12月22日语法学习:四种容易忽视的倒装
[color=darkred]1. as引导让步状语从句时的倒装[/color]as作“虽然”解,引导让步状语从句时,必须将表语、状语或动词原形提到as前面。此时,要注意两点:①若提前的表语是没有形容词修饰的单数可数名词,要省略不定冠词;②若提前的是动词原形(多为不及物动词),与之连用的通常是may, might, will, would等,且这些词都要保留在原来的位置上(主语后);③though有时也可像as这样使作倒装。如:
Child as he is, he knows a lot.
虽然他是小孩,但却很懂了。
Much as I like you, I couldn’t live with you.
虽然我很喜欢你,但我不能和你一起生活。
Try as he might, he couldn’t open the door.
虽然他试过几次,但仍不能把门打开。
[color=darkred]2. Such is life之类的倒装[/color]
这类句子中的 such 其实为表语,真正的主语是其后的 life。如:
Such were his words.
这就是他所说的话。
[color=darkred]3. 表示祝愿的句子的倒装[/color]
May you succeed!
祝你成功!
Long live the People’s Republic of China!
中华人民共和国万岁!
[color=darkred]4. 以频度副词开头引出的倒装[/color]
以always, usually, often, now and then, many a time, every day等频度副词位于句首,且表示强调时,用部分倒装;但若不强调时,也可不用倒装。如:
Often did we warn him not to do so.
我曾常常警告他不要那样做。
Often he walked.
他过去经常步行。
Then did I throw myself into a chair, exhausted.
这时我累得一下就坐在椅子上了。
Then I went back to my own room.
于是我回到自己的房间去。
