不難看出,上述試題都考查where引導的定語從句與狀語從句。在第2, 6, 8題中, where引導的是定語從句,答案分別是A, B和D。在第1, 3, 4, 5, 7題中, where引導的是地點狀語從句,答案分別是C, A, B, B和D。那么,如何區別where引導的定語從句與狀語從句呢?筆者認為,可從以下幾個方面加以區別。
一、where引導定語從句時, where是關系副詞,在從句中作地點狀語,其前面有表示地點的先行詞, where引導的'從句修飾先行詞。例如:
The bookshop where I bought this book is not far from here.我買這本書的那個書店離這里不遠。
This is the house where I lived two years ago.這就是我兩年前住的那個房子。 We will start at the point where we left off.我們將從上次停下來的地方開始。
二、where引導狀語從句時, where是從屬連詞, where引導的從句修飾主句的謂語動詞, where前面沒有表示地點的先行詞。例如:
Wuhan lies where the Changjiang River and the Han Jiang River meet.武漢位于長江和漢江匯合處。
Make a mark where you have any doubts or questions.在有疑問的地方做一個記號。 I found my books where I had left them.我在我原來放書的地方找到了我的書。 有時, where引導的地點狀語從句兼有抽象條件含義,可放在主句的前面,而where引導的定語從句則不能。例如:
Where there is a will, there is a way.[諺語]有志者事竟成。
Where there is water, there is life.有水的地方就有生命。
三、在有些情況下, where引導的定語從句可轉換為where引導的地點狀語從句。例如:
A tall building was put up at the place where there used to be a desert.(=A tall building was put up where there used to be a desert.)在以前曾是沙漠的地方蓋起了一幢高樓。
Bam boo grows best in places where it is warm and where it rains often.(=Bamboo grows best where it is warm and where it rains often.)溫暖而多雨的地方最適合于竹子生長。
