套句展示

　　1. So + 形容词 + be + 主词 + that + 句子(如此…以至于…)

　　【例】So precious is time that we can not afford to waste it. 时间是如此珍贵，我们经不起浪费它。

　　这是四级考试作文部分经常用到的一个套句，也是我们在第一部分要学习的第一种句型——倒装句。

　　我们注意到这个句子的谓语动词“be”放到的了主语的前面，这种句子成分顺序和标准句型不一致的句型就是倒装句。

　　倒装(The Inversion)，一般来说是一种较正式的句型，能考查考生的英文写作水平。在文章的开头用倒装句你的文章会因此而添色不少，也是写应试作文获取高分的亮点之一，所以我们一定要学会正确地使用它，恰当地用来阐述自己的观点。

　　2. adj. + as + Subject(主词)+ be, S. + V. + …(虽然…)

　　【例】Rich as our country is, our quality of life is by no means satisfactory.

　　虽然我们的国家富有，我们的生活品质却不是令人满意的。

　　v by no means = in no way = on no account一点也不

　　3. On no account can we + V. + …(我们绝对不能…)

　　【例】On no account can we ignore the value of knowledge.

　　我们绝对不能忽略知识的价值。

　　必考句型

　　(1) Among the disadvantages that may bring to are that + S. + V., making + n. + adj.

　　【分析】有时候，为了强调“介词 + 宾语”结构，我们把它置于句首，此时句子需要全部倒装，在本句中我们把谓语动词“are”放在了主语结构“that…”的前面。

　　Among the disadvantages that cars may bring to our lives are that we could spend more time in traffic jams and we would likely spend more money on operation and maintenance fees, making our schedules tighter and our pockets lighter!

　　(2) With these steps, we can change our society into one out of which comes the possibility that

　　【分析】句中的定语从句“out of which comes the possibility…”是完全倒装句。

　　With these steps, we can change our society into one out of which comes the possibility that natural resources will be fully cherished.

　　(3) There is a real possibility that , should there be a .

　　【分析】Should there be a…是省略if并部分倒装的将来时虚拟条件句。还原后为：If there should be a…

　　There is a real possibility that we can solve this problem completely, should there be cooperation among all parties involved.

　　(4) never, hardly, seldom, rarely, not, until…，scarcely, in no case(不管怎样也不)，in no way(不管怎么也不)，by no means(决不)，on no account(不论什么原因也不)，at no time(无论什么时候也不)等否定词放在句首时，句子要倒装。

　　By no means shall we cease to protect our environment.

　　(5) It was very late. Exhausted though she was, there was no hope of her being able to fall asleep.

　　【分析】从属连词as和though也可以用于让步状语从句中。这种从句必须以形容词(或形容词化的分词)、名词或动词原形开头，主句必须位于从句之后。

　　1) Small as a bicycle is, it can bring a lot of convenience to our lives.

　　2) Foolish though he looks, he always seems to make the wisest proposals. (他看起来样子傻傻的，可似乎总是能提出最聪明的建议。)

　　3) Try as you may, you will never succeed. (你尽管可以试，但决不会成功)。

　　练习与进步：

　　1. 至于计算机化的影响，没有什么地方比银行能更清楚地看到其成果。

　　2. 要不是来自政府的及时投资，我们的公司不会像现在这样繁荣昌盛。

　　3. 只是过了一年，我就开始看到我工作的成绩。
