尽管奥运赛场上观众寥寥无几,但中国女子手球队的姑娘们早已习惯了这样的场面。在8月23日结束的小组赛中,中国队以28以23战胜巴西队,两胜两负排名小组第三,从而取得了参加四分之一决赛的资格,晋级八强。外电报道如下:China advanced to the quarterfinals of the Women's Handball competition after beating Brazil 28-23 in their Group A clash today. …They(Brazil)were ignited by Zhai Chao (CHN), the best player in the world last year, who scored four goals in a row to put China ahead. Following her example, the other Chinese players clamped down on the Brazilians and went on a goal frenzy of their own. Clamp down常和on连用,表示“对……施加压力;取缔”,例如:The police clamped down on illegal stock exchange activities in the streets.(警察取缔了街道上的非法证券交易。)名词clamp-down表示“(为防止和压制某事而采取的)严厉政策”。
