今天我们要学的词组是underdog。 Under是在下面,dog是狗,underdog指的是在比赛、竞争和冲突中被认为是处于劣势的人。 比如美式足球第41届超级杯大赛,芝加哥熊队奋战印第安那波利斯小马队。美国媒体赛前报道说,"The Chicago 1 Bears are the underdog," 意思是说芝加哥熊队处于劣势。


美国政治史上也有不被看好的underdog。比如美国第33届总统Harry Truman 1948年竞选连任,起初民意调查的支持率很低, "Truman was 2 considered 3 the underdog." 可是大选之日,杜鲁门出乎意料地击败对手。由此可见underdog很可能只是暂时的。 今天我们学习的词组是underdog...
