(四)倒装结构
倒装是指句子成分不是按主语在前、谓语在后的正常语序排列,而是将谓语或谓语的一部分移到主语之前。倒装是一种修辞手段,目的是为了强调。倒装分为部分倒装和全部倒装,考试多为部分倒装。考生应掌握什么情况下需要倒装,并对倒装后的句子能够认出来,避免做题时候的盲目和迷茫。
一. 用全部倒装的情况
全部倒装一般是存在以下列副词开头的句子中,全部倒装的方法是把句子的主谓语序颠倒过来,把谓语移到主语前面:
1)出于修辞需要,表示方向的副词:out, down, in ,up, away, on。如:
Down jumped the burglar from the tenth floor when he heard someone shouted at him. Up went the plane
2)出于习惯用法:here, there, now, thus, hence, then.如:
Now is your turn. There goes the bell.
Here is a ticket for you
There existed a certain doubt among the students as to the necessity of work
注意:here,there用于倒装结构时主语一般为名词,如果是人称代词则不需要倒装
“ where is the cup?” “Here it is!”
Here you are.
There he comes.
3)有时主语较长,为了使句子平衡,避免头重脚轻,主谓要全部倒装。这种情况多出现在主系表结构中。如:
Less important than ever is developing a meaningful philosophy of life.
In between these two extremes are those people who agree with the jury system as a whole, but feel that some changes need to be implemented to improve its effectiveness.
二. 采用部分倒装情况
部分倒装一般是把句子谓语的一部分(主要是助动词或系动词)放到句子主语前,构成部分倒装,而全部倒装则把句子的谓语(包括实义动词)都放在主语前
1.下列否定词及含有否定意义的词组修饰状语时,若臵于句首,句子的主谓要部分倒装:
