总结
如果说A与B之间有个fine line，那么就表示：虽然A与B很相像，但其实有很大区别，而且通常情况下，A比B要好。这里的fine line也可以说成thin line。不过，“A好B坏”这种分法也不是绝对的。比如下面这两个例子：
As a ?parent, I ?knew that there was a fine ?line between ?panic and ?caution.
作为一位家长，我知道吓唬孩子和提醒他们还是有区别的。
It's a fine line between being a backseat driver and a considerate passenger.
坐在后座的情况下，指手画脚和好心提醒还是有区别的。
n.食物的一份&adj.帮助人的，辅助的
