结构:Here/There/Now/Then + 谓语动词 + 主语(名词).
Then came a new difficulty. 随后出现了一个新难题。
【学法点拨】
全部倒装主要分为以下三种情况:

In came our teacher. 我们的老师进来了。
重点句式
(2)表示方位的介词短语位于句首时。
At the foot of the mountain lies a small village.山脚下有一个小村庄。
(3)在主系表结构中,出于强调的目的,把表语提前。
Happy are those who made it. 成功者很高兴。
【误区警示】
当主语是人称代词时,不用倒装结构。
Here they come. 他们走过来了。
