倒装句的语篇功能

(Textual Functions of English Inversion)

An inverted sentence is a sentence in which the predicate (verb) comes before the subject (noun).

An inverted sentence has the following kinds of textual function:

话题导入(topic-introducing)功能、情境设定(situation-setting)功能、焦点凸显(focus-highlighting)功能、焦点对比(focus-contrasting)功能、语篇的衔接与连贯(textual cohesion and coherence)功能等。

1.话题导入功能

话题导入功能就是运用一定的句法手段为语篇提供一个话题,即语篇将要谈论、说明或叙述的人或事。即将某人或某物作为新信息置于句末,为语篇导入一个话题,以供下文谈论之用。例如:Three score and nine years old was thered-bearded king, Frederick Barbarossa. He wasby right the master of Germany. He hadsubdued Italy and had been crowned in theimperial city of Rome. Throughout Europe his name was known and feared; in his owncountry he was the hero of heroes.(《西方传说故事选》)

这是一则故事的首段。第一句就使用了一个倒装句。与这一倒装句相对应的常式句是Thered-bearded king, Frederick Barbarossa was threescore and nine years old.就信息结构而言,倒装句的信息焦点为the red-bearded king, FrederickBarbarossa,而常式句的信息焦点则是three scoreand nine years old;再从语篇的建构和发展来看,采用倒装

手段,把thered-bearded king, Frederick Barbarossa 置于句末,使之成为信息焦点,不仅为语篇的发展导入了所要谈论的话题,而且使整个语篇的前后衔接更加紧密。这一点可以从倒装句引出的话题the red-bearded king, Frederick Barbarossa 同下文的三个he 和两个his之间所形成的照应关系(anaphora)中得到很好的证明。

2.情境设定功能

倒装句的情境设定功能就是为语篇引入一个时间范围或空间范围,使其能够在这一情境内叙述将要发生的事件,从而保证语篇的顺利发展。

It was a dark September morning. There was a storm at sea. A ship had beendriven on a low rock off the shores of theFarne Islands. It had been broken in two by thewaves, and half of it had been washed away. The other half lay yet on the rock, and those ofthe crew who were still alive were clinging toit. […]

Could any one save the poor, half-drowned men who were there?On one of the islands was a lighthouse;and there, all through that stormy night, GraceDarling had listened to the storm.

[…]

In the darkness of the night, above thenoise of the winds, she heard screams and wildcries. When daylight came, she could see thewreck, a mile away, with the angry water allaround it. She could see the men clinging tothe masts. “We must try to save them!” she cried. “Let us go

out in the boat at once!”

倒装句On one of the islandswas a lighthouse 的前置成分on one of theislands 与上文中的the Farne Islands 具有衔接关系,是已知信息,而后置的主语a lighthouse则是以信息焦点方式为下文所设定的空间情境,即地点。这一语篇正是以a lighthouse 为情境参照而继续展开的。Grace Darling 所听到的、看到的和想要做的等都是在这一空间情境范围内发生的。

3.焦点凸显功能

所谓焦点凸显功能是指在语篇建构中倒装句的运用可以把交际者想要传递的重要信息置于句末,使之成为信息焦点而得到突出。例如:The beggar made no answer. Hegrasped his staff with a firmer grip and gazedacross the hall where the lofty stairwaythat led to the queen’s chambers. Down thestairs came Pennelope, stately and beautiful,with her servants and maids around her.

