本期主题【竞选伙伴】
Running mate
Hillary Clinton has selected Tim Kaine, a US senator from Virginia, as her vice presidential running mate. She officially introduced her new partner to voters at a campaign rally on July 23. Clinton and Kaine seemed relaxed and approachable during their first appearances together. Kaine’s fluent Spanish, which he exercised in his first speech with Clinton, is likely to appeal to Latino voters.
希拉里•克林顿选择了弗吉尼亚州的参议员蒂姆•凯恩作为竞选伙伴。7月23日，希拉里正式向选民介绍了新搭档，在首次合体露面后，希拉里和凯恩看上去很放松，也很亲切。凯恩在和希拉里的第一次演讲中展现了流利的西班牙语，这可能会吸引更多的拉丁裔选民。
马上学：“竞选”常用动词run，race和bid表示。当遇到总统、副总统候选人搭档竞选，我们会用到ticket这个词表示“某某配、某某组合”，如Clinton-Kaine ticket。
