否定词位于句首的部分倒装问题
1、屠浩民老师在讲解比较状语从句时讲了一句话：Few things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands.说句首的few是表否定含义，那么为什么句子没有部分倒装，变为Few are things more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands.2、还是在比较状语从句中看到的一句话：In addition,far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than did their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed.这个句子than后接的部分为什么要部分倒装，把did提到their counterparts之前。3、还是这句话：In addition,far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than did their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed.如果将句中的&far&变为&little&,这样可以吗，我知道little是用来修饰不可数名词的，那是不是要变为&few&，那如果变为few，句子是不是要部分倒装为：few more did Japanese workers express dissatisfaction with......

理论可以看得懂，但是学以致用是需要一个过程的~您可以根据我上面的提问具体回答吗~谢谢！
同学你好，1. 当否定词否定主语，否定词组不含否定含义，或者句首状语的否定意义已为随后的另一名词所抵消，此 时则不需要倒装。2.& 为了保持句子平衡，或为了强调表语或状语，或使上下文紧密衔接时。 3. little 和 few不修饰比较急more，所以不能替换far。 欢迎登陆新东方在线欢迎到新东方在线论坛感谢您对新东方在线的支持和信任如您的问题未能得到妥善解决或有其他问题请访问：或联系售后客服：400 676 2300

同学你好&pre id="best-answer-content" class="reply-text mb10"&
关于倒装句
英语句子通常有两种语序：一种是陈述语序，一种是倒装语序。将谓语的一部分或全部置于主语之前的语 序叫做倒装语序。而倒装可分为二种：将整个谓语提到主语之前的叫完全倒装（full invention）；而只将be 、情态动词或者助动词放在主语之前的叫做部分倒装（partial invention）。现对英语中有关的 一些倒装句子进行探讨，并对其中相关的一些句子加以比较。
一、完全倒装
(1)在以here、there、now、then等副词开头的句子里。
1.Here hung a picture of enormous size, painted by Tintoretto,(Shaw)
2.There goes the bell.
3.Now comes your turn.
4.Then followed three days of heavy rain.
(2)在There be (exist、happen、live、appear、lie、occur、rise、seem、come、remain等)句型中。
1.There are at least thousands of people in the square.
2.There stands a tall tree in front of our school gate.
(3)在象声词或以out、in、up、down、away等副词开头的句子里。
1.Click.click went the weaving room.
2.Crackle.crackle, crackle came the gun and the young soldier felt very frightened.
3.Following the root, out rushed a big tiger from among the bushes.
4.Higher and higher flew the plane, and at last it disappeared in the clouds.
(4)当表示地点的介词词组在句首时。
1.At the foot of the hill lies a beautiful lake.
2.The soldiers ran to the building, on the top of which flew a flag.
3.East of the lake lie two towns.
4.Under the tree was lying a wounded soldier.
在上述四种句子中，如果主语为人称代词，则不需要倒装。
1.In he came and back he went again.
二、部分倒装
(1)Only在句首，修饰副词，介词词组成状语从句时。
1.only then did he find it important to get along with others.
2.Only in this way can we make great progress.
3.Only after he came back were you able to see him.
以关联连词not only...but also开首的句子或者分句也是如此。
Not only did they break into his office and steal his books, but they also tore up his manuscripts.
于句首的only，（包括连词not only...but also）只修饰（或连接）主语部分，则不引起倒装。
Only a sound body can house a sound mind.
不过请注意下面句子：
Only five of them did I see in the office.
(2)当句首状语为否定词或带有否定含义的词语时，常见的这类词或词语有not, never, hardly, seldom, hardly, scarcely 以及not until, no sooner,...then, hardly...when,...no...等。
1.Seldom had I seen such a beautiful picture.
2.Hardly had I arrived home when the phone rang.
3.Not until I began to work did I realize how much time I had wasted.
4.At no time have I said such a thing.
5.Not a finger did I lay on him.
6.To few people does such an opportunity occur.
但当否定词否定主语，否定词组不含否定含义，或者句首状语的否定意义已为随后的另一名词所抵消，此 时则不需要倒装。
1.Not a leaf had fallen from the trees though autumn was well advanced.
2.In no time the locusts came clown and started eating everything.
3.Not infrequently they go abroad.
(3)在省去if的虚拟条件从句中。
1.Should I be free this afternoon. I will come and help you with your lesson.
2.Were I in your place. I would not be fit for your job.