被置于倒装句句首的成分down the stairs是可推知已知信息。Down the stairs 可从the lofty stairway that led to the queen’schambers 推知;而被置于句末的Pennelope, stately and beautiful,with her servants and maids around her则是新信息,是交际者要刻意凸显的信息焦点。

4 .焦点对比功能

倒装句的焦点凸显功能是把新信息作为信息焦点突出出来,而倒装句的焦点对比功能则是使用两个倒装句,把两个成分并置于句末,使之形成强烈的对比性焦点而突出之。例如:

Five, six, seven years passed by, and then strange news were told in Alba Longa. Rhea Silvia, it was said, had escaped from hertemple prison. She had gone away with anunknown warrior who was never seen exceptwhen dressed in a coat of mail and fully armed. Some said that this warrior was Silvanus, theprotector of all cattle; but most believed that hewas Mars, the mighty lord of war andbattles.[…]

Great was the excitement in Alba Longa, and great was the alarm of the false kingAmulius. All through the land close search wasmade for Rhea; but no sign or trace of hercould be found. “I shall never be safe while she lives,” said Amulius; and he doubled the guardsaround the city.

在此例中,Alba Longa 的居民和非法的国王Amulius听到的是同一个消息,但反应极不相同,前者异常振奋,而后者则惊慌万状。后者的惊慌还可从下文他自己的言行得到证实。为了表达他们对这同一个消息所产生的极其不同的反应,这一语篇使用了两个倒装句,将the excitement in Alba Longas和thealarm of the false king, Amulius分别置于句末,使两者形成鲜明的对比,成为对比性焦点而得到凸显。

5 .语篇衔接与连贯功能

倒装句可以用来调整已知信息和新信息的编排顺序、使语篇上下文在结构上衔接、语义上连贯,从而保证语篇信息流的畅通。例如:He looked around, and not far off, behind a clump of bushes, rose a thin columnof smoke.He put the diamond in the pocket, and walked towards the smoke. Soon he saw aqueer little hut, and at the door, upon

theground, sat a man without any legs.[.…]

In front of him was a fire, and over thefire was a spit, and on the spit was a youngkid roasting.(Rouse, The Crocodile and theMonkey)使用了五个倒装句。前置成分均为可以从上文推知的已知信息,后置成分则都是由前置的已知信息所引出的新信息。各句中的后置成分都是各自句中的述位,第2,3,4个倒装句的述位有分别转化为下一句的主位。

综上所述,在语篇建构过程中,一个倒装句不可能只起到一种语篇功能,而往往是可以同时起到不止一种语篇功能。譬如,例(1)中的倒装句不仅为语篇的发展导入了话题,而且凸显了焦点the red-bearded king, Frederick Barbaross这说明,倒装句的这些语篇功能往往共同作用于语篇建构,使语篇成为一个统一的语义整体。

英语倒装句(最全面_最简洁)

英语句子的自然顺序是主语在前,谓语在后(主语+谓语)。把谓语动词放在主语之前(谓语+主语),就叫倒装结构。如果全部谓语放在主语之前, 叫全部倒装; 如果只把助动词或be 动词放在主语之前就叫部分倒装。 基本语序(natural order): 主语+谓语+宾语(subject + predicate+ object) I love English. 完全倒装 (full inversion) 谓语+主语 Here came the headmaster. 部分倒装 (partial inversion) 助动词/情态动词+ 主语 + 动词 Nerve will I forgive you. 一、完全倒装 1. There be结构。另外,在此结构中可以用来代替be动词的动词有:exist, seem, happen, appear, live, rise, stand等。 There stood a dog before him. There exist different opinions on this question. 例题: ________ a beautiful palace ________ the foot of the hill. A. There stand; at B. There stands; under C. Stands there; under D. There stands; at 2 (1).在以here、there、now、then等副词开头的句子里。 句式:副词+vi+名词主语 “Here, There, Now, Then + come (或be,go,lie,run) + 主语" 结构。 Here comes the old lady! Then came the hour we had been looking forward to. Now comes your turn. 如果主语是人称代词,主语和谓语语序不变,不用倒装。 如:Here you are. There she comes. (2).表示方向的副词out, in, up, down等置于句首,要用全部倒装。如果主语是人称代词,就不用倒装。如: In came Mr. White. Up went the arrow into the air. Away went the boy. 题:There ________. And here ________. A. goes the phone; she comes B. is the phone going; is she C. does the phone go; does she come D. the phone goes; come she 3.当表示地点的介词词组(如on the wall, under the tree, in front of the house, in the middle of the room等)在句首时。 句式:介词短语+vi+主语(必须是名词) 如:At the foot of the hill lies a beautiful lake. East of the lake lie two towns. Under the tree was lying a wounded soldier.

