同学你好~
to the Dover → to Dover
Dover 是地名，前面不需要加定冠词 the。

went into a boat → boarded a boat
board 是更地道的表达，表示“登上（船、飞机等）”。

he found himself to the Calais → he found himself in Calais
Calais 是地名，前面不需要加定冠词 the，且用 in 表示“在某个地方”。

to the Paris → to Paris
Paris 是地名，前面不需要加定冠词 the。

where driver left him something to eat and went away → where the driver left him something to eat and drove away
补充了 the，因为 driver 是特指；went away 改为 drove away，更符合语境。

On getting off near Paris, he stopped another car which not to take him into the center of Paris, but to Perpignan → On getting off near Paris, he stopped another car, which did not take him to the center of Paris but instead went to Perpignan
which not to take him改为 which did not take him，语法更正确；but to Perpigna 改为 but instead went to Perpignan，表达更清晰。

sent him home by authorities→ sent home by the authorities
sent him home 改为 sent home，因为主语是 the boy，不需要重复 him；补充了 the，因为 authorities 是特指。

The boy played truant and traveled 1,600 miles. After hitchhiking to Dover, he boarded a boat to find somewhere to sleep. The next morning, when he woke up, he found himself in Calais. Then, he hitchhiked to Paris, where the driver left him something to eat and drove away. On getting off near Paris, he stopped another car, which did not take him to the center of Paris but instead went to Perpignan. There, he was picked up by a policeman and sent home by the authorities.

祝同学学习进步~