3.Had it not been for the captain, the ship would have sunk withal on board.
我们可以说Were it not...或者Had it not been...,但不可以说Weren&t is... 或者hadn&t it been.. .因此下列句子应视为病句。
Weren&t it for his wife&s money, he&d never be a director.
(4)在So ...that, to such...that 或者in such ...that的句型中。
1.So beautifully did they dance that the tall white Lillie peeped in at the window .(Oscar Wilde)
2.To such lengths did she go in rehearsal that two actors walkabout.
3.in such a hurry did the man rush out that he almost knocked me down.
(5)当So位于句首，表示前面所说的情况也适用于另一人（或物）时。
I trusted him completely. So would anyone who know him.
在So it is (was)wither 的句型或者当So表示&的确如此，确实是这样&，以示同意和肯定某种说法，或 者加以强调时，常常不引起倒装。
1.Jack studies German, but he doesn&t study French. So it is with Jim.
2.&It&s going to be a cold winter.&
&Yes, So the newspaper says.&
3.Li Ping studies hard So he does.
因此我们常常可看到下列这类句子。
You say Tom went to the ball yesterday, So he did, and so did I.
(6)当neither or位于句首，表示前面否定的内容也适用于另一人或物时；或者表示否定的意义在延伸的时 候。
1.&I didn&t mean what I said, you know.&
&Neither(Nor)did I&.
2.I don&t know. Neither(Nor) do I care.
注意Neither nor的特殊用法。
1.Just as I haven&t good eyes, so neither has my son, neither have my children.(当just as...,s o...用于否定句时，只用neither.)
2.If he doesn&t go, neither will I. （在if条件句后用来引起一个主句时，只能用 Neither.）
3.You can&t do it, nor can I, nor can anybody else.（连续多次否定，常用nor）。
(7)当方式状语、频度状语等提至句首时，有时也可引起部分倒装。
1.Well do I remember the day that I saw a tremble accident on that road.
2.Mary a time bas he given me good advice.
(8)有时为了平衡句子的需要，以避免头重脚轻之感。
1.Gone forever are the dark days of the old society.
2.Such are the rewards that always crown virtue,(Shakespeare)
在以上各类句型中，如果谓语动词只有系动词be，则这类句子应属于全倒装。
So small was the mark that I could hardly see it .

英语倒装句的几种情况
1. &某些副词+不及物动词+主语&的句式，需要全部倒装。常用的副词主要有：here , there , now , then , out , in , down , up , away 等，表示强调。主语是代词时，不必倒装。

最满意答案
倒装句就是将正常的陈述语序加以变化，主要作用是强调被提前的部分倒装句可分为全部倒装和部分倒装两种：一?、全部倒装谓语动词提前至主语之前为全部倒装，如：Out&came&his&guest.On&the&hill&stood&a&little&cottage&that&contained&heaps&of&hay.There&lived&an&elderly&lady&whose&husband&died&long&ago.二、部分倒装助动词或情态动词提至主语之前，谓语动词位置不变，即为部分倒装，如：Neither&could&he&see&through&your&plan.So&little&did&I&know&about&him&that&I&was&easily&taken&in&by&his&words.Doesn't&her&invitation&appeal&to&you?第一节&否定词提前倒装否定词用于句首时，句子应进行部分倒装否定词常用的有：Not&only&(but&also),&　　　　　　　Not&until(直到&..才),&No&sooner&.(than)(一&..就)&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Never/&Rarely/SeldomHardly/Scarcely&&(when)&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Few/LittleNeither/Nor&(也不)　　　　　　　&&&&&&&&&NwhereAt&no&time　　　　　　　&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Under&no&circumstances(决不)On&no&account&&&&&&&&&(决不)　　　　　　　In&no&way其中not&only,&no&sooner,&hardly,&scarcely&分别和but&(also),&than,&when搭配使用，需注意：后一组词之后的部分不进行倒装，只有否定词之后的部分倒装如：Hardly&had&I&arrived&home&when&it&began&to&rain.Not&only&was&he&able&to&enter&the&final&round&of&the&contest,&but&he&came&out&first&as&well.No&sooner&had&I&got&any&chance&to&speak&than&the&clerk&slammed&the&door&in&my&face.Seldom&does&he&travel&about.Under&no&circumstances&should&you&betray&your&own&country.