托福阅读长难句按照不同的成分划分有多种类型,然后又有不同成分之间的杂糅。按照句子成分的排序来说,倒装句会是一类大家不陌生的长难句类型。倒装句又分为部分倒装和完全倒装。部分倒装是把谓语动词的一部分移至主语的前面;全部倒装是把整个谓语动词置于主语之前。接下来前程百利小编具体介绍这两类倒装句。
一、全部倒装
1.here, there, away, down, in, up, off, out, now, then, next, thus 等副词开头的句子里,谓语动词只有一个,主语不是代词。
2. 介词短语作状语放句首
3. 表语置于句首表强调,倒装结构为:表语+连系动词+主语
1)形容词+系动词+主语
