One way to hold this phrase: a line of runners waiting, and one of them standing a few steps in front. The whistle has not gone yet, so nobody has run at all — and already that person is closer to the finish. Everything this phrase says lives in that moment. The advantage is there before the effort starts, it came from outside the runner, and it only covers the first stretch; after that, everyone runs.
可以想成：一排人站在起跑線上等，其中一個人站得比大家前面幾步。哨音還沒響，誰都還沒跑，但那個人已經離終點近一點了。這個詞要講的東西，全在那一刻裡。好處在努力開始之前就有了，它是別人給的或自己先佔的，而且它只管前面那一小段——哨音一響，後面還是各跑各的。所以英文說某人 had a head start，是在說他起點不同，不是在說他一定贏。
