兩者之間的差距
把空隙從實體搬到數字和處境上:兩邊差得越多,中間那個洞就越大。
big difference · noun · B1
A big difference between two groups, amounts, or situations.
差距
Picture two things with nothing in between: a missing tooth, a break in a fence, the space you can see daylight through. English keeps that hole and moves it into other dimensions — the distance between two amounts, the piece missing from a plan, the empty stretch between two events, the low pass between two peaks.
