《not only but also的用法(史上最全最详细)》

Not only…but also是英语中较为常见的一个关联词组。由于它的用法比较复杂,本文拟对其用法及其使用中应注意的问题作一归纳。

一、主要用法

1.连接主语:

Not only I but also Tom and Mary are fond of watching television.

不仅我,而且汤姆和玛丽都喜欢看电视。

2.连接谓语动词

The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs.英国人和美国人不但语言相同,而且有很多相同的风俗习惯。

注意not only…but also连接的动词一般不重复,这与汉语不同。如汉语说“我不仅懂英语,而且懂俄语”,英语则说“I know not only English but also Russian”,而不说“I not only know English but also know Russian”.再如:“气体不仅改变形状,而且改变体积”,英译为“A gas changes not only in shape but also in volume.”(注意介词常重复)

3.连接宾语:

The problem for the recipient was trying to guess not only who the sender was, but also what his secret feelings might be.收信人不仅要尽力猜出是谁的,还要推测寄信人内心有什么想法。

4.连接宾语补足语:

Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.浅色和鲜艳的颜色不但使人看了高兴,也会使人更加活泼。

5.连接表语:

Shakespeare was not only a writer but (also) an actor 莎士比亚不仅是一位剧作家,而且是一位演员。

6.连接状语:

If your friend reminds you kindly of your faults, take what he says not merely pleasantly but thank fully. 如果低你的朋友善意地指明出你的缺点,你不但要欣然接受,而且要心怀感激之情。

7.连接从句:

He didn’t let us off the hook until we had proved not only that we knew what an organism was but also that we had the fortitude to stand up for the truth. 直到我们证明了我们不仅知道什么是生物体,而且具有坚持真理的不屈不挠精神时,他这才放过我们。

8.连接定语:

Man has become master not only of the sky but also of the space. 人类不但征服了天空,而且征服了太空。

9.连接句子:

I not only heard it, but (also) I saw it. 我不仅听到、而且看到了它。 Not only…but also连接句子时, not only 可以置于句首表示强调,这时第一分句要采用倒装结构。例如:

Not only has he a first-class brain but also he is a tremendously hard worker. 他不仅有着头等聪明的脑子,而且工作很能吃苦。

Not only had the poor man been arrested but he had been sent to prison as well. 这个可怜的人不仅被逮捕,而且被投进监狱。

Not only do the professors have their own ideas on the matter, but the students have theirs too.对这件事不仅教授们有自己的看法,学生们也有自己的想法。

10.用于 it is…that 强调结构

It is not only the scientist and the physician who need a long special training now, but the computer expert, the accountant, and the business manager. 现在,不仅科学家和医生需要长期的专门训练,计算机专家、会计师和企业经理也需要这种训练。

It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable. 我们不但要对我们所做的事负责,而且要对我们没有去做的事负责。

二、not only…but的省略及其变体

1.Not only…but also中的also可以省略。有人认为该句型所连接的第二部分最高级形容词或它所表示的范围、程度、影响等超过第一部分时,常将also省略。例如:

He was not only a successful writer but (also) the greatest poet of his time. 他不仅是一位成功的作家,而且是他那个时代最伟大的诗人。

He is famous not only in China but (also) in the whole world. 他不仅闻名中国,而且闻名全球。

Not only do they suffer less pain than most women in labor, but the town boasts an unusually

low rate of infant mortality. 这不仅使她们比大多数产妇受痛苦,而且使城市婴儿死亡率大大降低。

2.not only…but also句型一般只省略also,但在连接句子时,有时也可见到省略but甚至but also的情形。例如:

Not only was I tired, I was also cold.我不光困倦, 还感到很冷。(省去了but)

George not only made an important friend, he also learned about the frontier. (省去了but)

Since moisture is needed for rain, dry air in the morning not only allows the spider to get an early start, is also means a dry day. 有了湿度才会下雨,因此,早晨空气干燥不仅使蜘蛛早点开始结网,而且意味着这一天不会下雨。(省去了but)

Not only bas she been an excellent wife, she has been a better husband than I’ll never be.

