英语中主语在前谓语在后的语序称为自然语序。
由于语法、修辞的需要谓语置于主语之前，称为全部倒装
助动词、情态动词等移到主语之前而主要动词仍然在主语之后的，称作部分倒装。
（1）为了叙述或描绘更加生动，将表示运动方向的副词（如“here, there, out, in, up, off, down, away, back等）放到句首。注意：这种句子必须是谓语动词为go, come, run, rush等表示位移的动词，主语是名词。
Here comes the bus.
There goes the bell.
Down came the rain
Out rushed a tiger from the wood.
（2）当句首是表示地点的介词短语时，为了保持句子结构的平衡或是为了使上下文更加紧密衔接
时，常使用倒装。
In the center of the hall stands a white piano.
Among them was a soldier who was wounded in the shoulder.
（3）用so表示“我也这样”一类概念时，常用以下结构：
肯定：so + be/ have/ 助动词/ 情态动词 + 主语
否定：nor/ neither + be/ have/ 助动词/ 情态动词 + 主语
He has visited the museum. ―So have I.
She can swim. －So can I.
The boy can’t skate. －Nor can his brother. (Neither can his brother.)
（4）副词only所强调的方式状语、条件状语、地点状语、时间状语等位于句首时，采用部分倒装。
Only by taking a taxi can you arrive there on time.
Only in this way can you make progress in English.
Only when she came home did he learn the news.
（5）为了强调句子中的否定状语，常将其置于句首，通常采用部分倒装。
这类常见的具有否定意义的副词、连词和短语有：
副词：few, little, never, not, nowhere, rarely, seldom
连词：not until, not only...but also, no sooner…than, hardly…when
短语：at no time, by no means, on no account, in no circumstances 绝不
Not until all the fish died in the river, did the villagers realize how serious the pollution was.
Not a single song did she sing at yesterday’s party.
No sooner had he arrived than he fell ill.
（6）虚拟语气的非真实条件句中若含有“were, had, should等词”，可以省略连词if，并把were等移到句首，构成倒装。
Were he here now, he would tell us what to do.
Had I the time, I would go.
Should it not rain, the crops would die.
（7）让步状语从句可以采用如下结构。形容词/名词 + as + 主语 + 谓语
Clever as he is, he doesn’t study well.
Child as he was, he lived on himself.
（8）so...that so在句首修饰形容词或副词表示强调时，主句要用倒装语序，后面以that引导的结果状语从句采用自然语序。
So shallow is the lake that no fish can live in it.
So loudly did he speak that people upstairs could hear him.
（9）however为连接副词，引导让步状语从句，其意义和作用相当于no matter how。可用于如下结构：
however + 形容词/副词 + 主语 + 谓语
However late he is, Mother will wait for him to have dinner together.
We’ll have to finish the jog, however long it takes.

The railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy train running at high speeds. Railroad experts wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870’s, however, steel was too expensiveby a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring, and reheating iron ore.
Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace would burn out the impurities that made the iron break easily. As the air shot though the furnace, the boiling metal would erupt（迸出火焰）in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted, to steel. The Bessemer converter（转炉）made possible the mass production of steel. Now three to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes.
Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits（矿床）of iron ore in the Messabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior. The Messabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels.
Barges and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to storages on the southern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. With surprising speed Indiana and Ohio became major steel-manufacturing centers. Steel was the basic building material of the industrial age. 1. What’s the title for the passage （Please answer within 10 words.）
2. Which of the sentences in the passage can be replaced by the following one
If there had been no steel, there couldn’t have been so great a development in railway industry.
3. Fill in the blank in the passage with proper words. （Please answer within 5 words.）
4. Tell the reason why rails should be made of steel instead of iron. (Please answer within 20 words.)
5. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.
