地點狀語的定語從句用法
連詞 含義 說明
where 在……地方 通常表示一個確定的
wherever 無論什麼地方
表示“任何地方”
anywhere 無論何處
everywhere 到處
(1)地點狀語從句由where,wherever,引導,
如:We must camp where we can get water.
我們必須在能找到水的地方露營。
(2)地點狀語從句與定語從句的區別 :
在於分句在句中作什麼成分。作狀語,則是狀語從句;作定語修飾名詞,則是定語從句
where引導定語從句時,從句前應有一個表示地點的名詞作先行詞;而狀語從句前則無需先行詞。
如:
Go back where you came from.(where引導地點狀語從句)
你從何處來到何處去。
Go back to the village where you came.(where引導定語從句,修飾village)
回到你來的那個村子裡去。
判斷:
①We went home, where we had dinner.此句是where引導的"非限制性"定語從句,這裡"where"= at home(先行詞是home)從句還原" we had dinner at home"全句譯:我們回到家,在家裡吃了頓飯.
②I walk into the canteen where students are eating此句也是where 引導的定語從句,與上句不同之處在於此句是一個"限制性"定語從句.全句譯:我走進了這個同學們都在吃飯的食堂。(限定說明了是一個什麼樣的食堂)
③地點狀語從句與定語從句其本身屬性就不同:地點狀語從句相當於大的副詞;定語從句相當於大的形容詞,副詞是用來修飾動詞的,
例: you can go where you want to go . 你可以去你想去的地方。
(3)地點從句一般位於主句之後,但為了強調,也可以放在句首。
With a car,a person can go where he pleases and when he pleases.
有了汽車,人可以想去哪兒就去哪兒,想什麼時候去就什麼時候去。
And where there is shale there is likely to be oli.
哪兒有頁岩,哪兒就可能有石油。
定語從句還是狀語從句的區別
一、where引導定語從句時, where是關係副詞, 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.
This is the house where I lived two years ago.
We will start at the point where we left off.
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.
Make a mark where you have any doubts or questions.
I found my books where I had left them.
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於竹子生長。
