新加坡公开赛前,排名世界第一的女子羽球选手卡罗琳娜•马林称羽球已不再是中国独霸的时代。请看本报昨日的报道:
China’s badminton juggernaut no longer strikes fear among competitors as players now are good enough to “break the Chinese wall” and end its dominance in the sport, world No. 1 Carolina Marin said. “If you compare the past with the present, I want to say that all of the players, we are not scared to play against the Chinese,” the two-time world champion said Monday ahead of this week’s Singapore Open.
报道中的juggernaut就是“不可抗拒的强大力量、主宰者”。例如:
Sheer size and economic momentum mean that the Chinese juggernaut will keep rolling forward, no matter what obstacles lie in its path.
庞大的经济体量和动能意味着巨人中国将举步向前,无论前路存在什么障碍。
