你以為倒裝句是高中才學的文法嗎?其實在國中會考、段考中,「Not only 開頭的倒裝句」就已經默默出現,而且很常出現在閱讀理解、句型改寫、甚至作文加分句型中。
倒裝句看起來好像很難,但其實只要掌握幾個邏輯,你就可以在 3 分鐘內理解,還能學會自己造句!
一、什麼是倒裝句?
倒裝句(Inversion)就是「把助動詞放在主詞前面」,看起來像疑問句,但其實是陳述句。
常見在以下幾種情況出現:
- 否定副詞開頭(Not only, Never, Rarely, Seldom…)
- So / Neither / Nor 開頭的附和句
- Here comes / There goes 等感嘆句
本篇重點放在考試最常見的「Not only 開頭的倒裝句」。
二、Not only 倒裝句的基本公式
Not only + 助動詞/Be動詞 + 主詞 + 原形動詞,but also + 句子
這個句型常用來強調「不只…而且…」,語氣加強且寫起來更有邏輯與層次感。
例句:
- Not only did he finish the report, but he also presented it well.
- (他不僅完成了報告,還報告得很好。)
句型分析:
- Not only 是副詞片語,放在句首
- did 是助動詞(因為原句是 he finished)
- he 是主詞
- finish 是原形動詞
✅ 注意:只有主句倒裝,but also 後面的句子照原本語序!
三、原句怎麼變成 Not only 倒裝句?
我們用這個雙句為例:
- He cleaned the room. He cooked dinner.
這兩個句子都在說他做的事情,若想強調語氣、提升句子層次,可以改寫為:
- Not only did he clean the room, but he also cooked dinner.
是不是馬上變得有質感又加強語氣?這樣的句型在作文中常用來加分!
四、常見錯誤&破解方式
| 錯誤句 | 問題點 | 正確寫法 |
|---|---|---|
| Not only he finished the report… | 沒有倒裝,助動詞少了 | Not only did he finish the report… |
| Not only did he finishes the report… | 助動詞後動詞誤用第三人稱 s | Not only did he finish the report… |
| Not only did he finish, also he presented… | but also 子句語序錯誤 | Not only did he finish, but he also presented… |
✅ 記住:did + 原形動詞、只主句倒裝、副句照原本語序
五、倒裝句在會考與作文中的實戰應用
會考閱讀中:
閱讀題常出現類似句型:
- Not only does the app help users track steps, but it also gives rewards. 問你這句話的意思,若你知道這是強調「兩個好處」,就能抓出主旨。
作文加分中:
原句:
- I visited the museum, and I learned a lot. 改寫為:
- Not only did I visit the museum, but I also learned a lot. 是不是語氣更強、層次更好?立刻加分!
六、快速練習 × 自我檢核
請試著將以下句子改寫成 Not only 倒裝句:
- She studies hard. She helps her classmates.
- They built the website. They promoted it online.
解答:
- Not only does she study hard, but she also helps her classmates.
- Not only did they build the website, but they also promoted it online.
🔍結語:國中生也能搞懂倒裝句,只要你從句子邏輯出發
其實英文文法沒有你想得那麼難,只要掌握結構+多看例句+反覆練習,像 Not only 這種倒裝句,即使是國中生也能快速掌握。
不管你是想在段考加分,還是會考作文寫出亮點句型,倒裝句絕對是值得你練起來的技巧之一。
