倒裝可分為"全部倒裝"和"部分倒裝"。句子是全部倒裝還是部分倒裝往往取決于位于句首的詞語。因此,弄清具有倒裝要求的標(biāo)志詞是解題的關(guān)鍵。
一、全部倒裝
將整個謂語提到主語之前的稱為全部倒裝。常見的有:
1. 用于"there(here,now,then)+不及物動詞+主語"的句型中,或以in,out,down,up,away等副詞開頭的句子里,以示強調(diào)。如:
There goes the bell.
注意:當(dāng)上面的主語是人稱代詞時,盡管副詞位于句首,主謂語序不倒裝。
2. 表示方位意義的介詞短語或副詞短語位于句首作狀語,謂語動詞為be、表示"位于、存在"的動詞或"位置移動"的單個不及物動詞時。如:
From the valley came a frightening sound.
3. 作表語的形容詞、分詞、介詞短語放在句首時。如:
Gone are the days when they could do what they liked to the Chinese people.
二、部分倒裝
將謂語的一部分(即情態(tài)動詞、系動詞或助動詞)提到主語前的稱部分倒裝。如果句中沒有情態(tài)動詞、系動詞或助動詞,謂語只是一個實義動詞,要在主語前加助動詞do, does或did,主語后的實義動詞用原形。常見的有:
1. 當(dāng)"so (such)...that..."結(jié)構(gòu)中的so或such位于句首時,構(gòu)成部分倒裝句。

A. Not only they brought B. Not only did they bring
C. Not only brought they D. Not only they did bring
答案: B
注意:not until引導(dǎo)的從句位于句首時,not until引導(dǎo)的從句不倒裝,主句倒裝。
3. only位于句首,修飾副詞、介詞短語或狀語從句時,要用部分倒裝。注意:only修飾狀語從句時,主句中倒裝,從句中不倒裝;only修飾的不是狀語時,則不用倒裝語序。