此类倒装句一般出现在填空题中，需填入的是倒装部分，只要在句首见到上述的词，就应条件反射的想到用倒装句&第二节&介词、分词词组提前倒装当句子没有宾语，且主语偏长时，往往将句中作状语的介词短语或作表语的形容词短语或作表语的分词短语提至句首，引起主谓的全部倒装如：In&the&middle&of&the&river&floated&the&cluster&of&plants&that&she&had&cast.&&&Characteristic&of&an&anarchist&was&her&strong&opposition&to&the&government,&which&she&had&blamed&for&all&the&social&injustices.&&&Lying&on&the&grassland&is&a&pretty&girl&in&her&early&twenties.&第三节&副词提前倒装副词提至句首引起倒装，可分以下几种情况：1.&only&+&副词(when,&before,&if,&after等)或only+介词状语(由in,&under,&by,&on,&after等引导)提前，必须部分倒装如：Only&then&did&he&realize&how&stupid&he&had&been.&&&&&&&&Only&after&entering&the&store&did&Arthur&realize&that&there&was&danger.&Only&in&the&library&can&she&concentrate&on&her&study.&2.&often,&such,&so等副词提前，部分倒装&如:&So&diligently&did&he&work&that&he&got&hight&scores&on&the&final&exam.&&&&=He&worked&so&diligently&that&he&got&hight&scores&on&the&final&exam.&&&&Such&was&his&wish&that&the&world&would&stay&away&from&war&forever.Often&did&we&go&on&a&holiday&in&hot&summer.&注意，so的另一种倒装是表示&也&&&&&&California&relies&heavily&on&income&from&crops,&and&so&does&Florida.&&&&加利福尼亚过多的依赖于来自农作物的收入，佛罗里达也是这样　　　&&&同理，体会一下neither,&nor的倒装&&&&He&can't&dance,&neither/nor&can&I.=&I&can't,&either.&&&&他不会跳舞，我也不会。　　　&&&3.&in,&out,&down,&up,&away,&off,&here,&there,&over等副词提前，全部倒装&如：Off&got&the&staggering&gentlemen.Here&are&the&photos&I&took&at&the&seaside.&解释：此句是how&many&引导的疑问句,&缺少倒装的谓语部分,&但因主语people已出现在句首疑问词之后,&不需要再进行主谓倒装.&A&B&中的they是people的重复,&没有必要;&D&不能单独作谓语

server is oknor...是不是一定接在否定句后呢 是不是一定要放在句首才倒装 还有是不是主谓一致不能倒装？_百度知道
nor...是不是一定接在否定句后呢 是不是一定要放在句首才倒装 还有是不是主谓一致不能倒装？
1. 是一定接在否定句后，通常前面有neither，not, no, never2. 只有放在句首才倒装
那前后主语是否一定要不一致呢？
我不知道你指的是什么，可否请给出一个例句呢？
He doesn’t like music ，nor do I （和so的用法是否相同？）
这里也可以看作是在句首。
那一致也是行的咯？你看这个例句 She never saw him again，nor she heard from him.只要在句首就到装？那so呢，可以类推吗 我记得so好像一定要前后不一致
我终于明白你的意思了，nor引导的倒装句只用于同时出现如下两种情况： 一是 上句为否定句；二是该句主语与上句不一致。
谢谢回答这么多 但是还是想再问一下 那你说我上次追问的例句有问题不 它就是前后一致啊 这就是让我糊涂的地方 原句是Lucy never saw him again，nor did she heard from him
没问题，希望采纳哦
呵呵 例句是Lucy never saw him again，nor did she heard from him
你看这句话（前后一致且倒装） 到底是怎么回事 不要骂我 哈哈
如果它是对的，这句话里she应该是指除Lucy以外的女孩实际上这句话是对的，因为she可以指别的女孩呀
......够牛 不过句子根本没必要这么解释啊，为什么用she来指代呢？不过还是谢谢你

I’ve tried very hard to improve
my English. But by no means ____ with my progress.
(2006重庆)
　　A. the teacher
is not satisfied B. is the teacher not
　　C. the teacher
is satisfied D. is the teacher satisfied
［答案］ D
　　［解析］题干中的but表明其后的句子应表示与“I’ve tried very hard to improve my English.”相反的意义，
即“老师并不对我的进步感到满意”。否定主句的状语by no
means放于句首表示强调时， 主句应进行部分倒装， 而且不应再在句中加入否定词not， 据此可以排除A、 B、
C而选出D。
　　［考题2］
Little ____ that we were
watching his every move, so he seemed to be going his own way in
this business. (2007安徽)
　　A. he realized
B. he didn’t realize
　　C. didn’t he
realize D. did he realize
　［答案］ D
　　［解析］ 句首作状语的副词little本身含有否定意义， 不需另外加not， 由此排除选项B、 C；
由于句首little之后应使用部分倒装，
由此进一步排除正常语序形式的选项A而选出D。
　　［考题3］
They have a good knowledge of
English but little ____ they know about German.