倒装句难点

倒装句难点:关于复合句和并列句的部分倒装所在的位置 掌握部分倒装并不难,从此再也不必为纠结到底是“前倒后不倒”或“后倒前不倒”而抓破头皮啦。 确定倒装位置紧抓两点:1 主句所在的位置需倒装 2 否定所在的句子需倒装 主从复合句中,主句需部分倒装,例: No sooner had I reached home than the phone began to ring. So fast did he walk that I couldn’t catch up with him. Not until she saw the present did she feel happy. 并列句中,否定所在的句子需部分倒装,例: Not only do I know her,but I am also her friend. Neither have I seen him recently, and nor have I heard from him.(两个并列分句中都有否定词,故两个分句都需进行部分倒装) 没有了传统的语法选择题,倒装句真的在高考中毫无价值吗?肯定不会毫无价值,反之倒装句一定可以在高考中为我们加分。即使语法填空不考倒装,我们也可以将倒装句运用在写作中,为我们的写作加分。 除了not only…but also…的倒装句我们还有其它选择吗? 在实际的写作阅卷中,不难发现学生所用倒装句型中,使用频率最高的非not only…but also…莫属了。 Not only should we pay more attention to the balanced diets, but also we ought to regularly do exercises. 除了only in this can we…的倒装句我们还有其它选择吗? 除了以上提及的not only…but also…句型,在写作阅卷中另一种常见的倒装句就是Only+状语/状语从句置前的倒装句。 Only in this way can we protect our environment. Only when we are faced with ever-increasing pollutions, would we place more emphasis on environment protection. 要想在写作中凭借倒装句为自己的文章增加亮点,以上两个句型未免有些捉襟见肘。如何升级我们的倒装句式,让我们的倒装句从屌丝型一跃为高富帅呢?如何能够让我们能得心应手地在任何语境下都能用上倒装句呢?

强调句和倒装句讲解 与练习

强调句和倒装句 倒装是一种语法手段。 在英语中,主语和谓语的语序通常是主语在前,谓语在后。但有时谓语的全部或一部分却提到主语的前面,这种语序叫做倒装。倒装的原因,一是语法结构的需要,一是为了强调。 强调句为了使句子的某一个成分受到强调,改变句子结构。 高考重点要求: 1、掌握部分倒装,全部倒装的句型及倒装形式 2、掌握倒装句的都中使用方式 第一节知识点扫描 一、强调句 为了突出某一部分重要信息,常常借用语法中的变换句子的正常语序,将某个成分置于句首或句末,或者通过词汇手段突出句子的某个成分。 1. it 为先行词的强调结构 It was Li Ping who told me the news. (强调人时才能用who) It was in the park that I met him. (强调地点不能用where,只能用that) It was yesterday that I saw him off at the airport. (强调时间不能用when,只能用that) 2. 助动词do 的强调作用 在行为动词作谓语的句子中,常用“助动词do或did” + 谓语“动词原形”表示强调语气。 例如:She did go to see him yesterday.

We do have four lessons in the morning. 二、倒装句 句子的排列顺序,通常是主语在前,谓语在后。倒装语序,谓语在前,主语在后。陈述句一般都是自然语序,一般疑问句都是倒装语序。 例如:He speaks English.(陈述句,自然语序) Does he speak English?(疑问句倒装语序) 倒装语序: 全部倒装,整个谓语放在主语之前。 部分倒装,谓语中需要强调的是一部分放在主语之前,其他部分仍放在主语之后。 倒装语序的作用,着重强调部分放在句首,引人注目。变化句子,使句子生动活泼。 例如:The bus comes home.(自然语序) Here comes the bus.(倒装语序) 倒装句除疑问句及“there + be “句之外,陈述句为了强调谓语或谓语某个部分也常可用 倒装 句,另外so,neither,no等词经常用于对话简略答语的句首,用倒装语序避免重复。 第二节实战演练 一、复习时需注意的要点 1. 全部倒装的句型结构的主语必须是名词,如果主语是人称代词则不能完全倒 装。 例如:Here he comes.Away they went.

