• distant

  The most neutral, general word for something far away; works for both physical places and periods of time, and is common in both plain and literary writing.

  语气最中性、最通用，既可指空间上遥远的地方，也可指时间上遥远的年代，在平实和文学性文字中都很常见。

  In the distant past, this valley was covered by a thick glacier.

  在遥远的过去，这个山谷曾被厚厚的冰川覆盖。

• further 本词

  Actually the comparative form of 'far'; it says a point is a greater distance than one already mentioned, and is common when giving directions or comparing distances.

  本质上是far的比较级，表示比前面已经提到的某个地点更远，常用于指路或比较距离，而不是单独描述“远”本身。

  The library is a bit further down this street.

  图书馆就在这条街再往前一点的地方。

• remote

  Stresses isolation and difficulty of access rather than just distance; typically describes places cut off from towns, roads, or other people.

  强调偏僻、难以到达，而不仅仅是距离远，通常用来形容远离城镇、道路或人群、与外界隔绝的地方。

  They live in a remote village, hours from the nearest town by dirt road.

  他们住在一个偏僻的村庄，沿土路要开好几个小时才能到最近的城镇。

• faraway

  An informal, often literary or dreamy word, usually placed right before the noun, suggesting an exotic or storybook kind of distance rather than a measurable one.

  较为口语化，也常见于文学作品，通常紧接在名词前面，唤起一种异域或童话般遥远的感觉，而不是可测量的实际距离。

  She dreamed of visiting a faraway country she had only read about.

  她梦想着去一个只在书中读到过的遥远国度。

Distant, further, remote, and faraway all mean far away. Distant is the most neutral word. Further is the comparative of 'far', meaning farther than a reference point. Remote stresses being isolated and hard to reach. Faraway is informal or literary, suggesting an exotic, dreamlike distance.

这四个词都可表示空间或时间上的“远”，但语气和用法不同：distant最中性通用；further其实是far的比较级，只表示比某个参照点更远；remote强调偏僻、难以到达；faraway偏口语和文学化，常带梦幻或异域色彩。此处不涉及remote指电视、空调等“遥控器”的名词用法。