(2005天津)
　　A. have B. did
C. had D. do
　［答案］ D
　　［解析］ 含有否定意义的状语little(在这里little作副词)位于分句的句首时， 主句要进行部分倒装。“they have a good knowledge of
English”这一分句采用的是一般现在时， 下划线处所表示的时态应与此一致， 故应填入do。
　　［考题4］
— Did Linda see the traffic
　　— No, no sooner
____ than it happened. (2006天津)
　　A. had she gone
B. she had gone
　　C. has she gone
D. she has gone
　［答案］ A
　　［解析］hardly/scarcely... when..., no sooner... than...
都表示“一……就……”， 前面的主句通常用过去完成时， 后面的从句通常用一般过去时， 而且当hardly, scarcely或no sooner放于句首时，
前面的主句应采用部分倒装。
　　［考题5］
Not only ____ interested in
football but ____ beginning to show an interest in it.
(2002上海春)
　　A. the teacher
all his students are
　　B. the teacher
are all his students
　　C. is the
are all his students
　　D. is the
all his students are
　［答案］ D
　　［解析］ not only...
but (also)... 连接两个并列分句并且包含否定含义的not only放于句首时， not only后的分句要进行部分倒装， but (also) 后的分句不进行倒装， 因此本题应选D。
　　［考题6］
Not until all the fish died in
the river ____ how serious the pollution was.
　　A. did the
villagers realize B. the villagers realized
　　C. the villagers
did realize D. didn’t the villagers realize
　［答案］ A
　　［解析］ not...
until... 表示“直到……才……”，
在为了表示强调而把否定主句的not
until提至句首时， 主句要采用倒装语序(until引导的时间状语从句不倒装)， 因此本题应选A。
　　［考题7］
Never before ____ in greater
need of modern public transport than it is today.
(2005上海)
　　A. has this city
been B. this city has been
　　C. was this city
D. this city was
　　［答案］ A
　　［解析］ 否定主句的状语never before放于句首表示强调时， 主句应进行部分倒装， 又因为描述的是一个与现在有关，
并对现在有影响的动作， 所以应用现在完成时， 本题应选A。
　　［考题8］
The old couple married for 40
years and never once ____ with each other.
　　A. they had
quarreled B. they have quarreled
　　C. have they
quarreled D. had they quarreled
　［答案］ C
　　［解析］ 并列句的后一分句把否定性状语never once放在了句首表示强调， 该分句应进行部分倒装， 又因为描述了一个与现在有关，
且对现在有影响的动作， 所以应用现在完成时， 本题应选C。
　　［考题9］
I finally got the job I dreamed
about. Never in all my life ____ so happy! (2000北京、
　　A. did I feel B.
I felt 　　　C. I had
felt 　D. had I
　［答案］ D
　　［解析］ 否定性状语never
in all my life放于句首时， 该句要进行部分倒装，
又因为需要表示说话人得到梦寐以求的工作之前没有这么开心过这一“过去的过去”的情况， 下划线处应采用过去完成时， 所以本题应选D。
　　［考题10］
Never in my wildest dreams ____
these people are living in such poor conditions.
(2006安徽)
　　A. I could
imagine B. could I imagine
　　C. I couldn’t
imagine D. couldn’t I imagine
　［答案］ B
　　［解析］ 否定性状语never
in my wildest dreams放于句首时， 该句要进行部分倒装， 排除选项C、 D； never本身已经表示否定， 不应再重复使用否定形式， 因此进一步排除D而选出B。
　　［考题11］
I have been living in the
United States for twenty years, but seldom ____ so lonely as now.
(2007辽宁)
　　A. have I felt
B. I had felt
　　C. I have felt
D. had I felt
　［答案］ A
　　［解析］ 否定性状语seldom位于but之后分句的句首， 该分句应该进行部分倒装， 由此排除选项B、 C； 下划线所在的分句描述现在的情况而不是描述“过去的过去”，
因此应进一步排除过去完成时形式的选项D而选出A。
