1. 用于“there（here，now，then）+不及物动词+主语”的句型中，或以in, out, down, up, away等副词开头的句子里，以示强调。

Out rushed the boy with an apple in his hand.那个男孩手里拿着一个苹果冲出去了。

【考例】For a moment nothing happened. Then ______ all shouting together. A. voices had come B. came voices C. voices would come D. did voices come【解析】B。

副词then位于句首，句子应使用全部倒装语序，将动词直接移到主语前面。

注意：当句子的主语是人称代词时，尽管副词位于句首，主谓语序不倒装。

例如： Out they rushed.他们冲出去了。

Here he comes.他来了。

2. 表示方位意义的介词短语或副词短语位于句首作状语且谓语动词为be或表示“位于、存在”的动词或“位置移动”的单个不及物动词时。

二、部分倒装将谓语的一部分（即情态动词、系动词或助动词）提到主语前的称部分倒装。

如果句中没有情态动词、系动词或助动词，谓语只是一个实义动词，要在主语前加助动词do, does或did，主语后的实义动词用原形。

常见的有：1.当“so(such)…that…”结构中的so或such位于句首时，构成部分倒装句。

【考例】① So sudden ________ that the enemy had no time to escape. A. did the attack B. the attack did C. was the attack D. the attack was【解析】C。

②—My room gets very cold at night. —___________. (2007 江苏卷) A. So is mine B. So mine is C. So does mine D. So mine does【解析】C。

重复前面句子的部分意思，肯定用so。

并且前一句中使用了实义动词，故用助动词代替。

③Mary never does any reading in the evening, _________.（2005全国卷Ⅲ） A. so does John B. John does so C. John doesn’t too D. nor does John 【解析】D。

前面句子中表示否定意义，后面句子重复前面句子的部分意思，否定用neither或nor。

3. 当具有否定意义的词或词组（no, not, never, nowhere, hardly, scarcely, rarely, seldom, little, by no means, in no case/way, at no time等）位于句首时，要用部分倒装，这是近年来高考测试的热点。

【考例】①Little _____ about her own safety, though she was in great danger herself. A. did Rose care B. Rose did care C. Rose does care D. does Rose care【解析】A。

②－Did Linda see the traffic accident? －No, no sooner than it happened. A. had she gone B. she had gone C. has she gone D. she has gone【解析】A。

no sooner…than…连接句子时，第一个分句的主谓要部分倒装，并且该结构的动词时态非常固定，no sooner后面用过去完成时，than后面用一般过去时。

注意：not until引导的从句位于句首时，not until的从句不倒装，主句倒装。

only位于句首，修饰介词短语时，要用部分倒装语序。

从后面的部分倒装语序可知，应使用only。

only位于句首，修饰状语从句时，主句要用部分倒装语序。

计算机应该是“被修理”，故使用被动语态。

6. 当if引导的从句用虚拟语气时，可以把if省去，把从句中的were，had，should等放在从句前面，构成部分倒装。

【考例】①________ fired, your health care and other benefits will not be immediately cut off. A. Would you be B. Should you be C. Could you be D. Might you be【解析】B。

根据句意可知，前面应该是一个与将来事实相反的虚拟条件句，构成是should +v.或were to + v.。

只有B项符合符合要求。
