2. The place in going places is a noun in adverbial function.
Such idiomatic uses—which may be more common
in American English than in British—have long
troubled commentators. Vizetelly 1906, for instance,
objects to go places, go any place, go some place, and /
can't find it any place. Many others worry about anyplace,
someplace, noplace. Bolinger 1980 observes that
place is one of a small number of nouns that are idiomatically
drawn into adverbial function. He lists way,
reason, and time as three others; they are nouns closely
associated with the adverbial questions where, how,
why, and when. He constructs a frame, "That was the
he did it," in which the adverbially oriented
nouns place, way, reason, and time will fit idiomatically,
but such quasi-synonyms as location, manner, motive,
and occasion will not. (P740)
----《Webster's Dictionary of English Usage》(1989)
或许跟这段论述有关。名词作状语用。
