2. Well, it’s on the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )coast near Hong Kong. On the coast 意味“在海岸”。 On是介词,意味“在,接近,在…旁”。如: 武汉是长江沿岸的一个大城市。 Wuhan is a big city on the Yangtze River.

There are lots of o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ld buildings and churches to visit. 有许多古老的建筑和教堂可以参观.
本句中的to visit 是动词不定式,做后置定语,修饰 buildings and churches. 我们经常使用动词不定式放在名词之后做后置定语,但是其实这个动词和名词之间是动宾关系。我们再看这句话,buildings and churches to visit 其实是visit buildings and churches, 只是在某些需要的时候换成动词不定式放在名词之后。
