托福写作对文章句式有一定要求,只靠平铺直叙的简单句很难拿到25分以上的作文成绩。而作为比较能够体现句式变化的倒装句,考生如果能够学会用法且用得恰到好处,就能顺利达成句式方面的高分要求。
1. here, there, now, then等副词引导的句子,通常称作把时间状语,地点状语提前的倒装句,其谓语动词通常跟在时间or地点状语之后。
A controversy whether starting school day early is a better choice appears then.
变成:
Then appears a controversy whether starting school day early is a better choice.
In the urban cities, an increasing number of ambitious youngsters who attempt to earn a better living live there.
In the urban cities, there live an increasing number of ambitious youngsters who attempt to earn a better living.
2. 为了使描述的景象更生动,常把拟声词或away, in, out, up, down等状语放在句首,从而引起主谓全部倒装。
Down it fell from the apple tree.
The door opened, in rush the crowed.
Up went the arrow
总结1,2:here, there/now, then/in, out/up, down/ away + 谓语动词 + 主语
3. 句首状语是表示地点的介词词组时,也完全倒装: 地点状语+谓语+主语
很多工厂位于都市。
Many factories lie in urban cities.
In urban cities lie many factories.

更多的年轻人选待在家里放松。

4. 表语放在句首,倒装结构采用:“表语+ 系动词 + 主语”
1)形容词+系动词+主语:
大学生很担忧他们未来的职业发展,使他们找各种兼职工作希望去尽可能多的培养技能。
College students are anxious about their future career development, leading them to take various different part-time jobs with the hoping to cultivate techniques as many as possible.
变为:
Anxious about their future career development are college students, leading them to take various different part-time jobs with the hoping to cultivate techniques as many as possible.
