So these students go on a ropeway to cross the river to school.
One 11-year-old boy, Liangliang, crosses the river every school day. But he is not afraid. “ I love to play with my classmates. And I love my teacher. He’s like a father to me.”

Explanation
1. There is no bridge and the river runs too quickly for boats.
河上根本没有桥，而且水流很急，不适宜小船摆渡。
（1） no “完全不、根本没有”，在这里构成否定句。当no 用于构成否定句，主要用于名词前，强调否定其后面的名词。如：
There is no apple in the fridge. 冰箱里没有苹果了。
(2) run 在这里表示“液体流动”。它在不同的
语境中有不同的用法和含义。例如：
Who runs the business? 生意是谁经营的
“run”表示 “管理；经营”
② John run a car into a park. John 把车开进了公园。
“run”表示 “使行驶；驾驶”
③ The road runs north.这条路伸向北方.
“run”表示 “延伸”
④ “run”可以做名词 “奔跑,路程”
Let's go for a run across the fields. 咱们去跑步，跑过那片田野吧。
It is an hour's run by train from here to London. 从此地到伦敦搭火车有一小时的行程。
2. One 11-year-old boy, Liangliang, crosses the river every school day.
一个11岁的男孩—亮亮，每天过河上学 。
11-year-old 为多个词汇构成的复合形容词，用连字符“-”链接，用来修饰名词 boy。这种结构还有很多，例如：
a four-day trip 一个四天的旅行
a 30-page book 一本30页的书

注意：这里的“year、day、page”都是用单数。
3. The bus ride is never boring because I always talk to my classmates.
坐公交车从来不会无聊，因为我可以经常和
同学聊天。

在这里，ride作为名词，表示“乘车、行程”
ride 也可以做动词，表示“乘车、乘坐”如：
I often rides my bike to school.
我经常骑自行车去学校
take 用法
1. take 表示“乘、坐”某一交通工具。如：
My father usually takes a bus to work.
我爸爸常乘公共汽车去上班。
Which bus do you often take?
你经常乘哪一路公共汽车？
注意: take和 by都有“乘、坐”之意。take
是一个动词, 后面接具体的交通工具, 且在
表示该交通工具的名词前一般应有冠词等
修饰语; 而 by是一个介词，它后面所跟的
表示交通工具的名词前一般不可用冠词等修
饰语。by 短语在句中修饰动词等作状语。
如: 格林先生经常乘火车去上班。
Mr. Green often goes to work by train.
Mr. Green often takes a train to work.
2. take 表示“花费时间”之意, 其常用句型为
“ It takes sb. some time to do sth. ”，
意为“某人花多少时间做某事”, 注意后面的
动词前的 to 不可丢掉。如：
It takes her twenty minutes to walk to
school every day.
她每天步行去上学要花二十分钟的时间。
It takes me half an hour to do my
homework. 晚上我要花半小时做作业。
3. 含 take 的短语
take exercise 运动; 锻炼 take a walk 散步
take a look (at) 看一看 take down 取下
take a seat 坐下, 坐坐 take out 拿出
take a rest 休息
take away 拿走
take a vacation 度假
take off (脱掉;飞机等) 起飞
take photos 照相, 拍照
