本文由跨考考研張帥老師就和大家談?wù)?a href="http://bugaw.cn/kaoyan/english/">考研英語(yǔ)長(zhǎng)難句中的倒裝這一特殊結(jié)構(gòu)。

　　其實(shí)英語(yǔ)中的“倒裝”一般指的是句子中主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)在位置上的顛倒，正常情況下，謂語(yǔ)一定要放在主語(yǔ)的后面，比如：I like watching the romantic movies in my spare time. He is a famous teacher in this university. 這兩個(gè)句子里，謂語(yǔ)like跟在主語(yǔ)I后面，同樣，is跟在he后面。

　　但在一些特殊的語(yǔ)法規(guī)則下，主謂的位置會(huì)發(fā)生變化。比如下面這兩個(gè)句子：

　　In the mountain lives the old man。

　　Only in the mountain does the old man live。

　　顯然這兩個(gè)句子里都存在謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞出現(xiàn)在主語(yǔ)old man前的結(jié)構(gòu)，那么這就是所謂的倒裝。但是我們也會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這里有不同，第一個(gè)句子倒的是lives;而第二個(gè)句子倒的是助動(dòng)詞does,而真正的謂語(yǔ)live依然在主語(yǔ)the old man 的后面。所以第二個(gè)句子是倒裝嗎?那和第一個(gè)句子的倒裝種類(lèi)一樣嗎?

　　其實(shí)，在英語(yǔ)中最常見(jiàn)的倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)從大的方向就兩種：全倒裝和半倒裝，在這里上面的第一個(gè)句子就是全倒裝，而第二個(gè)句子就是所謂的半倒裝;共同點(diǎn)都是倒謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，但是倒裝的部分有區(qū)別。全倒是把整個(gè)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞包括它對(duì)應(yīng)的助動(dòng)詞形式全部放在主語(yǔ)前：lives 的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞其實(shí)是live (動(dòng)詞本身)+ does(對(duì)應(yīng)的第三人稱(chēng)形式);而半倒裝只是把謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞對(duì)應(yīng)的助動(dòng)詞倒到主語(yǔ)的前面，而謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞本身位置不發(fā)生變化，正如上面的Only in the mountain does the old man live。

　　我們先要分清動(dòng)詞本身與它對(duì)應(yīng)的形式，如下列舉：(以動(dòng)詞watch為例)

　　watch--- do

　　watched--- did

　　watches--- does

　　has/have watched--- has/have

　　had watched--- had

　　can watch --- can

　　搞清了所謂的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞以及對(duì)應(yīng)的助動(dòng)詞形式，那么全倒裝和半倒裝的問(wèn)題就解決了大半，剩下的問(wèn)題就是什么時(shí)候全倒，什么時(shí)候半倒。下面我們把常見(jiàn)的全倒裝和半倒裝的規(guī)則進(jìn)行一下整理：

　　1. 全倒裝：

　　—— 謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞放置在主語(yǔ)之前

　　An old man lives in the city center。

　　= In the city center lives an old man。

　　A temple stands on the mountain。

　　= On the mountain stands a temple。

　　強(qiáng)調(diào)句中的地點(diǎn)，方向的副詞或狀語(yǔ)時(shí)需要全倒裝!

　　1) up, down, away, in, out, off , under 等置于句首時(shí);

　　In came a number of boys and girls talking and laughing。

　　一群孩子邊說(shuō)邊笑走了進(jìn)來(lái)。

　　2) Here，there，now, then, thus, hence 置于句首時(shí)而主語(yǔ)不是人稱(chēng)代詞時(shí);

　　There goes a bus。

　　一輛公車(chē)從那邊開(kāi)過(guò)來(lái)。

　　2. 半倒裝：

　　(1)句首出現(xiàn)否定詞 never, nor, seldom, little, hardly, scarcely, rarely, few等

　　I never trust you。

　　= Never do I trust you。

　　He seldom believes the information from the Internet。

　　= Seldom does he believe the information from the Internet。

　　(2)否定詞組在句首

　　He no longer works for the money, but for the personal development。

　　= No longer does he work for the money, but for the personal development。

　　常見(jiàn)詞組：On no account, at no time, by no means, in no case, under no circumstance, in no way,on no account, on no consideration, no longer, not only等。

　　(3) only+狀語(yǔ)/狀語(yǔ)從句在句首

　　= Only in this way can we achieve the goal。

　　(a) Only recently did linguists begin the serious study of languages that were very different from their own。

　　(b) Only when the meeting was over was he able to meet his friend。

　　(4) so 或so引導(dǎo)的短語(yǔ)放在句首要部分倒裝

　　He saw the film. So did she。

　　- She is a student。

　　- So am I。

　　He ran so fast that we couldn’t catch up with him。

　　= So fast did he run that we couldn’t catch up with him。

　　= So loudly did she speak that everyone could hear her clearly。

　　Nonstop waves of immigrants played a role, too — and so did bigger crops of babies as yesterday’s “baby boom” generation reached its child-bearing years。

　　(5)讓步狀語(yǔ)從句的倒裝

　　Although I am young, I can live by myself。

　　= Young as I am, I can live by myself。

　　= Young though I am, I can live by myself。

　　Although he is a child, he has learned to earn a living。

　　= Child as he is, he has learned to earn a living。

　　= Child though he is, he has learned to earn a living。

　　= Though as I like you, ……

　　Odd though it sounds, cosmic inflation is a scientifically plausible consequence of some respected ideas in elementary-particle physics, and many astrophysics have been convinced for the better part of a decade that it is true。

　　特殊句型

　　Hardly …when…

　　No sooner…than…

　　一……就……

　　No sooner(Hardly) had we reached home than (when) it began to rain。

　　No sooner had he arrived at the station than the train began to leave。

　　以上就是英語(yǔ)中常見(jiàn)的倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)，大家只要把倒裝的概念以及規(guī)則搞清楚，然后把主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)的位置轉(zhuǎn)化成原來(lái)的位置，就可以了。
