Not a day did she spend without having some unpleasantness with waiters in the hotel.9.在强调状语时（1）当句首状语为方位词或拟声词，谓语动词为go，come等表示位置转移的动词时句子须倒装。例如：1）Up went the plane.2）In came the chairman and the meeting began.注：如果主语是代词则不发生倒装。例如：1）Out they rushed！2）Lower and lower he bent.（2）当句首状语为表示地点的介词词组时，句子须倒装。例如：1）Round the corner walked a large policeman.2）Under the table was lying a half-conscious young man.（3）当句首状语由“only 副词”，“only 介词词组”，“only 状语从句”构成时，句子须倒装。例如：1）Only yesterday did he find out that his watch was missing.2）Only because there were some cancelled bookings did he get some tickets in the end.（4）当句首状语为here，there，now，then等时，句子须倒装，主语是代词时，句子不用倒装。例如：1）Here is a ticket for you.2）Now comes your turn.3）Here he comes.（5）以关联词so （that）开头的句子中，句子须倒装。例如：1）So small was the mark that I could hardly see it.2）So quickly did the workmen finish their work that they were given a bonus.3）So much does he worry about his financial position that he cant sleep at night.注：在该结构中，“so 形容词”是表语的前置：“so 副词”是状语的前置。10.在直接引语之后在叙事性书面语中，直接引语后常跟asked Mary，answered John，said the old lady，grunted Peter之类的词语。在这些词语中，动词常的主语之前，主语是代词时，不用倒装。例如：1）“What do you mean？” asked Henry.2）“What do you mean？” he asked.11. often，many a time等表示频度的状语置于句首时例如：Often did th
