【答案解析】
1. B. 因为以否定词或半否定词开头的句子，要用部分倒装，排除A和D。另外，no sooner…than…(一…就…)是固定答搭配，且no sooner分句中的谓语通常用过去完成时，而than分句中的谓语用一般过去时。
2. B. 因为由前句判现在还没有去舞会，是将来时态；又因为在条件状语从句中要用一般现在时代替一般将来时，所以正确答案是B。If she does, so will mine. =If she goes to the ball, my girl friend will go, too.
3. D. 当not only…but also…不是连接两个不同的主语时，以not only开头的句子要用部分倒装，排除A和C。又因为it is necessary后的that从句一般要用should +动词原形，所以只有D正确。
4. A. 主句是名词时，其后要倒装，但是代词时不用倒装。
5. A. 因为是nowhere否定词，以否定词开头的句子，要用部分否定。
6. A. 因为以否定词not until开头的句子要用部分倒装，排除B和D；又因为2003年12月是过去时间，用一般过去时，所以选A。
7. A. 因为“only+状语”放在句首时，句子要用部分倒装；但这个“状语”是从句时，从句不要倒装，所以只有A正确。
8. D. 因为“nor +情态动词、助动词或be+主语”表示“…也不”之意，又由前文的saw可知hear也是一般过去时态，所以用助动词did。
10. C. 因为以here, there, up, down, in, out, now, then, away, off等副词开头时，常用完全倒装。句意是：我们要坐的公共汽车走了，我们将不得不等下一辆。
11. B. 因为这里不是表示“…也一样”，而是对对方所言表示赞同：“的确如此”，所以不用倒装。
12. D. 句子以副词down开头，本来应该要用完全倒装，但由于主语为代词，所以不用倒装。
13. D. 因为以作状语的介词短语开头，句子要用完全倒装；又hang作“(某物) 悬挂在”解是不及物动词，不用于被动语态，排除B和C；又因one map与dozens of pictures没有包含关系，排除A。
14. B. 因为以否定词at no time(永不, 在任何时候都不)开头，句子要用部分倒装。
15. A. 因为以否定词not until开头，句子用部分倒装。
