　　谓语动词放在主语之前的这种语法现象称为倒装。从倒装的形式来看，可分为全部倒装(full inversion)和部分倒装(partial inversion)两种。前者是指整个谓语置于主语之前，而后者仅是指助动词、情态动词或be 动词等功能置于主语这前。

　　一、全部倒装

　　1、句首为there be, stand, lie, exist, remain, appear, seem, come 等时，引出全部倒装。

　　There stands a stone bridge across the river.

　　There stands an old pine tree on the summit of the mountain.

　　2、句首为状语方位词或表示地点的介词短语：

　　Then from the portable radio in the corner came the announcer’s voice.

　　从角落里的便携式收音机里传来了播音员的声音。

　　At his side lay Eva Brown. 在他的身旁躺着的是爱娃.布劳恩。

　　3、以 here, there, now, then等开头的句子，位于常用 be, come, go, begin, follow 等，引出倒装：

　　There goes the bell. 铃响了。

　　Here comes the bus. 汽车来了。

　　Now come your turn. 现在轮到你了。

　　但是，如主语是代词而不是名词时则不发生倒装。

　　4、在表示动作的简短句子里，为了生动，可把副词放于句首引出倒装。

　　Out rushed the dog from the gate. 一条狗从大门里嗖地一声窜了出来。

　　Up went the rocket into the sky.

火箭嗖地一声飞上了天空。

　　但：Away they went.

　　5、在表达祝愿的句子里：

　　Long live the friendship between American and Chinese people!

　　中美人民的友谊万岁！

　　May you succeed! 祝你成功！

　　6、在强调表语时

　　Worst of all were the humiliations. 最令人难以忍受的是羞辱。

　　Such is the case. 情况就是这样。

　　二、部分倒装

　　1、省略 if 的虚拟条件句中

　　Had I known what was going to happen，I would never have left her alone.

　　如果我当时知道可能发生的事的话，我就不会撇下她一个人在那里了。

　　Were there no air or water, there would be no life in the world.

　　没有空气和水，世界上就不会有生命。

　　2、在以 so(肯定)和 neither, nor(否定)的句子中

　　He didn’t fear new ideas, nor did he fear the future. 他不怕新想法，也不怕未来。

　　I’ve had some good ideas, so have other men. 我有些新的想法，别人也会有啊。

　　Distrust can be contagious, but so can trust. 不信任有传染力，同样信任也具有传染力。

　　3、当句首状语为否定词或带有否定意义的词语时，如never, little, often, not only, not until, hardly, scarcely, seldom, no sooner ... than …, in no way, at no time, under no circumstances, by no means, in no case.，采用部分倒装。

　　Little does he care about money. 他很少关心钱。

　　Not until recently did I know what he had done. 直到最近我才知道他所做的事。

　　4、句首状语由 only+副词，only+介词短语，only+状语分词时

　　Only yesterday did he find out that his watch was missing. 直到昨天他才发现表丢了。

　　Only in our country can science serve the interests of the people.

　　只有在我们国家科学才能服务于人民的利益。

　　5、在强调宾语时

　　Still greater contributions should we make to our socialist construction.

　　我们应该为社会主义建设作出更大的贡献。

　　Useful chemical fertilizer can we make from the waste liquid.

　　从废弃液体中我们能提取有用的化学肥料。

　　6、在某些句型中

　　a. 以as 引出的让步状语从句

　　Poor as he was, he was honest. 他尽管贫穷，但很诚实。

　　Poor as I am, it is beneath me to steal. 我虽然穷，还不屑于去偷。

　　Much as I admire him as a writer, I don’t like him as a man.

　　他作为作家我虽然敬慕他，但作为人我不喜欢他。

　　Try as he may, he never seems able to do the work satisfactorily.

　　尽管他很努力，然而其工作却不令人满意。

　　b. 连词不位于句首的某些让步从句(把动词原形置于句首)

　　Object though you may, they will go on as usual. 尽管你反对，他们仍然我行我素。

　　c. 在某些相当于让步从句的固定结构中，动词置于句首

　　Be it right or wrong, we’ll still go. 无论对错，我一如既往。

　　d. 在 so ... that 的结构中, so 位于句首

　　So fast does the light travel that it is difficult for us to imagine its speed.

　　光传播的很快我们无法测量其速度。

　　So loudly did he speak that he was heard upstairs.

　　他说话的声音很高连楼上的人都听得见。

　　四、倒装练习详解

　　1.【答案】B。

　　【解析】too(也)和so(同样，以同样的方式，一样地)常用于肯定句中；either用于否定句或者疑问句中，但不使用倒装结构，故B为正确答案。

　　2.【答案】D。

　　【解析】此句中“but”是并列连词，连结两个并列句，因而 “but” 前面应是一个分句，选项A可排除。状语 “many a time” 放在句首，句子要倒装。选项D是正确的。

　　3.【答案】B。

　　【解析】由于此处缺状语，故D的语序不对。A缺少连词C项as引导原因状语从句与主句意义正好相反。B项为让步状语从句，把被强调部分放在句首，此处as可用though来代替。

　　4.【答案】B。

　　【解析】 neither, nor, so位于句首,主谓部分倒装。谓语只取与上句一致的助动词(或情态动词),其它谓语部分都省去。

　　5.【答案】A。

　　【解析】表示 “一……就” 有以下表达：1. hardly (scarcely, barely)…when/before 2. no sooner…than。这些句子只用于过去时，主句动作因发生在从句动作之前故用过去完成时。倘若 hardly, scarcely, no sooner和barely在句中则采取正常语序，但当它们位于句首时，主句的主谓语要部分倒装;

　　6.【答案】C。

　　【解析】这是省略连词if 的表示将来虚拟的倒装结构。根据所讲过的表示将来的虚拟句的结构：should + do或 were to do ，故首先应该排除A和D，而B则表示进行的虚拟机构，因而正确的选项应该是C。

　　7.【答案】A。

　　【解析】B. Before have I never 不能用倒装语序，排除。C. Have never I,语序错误。D. I never have,never位置错误。A. Never before have I,否定副词never置于句首，句子语序倒装，结构正确，为正确答案。

　　8. 【答案】A。

　　【解析】by no means 带否定意义，放在句首时句子部分倒装。

　　9.【答案】D。

　　【解析】本题考点是倒装。so great提前，句子部分倒装，因此选D。

　　10.【答案】B。

　　【解析】根据句意和时态，前半句应为“If it had not been for your help”。当虚拟条件句的谓语动词含有were, had, should 时，可以省略if, 将were, had, should 移至主语的前面。
