far from 表示“远非”“绝非”“完全不”（含否定意义）时，它后面可以跟名词。如：
He is far from a fool. 他决不是笨蛋。
也可以跟动名词，但这个动名词好像主要是 being（且有时可以省略）。如：
This question is far from being settled. 这个问题远没解决。
Your work is far from (being) satisfactory. 你的工作一点也不令人满意。
Far from being kind, he was most cruel. 他非但不善良，相反却很残忍。
下面是 far from doing sth 的例句：
Far from agreeing with him, I was shocked by his remarks. 我很不同意他的意见，听了他的话我很吃惊。
▲另外，far from doing sth 有时还可表示instead of doing sth，意思是“（不但）不做某事物（反而……）”。如：
Far from enjoying dancing, he loathes it. 他不仅不喜欢，而且还讨厌跳舞。
Far from taking my advice, he went and did just what I had warned him against.
他不但没有听从我的劝告，反而恰恰去干了我警告他不要去干的事。
