11月1日,第四届东亚运动会田径比赛燃起硝烟。中国选手在首日决出的9项金牌中狂掠8金,女子万米比赛中国新秀包桂英在离终点还有300米时加速超越日本老将大南博美,夺得冠军。
请看外电报道:Bao Guiying has led a clean sweep for China of the East Asian Games' opening athletics1 events, with victory in the women's 10,000m.
Clean sweep通常解释为“彻底扫除、清除”,如:When they reorganized the company, they made a clean sweep of all the holdovers. 当他们重新改组公司时,撤换了所有的留用人员。
而在体育比赛中,clean sweep 可引申为“全胜、压倒性的胜利”。
例如:We got several first prizes in the sport meet, which was a clean sweep this time.(我们在运动会上得了好几个第一名,这次是大胜了。)
