问题: 定语从句

the train ____ she was traveling was late.
A.which B.where C.on which
选哪个?为什么?

解答:

C
She was traveling on the train.→the train on which she was traveling
A肯定不能选,B不能选是因为She was traveling on the train.这里的“on the train”是一种方式,而不是一个地点。on the train=by train
e.g.: Do you know any place (where/in which/that) I can get a drink?
这句话中两者可以替换,它们都是指地点。

关于补充问题,“on which=where”在这句话中不能等同。原因同上,是指方式,而不是指地点。
