体育英语|clean sweep: 全胜

11月1日，第四届东亚运动会田径比赛燃起硝烟。中国选手在首日决出的9项金牌中狂掠8金，女子万米比赛中国新秀包桂英在离终点还有300米时加速超越日本老将大南博美，夺得冠军。

请看外电报道：Bao Guiying has led a clean sweep for China of the East Asian Games' opening athletics^{1 events, with victory in the women's 10,000m.}

Clean sweep一般讲解为彻底扫除、清除，如：When they reorganized the company, they made a clean sweep of all the holdovers. 当他们重新改组公司时，撤换了所有些留用职员。

而在体育比赛中，clean sweep 可引申为全胜、压倒性的胜利。

比如：We got several first prizes in the sport meet, which was a clean sweep this time.（大家在运动会上得了好几个1、，这次是大胜了。）
