PASSAGE THREE [br] In Para. 3, what does the phrase "jockey for position" mean?
选项
答案
It means competing for more advantages.
解析
语义题。根据题干定位到第三段倒数第二句。jockey作动词时意为“激烈竞争(争夺最佳位置、最有利形势或最大权力)”。足球作为拉美各国展现国家力量的一个阵地,充满着人们的情感,也是容易出现暴力的地方。因此,jockey for position意为compete for more advantages,即赢得足球往往意味着更多的国家利益,影响着拉美各国的关系,故答案为“It means competing for more advantages.”。
