"China is FAR from the United States." I once asked 10 teachers at the best ESL (English as a Second Language) school in the United States (I shall not name it, for I don't want to make other schools feel bad): Is "far" an adjective or an adverb in that sentence? Five teachers replied: "No problem. It's an adjective." Of course, the other five told me: "No problem. It's an adverb." I thanked all ten teachers with respect and gratitude. May I ask the same question of YOU? Thank you.