英语倒装句讲解

英语倒装句讲解 倒装句分为全部倒装和部分倒装 14.1 倒装句之全部倒装 全部倒装是只将句子中的谓语动词全部置于主语之前。此结构通常只用于一般现在时和一般过去时。常见的结构有: 1)here, there, now, then, thus等副词置于句首, 谓语动词常用be, come, go, lie, run等表示来去或状态的动词。例如: Then came the chairman. 那时总裁来了。 Here is your letter. 你的信。 2)表示运动方向的副词或地点状语置于句首,谓语表示运动的动词。例如:Out rushed a missile from under the bomber. 轰炸机肚底下窜出一枚导弹。 Ahead sat an old woman. 前面坐着一个老妪。 注意:上述全部倒装的句型结构的主语必须是名词,如果主语是人称代词则不能完全 倒装。例如: Here he comes. 他来了。 Away they went. 他们走开了。 14.2 倒装句之部分倒装 部分倒装是指将谓语的一部分如助动词或情态倒装至主语之前。如果句子的谓语没有助动词或情态动词,则需添加助动词do, does或did,并将其置于主语之前。 1. 句首为否定或半否定的词语,如no, not, never, seldom, little, hardly, at no time决不, in no way, not until…等。例如: Never have I seen such a performance. 从未见过如此糟糕的表演。 Nowhere will you find the answer to this question. 无论如何你不会找到这个问题的答案的。 Not until the child fell asleep did the mother leave the room. 母亲一直到孩子入睡后离开房间。 当Not until引出主从复合句,主句倒装,从句不倒装。注意:如否定词不在句首不倒装。例如: I have never seen such a performance. ---never have I seen such a performance. The mother didn\'t leave the room until the child fell asleep. ---not until the child fell asleep the mother did leave the room. 典型例题 1)Why can\'t I smoke here? At no time___ in the meeting-room A. is smoking permitted B.smoking is permitted C. smoking is it permitted D.does smoking permit 答案A. 这是一个倒装问题。当否定词语置于句首以表示强调时,其句中的主谓须用倒装结构。这些否定词包括no, little, hardly, seldom, never, not only, not until等。本题的正常语序是Smoking is permitted in the meeting-room at no time. 2)Not until the early years of the 19th century ___ what heat is.

