Where 的成分
Reader's Digest看到这样一句话：
Where at first all that was demanded of him in school was a sign, now Matthew's teachers wanted a sign plus a vocalization of the word the sign represented.
请问老师，此处的where 该怎么理解？是第一句中主语从句的一部分吗？

Where at first all that was demanded of him in school was a sign, now Matthew's teachers wanted a sign plus a vocalization of the word the sign represented.
原句，where 从句中含有一个定语从句，去掉定语从句，简化句子后：
Where at first all was a sign, now Matthew's teachers wanted a sign plus a vocalization of the word the sign represented.
这里 where 是连词，通常情况下引导地点状语从句，有时可以引申一下，作为主句发生的 “条件”，意为“在......的情况下；在......方面”。
Where people were concerned, his threshold of boredom was low.
（如果）涉及人的事情，他便极易感到厌烦。
