英语作文如何表达速度

　　Bat就是：蝙蝠。Hell就是：地狱。Like a bat out of hell按字面翻成中文就是：就像一只从地狱里飞出来的蝙蝠。发明这个说法的人可能是想像一只蝙蝠在扑打着翅膀，竭尽全力地飞，以逃避地狱之火。Like a bat out of hell现在可以用在各个方面。下面我们要举的两个例子就能说明问题。第一个例子是一群孩子在打篮球，一不小心把旁边住家的玻璃窗打破了。这房子里的主人说：

　　刚才举的那个例子是说小孩犯了错误生怕受到惩罚而赶紧逃跑。我们再给大家举一个 like a bat out of hell的例子。这是一个参加过二次世界大战的人在说他死里逃生的情况。

　　例句3: We were marching on this road to the front when this German fighter plane came over the hill ahead of us like a bat out of hell. We were lucky: he was flying so low and so fast he didnt even see us. And he was gone before we could even turn our heads.
