从since when说起，谈谈特殊的定语从句 【典例分析】 2007年山东省高考英语试题考了如下一个定语从句： The book was written in 1946, ______ the education system has witnessed great changes. A. when B. during which C. since then D. since when 【试题解析】按照句意，此处应选C项，但它却不能引导一个定语从句，所以答案为D项。 【同类例句】 1. [05山东] He was educated at a local grammar school, after which he went to Cambridge. = He was educated at a local grammar school, and after that he went to Cambridge. 2. At home, he never seems to have time until after 10:30 pm, by which time his children have gone to bed. 3. We were next-door neighbors for three years, during which time we met only twice. 4. It occurred to him that it would save a lot of trouble to destroy the advertisement, in which case, he would have to explain to Peter. 5. I was told my work was unsatisfactory, at which point I submitted my resignation. 6. He believes in public ownership, which idea I quite opposed to. 7. He is studying economics, which knowledge is important today. 8. He stood by the window, from where he could see what was happening outside. = He stood by the window, and from there he could see what was happening outside. 【小结点拨】 ①带有this, that的短语，引导定语从句时，要将this, that变为which；②带有here, there的短语，引导定语从句时，要将here, there变为where；③带有then, now的短语，引导定语从句时，要将then, now变为when。
