It took me twice as long to get home.我应该怎么细致理解这个句型,请举一反三.想真正学好这个句型.
我理解是花了双倍时间回到家,只是感觉句子很别扭,不太容易记住并应用到实际,所以要想真正了解这个句型.
一: it take sb.有一点印象是花某人时间,可是忘记了.
二：as long to get home是介词短语还是句子来理解.

Answer 1

确实别扭,因为缺了上下文.必须是和什么标准相比,不然twice as long没有意义.如：
It usually only takes ten minutes to get home from work. But because of the snow, today it took me twice as long to get home.
平常只需要花十分钟从工作单位回家.但是今天因为下雪,我花了两倍的时间才到家.
Washing dishes with my husband takes twice as long than doing it alone.
和我丈夫一起洗碗比我自己洗慢一倍.
再给你一个不同的twice as的例句：
John is bad already. Jack is twice as bad.
补充：
1. take在这里的意思是需要.如果后面跟的宾语是时间,就是需要多长时间.也可以跟其它宾语,如：
It takes a bus ride and a long walk to get home.
回家需要乘公车还要走一长段路.
2. as是副词,twice as一起修饰long.twice as long是took的直接宾语,me是间接宾语.to get home是动词不定式作后置的主语.
