Question

句中goes on,in
What follows applies only to those dictionary offices where firsthand research goes on— not those in which editors simply copy existing dictionaries.
就是不明白来goes in which是什么,为什么用它!

Answer 1

goes on = takes place 发生
in which = in the offices 这里的which是指（那些）编辑室
全句：接下来的只适用那些进行第一手研究的字典编辑室,而不适用那些编辑们只照抄现有字典的编辑室.
这句是在说编辑字典的两类人,一类是进行研究的,另一类则是抄袭他人的.
