Answer 1

英语语法 倒装
在英语中，主语和谓语的语序通常是主语在前，谓语在后。但有时由于语法或修辞的需要将谓语的部分或全部提到主语前面，这样的语序叫做“倒装“

倒装的种类：部分倒装---- 助动词\情态动词+主语+谓语的实义动词
全部倒装---- 谓语+主语

一. 在特殊句型中：
1.在疑问句中:
eg: Is this your cell phone number? What do you prefer?
2.在感叹句中：
eg: How happy they are! What fun it is!
3.在虚拟条件句中：
eg: If I were a bird, I could fly freely.=……
Had I known it earlier, I wouldn’t have lent him the money.
Long live peace! May our friendship be everlasting!
4.直接引语的一部分或全部放在句首时；
eg: “You should have been here earlier,” said the teacher.
“You,” said his father, “do the housework.”二. 在以下结构中用全部倒装：
1.在there be句型中；
eg: There are thousands of people gathering on the square.
There lived an old fisherman in the village.
2.在“here, there, now, thus, then+动词+主语”的句子中,(动词为be, go, come等);
eg: Now comes my turn. There goes the bell. Then came the order to leave.
3.在“out\ in, up\ down, off\away”以及表示地点的介词词组位于句首时；
eg: Away went the crowed one by one. In came a stranger in black.
Down fell the leaves. On the floor were piles of old books.
注意：若主语是人称代词，则用正常语序---- adv.+主语+谓语；
eg: Out she went. Here we are.
4.有时为了强调表语，构成“表语+连系动词+主语”结构；
eg: Lucky is she who was chosen to be a leader.
Gone are the days when women were looked down upon!

在以下结构中用部分倒装：
1.含有否定意义的adv或conj（not, seldom, little, hardly, never, rarely, nowhere, not until, not only, by no means等）位于句首时；
eg: He cannot speak an English word.----Not an English word can he speak.
I have never seen him before.----Never ……
The mother didn’t leave the room until the baby fell asleep.----Not until the baby fell asleep did the mother leave the room.
注意：not until引导的句子，主句倒装，从句不用倒装。
2.only位于句首，且修饰状语时，主句倒装；
