knock over

美國網球公開賽女單比賽繼續進行，頭號種子、俄羅斯選手莎拉波娃以2比0輕取來自馬達加斯加的蘭德里安特菲，順利晉級第三輪。比賽剛開始時，莎娃對于大風天氣有些不適應，她在頭兩局都出現了發球雙誤的情況，不過隨后她調整了狀態，最終只用了49分鐘就擊敗對手過關。請看外電報道： Wispy Maria Sharapova was one strong gust away from getting knocked over, though not out, at the U.S. Open. "I'm really glad I had a piece of chocolate cake last night," she joked, "otherwise I would have been blown away. It made me heavier." Nearly as thin as her racket, the top-seeded Sharapova had more trouble with gales up to 36 mph playing tricks with the balls than she did with any of the shots by Dally Randriantefy in a 6-1, 6-0 rout Wednesday that took all of 49 minutes. 文中的knocked over/down意思是"弄翻；撞倒"，如：She was knocked over/down (=hit so that she fell to the ground) by a hit-and-run driver/ a truck.（她被一個/一輛闖了禍就逃的司機/卡車撞倒了。）又如：Who knocked over this vase?（誰把這個花瓶打翻了？） （中國日報網站編）
