托福語法技巧:某些副詞之后的倒裝

字號:

某些副詞和副詞短語,主要是一些含有限定或否定意義的副詞和副詞短語,為了表示強調(diào)可放在句首,這時后面應跟動詞的倒裝(即疑問)形式。這類副詞或副詞短語中最重要的有:
    hardly ever
    on no account
    hardly…when
    only by  in no circumstances
    only in this wayExamda.com
    neither/nor
    only then/when
    never  scarcely everExamda.com
    no sooner…thanExamda.com
    scarcely…when
    not only
    seldomExamda.com
    not till
    so
    nowhere
    例句如:
    —I haven’t got a ticket.
    —Neither/Nor have I.
    —我沒有票。
    —我也沒有。http://ks.examda.com
    I had never before been asked to accept a bribe.相當于:
    Never before had I been asked to accept a bribe.
    以前從來沒有人試圖向我行賄。
    They not only rob you,they smash everything too.相當于:
    Not only do they rob you,they smash everything too.
    他們不僅搶劫你,而且砸爛所有的東西。
    He didn’t realize that he had lost it till he got home.相當于:
    Not till he got home did he realize that he had lost it.
    一直到了家,他才發(fā)覺那東西丟了。
    This switch must not be touched on any account.相當于:
    On no account must this switch be touched.
    這個開關嚴禁觸摸。   He was able to make himself heard only by shouting.相當于:
    Only by shouting was he able to make himself heard.
    他只有叫喊才能讓別人聽到他。
    He became so suspicious that…相當于:
    So suspicious did he become that…
    他變得這樣疑心,以致……   注意:在一個句子中,第二個否定動詞有時可以用nor來表達,并跟倒裝語序:
    He had no money and didn’t know anyone he could borrow from.
    He had no money,nor did he know anyone he could borrow from.
    他身無分文,也不認識任何可以借錢的人。(neither在這兒不太常用。)(關于副詞和副詞短語后跟動詞的倒裝語序和作主語的名詞的情況,如Up went the rocket<火箭直升飛起>, By the door stoodan armed guard<門口站著一名手持武器的士兵>
