今天我們要學的詞是 afield.

afield 是遠離（家園、話題）的意思。 A Nasa satellite tracking the Australian bush fires has shown that the smoke shrouding many of the country's major cities has moved as far afield as parts of China, Mongolia and Russia. 美國國家航空航天局的一顆追蹤澳大利亞叢林大火的衛(wèi)星顯示，籠罩在澳洲許多大城市的濃煙已經(jīng)漂移到遠在中國、蒙古和俄羅斯的部分地區(qū)。

In the U.S. more than 3 million shelter animals are adopted every year. But if you can't find the animal you've been waiting for locally or even nationally, you can look even farther afield. 美國每年有300多萬收容所的動物被收養(yǎng)。不過如果你在附近甚至全美范圍內(nèi)找不到你期待的寵物，還可以往更遠的地方看看。