她不仅是一个极其出色的妻子,而且是一个我永远也做不到的好丈夫。(省去了but also)

Not only were there no traces of drinking water in the room, there was not sufficient water found in the dead star’s stomach to have comfortably taken the tablets with. 不仅房内没有饮用水的痕迹,在这位已故影星的胃里也没发现有把这些药丸舒适地送下去的水。省去了but also)

3. not only…but also的形式比较固定,但也会出现but与also被分隔开来的情形。例如:Not only the mother but the children are also sick.

Not only is his right lung affected but his left lung is also.他不但右肺被感染,而且左肺也被感染了。

4.not only A but also B的替代式常见的还有not only A but B…as well, not only A but B too, not merely A but also B, not just A but also B, not…alone…but 等。例如:

Not only my mother was unhappy, but Mary, too. 不但我妈妈不高兴,玛丽也不高兴。

In jurisprudence it is a well-known principle that justice should not merely be done but should also be seen to be done.在法理学方面,人所共知的原则是:对受害者不仅应当公正对待,而且应当让人们看到他得到了公正的对待。

Not just the people of our nation, but all the people of the world have profited from his work.不仅我们国家的人民,而且全世界所有的人民,都从他的研究工作中得到了好处。

Not poets alone, nor artists, nor that superior order of mind which arrogates to itself all refinement, feel this, but dogs and all men.不仅诗人,艺术家以及那些自命不凡、思想杰出的人觉得如此,连狗和普通人也有同感。

二、注意事项

1.”not only A but also B”结构中的A和B通常是同等成分。由于同一成分常常由同一词类的词来担任,所以A与B常常也是同一词性,这从本文第一部分的例句中即可看到。但是,也有A与B属于不同词性的情形。如:”He is not only very clever, but also a very hard worker, and he likes to do everything well.(他不但聪明,而且能下功夫。他喜欢把每一件事都做得很好。)其中A是形容词,B是名词,但两者均在句中作表语,因此仍是正确句子。然而,在“He not only plays the piano, but also the violin.”一句中,A是动词,B是名词,不是同一成分,因此语法学家认为此句有点欠妥,至少在书面语中就是如此。如改为“He plays not only the piano, but also the violin”就无懈可击了,再看下面二例:

The surprise grant not only enabled Dad to finish A&T, but to graduate first in his class.这笔意外的奖学金不仅使我父亲能读完农业和技术学院,而且毕业成绩名列榜首。

1.Not only spoke English very carefully, but very clearly as well.

2.有人认为,not only…but also不能用于否定句。汉语中用于否定句中的“不但…而且”在英语中要用as well as 表示。如“不但我不想看戏,而且他也不想看戏”可译作“He, as well as I, doesn’t want to see the play.”不过,这条规则也有例外,请看下面二例:

Not only did none of us know how the crime was to be committed, we didn’t even know what the crime was to be!

Not only don’t I know the population of Nepal, I don’t know where in god’s world it is!我不但不知道尼泊尔人口,而且连它究竟在哪里也不知道!

这两个例句有几个共同点:都是连接否定分句,都是倒装句,都没有用but also。下面一例出自一位美国作家之手,所不同的是,not only…but连接的是并列谓语,第一个动词是否定的,第二个动词则是肯定的:

Nonetheless, as he described Mary’s attitudes her accomplishments, he found himself wishing that she cared more about the police side of his life than she seemed to, that she might understand it as intimately, say, as the woman opposite him. But this motion seemed to him so disloyal to Mary that he not only did not articulate it, but at once tried to suppress it.

《not only but also用法总结》

not only... but (also)...

