巧记倒装句的用法（一）：

巧记：倒装句中，除了几种情况使用全倒装外，其它的均采用（一般疑问句形式）的部份倒装；

A. 采用一般疑问句形式倒装的情况如下：

①only放在句首，强调状语（副词，介词短语或状语从句等），全句语序要一般疑问句形式的部份倒装，如：

原句：We can get in touch with them only in this way.（划线部份倒装后将变成一般疑问句）

倒装句：Only in this way can we get in touch with them （划线部份为一般疑问句） 

注意：only放在句首，后面是主语时，语序不必倒装。

Only Mr Wang knows about it .

②带有否定意义的词放在句首，语序一般疑问句形式的部份倒装。常见的词语有： not , never , seldom , scarcely , barely , little , at no time , not only , not once , under on condition , hardly … when , no sooner …than ……等。　

Little did I think he is a spy （划线部份为一般疑问句）.

　　我一点也没想到他是一个间谍。

Hardly had I reached home when it began to rain .

No sooner had I entered the room than the phone rang .

③用于so开头的句子，表示重复前面相同的内容，意为“也怎么样”。另外，在结果状语从句句型so …that …中，如果强调so…放在句首，主句需要部分倒装。

原句：She was so excited at the news that she couldn't say a word(划线部份倒装后将变成一般疑问句）

倒装句：So excited was she at the news that she couldn’t say a word .

听到这个消息，她是如此激动，以致于一句话也说不出来。

练习题：

1, I received his mother’s telephone call at eleven. ＿＿that he was badly hurt in an accident yesterday.

    A. Then did I know     B. Only then I knew

    C. Only then did I know   D. Only then knew I

解析：only修饰句子的状语（介词短语、修饰动词的副词、状语从句）位于句首时，句子的主谓部分倒装（一般疑问句形式的倒装）。

本题空格处句意应为：只有到那时我才知道……,故此句中only修饰时间状语then，要位于句首，则剩下的部份应为一般疑问句,故选C。

2, ＿＿can you find out how many chickens there are!

     A. Counting them           B. By counting them

     C. Only by counting them   D. Only have you counted them

解析：only修饰句子的状语（介词短语、修饰动词的副词、状语从句）位于句首时，句子的主谓部分倒装（一般疑问句形式的倒装），故答案选C。

3. His mother had talked to him for many minutes while he was watching TV, but ＿＿＿＿.

    A. a little did he hear      B. little did he hear

    C. little heard he        D. a little heard he

解析：此题中a little不是否定词，则位于句首时不倒装，排除A，D（A，D用的是倒装形式）；

little是个否定词，且位于句首，则用倒装，而且是一般疑问句形式的倒装，故只能选B。

4. During the war, ＿＿＿＿but also he lost his wife and his child.

    A. not was his job in the lab taken away

    B. not only was his job in the lab taken away

    C. not merely his job in the lab was taken away

    D. not just was taken away his job in the lab

解析：not only. . . but also连接两个并列分句，且not only位于句首时（not是否定词，故位于句首要用部份倒装），该分句主谓部分倒装（这种倒装也是用的变一般疑问句的方法）,故答案只能选B。

5. By no means ＿＿＿ to our plan for the trip.

     A. will she agree      B. she will agree

     C. agrees she        D. will agree she

解析：表示否定意义的介词短语在句中作状语置于句首时，句子的主谓部分倒装（一般疑问式形式的倒装），这样的介词短语有：by no means, at no time, in no way, not in the least等；本题by no means位于句首，故句子采用一般疑问句形式的倒装，则答案选A。

6. They went into a small house but ＿＿＿.

     A. no persons did they find

     B. not a person found they

     C. not a person did they find

     D. not a person they found

解析：“not a (an)＋可数名词的单数形式”提前到句首时，句子要用部分倒装。注意：not a(an)(any)=no{引入语法：句首为否定或半否定的词语，如no, not, never, seldom, little, hardly, at no time, in no way, not until… 等，句子的主谓部分倒装(小窍门：看看这种倒装是不是相当于我们变一般疑问句的方法)}

7. ＿＿＿that we couldn’t catch up with him.

     A. So fast he ran       B. So fast did he run

     C. So fast ran he       D. Such fast did he run

解析：在so. . . that的句型中“so＋形容词或副词”提前到句首时，主句主谓部分倒装（一般疑问式形式的倒装）,如：So heavy is the box that he cannot carry it.
