尝试

    中国奥运拳击冠军邹市明向挑战世界拳王的目标又迈近了一步。周六晚，邹市明战胜了哥伦比亚选手德拉罗萨，赢得世界拳击组织特设金腰带。请看本报昨日的报道：

    Flyweight Zou Shiming’s win in a gritty 10-round bout over Colombia’s Luis De La Rosa on Saturday night has boosted the Chinese boxer’s determination to go for a shot at the world title.

    Zou, who claimed the vacant World Boxing Organization international flyweight title with the win, fought all rounds of his first ever 10-round match against Colombian veteran De La Rosa, in a show of increasing confidence and competence.

    报道中的go for a shot at就是“尝试”，也可以说take/have a shot at，例如：

    He’s proven himself to be a talented actor and now he’s going for a shot at directing.

    他已证明自己是个有才华的演员，现在他要尝试当导演。
