1. 1清理、清掃(把一個地方的髒亂或廢棄物清掉的那一趟工作)

    A clean-up is the work of making a place clean again by taking away dirt, rubbish, or a mess. After a party, a flood, or a spill, people start a clean-up. Towns hold beach clean-ups; a factory may need a chemical clean-up. The noun comes from the verb clean up. Though actually, news and sport sometimes stretch it — a “clean-up” of the streets can mean driving crime out, not washing them — but the picture is still the same: you go through a place and get the unwanted stuff out. You will see clean-up and cleanup; dictionaries often keep the .

    clean-up 是名詞,指把一個地方的髒亂、垃圾或殘局清乾淨的那一趟工作。聚會過後、淹水或潑灑之後,人們就會開始一次清理;海灘清潔活動「beach clean-ups」,以及化學污染的清除「chemical clean-up」,都是同一類的事。它是從片語動詞 clean up 來的。

    新聞和體育報導有時會把這個詞用得更廣,例如街道的 clean-up 指把犯罪趕走,但畫面還是一樣:把不該在那裡的東西一一清出去。寫法有 clean-up 和 cleanup 兩種,學習字典通常保留連字號。
