 今天学的词组是landslide 1。 Landslide的意思是山崩,塌方。比如hundreds of houses were destroyed in a landslide -- 山崩摧毁了数以百计的房屋。 自然界的landslide意味着灾难和恐惧。 不过选举中的landslide,也就是压倒的优胜, 对竞选者来说就是求之不得的了。 


巴西总统席瓦尔在2006年决选中获得61%的选票。新闻报道说, "Brazil's president won in landslide," 意思是巴西总统以压倒性的多数当选。 美国历史上的landslide victory -- 多票当选的例子也不少。远的不说, 1988年老布什以426张选举人票当选总统。他的民主党对手只得到111张选举人票。对Bush来说,竞选结果绝对是压倒的优胜 -- a landslide victory。今天学的词组是landslide...
