Victory

拜登的勝利(victory)可望有利中美關係,美國不再咄咄逼人,不再無理打壓中國的貿易、科技和製造業,結束中美冷戰。

名詞victory很簡單,就是解「勝利」,贏得比賽、選舉、戰爭等。常用victory over或者victory against,帶出贏了誰。例句︰Many European leaders are relieved by Biden's victory over Trump.(拜登戰勝特朗普,許多歐洲領導人感到寬慰。)The battle marked the first China victory against Japan and was a turning point in the war.(那場戰役標誌着中國抵抗日本的第一次勝利,是該場戰爭的轉捩點。)

Victory可以配搭很多形容詞︰形容大勝,可以用great、landslide、crushing;險勝則可以用narrow。例句︰It was a landslide victory for Biden in the presidential race.(拜登在總統競選中以壓倒性優勢獲勝。)The company won a narrow victory over its biggest rival in the competition.(該公司在競爭中險勝了其最大的競爭對手。)

動詞方面,victory可以配win(贏)、lead(帶領)、sweep(橫掃)等等。例如,He led the team to victory in the 1995 tournament.(他帶領球隊在1995年的聯賽中取得勝利。)
