(一)、全部倒装
1.there be 句型:可以用在这类句型中的动词除be外,还可用live,happen,exist,remain,stand等等作这类句型的谓语。如:
There are many students in the classroom.
教室里有许多学生。
Long,long ago there lived a king who loved horses very much.
很久很久以前,有一位国王,他非常喜欢马。
There happened to be nobody in the bedroom when the fire broke out.
起火的时候,碰巧房间里面没有人。
2.Here/There/Now/then+vi.(常为come,go)+主语(必须是名词)
Here comes Mary. → I can see Mary coming.玛丽来了。
There goes the bell. 铃响了。→I can hear the bell ringing.
Then came a new difficulty. 然后产生了一个新的困难。
3.out,in,up,down,away之类的副词作状语放在句首,主语比较长,也就是说主语不能是很短的人称代词,谓语为不及物动词come,go,run ,rush,etc。句式为:副词+vi.+主语(必须是名词)。如:
Out rushed the tiger from among the bushes.老虎从灌木丛里冲了出来。
In came the rose fragrance through the windows.玫瑰花香透过窗户飘了进来。
4.介词短语作状语放在句首,谓语为不及物动词,主语比较长,也就是说主语不能是很短的人称代词。句式为:介词短语+vi.+主语(必须是名词)。如:
In the middle of our school stands a high building.在学校中央有一座高楼。
5.表语放在句首,表语常为形容词、分词、副词、介词短语。要求主语比较长,也就是说主语不能是很短的人称代词。句式为:表语+系动词+主语(必须是名词)。

老师地位低下的年代一去不复返了。

South of city are two big lakes.城市的两边有两个大湖。
(二)、部分倒装
1.“only+副词/介词短语/ 状语从句”开头的句子。如:
Only then did I realize the importance of English.
直到那时我才意识到英语的重要性。
Only in this way can you make progress in your English.
只有通过这种方式你学英语才会取得进步。
2.否定词(短语)开头的句子要用部分倒装。
表示否定的副词never,nor,neither,表示半否定意义的副词hardly,few,seldom,little,含有no和not的词组by no means(决不),in no time(很快),at no time(在任何时候都不),(在任何情况下都不)not until,not only...but also,no sooner...than=hardly...when/scarcely...
when。即“否定词+助动词/情态动词+主语+其他”。如:
Never have I been in this city.我从没到过这座城市。
Little/Seldom do I watch TV.我很少看电视。
Not until I began to work did I realize how much time I had wasted.
直到我参加了工作我才意识到我浪费了多少时间。
3.以so开头,用“so+助动词/情态动词/系动词+主语”表示前面叙述的情况也适合于另一个人或物,意为“也,同样,也如此”。表示前面叙述的否定情况也适合于另一个人或物,用“neither/nor+助动词/情态动词/系动词+主语”。
Society has changed and so have the people in it.社会变了,人也变了。
注意:
1)当so表示对前句内容的肯定、符合,或进一步强调前面所说的情况,或者赞同前面的说法时,应用自然语序。意为“的确,正是”。
—Tom works hard.汤姆工作很卖力。
—So he does and so do you.的确如此,你也是。
2)倒装部分的助动词、情态动词、连系动词的时态和形式要与前句相一致。
If you don’t go,neither/nor shall I.(If you don’t go,I shall not go.)你不去,我也不去。
注意:表示前面的多种情况也适合于另一人或物,或者既有肯定又有否定情况或涉及到不同类型的动词时可用:It is the same with sth./sb.或So it is with sth./sb.句型。
She does well in English,but is poor in maths.So it is with Lucy.
她英语学得好,但数学学的差,露茜也是如此。
4.由as引导让步状语从句要用部分倒装或前置。句式为:表语/状语/动词原形+as+主语+其他。如:
Clever as he is,he doesn’t study well.虽然他很聪明,但他学习不好。
Child as he is, he knows a lot.虽然他是个孩子,但他懂得不少事情。
Much as I like it,I won’t buy it.虽然我非常喜欢它,但我不买。
Try as she might, she failed.虽然她试过了,但还是失败了。
注意:表语前的名词无形容词修饰时冠词要省略
5.在so...that从句中,如果so+adj./adv.放在句首,其主句要倒装。
So loudly did he speak that everyone could hear him.
他讲话声音足够大,以至于每个人都能听得见。
6.如果虚拟条件句的谓语含有were,should,were可以把if省略而将这三个词放于条件句主语前构成倒装。
If it hadn’t been for their help,we couldn’t have finished the work on time.
=Hadn’t it been for their help,we couldn’t have finished the work on time.
要不是由于他们的帮助,我们不可能按时完成那项工作。
If there should be a flood,what would we do?
=Should there be a flood,what would we do?
要是发了洪水,我们该怎么办呢?
7.频度副词及短语often,always,nowand then ,many a time ,everyother day等放在句首时有时也倒装。
