标题:Carney Stands Up to Trump in Trade War Despite the Risks
Canada’s prime minister walked away from what he thought was a bad trade deal with the United States. Many Canadians are behind him, but it will be costly.
正文:On Friday night, Prime Minister Mark Carney of Canada did something that few other world leaders before him have dared to do. After days of intense trade negotiations with the United States, with less than an hour to go on a midnight deadline for a new round of tariffs from the Trump administration, Mr. Carney instructed his negotiators to walk away.
知识点:【dare】 /deə(r)/ v.
英文释义:dare means to be brave enough to do something that is risky or that others avoid 本义为"敢、有胆量",胆识评价语境核心义为"胆敢(强调的不是"做没做",而是"敢不敢")"(本文特指:few other world leaders have dared to do,指在特朗普政府的关税压力下主动离席这件事,其他国家领导人不是做不到,而是不敢做)。核心搭配:dare to do sth.、How dare you!、I dare say、don't you dare、dare sb. to do sth.(激某人去做)
