"A country mile" nghĩa là gì?

một mình thế này ai chơi??? Photo by Jeremy Bishop on Unsplash.
'A country mile' là một khoảng cách rất xa (thời gian, không gian địa lý, số liệu...).

Ví dụ
The Mourinho phase was a very sad one for United fans, as his negative (tiêu cực) style of football and absurd (lố bịch) media comments saw fans turn against him. Solskjær seemed the perfect replacement (thay thế hoàn hảo) simply (đơn giản là/đơn thuần là) to see out the season, with the main aim to have the fans united prior to the arrival of a marquee manager to take over in the summer. Mauricio Pochettino and Zinedine Zidane were amongst the favourites (ứng cử viên sáng giá) to take over from the Norwegian (người Na Uy, ám chỉ Solskjær), but having exceeded all expectations by a country mile, Solskjær’s appointment (bổ nhiệm) as full-time manager seems inevitable (không thể tránh khỏi, chắc chắn xảy ra).

The company recently missed on earnings (thất thu) by a country mile, reporting $0.98 in adjusted EPS (accounting for restructuring expenses and all the sort), well short of the analyst (nhà phân tích) expectations (mong đợi) of $1.28.

In fact, in nine out of last 10 years, Nifty’s earnings growth has trailed nominal GDP growth by a country mile.