1. not only... but (also)...在句中常用来连接两个对等的成分,also可以省略。如:

He is learning not only English but (also) French. 他不但在学英语,而且还在学法语。

She speaks Russian not only in class but (also) at home.

她在课堂上和家里都说俄语。 【拓展】 2. not only... but (also)... 用来连接两个主语时,谓语动词的单、复数遵循“就近原则”,即和but (also)后的名词或代词的数一致。如:

Not only Zhou Xia but also her parents are fond of watching football matches. 不但周霞,而且她的父母都喜欢看足球比赛。

Not only you but also he is tired of having one

examination after another.不但你,而且他也讨厌一次接一次的考试。

3. not only... but (also)... 连接两个分句,当not only位于句首,前一个分句常用倒装来表示强调,而but (also)后的分句仍用陈述语序。如:

Not only is the teacher himself interested in foreign films,but also all his students are beginning to show an interest in them.

不但老师自己对外国电影感兴趣,就连他所有的学生也开始对外国电影感兴趣了。

Not only does Miss Li like music, but (also) she likes sports. 李小姐不但喜欢音乐,而且还喜欢体育。

【注意】使用中注意两点:

1、就近。指谓语形式取决于离它近的主语。

Not only the students but also the teacher reads English every day.

2、一致。not only 与 but also后面所接的词类要一致。 She can not only sing but also dance.

【用法小结】

1. not only … but also 应连接两个相对称的并列成分。例如:

Not only Mr Lin but also his son joined the Party two years ago. (连接两个主语)

I not only play tennis but also practise shooting. (连接两个谓语动词)

He plays not only the piano but also the violin. (连接两个宾语)

They speak English not only in class but also in the dormitory. (连接两个地点状语)

【注】

1).She not only sings well but also dances beautifully. = She doesn't only sing well but also dances

beautifully.

2).句子 He not only plays the piano but also the violin 不是好的文体,因为 but also 之后的成分与 not only 之后的成分不对称。

2. not only … but also 连接两个分句,并且 not only 位于句首时,第一个分句中的主语和谓语要部分倒装。例如: Not only does the sun give us light but also it gives us heat.

Not only did he speak English correctly, but also he speaks it fluently.

Not only is this young man clever but also he is hardworking.

3. not only … but also 不能用在否定句中。例如: 误: They don't fear not only hardship but also

death.

正: They fear neither hardship nor death. 正: They don't fear either hardship or death.

4. not only … but also 连接两个主语时,谓语动词要和与其最近的主语保持人称和数的一致。例如:

Not only the students but also the teacher was against the plan. / Not only the teacher but also the students were against the plan.

5. not only … but also 中的 not only 不能分开使用,但 but also 却可以分开使用。例如:

The area was not only hit by an unexpected heavy rain, but some bridges were also washed away.

6. not only … but also 连接两个并列成分时,可以省略 but 或 also ,也可以把 but also 都省略掉。例如: I not only heard it but ( also ) saw it.

He was not only compelled(被迫) to stay at home,( but ) also forbidden(禁止) to see his friend. She not only finished the task ahead of time, ( but also ) she came to help us.

《not only...but also...的用法》

not only„but also„的用法

用于连接两个表示并列关系的成分,着重强调后者,其意为“不仅„„而且„„”;其中的also有时可以省略。如:

She not only plays well, but also writes music. 她不仅很会演奏,而且还会作曲。

He not only writes his own plays, he also acts in them. 他不仅是自编剧本, 还饰演其中的角色。

Not only men but also women were chosen. 不仅仅是男的,女的也有被选中的。

He works not only on weekdays but on Sundays as well. 他不仅平时工作,星期日也工作。

Not only the students but also their teacher is enjoying the film. 不仅学生们在欣赏这部影片,他们的老师也在欣赏这部影片。

说明:若连接两个成分作主语,其谓语通常与靠近的主语保持一致。如:

Not only you but also he has to leave. 不只是你,他也得离开。 若连接两个句子,not only后面的句子要用倒装,如:

Not only did he speak more correctly, but he spoke more easily. 他不仅说得更正确,而且讲得更不费劲了。

使用not only „ but also „ 时须注意的几点:

1. not only与but also后面所连接的词的词性必须对等:

(1) Franklin was considered not only an inventor, but also a statesman.

