Answers -- One Possible Version
To get to the park, you just have to
cross Center Street.

to get to the park 是目的状语前置，此句子
中的just起增强语气的作用，和此处的have to
表示“只要，仅需”。
Language points
2. It is very quiet and I enjoy reading there.
enjoy 表示“从中得到乐趣；欣赏；喜欢”，
后接动词时候，动词用-ing形式，即enjoy doing
…,表示喜欢做某事，享受做某事带来的乐趣。
e.g. I enjoying listening to soft music.
我喜欢听轻柔的音乐。
拓展：
enjoy oneself 表示 “玩的高兴，愉快”
e.g.: Our classmates enjoy ourselves.
Neighborhood 意为“附近，附近地区，街区

e.g. 我的街坊们都很友好。
My neighborhoods are friendly.

In the neighborhood 在附近
e.g.在附近有一家中国餐馆
There is achinese restaurant in the neighborhood。
3.spend 花费（时间，金钱等）。 1)Spend+（时间，金钱）+on sth.e.g.杰克每天花很多时间做作业。Jack spends a lot of time on his homework.
2)spend +(时间，金钱）+ doing sth
e.g.我妹妹每天花很多时间读书
My sister spends much time reading books.
4.Money 是不可数名词，作单数看
e.g. 钱是重要的，但并不是一切
Money is impor1,but it isn’t everything
