■本站特約作者  劉永科

下面是人教版英語必修三第5單元中的一個句子：The coast north of Vancouver has some of the oldest and most beautiful forests in the world. 溫哥華北面的海岸上有著世界上最古老和最美麗的森林。對north of Vancouver這個短語，有3個問題需要討論：

1.“north of +地點名詞”是個什么詞組？

2.“north of +地點名詞”在句子中能做什么成分？

3. north of Vancouver表示in the north of Vancouver，還是to the north of Vancouver？

第1個問題：“north of +地點名詞”是一個of介詞短語，又在of前加了方位副詞north，構成了一個含有副詞修飾的介詞短語，表示方位。例如：a railway north of the city城北的一條鐵路。類似的詞組還有：

“south of +地點名詞”

“east of +地點名詞”

“west of +地點名詞”

“northeast of +地點名詞”

“northwest of +地點名詞”

“southeast of +地點名詞”

“southwest of +地點名詞”

第2個問題：“north of +地點名詞”，在句中可以作定語、表語和地點狀語。例如：

【作定語】

The coast north of Vancouver has some of the oldest and most beautiful forests in the world. 溫哥華北面的海岸上有著世界上最古老和最美麗的森林。

第3個問題：north of Vancouver表示in the north of Vancouver，還是to the north of Vancouver? 根據句子意思，應該是to the north of Vancouver，因為海岸是“在溫哥華市區外的北部”，而in the north of Vancouver則是“在溫哥華市區內的北部”。此外，方位詞前有了介詞還需要加定冠詞the。一般來說，“north (south, east, west) of +地點名詞”表示“在該地點名詞的外部”，等于“to the north (south, east, west) of +地點名詞”。若表示在該地點名詞的內部，則用“in the the north (south, east, west) of+地點名詞”。
