为成为2008年北京奥运会电器产品独家供应商,英格索兰(中国)投资有限公司日前表示,他们会积极备战并有信心竞标成功。据透露,对于最终供应商的确定,北京奥组委将于8月份在对最后候选人的产品进行评定后给予定夺。
请看《中国日报》相关报道:Ingersoll Rand, a US-based company, is among the firms competing to sell the Beijing Olympics Organizing Committee small electrical vehicles for use during the 2008 Games.
Jeff Song, vice-president of the firm, said the committee is planning a performance evaluation1 on several short-listed candidates2 in August and will then make a final decision.
报道中的short-listed candidates就是指“经过初次选拔后,参加决选的候选人”,参赛者可以是竞争“某个职位”、“某种荣誉”或“某个晋升机会”。
Short-listed源于动词词组short-list(把…列入决选名单),例如:He's been short-listed for the director's job.(他已经入围董事一职的决选名单。)
另外,去掉连字符的short list可作名词词组,指“决选名单”,所以,上面一句话也可改写为:She was on the short list for the position of director.
