1. Excuse me, could you please tell me how to get to the bookstore
打扰一下，请你告诉我如何去书店好吗？（教材第17页）
本句是问路或问处所的常用句型，此处 excuse me 用以礼貌地引起
他人的注意，也表示尊重对方。
Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to No.1 Middle School 打扰了，
你能告诉我怎样去第一中学吗？
Language Points
(1) 问路的常用句型：
Excuse me, how can I get to …
Excuse me, could/can you tell me the way to…
Excuse me, could/can you tell me how I can get to…
Excuse me, could/can you tell me how to get to…
Excuse me, could/can you tell me where…is
Excuse me, which is the way to…, please
Excuse me, where’s…, please
Excuse me, is there a/an… near here
(2)Could you please… 意为“请你……好吗？”，是表示有礼貌地提出请求的交际用语，please 后接动词原形。
e.g. Could you please tell me where the bookstore is 请你告诉我书店 在哪里好吗？
Would/Will you please do sth.
Would you like to do sth.
肯定回答常用 Sure./Of course./No problem./I’d love/like to. 等。
否定回答常用 Sorry, I’d love/like to, but… 等。
(3)could 为情态动词，意为“能；会；可以”，在此句中表示委婉的语气。它是 can 的过去式。在表达请求时，could 与 can 没有时态上的差别，只是 could 的语气比较委婉和客气。
e.g. —Could I use your pen 我可以用一下你的钢笔吗？
—Certainly. 当然可以。
how to get to the bookstore 为“疑问词+动词不定式”结构。
e.g. Could you tell me how to get to the train station 你能告诉我怎 样去火车站吗？
(4)疑问词 who, which, when, where, how, what 等与动词不定式连用，常用于 tell, show, know, teach, learn, explain 等后作宾语,“疑问词+动词不定式”结构所表示的动作通常是未发生的，所以在转换成宾语从句时，通常要加情态动词或用将来时态。
e.g. He didn’t know what to say.=He didn’t know what he should say. 他不知道该说什么。
2. Sure, just go along Main Street until you pass Center Street. 当然，就沿着主大街向前走，一直到你经过中心大街。（教材第17页）
go along 意为“沿着……向前走”，多指沿街、道路、河边或堤坝等往前走，这是一个指路的常用表达。
表示“沿着……向前走”，还可以用 go down/up。
e.g. Go along this road, and you’ll find the bank at the end. 沿着这条路一直 走,在尽头你就能找到那家银行。
常见的指路表达方式还有：
(1) Walk along/down this road/street. 沿着这条路/街向前走。

“从……旁边过去”。

【拓展】
past 用作介词时，还表示“（时间）超过， 在……之后，晚于”。
