引起倒裝的前置狀語
當(dāng)句首狀語為否定詞或帶否定意義的詞語時,一般引起局部倒裝。這些詞語常見的有: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.
句首狀語若由“only+副詞”、“only+介詞詞組”、“only+狀語分句”構(gòu)成,也可引起局部倒裝。例如:
Only yesterday did he find out that his watch was missing.
以關(guān)聯(lián)連詞not only(but also)和so(...that)開頭的句子,通常引起局部倒裝。例如:
So small was the mark that I could hardly see it.