倒装句用法总结归纳 一、部分倒装: 1.否定副词位于句首时的倒装 在正式文体中,never, seldom, rarely, little, hardly, scarcely, no sooner, no longer, nowhere等含有否定意义的副词若位于句首,则其后要用部分倒装: I shall never forgive him. / Never shall I forgive him. 我永远不会宽恕他。 He seldom goes out for dinner. / Seldom does he go out for dinner. 他很少出去吃饭。 He little realizes how important this meeting is. / Little does he realize how important this meeting is. 他不甚明白这个会议的重要性。 注意: (1) 对于not…until句型,当not until…位于句首时,其后的主句要用倒装语序: He didn’t leave the room until the rain stopped. / Not until the rain stopped did he leave the room. 雨停了之后他才离开这房间。 (2) 某些起副词作用的介词短语,由于含有否定词,若位于句首,其后要用部分倒装: On no accounts must this switch be touched. 这个开关是绝不能触摸的。 (3) 但是,in no time(立即,马上)位于句首时,其后无需用倒装语序: In no time he worked out the problem. 他马上就算出了那道题。 2.“only+状语”位于句首时的倒装 当一个状语受副词only的修饰且置于句首时,其后用部分倒装语序: Only then did he realize that he was wrong. 到那时他才意识到他错了。 Only in this way are you able to do it well. 你只有用这种方法才能把它做好。 3.“so+adj. / adv.”位于句首时的倒装 副词so后接形容词或副词位于句首时,其后用部分倒装: So cold was the weather that we had to stay at home. 天气太冷,我们只好呆在家里。 So sudden was the attack that we had no time to escape. 袭击来得非常突然,我们来不及逃跑。 4.“so+助动词+主语”倒装 当要表示前面提出的某一肯定的情况也同样适合于后者,通常就要用“So+助动词+主语”这种倒装结构: You are young and so am I. 你年轻,我也年轻。 If he can do it, so can I. 要是他能做此事,我也能。 注意: (1) 若前面提出某一否定的情况,要表示后者也属于同样的否定情况,则应将其中的so改为neither或nor: You aren’t young and neither am I. 你不年轻,我也不年轻。 She hasn’t read it and nor have I. 她没有读它,我也没有读。 (2) 注意该结构与表示强调或同意的“so+主语+特殊动词”结构的区别: "It was cold yesterday." "So it was." “昨天很冷。”“的确很冷。” "Father, you promised." "Well, so I did." “爸爸,你答应过的。”“嗯,是答应

强调句否定句倒装句

第20节强调句、倒装句 一、强调句 1、常考的强调句结构是it 引导的句子。 It is (was) 被强调部分+ that (who) + 句子其他部分。 此结构强调的成分仅限于主语,宾语和状语。 It is from the sun that we get light and heat. It was not until I had read your letter that I understood the true state of affairs. 典型例题 1)It was last night ___ I see the comet. A.the time B.when C.that D.which 答案C. 强调句的结构是:It +be +强调部分+ that (who) + 主谓句。强调句的连词只有两个,that和who。当强调的部分是人,且为句子的主语时,才用"who",其余用that。原句:My father did the experiment in the lab yesterday evening. 强调主语:It was my father who did the experiment in the lab yesterday evening. 强调宾语:It was the experiment that my father did in the lab yesterday evening. 强调时间:It was yesterday evening that my father did the experiment in the lab. (注意不用when) 强调地点:It was in the lab that my father did the experiment yesterday evening. 2)It is ten years ___ Miss Green returned to Canada. A. that B. when C. since D. as 答案C. 考点是连词用法。本题易误选为A. that. 其实本句不是强调句。若是,去掉It be…that还应是一个完整的句子。而本句去掉'It is…that',只剩下ten years Miss Green returned to Canada. 不成句。因此本句不是强调句。 It is /was +时间+ since…其中is<---> has been was <---> had been. 2、用助动词进行强调 强调句还有一种类型,就是用助动词do (did,does) 强调谓语。 She does like this horse.她的确喜欢这匹马。 Please do take care of yourself. 千万保重。 二、否定句 否定转移 1) 将think, believe, suppose, expect, fancy, imagine等动词后面宾语从句的否定词转移到主句中,即主句的谓语动词用否定式,而从句的谓语动词用肯定式。 I don't think I know you.我想我并不认识你。 I don' t believe he will come.我相信他不回来。 注意:若谓语动词为hope,宾语从句中的否定词不能转移。 I hope you weren't ill. 我想你没有生病吧。 2) 将seem, appear 等后的从句的否定转移到前面。 It doesn't seem that they know where to go. 看来他们不知道往哪去。

