"。但要是我人在加拿大，那这句话就要说成 "<span word="Live">Live</span> <span word="down">down</span> <span word="there">there</span>. "，因为水牛城是在加拿大的南方。所以用 <span word="up">up</span> 或 <span word="down">down</span> 全视南方或北方而定.</p><p>3. <span word="I">I</span> <span word="went">went</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="Europe">Europe</span> <span word="last">last</span> <span word="month">month</span> <span word="because">because</span> <span word="my">my</span> <span word="friends">friends</span> <span word="live">live</span> <span word="over">over</span> <span word="there">there</span>.</p><p>我上个月去欧洲，因为我的朋友住那儿。</p>