富兰克林不仅被看作发明家,而且被看作政治家。

(2) The nurse was not only competent but also kind. 这位护士不仅能干而且亲切和蔼。

(6) They completed the project not only punctually but also perfectly. 他们不仅准时完成工程,而且完成得很出色。

2. not only只能连用,而but also既可连用,也可分开用:

b. Television is not only boring, but it also wastes a lot of time. 电视不仅乏味,而且还浪费许多时间。

c. She was not only compelled to stay at home, but she was also forbidden to see her friends. 她不仅被强迫蹲在家中,而且被禁止去看朋友。

3.谓语动词的数应与but also后主语的数保持一致:

Not only you but also Mr. Zhang teaches in this college. 不仅你,张老师

也在此学院教书。

4. not only放在句首,后接句子时要用倒装结构:

(1) Not only does television appeal to those who can read but to those who can't. 电视不仅吸引阅读的人,而且也吸引了不会阅读的人。

(2) Not only was everything Albert Einstein had taken away but also his citizenship was deprived of. 爱因斯坦的财产不仅被掳掠一空,而且他的德国国籍也被剥夺了。

(3) Not only had the poor man been fined, but also he had been sent to prison. 这个可怜的人不仅被罚款,而且还被送进了监狱。 not only„but also„是否一定要连接对称结构

But this motion seemed to him so disloyal to Mary that he not only did not articulate it, but at once tried to suppress it.

Reason的用法

reason在定语从句中

• The reason why...is that... 这是特定句型, why引导定语从句,is后的用词为that,一般不

用because.

• The reason why he could not go there was that his grades were too low.

• the reason that 后接具体原因

• 如:the reason that he was ill yesterday is such a bad excuse.意为:那个他昨天生病的理

由真是个糟糕的借口.

• the reason why 后接对这个理由的修饰,或者是现在需要解释的一个状况.如:the

reason why he was late is that he was ill. 在这里,he was late是一个需要解释的情况,所以用 the reason why ,这里,用到一个句型:the reason why ... is that... ,依照上面示例可知用法.

• 当在定语从句中时,如果reason在句子中充当成分如:主语.宾语或者表语时,用

which/that

• 如:The reason which/that he gave to us is true.此时 which指代的先行词 reason在定

语从句中做gave的宾语,因此可以用which / that

• 如::I don`t believe the reason ( ) he has given us for his being late.

• 此时 先行词 reason在定语从句中做given的宾语,因此可以用which / that

• the reason后的定语从句,若需在定语从句中作状语,用why, for which, that引导或

者省略不用;若不是在定语从句中作状语,而是作主语或宾语,就不能用why和for which,而应用that或which,作宾语时常省略

• 如:That wasn’t the reason (why / for which /that) he lied to you.那不是他对你撒谎的原

因。

More than的用法

A. “More than+名词”表示“不仅仅是”

1) Modern science is more than a large amount of information.

2) Jason is more than a lecturer; he is a writer, too.

We need more than material wealth to build our country.建设我们国家,不仅仅需要物质财富.

B. “More than+数词”含“以上”或“不止”之意,如:

3) I have known David for more than 20 years.

4) Let's carry out the test with more than the sample copy.

More than one person has made this suggestion. 不止一人提过这个建议.

C. “More than+形容词”等于“很”或“非常”的意思,如:

5) In doing scientific experiments, one must be more than careful with the instruments.

6) I assure you I am more than glad to help you.

D. more than + (that)从句,其基本意义是“超过(=over)”,但可译成“简直不”“远非”. 难以,完全不能(其后通常连用情态动词 can) --That is more than I can understand . 那非我所能懂的.

