Partial Inversion 结果状语从句对应的so/such 位于句首引起的倒装句 当“so/such ... that ...” 结构中的so, such 连同它所直接修饰的成分共同位于句首表示强调时,主句要进行倒装(that 后面的结果状语从句不倒装)。例如: So angry was he that he couldn’t speak. 他愤怒得一句话也说不出来。 So fast does he run that he is far ahead of others. 他跑得如此快, 以至于远远领先于其他人。 To such an extent do the parents love their son that they have tried to satisfy every demand of his. 父母俩爱子爱到了如此程度, 以至于尽量满足他的任何要求。 [考题 1] So difficult ____ it to w ork out the problem that I decided to ask Tom for advice. (2006 广东) A. I did find B. did I find C. I have found D. have I found [答案] B [解析] so difficult 放于句首要引起主句的倒装, 结果状语从句中的“I decided to ask Tom for advice” 表明整句话是针对过去的(不强调与现在的关联), 不宜用现在完成时而应采用一般过去时, 因此本题应选B。 [考题2] ____ homew ork did w e have to do that w e had no time to take a rest. (2006福建) A. So much B. Too much C. Too little D. So little [答案] A [解析] 结果状语从句中的“we had no time to take a rest”意味着休息时间很少, 应先排除选项C、 D, 又由于放于句首的表语too mu ch不能引起倒装, 而且意思上也难以与全句融合, 所以进一步排除B。 3.重复倒装 当一个句子用so(在肯定句中)或 neither, nor 开头,重复上一句的部分内容,要半倒装。 “I have applied for membership in the club.” “So have I.” He is a teacher and so is his w ife. I like singing and so does Helen. Production is going up steadily, so is the people’s standard of living. She didn’t come, nor did her husband. He will not go, neither will I. Rubber is not a conductor and neither is a plastic. 4.让步倒装 让步状语从句中的倒装形式为:强调对象+as/though+主语+其它部分,强调对象可以是表语...
