scarcely用在句子开头,和when搭配使用时,并表示“一……就”,才会引起倒装.如:
Scarcely had I sat down to eat when the phone rang.
(我刚坐下来吃饭,电话就响了.)
Scarcely a day passes now without some sort of incident involving the old lady.
这个句子中的scarcely显然没有表示“一……就”.
这个句子意思:
几乎没有一天那个老妇人不卷入什么麻烦.但是否定词放句首作状语不是一般都会主谓倒装的的吗?如Scarcely had they left the university campus before soldiers armed with bayonets and rifles charged into the students.也不是和when搭配啊?scarcely�Ƿ
