Go the distance

    坚持到底

    斯蒂芬 库里带伤坚持两个赛季不容易，接下来他要歇一歇了。这位NBA的MVP已决定不代表美国队参加巴西奥运会。请看本报昨日的报道：

    NBA MVP Stephen Curry is healthy enough to help pulverize the Cleveland Cavaliers — amassing 18 points, nine rebounds and four assists while playing just half of Sunday's 110-77 blowout in Game 2 of the finals — but he's going to need some rest after going the distance in two straight seasons.

    In order to recover from the sprained right MCL injury that kept him out of four games in the first two rounds of the playoffs, Curry has already informed USA Basketball he will not play for Team USA during the 2016 Summer Olympics in Brazil, according to Bay Area News Group columnist Marcus Thompson II.

    报道中的go the distance就是“坚持到底”。例如：

    You need perseverance to win in politics and I doubt if he can go the distance.

    在政治上取胜需要矢志不移，我怀疑他能否坚持到底。
