开头的倒装句”so, neither”倒装大致可归纳为两种情况:一种是语法和习惯用法的需要,一种是修辞上的需要。
“so, neither”开头的倒装句属于前者。
这一类倒装就是按照语法规则和习惯用法,把谓语动词(一部分或全部)放在主语之前。
只有这样才能正确、恰当地表达思想。
so, neither位于分句或句子的开头,这种结构通常表示前面所说的情况也适合于另一个人(或事物),表示“我也这样”之类的概念。
结构:肯定:So + be / / 助动词/ 情态动词+ 主语.否定:Neither / Nor + be / / 助动词/ 情态动词+ 主语. ▲—She is interested in the story. —So am I.▲—I won't do such a thing. —Neither will he.如果用来表示赞同,对上面说话人的肯定时,so后不倒装。
结构:So + 主语+ be / / 助动词/ 情态动词.▲—It was cold yesterday. —So it was.温馨提示:so, neither开头的倒装句一定要与上句的时态保持一致。
▲—Peter doesn't like swimming. —Neither does Tom.▲—Peter went to school by bus yesterday. —So did Tom.温馨提示:so, neither开头的倒装句中的助动词或情态动词要根据人称的变化而变换。
▲—Peter doesn't like swimming. —Neither do I.语法追踪练习一、单项选择。
