Looking into the drawing room, she saw a scene of confusion over by her writing desk. 

【翻译】她向客厅里望去,看见写字台旁边那儿一片混乱。

over 是个“方位副词”,表示离说话人一段距离的某个位置,用作名词的后置定语。就本句而言,over 作定语修饰 a scene of confusion,它跟by her writing desk 分别作定语。又如:

Finally I spotted it, in a dark corner over by the piano.  (本句,over 和by the pianao 作定语,分别修饰 corner。)

最后我在钢琴旁的阴暗角落里发现了它。

来自柯林斯例句

此外,地点方位副词作后置定语,修饰名词,是英语中比较常见的现象。例如:

地点副词(here,there, over there, in,out,up,down,below,above,upstairs,downstairs,indoors,outdoors,等)可作定语,一般要后置。

    The building there looks very grand.那边的那座楼看起来很壮观。

    Write down your name on the sheet here.把你的名字写在这儿的这张纸上。

    Read the questions below and prepare for them.读下面的问题并准备回答。

    Have you got the riddles above? 你明白上边的谜语了吗?

修饰see.。You can use over to indicate a particular position or place a short distance away from someone or something. 在那边 eg: He noticed Rolfe standing silently over by the window. 他注意到罗尓夫默默地站在窗旁。 John reached over and took Joanna's hand. 约翰伸过手去牵起了乔安娜的手。
