今天我們要學的詞是running mate。 Running mate, 是競選伙伴的意思。 麥凱恩參議員已被認定是2008年共和黨總統(tǒng)候選人?,F(xiàn)在"He has begun getting together a list of names to choose a running mate." 當然,總統(tǒng)候選人的running mate就是副總統(tǒng)候選人,vice presidential candidate。
那么,您肯定想知道麥凱恩參議員心目中的running mate到底是誰,可是您恐怕要失望了,因為"McCain has not given any hint of his choice on a running mate." 在麥凱恩正式宣布他的running mate之前,很多人一定會不斷地猜測Who is going to be his running mate?
