1.副词only置于句首, 强调方式状语、 条件状语、
地点状语、 时间状语等状语时, 主句要进行部分
倒装。例如:
Only in a big city was it possible to buy new
wheelchairs. 只有在大城市里才能买到新轮椅。
2.如果放于句首的only所修饰的不是状语时,
该句不用倒装。例如:
Only John can save me. 只有约翰能够救我。
3.如果被only所强调的状语为状语从句,
该状语从句不倒装, 只对主句进行倒装。如:
Only when we had studied the data again
did we realize that there was a mistake. only + 状语放在句首,要部分倒装。
Only on such a trip can you learn so much about European artists. (介词短语)
Only by this means is it possible to explain it. (介词短语)
Only then did I realize the importance of English. (副词)
Only when the war was over was he able to get happily back to work. (从句)