--That is more than I can tell. 那事我实在不明白。

--The heat there was more than he could stand. 那儿的炎热程度是他所不能忍受的

此外,“more than”也在一些惯用语中出现,如:

--More often than not (经常),people tend to pay attention to what they can take rather than what they can give.

---All of us are more than a little concerned about(非常关心)the current economic problems

《not only...but also的用法》

not only…but also…的用法

一、连接对称结构

not only…but also…是一对非常有用的关联连词,其意为“不仅……而且……”“不但……而且……”,通常用于连接两个相同的句子成分,即所谓的“对称结构”。如:

1. 连接主语

Not only you but also I am hungry. 不只你,我也饿了呢。

Not only the students but also their teacher is enjoying the film. 不仅学生们在欣赏这部影片,他们的老师也在欣赏这部影片。

2. 连接谓语

She not only plays well, but also writes music. 她不仅很会演奏,而且还会作曲。

He not only read the book, but also remembered what he read. 他不仅读过这本书,还记得内容。

3. 连接表语

He is not only arrogant but also selfish. 他不但傲慢,而且自私。

The place was not only cold, but also damp. 那个地方不但很冷而且很潮湿。

4. 连接宾语

She likes not only music but also sport. 她不但喜欢音乐而且喜欢运动。

If this project fails it will affect not only our department, but also the whole organization. 要是这个方案不成功,这不仅不会影响我们这个部门,而且会影响整个组织。

5. 连接定语

There are problems not only with the students, but also with the teachers themselves. 不但学生们有难题,教师们自己也有。

6. 连接状语

We go there not only in winter, but also in summer. 我们不仅冬天去那儿,而且夏天

也去。

He works not only on weekdays but on Sundays as well. 他不仅平时工作,星期日也工作。

They landed up not only having to apologize but also offering to pay. 他们最后不但同意道歉,而且还要付款。

二、连接非对称结构

但在实际运用中,该结构有时不完全遵循“连接相同句子成分”的用法而出现一些非对称结构。这类用法主要有以下几类:

1. 因承前省略而导致的不对称

(1) He not only goes to work on weekdays, but also on weekends. 他不仅工作日去上班,在周末也去上班。

句中的not only后接的是谓语goes to,而but also后接的却是状语 on weekends,可视为but also后承前省略了谓语动词 goes to work。

(2) She not only plays the piano, but also the violin. 他不仅弹钢琴,而且还拉小提琴。

句中的not only后为谓语动词,而but also后接的是名词,实为动词plays的宾语,可视为在but also后承前省略了谓语动词plays。

(3) Her charm not only consists in her beauty but also in her self-confidence. 她的魅力不仅在于她的美貌,而且在于她的自信。

可视为but also后承前省略了consists。

2. 因强调导致不对称

有时为了强调,not only…but also…连接的两个成分也可能是“不对称”的,这类用法尤其见于not only后接的是句子的一个部分,而but却用于句中“连接”一个句子(其后的句中可能出现also,也可能省略also)。如:

(1) It’s not only useless to trouble him but it is needless to do so. 去麻烦他不仅没有用而且没有必要。

(2) He’s not only very fast, but he’s also got marvellous technique. 他不仅很快,而且技术高超。

主要用法就是谓语动词要遵循“就近一致原则”,Not only the students but also the teacher was invited. 不仅学生们被邀请,而且那位教师也被邀请了。 ---------------------

(以下为详细用法)

“not only … but also …”是一个并列连词词组,其意思基本等于“both … and …”,但侧重点放在“but also”上,另外该词组使用时须遵守一定的规则,如要求对称,倒装及主谓一致等。以下两个句子往往被看作是欠妥或错误的:

1. *Sitting up late last night,Tom not only read the assignment but also many poems by his favourite poet.

