There is a very big river between their school and the village. There is no bridge and the river runs too quickly for boats.
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 because he loves school. “ I love to play with my classmates. And I love my teacher. He’s like a father to me.”

Language points
1. For many students，it is easy to get to school.
(1)for介词，意为“对于，对……而言”。
例：For us, it is difficult to do it well. 对我们来说，做好这件事有难度。
(2)It's＋形容词＋(for sb.)＋to do sth.做某事(对某人来说)是……的。句中it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式。
例：It's important to learn English well. 学好英语是重要的。
2. There is a very big river between their school and the village.
between 介词，意为“在……之间”。它常用于表示在两者之间。常用短语：between...and...在……和……之间。
例：The bank is between the school and the supermarket.
银行在学校与超市之间。
3. There is no bridge and the river runs too quickly for boats.　
(1)no 作形容词，既可以修饰可数名词单数，相当于not a (an)，也可以修饰可数名词复数或不可数名词，相当于not any。
例：I have no sister.＝I don't have a sister. 我没有姐妹。
There are no classes on weekends.＝There are not any classes on weekends.
周末没有课。
(2)run 作动词，在本句中意为“流淌”。
例：The river runs into our village. 这条河流进我们的村子。
(3)boat 作名词，意为“小船”。常用短语：by boat＝take a boat 乘船。
例：It's a sunny day today. Let's go there by boat.
今天天气晴朗，咱们乘船去那儿吧。
4. So these students go on a ropeway to cross the river to school.
【辨析】cross与through
①cross 作动词，意为“穿过”。它指从某物体的表面的一边穿过到另一边。
例：Don't cross the road until the light is green. 绿灯亮的时候再过马路。
②through 作介词，意为“穿过”。它指从某物体的内部穿过。
例：The travelers went through the forest.旅行者们穿过了森林。
5. One 11 -yea-r old boy, Liangliang, crosses the river every school day.
(1)11- yea-r old是由“基数词＋连字符+单数名词＋连字符+ 形容词” 构成的复合形容词，在句中作定语。复合形容词有两个特点：一是数词、名词和形容词之间要用连字符连接；二是数词后的名词用单数形式。
例：She is a fifteen- year- old girl. 她是一个15岁的女孩。
(2)school day上学日。它表示在学校上学的日子。
例：I can't watch TV on school days. 在上学日期间，我不能看电视。
6. But he is not afraid because he loves school.　
afraid 作形容词，意为“害怕；畏惧”。它常用作表语。
常用搭配：be afraid to do sth.或be afraid of doing sth.害怕做某事
7.Thanks for your last e mail.
thanks for 意为“因……而感谢”，后接名词、代词或动词-ing，相当于thank you for。
例：Thanks for helping me with my study.谢谢你帮助我学习。
