关于237where的用法还没讨论过。xdjm们帮帮忙！谢谢：）
237. It seems likely that a number of astronomical phenomena, such as the formation of planetary nebulas, may be caused by the interaction where two stars orbit each other at close range.
(A) may be caused by the interaction where two stars orbit each other
(B) may be caused by the interaction between two stars that each orbit the other
(C) are because of the interaction between two stars that orbit each other
(D) are caused by the interaction of two stars where each is orbiting the other（E）
(E) are caused by the interaction of two stars orbiting each other
ans: E
og解释： In A, the phrase the interaction where two stars orbit each other is imprecise and illogical, suggesting that the interaction is a place where the orbiting occurs.
这里where做地点定语从句。
如果补全从句应该是： the interaction where（= in which） two stars orbit each other
即：two stars orbit each other in the interaction.
这句话怎么错了？我没看出有逻辑错误呀！？
In D, the word where has no clear or logical referent, and each is orbiting the other is awkward and unnecessarily wordy; it could be replaced by the clearer and more concise orbiting each other.
先不看从句是否简洁。og说应为where没有指代对象所以不对（前提是og把它看成了定从）。
但是这句话也可以看成地点状语呀？！地点状语中的where不用有指代对象，只是引出地点，这样看D不就没有错了吗（忽略简洁问题）。
盼解答，谢谢！：）
