It took us 2 hours to walk through the forest/tunnel.   我們花了2小時步行穿過森林（遂道）
當(dāng)表示橫向跨過一條河流、街道等時，用across。如：

through 則強(qiáng)調(diào)在一個上、下、左、右皆有東西的三維空間里移動，含有“in”的意義，

誤：I don’t agree your idea at all.

正：I don’t agree with your idea at all.

正：I don’t agree with you at all.

解析：agree“同意”，是不及物動詞，后面不能直接跟賓語，它的后面常跟介詞with，表示“同意……”，“與……一致”，with后面跟指人或表示意見的詞。如：

He doesn’t agree with me. 他不同意我的意見。

I agree with what you said. 我同意你說的話。

[課文要點(diǎn)] No, I don’t agree with this. (P52)

十四. 那男孩太小，搬不動那只箱子。

誤：The boy is too young not to carry the heavy box.

正：The boy is too young to carry the heavy box.

解析：too…to…的意思是“太……（以致）不能（做）” ，這個句型雖然沒有否定詞，但表示否定意義，不宜再與表示否定意義的副詞not連用。如：

[課文要點(diǎn)] Teenagers are too young to make their own decisions. (P52)

十五. 我一進(jìn)入教室，鈴就響了。

誤：As soon as I entered into the classroom, the bell rang.

正：As soon as I entered the classroom, the bell rang.

解析：inter意為“進(jìn)入”，是及物動詞，相當(dāng)于come into，后面直接跟進(jìn)入的地點(diǎn)名詞，不可再重復(fù)用into。如：

Please enter the house by the back door. 請從后門進(jìn)屋。

He has no choice but enter that college. 他不得不進(jìn)那所大學(xué)讀書。

[課文要點(diǎn)] My parents have always taught me how important it is to work hard at school and enter university. (P54)
