第3课

倒装:倒装有全部倒装和部分倒装。

谓语部分所有单词都放在主语前是全部倒装。谓语的一部分放在主语的前面是部分倒装。

谓语中的一部分通常是指:1、系动词;2、助动词;3、情态动词。

全部倒装的五条原则:

1. There be句型(表示有);

2. 以There或now开头的句子,且句子谓语动词为come或go;

There you go again. 你又去那里了。

3. 以Here开头的句子,且句子谓语动词为系动词be;Here you are. 拿去。

4. 以副词out, in, up, down, away开头的句子;

在2、3、4前提下,如果句子的主语是代词则用陈述句语序。

5. 以状语(常见的是地点状语)开头的句子。

部分倒装的六条原则:

1. so放在句首时表示承前肯定,这个句子用部分倒装;

nor, neither放在句首时表示承前否定,句子也用部分倒装;

2. 省略了引导词if 的虚拟条件从句,可以把从句中的had, should, could, were中的任何一个提到从句最前面的位置,构成部分倒装;

3. as, though表示“尽管”时引导从句,从句中的表语可以置于引导词之前构成部分倒装;

系动词后面的部分就是表语,形容词、名词、名词性短语可以置于系动词之后。

例如:She is beautiful. They are students.

四级考试中出现的是由动词的过去分词转变的形容词作表语的形式。

26. _B_ as it was at such a time, his work attracted much attention.

A Being published B Published C Publishing D To be published

当题干是as引导一个从句,且as前为一个空格时他表示的就是尽管,空格处要填的就是表语。

being published 正在被出版;to be published 将要被出版。

此句恢复正常语序应为:As it was published at such a time …

4. 表示否定含义的单词或短语放在句首,句子用部分倒装;

常见的一些表示否定含义的单词:never, little, few, hardly (… when), scarcely (… when) ;

seldom 难得,不常;nowhere 哪里都不。

常见的一些表示否定含义的短语:in no way 决不;on no account 决不;

under no circumstances 在任何情况下都不。

5. only + 状语放在句首,句子用部分倒装;(如果only去掉就是全部倒装)

43. Only under special circumstances _C_ to take make-up tests.

A permitted are freshmen B freshmen are permitted

C are freshmen permitted D are permitted freshmen

freshmen 新生;make up for 弥补,补偿;make-up tests 补考(缓考)。

6. 注意两个表达形式:come what may 无论发生什么情况;say what you will 畅所欲言。

-------------------------1991-06-------------------------

强调句式的补充内容:被强调部分是疑问词时的情况。

60. When I try to understand _C_ that prevents so many Americans from being as happy as one might expect,it seems to me that there are two causes.

A why it does B what it does C what it is D why it is

prevent sb. from doing sth. 妨碍(阻止)某人做某事。

强调部分本为:it is what that prevents so many …

又因为句中有疑问词,应写为:what is it that prevents so ...

但强调句式在句中作宾语成分,故正确写法为:what it is that …

50. I like watching TV _C_ to the cinema.

A more than to go B than going C more than going D rather than to go

than 除构成固定短语外就要与比较级搭配,不会单独出现;rather than + 动词原形;

平行结构,遇到平行结构时应做的两步:

1 找出连接词,2 使要填部分与已给出的对应部分形式完全一样。

51. I appreciate _D_ to your home.

A to be invited B to have invited C having invited D being invited

appreciate + 动名词(不能加动词原形,不能加句子)。

A you to keep B your keeping C that you keep D that you will keep

your keeping 动名词的复合结构。you keeping 也是正确的。
