周六清晨,土耳其军方发动军事叛变,该政变被土耳其现政府挫败,近3000军队人员被捕。请看本报昨日的报道:
Turkish authorities have rounded up nearly 3,000 suspected military plotters and ordered thousands of judges detained after thwarting a coup by rebels using tanks and attack helicopters to try to topple President Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday.
For several hours overnight Friday violence shook Turkey’s two main cities, as the armed faction that tried to seize power blocked a bridge in Istanbul and strafed the headquarters of Turkish intelligence and parliament in Ankara.
报道中的round up就是“围捕”,round是“圆圈”,这个词组就是“赶到一个圈里”。例如:
The police rounded up all the suspects.
警方将疑犯一网打尽。