英语倒装句百科

主语和谓语是句子的核心,它们之间有两种语序: 一是主语在谓语之前称为自然语序(Natural Order); 二是主语在谓语之后则称为倒装语序(Inverted Order)。 而倒装语序中又有完全倒装(Full Inversion)和部分倒装(Partial Inversion) 完全倒装(Full Inversion):又称"全部倒装",是指将句子中的谓语动词全部置于主语之前。此结构通常只用于一般现在时和一般过去时。 部分倒装(Partial Inversion):指将谓语的一部分如助动词或情态动词倒装至主语之前,而谓语动词无变化。如果句中的谓语没有助动词或情态动词,则需添加助动词do, does或did,并将其置于主语之前。 英语句子的倒装一是由于语法结构的需要而进行的倒装,二是由于修辞的需要而进行的倒装。 前一种情况,倒装是必须的,否则就会出现语法错误;后一种情况,倒装是选择性的,倒装与否只会产生表达效果上的差异。 一、表示强调: 倒装句最突出、最常见的修辞效果就是强调,其表现形式如下: 1.only +状语或状语从句置于句首,句子用部分倒装。 例子: Only in this way can you solve this problem. 只有用这种方法,你才可以解决这个问题。 Only after he had spoken out the word did he realize he had made a big mistake. 只有当他已经说出那个字后才意识到自己犯了个大错误。 2. hardly, in no way, little, scarcely, seldom, never, no more, no longer, not, not only, no sooner, not only … (but also),not until… 等具有否定意义的词或词组位于句首,句子用部分倒装。 例子: No sooner had I got home than it began to rain. 我刚到家就下起了雨。 Seldom do I go to work by bus. 我很少乘公共汽车上班。 Not until twelve o'clock did she go to bed last night . 她昨晚十二点才上床睡觉。 3. so / such...that结构中的so或such位于句首可以构成部分倒装句,表示强调so /such和that之间的部分。 例子:

强调句-倒装句

读语篇学语法——强调句与倒装句 Alaska, which was called Russian America before it was sold to the United States, joined the Union as the 49th state in 1959. Alaska is now the largest of all the 50 states of the USA.①It was in 1867 that President Andrew Johnson’s Secretary of States(国务卿), William H. Seward, bought Alaska from the Russians at the cost of $7.2 million. The buying of the northern land seemed at first something foolishly done.②Not only was Alaska difficult to reach, but it was also hard to live in, and it appeared to be of no importance in time of war. ③Besides there are volcanoes (火山)there as Alaska lies on the Pacific “ring of fire”. In Alaska large treeless areas are covered with snow all the year round. For these reasons the buying of Alaska was called “Seward’s Folly(蠢事)” at that time. However, in 1896, gold was found in Alaska, and people poured into the land. Then other important natural resources were discovered, including oil. But now most people visit Alaska in order to see the endless beauty of nature that the northern land discloses to them.④For example, there are about 11,000 islands in Alaska. And in a certain area of Alaska the sun doesn’t set for 82 days every year. 强调句:顾名思义,强调句就是对句子的某一成分进行强调,以加强语气或引起重视。 英语中常见的表示强调的方式有以下三种: 1. 用助动词do(一般现在时), does(一般现在时,主语为第三人称单数形式)和did(一般过去时)来强调谓语动词。如: 1)The girls do look pretty today. 2)The little girl does look nice in that green dress today. 3)The boys did have a good time last night. 从上述结构不难看出,强调谓语动词时只有两种时态——一般现在时和一般过去时。 2. 固定句型:强调句的句型主要是:It is / was … that / who / whom…。该句型可以用来强调除谓语动词以外的任何成分。例如上文中的①:It was in 1867 that President Andrew Johnson’s Secretary of States(国务卿), William H. Seward, bought Alaska from the Russians at the cost of $7.2 million. 该句强调了时间状语in 1867。意思是:正是在1867年,当时担任美国总统Andrew Johnson国务卿的William H. Seward以七百二十万美元的价格从俄罗斯人手里买下了阿拉斯加。 2)It was their teacher who helped them solve the problem. 正是他们的老师帮他们解决了这一问题。 3)It was Lucy whom Tom met in the party yesterday. Tom昨天在聚会上见到的正是Lucy。 注意: ⑴该句型中的that,who和whom都不可以省略。

