We do not remember days, we remember moments.
我们往往记住的不是某一天,而是某个时刻。
a far cry from
相差甚远,与…相距甚远。
虽然这个短语的起源已不可考,但重要的是理解这里的cry不是“哭泣”,而是“呼喊”的意思。把这层意思代入进去,即在“很远的地方呼喊”,这个短语的意思就不难理解了。它通常用来表示两者之间存在巨大的差异或区别,也可以用来形容某事物与期望或预期之间相去甚远。
与之意思相近的短语还有:
poles apart from:与…极不相同。
vastly different from:与…大不相同。
light years away from:与…相差甚远。
The dilapidated house stood before them, a far cry from the beautiful pictures they had seen online. The paint was peeling, the windows were cracked, and the garden was overgrown with weeds. It was clear that the reality was nowhere close to the perfect dream home they had imagined. Disheartened, they realized they would need to keep searching for a house that matched their expectations.
那个破旧的房子矗立在他们面前,与他们在网上看到的美丽照片相差甚远。墙上的油漆剥落,窗户破裂,花园里长满了杂草。很明显,现实与他们想象中的完美梦想家相去甚远。他们心灰意冷地意识到他们需要继续寻找符合他们期望的房子。
