"Come within earshot" = Đến gần trong tầm nghe -> Di chuyển gần để nghe được chuyện người ta đang nói hoặc làm.

Ví dụ
“WELCOME to Sai Khao. Welcome to Sai Khao. Have a seat. Food will be ready soon,” quips Nonphan Promsuk excitedly as soon as I come within earshot. There’s a delicious smell wafting in the air as I make my way through the spacious open-sided zinc-roofed bulding.

"Where have you been? I’ve been waiting for ages. Fortunately, this wonderful gentleman volunteered to keep me company," my mother says the moment I come within earshot. Introduced to Tan Ah Boy, I learn that the former fisherman from Kuala Kedah is the oldest resident in the nursing home.

Inside the park, opposing rows of speakers line a path that connects the area’s large central fountain (suối nước) to the nearby municipal (thuộc thị xã) building. As visitors come within earshot, they’ll hear the collective breaths–or attempts at it–from a few dozen people of all ages, fitness levels, and neighborhoods. The goal is to create what Brooklyn-based artist Sari Carel calls a “canopy (mái che, vòm) of breathing”.
