"in which"和"on which"都是英语中的短语,但它们的用法略有不同。
"in which"通常用于介词短语中,表示某个事物发生的地点或情况。例如:
The restaurant in which we ate was very expensive.
The house in which I grew up was in the countryside.
"on which"通常用于表示某个事件发生的具体日期或时间。例如:
The day on which we met was a sunny Saturday in May.
The moment on which she realized her mistake was very embarrassing.
另外,"on which"也可以用于指代一个物体或地方上的某个特定位置。例如:
The table on which the book was resting was too small.
The building on which the flag was flying was the town hall.
总之,"in which"和"on which"都是用于描述某个事物发生的地点、时间或位置,但用法略有不同。
in which:在......里面;on which:在......的上面,或具体时间的某一天
on which 和 in which 都可以用来引导定语从句,修饰先行词,区别在于介词on/in 这取决于先行词的搭配
比如:
I can't forget the day on which we had a party.这个句子,先行词是day,原本的搭配是on the day.
I like the room in which there are many toys.这句话的先行词是room,词组搭配是in the room。
例句:
1.The school (that/which) he once studied in is very famous.
= The school in which he once studied is very famous.
2. I have a dresser in my bedroom, which there are many cosmetics on.
= I have a dresser in my bedroom on which there are many cosmetics.
固定搭配:
The plane may be several hours late, in which case there’s no point in our waiting. (固定搭配:in the case)
The little creature in which scientists are interested is known as ET.
(这里"be interested in"是词组原因)
例题:
I can’t believe that the restaurant, ______ I have eaten such wonderful meal, is going to be close down. A. where B. at which C. about which
【解答】选B。这个是非限制性定语从句,at which在功能上等于where,但就本题而言只能选at which。因为at which I have eaten such wonderful meal是一个插入语,where固然可以引导,但是由于前面有了一个逗号,就只能用at which了。“我难以相信我曾经在里面美美地吃过几顿大餐的饭店就要关张了。”非限制性定语从句主要就是先行词+逗号“,”+介词+which或者是先行词+逗号“,”+which,它和限定性定语从句的最显著区别一个是有逗号,一个是非限制定语从句总有which。
