what does "that" refer to in this sentence?
Hello, here's the sentence:
And yet, such digging becomes easier if we start from the assumption that in every tool we create, an idea is embedded that goes beyond the function of the thing itself.
what does "that" refer to here? Is it equal to "...an idea that is embedded goes beyond...."?
thank you!

Could you tell me what's the difference between "to" and "by" ?

It's almost as if
Hello,
Here's a line from Friends when the chair stucked at the door:
Rachel: What took you so long?
Ross: It's almost as if this wasn't built for a quick getaway.
What's the meaning or function of "It's almost as if"? Does that equals to "It seems like"?
Thanks in advance:)

one quick question
Can "overcrowded" describe people rather than some places? I met with this sentence today "the prisoners are overcrowded". But i didn't find this usage in my dictionary. So is the sentence wrong or it's OK to say it in this way too? Wish someone can give me an answer. thank you in advance.

please help me!
The sentence "It was as much of a success as we had hoped" is correct. Why can't say "it was a success as much as we had hoped"?

what does this sentence mean?
His eyes were darting and furtive and you disbelieved him before he even opened hjs mouth.
Does that mean you disbelieved him until he opened his mouth or you disbelieved him even though he opened his mouth?
Can somebody explain this part for me? thank you very much!

check out my first English poem
In the alley of my mind
I stare the warmness of your hand
I throw the rotten food left in the kitchen
Next Friday the agony will come to an end

what does "have me sent to a cracker factory" mean?
I read this in the book The Naked Face. When Moody wouldn't tell his secret, he said "You'd have me sent to a cracker factory if i told you. I always say if you're gonna shoot off your mouth, make sure it's loaded first."
What does that mean?
Thank you in advance :)
