在今天的长城游中，大家尽管问我任何问题，不要拘束。
fell free是英语口语中一个常用表达。若有人让你feel free to do something, 就是让你无需拘束，只管按照自己的意愿去做某事。
e.g. A: Can I use your bathroom? 我可以用一下你的卫生间吗？
B: Yes, feel free. 可以，请随意。
2. As far as I know, there are no man-made objects as big as this.
据我所知，再没有像它这样大的人造物体了。
as far as I know是一个固定的表达方式，还可以说so far as I know, 意思是“据我所知”。
e.g. As far as I know, Jack’s got twin sisters.
They’re not coming today, so far as I know.
