以下是出自CNN的一個例句
a split second =一瞬間；一剎那
例句：Paul was a split second away from being hit by the car before his friend p
ulled him out of the way.
保羅在他朋友拉他離開車道前差一點被車撞。
想要請教的地方是，這個句子中的
was away from做何種解釋用？？
麻煩了！！

多少away from being hit

離''被車撞這件事''只有a split second的(時間)距離=離''被車撞這件事''非常近=差一點被車撞

謝謝各位，感謝exempt,講的很清楚
