引导定语从句的where是否要更改为when或that的疑惑?

Ever since it's been thus that we score these debates style and substance right ? Which is sad.

You know in many ways I can feel the pain that Ronald Reagan felt as being an old guy.

especially in this business where there's a lot of young folks.

But it was in 1984 where Ronald Reagan diffused the whole idea that he was too old to be president.

Let's take a listen to this.

I will not make age an issue of this campaign. 

1)句中的动词score是什么含义,如何理解?

2)作为一个老人...=as an old guy, 为什么上句有being 呢?as being an old guy, 和 as an old guy 含义有什么区别?

3) in 1984 where Ronald Reagan diffused...where是否误用,是否要改为when或that?

4) make age an issue of this campaign. 这里是宾补,而不是make的另一种双宾结构吧?

1 score:给...打分、评判...。

2 as当作为解时,为介词,后接名词或动名词。当动名词为being时,通常省略,但也可以不省略。不省略则语体较为正式。所以本句中,as being an old guy = as an old guy.

3 本句为强调句型,规范的英语这里where应改为that。

在it is...that...强调句型中,that并不是修饰被强调的成分,而是修饰主句主语it的。当被强调的成分为主语或宾语时,that为it的定语从句(关系分句)。当强调的是状语成分时,that从句为it的同位语从句(名词性从句)。

在where有一种非正式用法,即可以引导名词性从句,意义等于that。例如:

The Free Dictionary:

where:

informal: that

I read where they're closing down the paper mill. (where=that)

I see where highway 49 is to be closed. (where = that)

where的这种用法有人认为有问题,有人认为是非正式语体。

所以,网友的这个句子中,在该用that的地方用了where, 属于非正式语体。有人认为是有问题的,有人会认为这是非正式语体。改为that则是规范的英语了。但这里不能用when。因为这不是定语从句。

4 这是复合宾语结构,不是双宾语结构。这从逻辑就可判断,你不该问这个问题。
