1. It’s very large, about 480 square kilometres.
square kilometre, 表示“平方公里”。例如:

2. It’s famous for the strange shape of its tall rocks.
be famous for 是一个固定短语,意为“因……而闻名;以……著名”。主语既可以是表示人的词语也可以是表示地点的词语。主语是表示人的词语时,表示以某种技能或特征而闻名;主语是表示地点的词语时,表示以某种特产或某处名胜古迹而著名。
如:
The town is famous for its hot springs.
He is famous for his sweet voice.
shape 表示“形状”。例如:
What’s the shape of the building
That cloud has a strange shape.
3. It woke everybody up.
wake的过去式为woke,过去分词为 woken。wake up是固定短语,意为“叫醒……”。当wake up的宾语是名词时,宾语可放在wake和up的中间或up的后面;当wake up的宾语是代词时,宾语只能放在wake和up的中间。例如:
Don’t wake up the baby.
= Don’t wake the baby up.
Let’s wake him up now.
4. We came out without making any noise, ...
without doing sth. 表示“没有做某事”。
make noise 表示“产生噪音,发出声响。
例如:
He walked past me without making any noise.
5. We thought somebody was moving about.
somebody 表示“某人”,用在肯定句中。
在否定句和疑问句中要用anybody。例如:
Is there anybody playing football on the playground
6. But it was a pity that it was cloudy.
“It’s a pity that + 从句”,表示“很
遗憾 ...…”。例如:
It’s a pity that he failed the exam.
7. I pulled a leaf off a plant, ...
pull 作动词时,可意为“拉,拖,拔”,表示把物体用力向自己的方向拉并使其移动。和pull相对应的词是push,意为“推”。如:
Don’t push the door. Pull it, please.
pull sth. off …表示“从…...拉下...…”。例如:
The child pulled a flower off the plant.
当谓语动词表示肯定的概念,如“希望、相信、知道、说”时,其后面的句子一般用that引导。that 没有任何词汇含义,只有语法功能,目的是使读者清楚后面的句子是宾语从句。多数情况下 that 可以省略。
例如:
I hope (that) it will snow this winter.
Betty thinks (that) trees can improve the air.
常接 that 宾语从句的谓语动词有:believe, expect, explain, feel, hear, hope, imagine, prefer, promise, report, say, see, tell, think, under, stand, warn, wish等。
