The pronoun where can be used to modify a noun place, such as area, site, country or Nevada. Where can not modify a "metaphorical" place, such as condition, situation, case, circumstances, or arrangement . In these cases, use "In which" than where.

   WRONG: We had an arrangement WHERE he cooked and I cleaned.
   RIGHT:   We had a arrangement IN WHICH he cooked and I cleaned.

The pronoun when can be used to modify a noun event or time, such as period, age, 1987, or decade. In these circumstances, you can also use "In Which" instread of When.

我是不是可以理解Manhattan这段话的意思是, in which 可以用在具体的实际的时间状语上,地点状语的表达上,但是在抽象的时间状语,和地点状语的表达上,却只能用 IN WHICH.

那么,下面这句话:

            There are times where students should pay all their attention on studying.

句子里面用的where 是不是用错了呢?
