叹或祝愿等语气的句子,可使用倒装结构。

例如:It’s a nice day,isn’t it!

May you succeed!

4)有些习惯用法也用倒装语序。

如:How goes it with you?您好吗?

What care we?管我们什么事?

Such were her last words. 她最后的话就是这样。

3.10从句中关系代词或关系副词的倒装

宾语从句中表语前置,主语从句中宾语前置,状语从句中状语前置。例如:

She could not tell where the post office was.

Whatever we have is at your service.

However fast he run, he will never catch up with the guide.

3.11非谓语动词形式+ be +主语

非谓语动词形式+ be +主语,也是倒装形式。

例:Covering the much of the earth’s surface is a large amount of water.

覆盖地球表面的大部分是水。

Also discussed were the problems we had met in our life on campus.

同时还讨论了我们在校园生活中遇到的问题。

3.12在宾语从句为直接引语的句子

在宾语从句为直接引语的句子中,当直接引语的全部或一部分位于句首时,引述分句的主语又是名词或名词短语,该引述分句常用倒装结构;若宾语从句置于主句之后,要用陈述语序。

例如:

“Help! Help! ”shouted the little boy.

如果谓语后面有宾语,主语不能放到后面去,不用倒装。

“That woman is a famous film star,”he told me in a whisper.

3.13助动词或情态动词后的原形动词

助动词或情态动词后的原形动词,有时也可能提到句子前面。

如:But however long it takes,solve it you must.

不管要用多长时间,你一定要解决这问题。

倒装句是变式句的一种,它给单一的主谓结构增添了色彩,巧妙地运用会使语意表达锦上添花。倒装句的功能充分验证了语言的变异性、商讨性和顺应性,使交际者能够在语用原则和语用策略指导下做出灵活地选择和变通而实现其交际目的。
