副词开头要例装，人称代词则如常。

only修饰副介状，位于句首半倒装。

否定意义副连词，“既不…也不”须倒装。

表语前置主语长，衔接自然常倒装。

such代词做表语，引起主谓要倒装。

Not only开头句，前一分句须倒装。

had，were，should虚拟句，省略if半倒装。

口诀8

lie lay lain躺／lay laid laid放下；产蛋／lie lied lied撒谎，这几个词在拼写上很容易混淆，有人编了这样的口诀：

规则的“撒谎”，不规则的“躺”，“躺”过就“下蛋”，“下蛋”不规则。

“规则”指规则变化，“不规则”即不规则变化，如lie作“撒谎”解时，是规则变化，即其过去式和过去分词直接加-d；“躺过”的“过”指的是过去式，即lie的过去式lay是“下蛋”的原形；“下蛋”是不规则变化。

口诀10短文改错

（一）见到谓语找主语，主谓一致找状语

见到名词想多数，可不可数要记牢

见到平行看结构，形式功能要对称

见到代词找指代，指代通常不合理

小小of常抓的点，of前名词adj最高级

（二）谓与非谓经常混

谓语句中就一个

其余动词非谓语常见形式有三种

v-ing/ v-ed 和to do

主宾通常v-ing

现在分词表主动

过去分词表被动

目的要用不定式

改错要想拿高分

语法口诀要记牢
