Writer's Note
"Look through" is an intransitive and inseparable phrasal verb.
「Look through」是一個不及物且不可分的片語動詞。

Example 2: She looked through the collection of books at the new bookstore.
Example 3: Both parties looked through the contract for the transfer of ownership of the property.

例子 2：他們在演講前looking through他們的筆記。
