It is lunch time. Vivian and her mum are in a nice restaurant . They are sitting at a small table by the window. Vivian is having a hamburger with fries. Vivian's mother is having spaghetti. They enjoy their lunch every much. After lunch they want to go to a toy shop so they go into a shopping mall to find one. There is a guard standing at the entrance. Vivian's mum asks him about the way.

There is a guard standing about _??_ the entrance ~ 是錯 (missing a preposition in front of "the entrance")
stand about (verbal phrase) = stand somewhere and do nothing

Format: ask somebody about something

Vivian's mum asks him about the way.

媽媽在進入商場,看見有一保安員站在門口,她便問保安員怎麼去商場內的 toy shop

way 在這句子, way = 路線,方向 ( the way to toy shop)

Do you know the way to the post office? 你知道去郵局怎麼走嗎?

3樓..謝謝你讓我學到新一個phrasal verb - stand about
可以我查了字典..stand about就只是個phrasal verb,後面也要加prep.
這是yahoo字典的例句
Some young people were standing about at the gate. 有幾個年輕人閒站在大門口。
第4個我想了一會也覺得是about,但總是覺得缺乏了什麼
例如the way "to go there"..