英语倒装句Inversion

描述:

主语和谓语是句子的核心,它们之间有两种语序:一是主语在谓语之前称为自然语序(Natural Order);二是主语在谓语之后则称为倒装语序(Inverted Order)。而倒装语序中又有全部倒装(Full Inversion)和部分倒装(Partial Inversion)两种情况。

首先,在全部倒装的句子中,要把整个谓语放在主语的前面去而构成倒装语

序。

例如:

There are large numbers of students in the lecture hall.

(在There be…的句式中,There只是个引导词而不是主语,真正的主语是后面作表语的名词或者名词短语。因此,There be…的句式都是全部倒装的句子。)演讲厅里有大量的学生。

When he ran to the door, there stood a mid-aged man with a lantern in his hand .

(此句是为了"描述情节的需要",把倒装当着修辞的手段而写成了全部倒装句。句子的主语是a mid-aged man,谓语是stood 。)当他向房门跑去时,那儿正立着一位手里拿着一盏灯笼的中年男人。

另外,在部分倒装的句子中,只把谓语的一部分(如情态动词、助动词、或是系动词be)放到主语的前面去,构成倒装语序。例如:

Are you going to take part in the football match against Accounting Department on Friday afternoon? (句子的谓语是are going to take part,are是句子的谓语的一部分;句子的主语是you 。所以,此句是部分倒装的句子。疑问句都是部分倒装句。)你打算去参加星期五与会计系进行的足球赛吗? Hardly could he finish his test paper when the school bell rang .(由于语法要求的原因,本句写成了部分倒装的句子。它的自然语序应该是:When the bell rang, he could hardly finish his test paper.)他还未做完试卷,下课铃就响了。

了解了倒装语序的构成情况后,我们再来看看倒装语序在各种不同类句子中的使用情况:

A. 在疑问句中

各种疑问句一般地说都是倒装语序。例如:

Will they come to see us this weekend ? 这个周末他们将来看我们吗? Are you talking about the film you saw last Monday ?

你们是在谈论你们上周一看的那部电影吗?

Can you speak another foreign language except English?

除开英语,你还能说另一种外语吗?

Where did you buy the dictionary, in the book store nearby or in Xinhua bookstore?

你在哪儿买的这本词典,是在附近的书店还是在新华书店?

She is not a student, isn't she ? 她不是个学生,对吗?

B. 在感叹句中

某些感叹句也用倒装语序。例如:

Isn't it a beautiful garden ! 多么美丽的花园啊!

What a beautiful garden it is ! 多么美丽的花园啊!(在这种句式中,主语在谓语之前,属于自然语序。对于主语和谓语而言,语序没有倒装。) Have you ever seen such a naughty kid like him !

你见过那个孩子像他这么调皮!

C. 在陈述句中

陈述句在一般情况下用自然语序;但由于英语语法的某些原因,陈述句也要使用倒装语序。这些原因大致可以归纳如下:

1) 为了避免句子部分内容不必要的重复,常用"so + be动词(助动词、情态动词)+主语"或"neither / nor + be动词(助动词、情态动词)+主语"的倒装句式。其中第一个句式表示"与前面所述的肯定情况相同", 第二个句式表示"与前面所述的否定情况相同"。例如:

His brother is a college student; so is mine.

他弟弟是大学生,我弟弟也是。

His brother is not a college student; nor is mine .

他弟弟不是大学生,我弟弟也不是。

He used to have his further study abroad; so did I.

