特殊句式特殊句式一、考点梳理。
1.考查否定词置于句首时的倒装形式【例】 Never in my wildest dreams_____these people are living in such poor conditions.A.I could imagineB.could I imagineC.I couldn't imagineD.couldn't I imagine【答案】B2.考查否定的介词短语置于句首时的倒装形式【例】I've tried very hard to improve my English. But by no means________with my progress.A. the teacher is not satisfiedB.is the teacher not satisfiedC. the teacher is satisfiedD. is the teacher satisfied【答案】D【解析】当by no means, in no case, on no condition等表示否定意义的介词短语置于句首时，其后要用倒装语序。
3.考查so／neither／nor doI类型的倒装形式【例】(1) —— My room gets very cold at night.—— ____.A. So is mineB.So mine isC.So does mineD.So mine does【答案】C【解析】so does mine在此的意思是“我的房间也一样”。
表示“……也一样”时，so的后面要用倒装语序，故可排除选项B和D。
又因为前面一句的谓语动词为实义动词(gets)，所以后面一句要用助动词does，不能用is。
所以答案选C。
【例】(2) If Joe's wife won't go to the party,____.A. he will eitherB.neither will heC.he neither willD.either he will【答案】B【解析】当要表示“……也一样不”时，neither后要接倒装语序，故选B。

【例】(1) David said that it was because of his strong interest in literature___hechose the course.A. thatB.whatC.whyD. how【答案】A【解析】考查“It was+被强调部分+that…”这一强调句式，被强调部分为介词短语because of his strong interest in literature.【例】(2)I don't mind her criticizing me, but________is how she does it that I object to.A. itB.thatC.thisD. which【答案】A8.考查强调结构特殊疑问句形式前面已经讲到，强调结构It is／was...that／who...的特殊疑问句形式为“疑问词+is/was it that...”。
遇到这类题时，关键是要能够识别它是强调结构，同时根据句意或句子成分确定相应疑问词的选择。

how在此表示方式。
【例】(2)I just wonder________that makes him so excited.A. why it doesB.what he does:C.how it isD. what it is【答案】D9．综合考查强调结构和not...until...句式not...until...句式用于强调结构时，其基本结构为it is/was not until...that...，命题切入点主要有三个方面：一是考查It is／was not until的正确形式（通常用其肯定式进行干扰）；二是考查其中的that的正确用法（通常用when等干扰）；三是考查not until后的词序（应用正常词序；但可能用倒装词序来干扰）。
【例】 (1) It____we had stayed together for a couple of weeks____I found we had a lot in common.A. was until; whenB.was until; thatC. wasn't until; whenD. wasn't until; that【答案】D【解析】此题考查not...until...句式的强调形式It was not until..．that...的用法。
注意不要想当然地将其中的that换成when。

有时考查not…but…的同义结构...rather than...与强调结构的综合运用。
例如：【例】 (2) It is what you do rather than what you say____matters.A. thatB.whatC.whichD.this【答案】A【解析】被强调成分为what you do rather than what you say句意为：重要的是你怎么做，而不是你怎么说。
二、要点点拨一、完全倒装1. here, there, away, down, in, up, off, out, now, then, next等表方位的副词或时间副词放在句首，且句子主语为名词时。
Here comes the bus.公共汽车朝这儿开过来了。
【例】For a moment nothing happened Then all shouting together.A. voices had comeB. came voicesC. voices would comeD. did voices come【答案】B【解析】考查特殊句式。
副词then位于句首，且当句子的主语是名词时，句子用全部倒装句，选B。
2．表地点的介词短语作状语位于句首时。
In a lecture hall of a university in England sits a professor.在英国一所大学的演讲厅里坐着一位教授。
From the valley came a frightening sound.从山谷里传来了一阵可怕的声音。
3．形容词、-ed分词、-ing分词或介词短语作表语置于句首，强调表语时，或为保持句子结构平衡用倒装。
