We first went up a mountain to a ridge from where we had fantastic views .
问:这个句子中from where we had fantastic views .这个从句是地址状语从句还是定语从句?我记得定语从句中,关系副词where= 介词+which,由于where为关系副词所以其前不可以有介词,所以此句不是定语从句,如果的话就要把where改为which才对,因而此从句应该是地址状语从句,where为表示地址的名词,那样引导地址状语从句的where都是名词,如此觉得对吗?
你比较一下下面的句子:
1 We first went up a mountain to a ridge from where we had fantastic views .
2 We first went up a mountain to a ridge,and from which we had fantastic views .
3 We first went up a mountain to a ridge,and from there we had fantastic views .
4 We first went up a mountain to a ridge,and from it/that we had fantastic views .
1和2 是定语从句,3和4 是对应的并列句。你感觉句3正确还是句4正确?假如你感觉句4错误,句3正确,那样句1就是正确的,句2就是不对的。原句隐含着从大家站着的地方,大家可以看到...。所以定语从句需要用from where , 而不可以用from which. 但用from that place也是正确的。
