三、語法(倒裝)

出于語法結構或強調的需要，倒裝一般分為兩種，全倒和半倒：

一 全倒的情況（謂語提到主語的前面）

1 以 here,there,或out ,in,up,down,away等表示地點，方位的副詞開頭：

eg, Here comes the bus. Out rushed the children.

Away went the boy. Now comes my turn.

（注意：若主語為代詞，則不倒裝eg,Here it is./ Away she went.）

2 直接引語放在句首：

eg,”It looks as if a typhoon is coming.” said the captain.

3 地點狀語提前：

eg ,On the bench sat a little man who was trembling in the wind.

eg : Hardly had the bell rang when the children rushed out of the room.

=in no way/by no means/in no case

4表示前面所說內容也適合后者：

更好地了解環保是必要的，行動的愿望也是必要的。

eg, Without international cooperation,developing countries can’t prosper,nor will sustainable development be possible.

沒有國際合作發展中國家就不可能繁榮，可持續性發展也就不可能實現。

5 if虛擬的省略：

三 其他情況的倒裝：

1主語太長，保持平衡：

eg Present at the meeting were representatives from more than 100 coutries as well as some famous performers

2為強調，將表語或狀語提前：

eg Greatly loved in China are the English romantic poets.

So bright is the boy that they all love him.

Child as he is,he knows a lot.

Hard as he worked,he still failed.
