各位网友注意:千万不要认为,定语从句用where 引导,其先行词一定是place 之类的名词!有些不表示地点的名词,也完全可以使用where 引导的定语从句修饰。当先行词从“明显地点”到“模糊地点”时。例如:situation(情况,情形), case(情况), point(地步), stage(地步), book(书本), story(故事), trick(把戏), play(戏剧), film(电影) 等。此外,网友句中的paradise,意为“乐园;天堂”,应该是个比较明显的地点概念。

举例和讲解如下:

Can you think of a situation where this idiom can be used? 你能想出一个使用这个成语的情况吗?

I have heard of a case where a soldier riding a bus did not offer his seat to a woman with a baby. 我听说这样一个情况,有个士兵坐车,一位妇女抱着娃娃他不让座。

Noise is coming to the point where we can't put up with it. 噪音快到我们无法忍受的地步。

The mature trader arrives at a stage where most trading actions have become nearly automatic. 成熟的交易者能达到这个地步,大多数交易行为几乎是自动的。

Your face is like a book where people may read strange matters. 您的脸正像一本书,人们可以从那上面读到奇怪的事情。

This was a film where Spielberg used real actors instead of toys.

在这部电影中,他使用了真正的演员,而不是玩具。

下面,我再用story (“故事”)做一分析。它在使用过程中,能否表示“地点”?回答是Yes。我们举例对比:

【第一组】story用作定语从句的主语或宾语,此时关系词用that或which:

He will tell you a story that might make you shiver.

他要给讲一个也许会使你不寒而栗的故事。

A story that completely involved me for the rest of the evening.

一个让我在那天晚上余下的时间完全沉浸其中的故事。

This is a story that happened in 17th century Europe.

这里要讲一个发生在17世纪欧洲的故事。

He tried to act out a story that he had read.

他尽力生动地复述他读过的故事。

【说明】以上例句中,story后面的定语从句都用了that(which也可),因为关系词在定语从句中作主语(前3句)或者在定语从句中作宾语(最后一句)。

【第二组】story用作定语从句的地点状语,此时关系词用where:

A rags-to-riches story is a story where a very poor person works very hard and, as a result, becomes very rich and successful.

一个白手起家的故事是这样的一个故事,一个很穷的人工作非常努力,因此变得非常富有和成功。

I heard one story where a man had been working as a bonded laborer for 50 years.

我听说过一个故事,一个人干了50年包身工。

Write a short story where the hero is your dad.

写一篇以你父亲为主角的小故事。

I read a story where a yong man died to protect his girlfriend. 我读了一个故事,一个年轻人以死保护他的女朋友。

【说明】以上例句中,story后面的定语从句都用了where,因为关系词在定语从句中作地点状语,或者说,在定语从句中不缺主语或宾语等成分,缺的地点状语。where的含义是:“在这个故事中”。

For Audrey it was a paradise where she could hide from the world with her beloved family, work in her garden and take long walks in nature.

参考译文:对Audrey来说,它是极美的地方/极乐世界/天堂,在那里她能和她深爱的家人从这个世界隐藏起来,并在她花园里工作在大自然种长途步行/散步。

可以100%肯定以上关系副词when引导定语从句,修饰名词paradise,根据paradise为抽象名词,因此被关系副词引导定语从句修饰名词已经远远超过地点名词了。

关系副词引导定语从句,其先行词可以是抽象概念名词也可以具体事物/地点名词.凡是能表示在“在...里面/在...地方的”都可以用关系副词where引导定语从句

(1)名词为抽象名词dream

He dreamed a terrible dream where he was being pursued by a person with a sharp knife in his hand

(2)为具体事物名词

He picked up a book where he found an interesting article.

(3)具体地点名词

He likes the place where he lived three years ago

(4)名词为抽象名词point

He has come to the point where his girlfriend had to finish with him.
