B

試題分析：考查部分倒裝句。本題中的“so+形容詞/副詞”放在句首的時候，后面的主句使用部分倒裝的形式。句意：偵探對那個晚上還帶著墨鏡的人是如此的好奇，以至于他決定跟蹤著他。后面使用部分倒裝的形式，故B正確。
點評：部分倒裝即只把謂語的一部分（如助動詞、情態(tài)動詞等）放到主語前，或把句子的強(qiáng)調(diào)成分提前。
Nor did he let the disease stop him from living the kind of life he has always dreamt about（疾病沒有使他放棄過上夢想中的生活）
1) 以否定詞開頭的句子要求部分倒裝。注意下列句子中助動詞或情態(tài)動詞提前、甚至補(bǔ)充助動詞的用法：
例：Not until yesterday did little John change his mind.（小約翰直到昨天才改變了主意。）
In no country other than Britain, it had been said, can one experience four seasons in the course of a single day.（據(jù)說除了英國世界上沒有哪個國家能讓人在一天中感受到四季變化）
2) 以否定副詞開頭并加狀語放在句首的句子要求部分倒裝。這些否定副詞有barely, hardly, little, seldom, scarcely…… when, never, no sooner…… than, rarely, no more, not nearly, not only等以及only。
Only in the country can you learn the “true English”.
3）一些如scarcely……when, no sooner ……than, hardly……when引導(dǎo)的主從復(fù)合句主句要求使用過去完成式。
注意：在部分倒裝句中，只有助動詞、情態(tài)動詞或連系動詞to be可以置于主語之前，其它部分都要置于主語之后。
