where引导的状语从句和定语从句的区别
where引导地点状语从句直接修饰主句的谓语动词,而在定语从句中where作为关系副词要跟在表示地点的先行词后面,即此时有明显的地点名词。
◆When solving the problem a second time, you’d better be more careful where you made a mistake.
=When solving the problem a second time, you’d better be more careful in the place where you made a mistake. 再次解决这个问题时,你最好在上次出错的地方更仔细一些。
(1)unless从句的谓语只能用肯定式;unless和if…not同义,unless是书面语,if…not是口语,二者通常可以换用。
◆We will have a picnic in the park this Sunday unless it rains or it’s very cold. 除非下雨或天很冷,否则我们将在本周日去公园野餐。
◆My parents don’t mind what job I do as long as I am happy.
我的父母不在意我从事什么工作,只要我高兴就好。
(2)条件状语从句的时态
在条件状语从句中,常用一般现在时表将来含义;现在完成时表即将完成之后的情况;一般过去时表过去将来的含义。
◆If everyone does his part, the project will surely be a success. 如果大家都尽责,这个项目肯定会成功。
[典例] (重庆高考单项填空)Half an hour later, Lucy still couldn’t get a taxi ____________ the bus had dropped her.
where 解析:句意:半小时后,露西仍然没有从下公交车的地方打到出租车。根据the bus had dropped her及句意可知,此处引导地点状语从句,故填where。
