A hard task
I barely made the 8:30 a.m. Saturday train to Huntington, a town on the north shore of Long Island.

Пояснение
Разбор.
В данном задании проверяется знание фразовых глаголов английского языка. Пропуск находится в последнем предложении текста: And the two of us set ______ on our adventure.
Для описания начала путешествия или поездки в английском языке используется устойчивый фразовый глагол set off. В контексте предложения герои отправляются в путь на машине: I was getting inside his car at the station. And the two of us set off on our adventure.
Рассмотрим остальные варианты:
- Вариант set round не существует как устойчивый фразовый глагол с подходящим значением.
- Фразовый глагол set over обычно означает назначение кого-либо руководить кем-то другим, что не подходит по смыслу.
- Фразовый глагол set down означает «записывать что-либо» или «высаживать пассажиров», что противоречит контексту начала приключения.
Таким образом, единственным верным лексическим сочетанием для обозначения начала пути является set off.
