from which 与 from where的用法区别

1、Soon after getting off his horse, the captain appeared at the second storey windows, from where he could see nothing but trees. 下马不久,上尉就出现在二楼的窗口了。他从那里除了树木什么也没看到。(引导定语从句)

划线部分相当于…, and from at the windows…不可变为from which…,直接用where不如用from where更具体。

2、She climbed up to the top of the hill, from where she could have a good view of the whole town. 她登上山顶,从那里她可以一览全城风光。(引导定语从句)

划线部分相当于…, and from on the top of the hill或from on the top of which…, 不可变为from which,也可直接用where引导,但语义较为含糊,不如用from where更加生动、形象、具体。

3、We went up to the roof , from where we had a good view of the procession. 我们爬到屋顶,在那儿我们可以一览整个行进队伍。(引导定语从句)

划线部分可理解为and from on the top of the roof或from on the top of which,用from which是不对的,直接用where仍显不具体,不形象。

4、China is the birth place of kites, from where kiteflying spread to Japan,Korea,Thailand and India. 中国是风筝的故乡,在那里风筝传到日本、朝鲜、泰国和印度。

这里from正与下文的spread to构成一个整体,可理解为from near/around this place,如若把from where换为 where显然是讲不通的,改成from which, 能够讲得通,但不太符合英语习惯。      

5、The car stopped suddenly only a few inches from where I stood.那辆小汽车就在我站的地方仅几英寸处突然停下了。(引导状语从句)这里的划线部分中where引导的是宾语从句,与from一起作地点状语从句。

例句1:look over there!some people are standing under the big tree,___ you can enjoy the whole view.   A.which B.from which C where D from where

分析:where 代表 under the tree 这个地方,如果用 which 就只能代表 the big tree, 这句话的意思不是Enjoy the whole view from the big tree. 而是 from under the big tree.介词后接介词短语的例子还是常见的.
实际上这个句子完整的应该是You can enjoy the whole view from the place under the big tree. the place 被省略了。 该句属于定语从句。

例句2:He stood by the window, ______ he could see what was happening outside.

A. where   B. which   C. from which   D. from where
