英语倒装
(1) So... that和such…that
在so... that 结构中，若将so + adj. / adv. 置于句首，则其后的主句要用部分倒装。如：
So cold was the weather that we had to stay at home. 天气太冷，我们只好呆在家里。
So fast does light travel that we can hardly imagine its speed. 光速很快，我们几乎没法想像它的速度。
So sudden was the attack that we had no time to escape. 袭击来得非常突然，我们来不及逃跑。
So much did they eat that they could not move for the next hour. 他们吃得太多了，一个小时都动弹不得。
So loudly did he speak that even people in the next room could hear him. 他讲话声音那么大，隔壁屋里的人都听得见。
类似地，当such…that…结构的such…置于句首时，such后的句子也要使用部分倒装。如：
Such a nice man did he seem that we all believe him. 他像个很和蔼的人，所以我们都喜欢他。
(2) 表语或状语置于句首时的完全倒装
有时为了强调或者为了使句子平衡或者为了使上下文连接得更加紧密，就将表语和地点状语(多为介词短语)置于句首，谓语动词也常置于主语前，构成完全倒装。如：
By the door stood an armed guard. 门口站着一名手持武器的士兵。
At the next table was a pretty girl waiting for someone. 隔壁桌上坐着一个等人的漂亮姑娘。
Among these people was his friend Jim. 他的朋友吉姆就在这些人当中。
