今天我們要學的詞是 tug-of-war.
tug-of-war 指的是拔河游戲,常用來指雙方的爭奪戰(zhàn)。 The tug-of-war between congressional Democrats and the Trump administration for further information and material pertaining to the Russia probe is expected to continue. 國會民主黨人與特朗普政府之間還會為了有關俄羅斯調查的進一步信息和材料進行更多的拉鋸戰(zhàn)。
Western diplomats say Macedonia, like the Balkans as a whole, has become part of the tug-of-war between Russia and NATO. 西方外交官說,馬其頓就像整個巴爾干半島一樣,已經成為俄羅斯和北約之間互相爭奪的一部分。