他曾去国外深造过,我也去过。

He didn't use to have his further study abroad; neither did I. 他没去国外深造过,我也没有。

One of my friends can speak three foreign languages; so can his wife. 我的一个朋友会说三门外国语,他的妻子也会。

One of my friends cannot speak three foreign languages; neither can his wife .我的一个朋友不会说三门外国语,他的妻子也不会。

They are now preparing for their final examinations; so are we . 他们正在为期末考试作准备,我们也一样。

They are not now preparing for their final examinations; nor are we . 他们没在为期末考试作准备,我们也没有。

2)具有否定意义的词或短语臵于句首时(除否定词修饰主语外),句子一般要写成部分倒装句。这类词或短语常见的有:not, never, seldom, hardly, rarely, scarcely, by no means, under no circumstances, in no way, at no time, no sooner … (than), hardly … (when), not only … (but also), not until… ,等。例如:

Hardly had she sat down when she heard someone knocking at the door . 她还没来得及坐下来,就听见有人敲门。

Not until twelve o'clock did he go to bed last night .

他昨晚直到十二点钟才睡觉。

Never have my sisters been to Hong Kong before .

我的妹妹们以前从未去过香港。

No sooner had I returned home from New Zealand than I bought a house and went to live there.我从新西兰一回国,就买了一栋房子并在那儿住下了。 So far as I know, seldom does Mary come back to see her mother. 就我所知,玛利几乎很难回来看她妈妈。

Scarcely a drop of rain fell here last fall . (否定词修饰主语时,句子不用倒装。) 去年秋天,这儿几乎没下一滴雨。

3)当so, often, only等表示程度、频率的副词放在句首时,句子一般要倒装。例如:

Only in this way can you come up with a solution to the problem. 只有这样,你才有可能想出解决这个问题的办法。

So serious was the situation that everybody faced a test. 形势如此地严峻,每个人都面临着一场考验。

So hard did he overwork that he fell ill at last. 他太操劳过度以致

最后病倒了。

4)当there, here, then, now等副词在句首,且谓语是come, go, be等动词时,句子一般要全部倒装。其意义在于引起他人的注意。如果这类句子的主语是代词,则不用写成倒装句。例如:

Now, here goes the story.这个故事是这样的。

Look, there comes the taxi.瞧,出租车过来了。

Then came another question.然后又一个问题提出来了。

Then followed the four-year War of Liberation.接下来是四年的解放战争。

5) 当out, in, away, up, bang等表示方位或拟声词放在句首时,句子一般要全部倒装。这类子比自然语序的句子更为生动、形象。但如果这类句子的主语是代词,则不用写成倒装句。例如:

Bang goes my ace.我砰地一下打出了"A"。(扑克牌中的点数)

Away flew the bird.那鸟飞走了。

Suddenly, in came a man with a mask on his face.

突然进来一个蒙着面具的人。

6) 其他情况还有:省略了if的虚拟条件句、某些表示祝愿的句子、以及某些让步状语从句,等等也要用倒装句式。例如:(省略了if的虚拟条件句) Had they not helped us, we could not have done it so successfully. 如果没有他们的帮助,我们不可能把那件事办的如此成功。

Should he come, say "Nobody in" to him.

万一他来了,对他说:"公司没人。"(某些表示祝愿的句子)

May our friendship last forever.愿我们的友谊常存!

May your company become prosperous.祝贵公司生意兴隆!(某些让步状语从句)

Try as I might, I couldn't lift the stone.无论我使多大的劲,我也无法搬起那块石头。

They said they would follow the Party's lead come what might. 他们说无论发生什么情况,他们都会跟党走的。

7) 由于修辞或是平衡句子的原因也可以用倒装句;也可以不用。这不是一条必须的规定。

Next to this one is another grand hotel which is beautifully decorated . 这家饭店隔壁还有一家装修华丽的大饭店。

On either side of the great avenue stood many block buildings. 这条大街的两侧都耸立着许多综合楼。(这类句子也可以不用倒装句。) "I'm leaving for Beijing tomorrow," said Tom to his mother (OR: Tom said to his mother) .汤姆对他妈妈说:"我明天动身去北京。"

Many block buildings stood on either side of the great avenue. 许多综合楼耸立在这条大街的两侧。

Another grand hotel, which is beautifully decorated, is next to this one .

这家饭店隔壁还有一家大饭店,那家饭店装修十分华丽。