全部倒装

全部倒装 就是把整个谓语部分放在主语之前。注意:谓语动词的数要与后面的主语保持一致。常见于几种情况: (一).用于地点副词here, there,方位副词out, in, up, down及时间副词now, then等开头的句子里,以示强 调。 There goes the bell. Look! Here they come. 这种倒装要求:主语必须是名词。主语是人称代词时,主语和谓语语序不变。 Here it is. Away he went. Here we go 这类倒装句式一般只用一般现在时和一般过去时。 Here comes the bus. Out rushed the boys. (二).当表示地点的介词短语放句首时。注意:谓语多为be, lie, sit, stand, come, walk等不及物动词;倒装 时不需要助动词。 Under the table are three white cats. In front of the tower flews a stream. 10.Under a big tree ________, half asleep. A. did sat a fat man B. a fat man sat C. did a fat man sat D. sat a fat man (三)there放在句首时,要用倒装句式。 在“there + be”结构中的谓语动词有时不用be , 而用表示类似“存在”观念的其他不及物动词。如:live, stand, come, lie, flow, enter, rise 和appear等。 There came shouts for help from the river. There lies a large wheat field in front of the house. Many years ago there lived an old man in the wooden house. (四).表语置于句首时,倒装结构为"表语+系动词+主语"。 (1)形容词+系动词+主语 Present at the meeting was Mr. Green, a headmaster. (2)过去分词+系动词+主语 Hidden behind the door were some naughty children. Gone forever are the days when the Chinese people had to use foreign oil. (3)介词短语+系动词+主语 In front of the playground is a newly-built house. (五).有时由于主语较长,谓语很短,为保持句子平衡,或为了强调表语或状语,或使上下文紧密衔接时。 They arrived at a house, in front of which sat an old man. (六).在一些表示祝愿的句子里。 Long live the Communist Party of China! May you all be happy. 练习: 16. So excited _____ that he couldn't say a word. A. he seemed B. did he seem C. was he seeming D. he did look 17. Little ______ when 1 took the trip where it would lead me. A. have I known B. had I known C. do 1 know D. did I know 18. —— Have you ever seen anything like that before?

倒装句的用法总结

倒装句的用法总结 今天给大家带来倒装句的用法,让我们一起来学习吧。下面就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。 倒装句的用法 倒装有两种: 将主语和谓语完全颠倒过来,叫做完全倒装(Complete Inversion)。如:In came a man with a white beard. 只将助动词(包括情态动词)移至主语之前,叫做部分倒装(Partial Inversion)。如:Only once was John late to class. 英语句子的倒装一是由于语法结构的需要而进行的倒装,二是由于修辞的需要而进行的倒装。前一种情况,倒装是必须的,否则就会出现语法错误;后一种情况,倒装是选择性的,倒装与否只会产生表达效果上的差异。下面*就拟从其修辞功能谈谈倒装句的用法。 一、表示强调:

倒装句最突出、最常见的修辞效果就是强调,其表现形式如下: 1. only +状语或状语从句置于句首,句子用部分倒装。 eg.Only in this way can you solve this problem. 只有用这种方法,你才可以解决这个问题。 eg.Only after he had spoken out the word did he realize he had made a big mistake.只有当他已经说出那个字后才意识到自己犯了个大错误。 2. not, little, hardly, scarcely, no more, no longer, in no way, never, seldom, not only, no sooner等具有否定意义的词或词组位于句首,句子用部分倒装。 eg. No sooner had I got home than it beg.an to rain. 我刚到家就下起了雨。 eg. Seldom do I go to work by bus. 我很少乘公共汽车上班。 3. so / such...that结构中的so或such位于句首可以构成部分倒装句,表示强调so /such和that之间的部分。 eg.So unreasonable was his price that everybody startled. 他的要价太离谱,令每个人都瞠目结舌。
