在英語中,常用win來表達(dá)“奪冠”“奪金”。同學(xué)們最常見“奪冠、奪金”的英文表達(dá)是“win the game/win the championship/win the gold medal/win the firstprize/become(be) the champion/come first”等。

又如,But if he's out there every day and playinghard, you should praise his effort regardless of whetherhis team wins or loses.(2019年高考英語浙江卷)
但瀏覽《中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》關(guān)于2022北京冬奧會(huì)的相關(guān)英文報(bào)道后發(fā)現(xiàn),除了使用wm,take外,還可以用claim, clinch, earn, grab, snatch, secure, bag, pocket, fin-ish等,表示“奪冠”。
冬奧會(huì)開賽第二天,中國(guó)隊(duì)首開記錄(open host'saccount),獲得東道主的第一塊金牌。請(qǐng)看China Dai-ly的兩則英文報(bào)道:
Wu Dajing spearheads thrilling mixed team relay tri-umph as Team China grabs its first gold of the Games.武大靖帶領(lǐng)中國(guó)隊(duì)奪得奧運(yùn)首金。
China's short-track speed skaters claimed the host'sfirst gold medal of the Beijing Winter Olympics in the in-augural 2,OOOm mixed team relay on Saturday.周六,中國(guó)短道速滑選手在北京冬奧會(huì)2000米混合接力賽中為東道主奪得首枚金牌。
兩天后,中國(guó)又添一金。China Daily這樣報(bào)道:China's Ren Ziwei won the men's 1,000- meter shorttrack speed skating final at the Beijing 2022 WinterOlympics on Monday night, earmng the host country itssecond gold medal of the Games.周一晚,中國(guó)選手任子威在短道速滑男子1000米決賽中獲勝,為中國(guó)贏得了本屆冬奧會(huì)的第二枚金牌。
從以上的英文報(bào)道中可以看出,grab,claim,win,earn四個(gè)動(dòng)詞表達(dá)的均是“奪冠/奪金”之意。下面筆者以北京冬奧會(huì)期間China Daily的相關(guān)英文報(bào)道為例,總結(jié)并梳理一下“奪冠/奪金”的英文表達(dá)及其相關(guān)用法,同時(shí)附上Collins詞典的英漢釋義。
