stands

在8月25日進行的歐洲冠軍杯第三輪資格賽次回合的三場比賽的爭奪中，主場作戰的國際米蘭1比1戰平了烏克蘭的頓涅茨克礦工隊，并以3比1的總比分輕松出線。在空空的看臺上，只有國米老板莫拉蒂和主席法切蒂等俱樂部高層成為這場比賽的觀眾。請看外電報道： There was no celebrating in the stands after Inter Milan's Champions League qualifier on Wednesday. Inter's 1-1 draw with Shakhtar Donetsk, which gave the Italian team a 3-1 aggregate win, was played in an empty San Siro stadium because of a ruling that bars fans from Inter's first four Champions League matches. The penalty was assessed by the Union of European Football Associations after AC Milan goalkeeper Dida was hit by a flare thrown by a fan during a quarterfinal against Inter last season. 句中的"stands" means a large structure at a sports ground, usually with a sloping floor and sometimes a roof, where people either stand or sit to watch a sports event.意思是"看臺"。如：Fighting broke out in the stands (= stand) five minutes before the end of the match.（比賽結束前五分鐘看臺上爆發了打斗。）又如：We've got the tickets for the North Stand.（我們有北看臺的票。） （中國日報網站編）
