1. Only if you put the sun there did the movements of the other plants in the sky make sense.只有当你把太阳放在中心位置上，天空中其他行星的运动才能说得清楚。 这是一个倒装句，当only + 副词/ 介词短语/ 状语从句放在句首时，为了加强语气，句子需要使用部分倒装。如：

1）did I see the headmaster at school.

2）can we succeed.

3）can you enjoy the fresh air.

4）I wake up

提示：当only 修饰主语时，句子不用倒装。如：

Only Tom knows the answer. 只有Tom知道答案。

辨析：only if…与if only…

Only if…意为“只要，只有”，通常引导陈述语气的真实条件从句。

If only…意为“但愿，要是…就好了”，常引导虚拟语气的条件句或感叹句。 Only if you study hard will you pass the test. 译___________________________ If only I were a bird. 我要是只鸟该多好啊。

练一练：

1）_______ you eat the correct foods______be able to keep fit and stay healthy.

A. Only if;will you B. Only if ;you will

C. Unless; will you D. Unless; you will (08江苏)

2) Look at the trouble I am in! If only I _____ your advice. (03上海)

A. followed B. would follow C. had followed D. should follow

2. He placed a fixed sun at the center of the solar system with the planets going round it and only the moon still going round the earth.他把太阳固定在太阳系的中心位置上，而行星则围绕着太阳转，只有把月球仍然绕着地球转。

with the planets going round 是with+宾语+宾补的结构，在句中作状语。 with + n. /pron.+形容词/ 副词/ 介词短语/ 不定式/ 现在分词/ 过去分词

1） He left with the door open. 译_________________________________________
