专业四级考试词汇语法详解十三(1)

  test thirteen

  引起倒装的前置状语

  当句首状语为否定词或带否定意义的词语时,一般引起局部倒装。这些词语常见的有:never, not for one minute, no longer, on no account, no more, nowhere else, at no time, hardly, scarcely, rarely, not for nothing等。例如:

  never have i found him in such a good mood.

  句首状语若由“only 副词”、“only 介词词组”、“only 状语分句”构成,也可引起局部倒装。例如:

  only yesterday did he find out that his watch was missing.

  以关联连词not only(but also)和so(……that)开头的句子,通常引起局部倒装。例如:

  so small was the mark that i could hardly see it.
