老师说 abroad 不能用于名词作定语(即不作前置定语),但可用于名词作定语(即作后置定语)。但从未见过这样用例子啊!能举出这样的例句来吗?谢谢!
刘老师:
▲是的,一些表地点和时间的副词,可以放在名词后作定语。此时,相当于一个定语从句。例如:
People abroad are making two kinds of comments about China's economic reform. 外国人对我国的经济改革有两种评论。
He's quite ignorant of things abroad. 他对国外的情况很不了解。
The wealth of our country seems inexhaustible to many people abroad. 对许多海外人士而言,我们国家的财富似乎是无穷尽的。
▲常见的这类表示地点或时间的副词,有:here, there, over there, in, out, up, down, below, above, upstairs, downstairs, indoors, outdoors, now, then, today等,可作定语,但一般要后置。
The building there looks very grand. 那边的那座楼看起来很壮观。
Write down your name on the sheet here. 把你的名字写在这儿的这张纸上。
Read the questions below and prepare for them. 读下面的问题并准备回答。
Have you got right the riddles above? 你明白上边的谜语了吗?
Every night the man upstairs came home late. 每天晚上那位楼上的男子很迟回家。
Young people today face a very difficult future at work. 如今的年轻人面临着充满困难的工作前景。
▲相当于定语从句:
The building (which stands) there looks very grand. 那边的那座楼看起来很壮观。
Every night the man (who lived) upstairs came home late. 每天晚上那位楼上的男子很迟回家。
