Across the door
- B.
Through the door
Correct Answer
B. Through the doorExplanation
The phrase "through the door" suggests movement from one side of the door to the other. This implies that someone or something is going from one area to another by passing through the door. On the other hand, the phrase "across the door" does not convey the same sense of movement. It suggests that someone or something is positioned on the opposite side of the door, without necessarily passing through it. Therefore, "through the door" is the more appropriate and correct answer.Rate this question:

The correct answer is "along the street." This phrase indicates movement in a linear direction parallel to the street. It suggests that the person or object in question is following the path of the street, moving in the same direction as it. "Through the street" would imply movement from one side of the street to the other, while "across the street" would suggest movement from one side of the street to a different location on the opposite side.Rate this question:

Across the road
- B.

Correct Answer
A. Across the roadExplanation
The phrase "across the road" means to go from one side of the road to the other side. It implies moving in a straight line or perpendicular direction to the road. On the other hand, the phrase "through the road" does not make sense in this context. It could imply going under or over the road, which is not the intended meaning. Therefore, the correct answer is "across the road."Rate this question:

Last summer, we spent two weeks driving around Africa. At the end of the holiday, we bought tickets to sail by ferry from Spain to Morocco. When we arrived at the port of Algeciras, a lot of cars were waiting for the ferry. After four hours, we finally drove onto the boat. At first, the sea was calm, so I started reading a magazine. Suddenly, the ferry started moving violently. One man fell off his chair and a woman started crying. The boat was moving up and down... it was horrible. Everybody was feeling sick. Finally, we arrived in Morocco after five hours on the ship. Next time we’re going by helicopter! READING 1. The text mentions transports that can be used in several places.
