只剩站位的

    周一阿里巴巴集团在纽约举行首次路演，吸引了众多华尔街大腕到场，原来预计500人出席的会场挤满了800多名投资者。此次融资额达210亿美元以上，有望成为美股有史以来最大的IPO。请看本报昨日的报道：

    Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. founder Jack Ma on Monday surprised potential investors at a standing-room only event in New York by addressing governance concerns over the Chinese e-commerce giant, including a controversial 2010 spinoff of its online payment service.

    Ma made the remarks at a luncheon at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in New York in front of hundreds of hedge funds, mutual funds and other institutional investors, as the company kicked off a two-week, multi-city marketing blitz for its initial public offering (IPO).

    报道中的standing-room only就是“只剩站位的”，指某活动参与的人数太多，所有的椅子都坐满，只剩站的地方了。
