大家好，今天我们分享一个非常有用且地道的表达——as the crow flies, 这个短语的含义不是指“当乌鸦飞的时候”，其正确的含义是：
as the crow flies 笔直地，成直线地，沿直线
From here to the office, it’s about 20 miles as the crow flies, but it’s more like 30 miles by car since you have to wind around the mountain.
从这儿笔直地到办公室只有20英里，但是乘车到时候有30英里，因为你必须绕山路。
The villages are no more than a mile apart as the crow flies.
这些村庄直线距离相隔不超过一英里。
From here to the village it’s five miles as the crow flies, but it’s a lot further by road.
从这儿去村庄直线只有5英里，但是走马路远得多。
This mountainous area has always been remote, although it is not far from Tehran as the crow flies.
这个山间的区域总是很偏远，尽管它直线距离离德黑兰不是很远。
