1. 1紀錄保持人

    The record-holder is the person who has the best mark in a sport right now — the fastest time, the longest jump, the most wins, and so on. You can be the world record-holder or only the school record-holder; the word still fits. It lives most of all in sport, though people stretch it for a joke (“She’s the record-holder for late homework”). Though actually, the person who first set a famous mark years ago may no longer hold it. If someone beats them, they become a former record-holder. That is different from record-breaker, which points at the act of beating the old mark.

    record-holder 指目前在某項運動中保有最佳成績的人,例如最快的時間、最遠的跳躍或最多的勝場。前面可以加範圍,像「the world record-holder」(世界紀錄保持人),或只是學校層級的紀錄保持人,都還是同一個詞。它主要用在體育,偶爾也被拿來開玩笑,例如「She's the record-holder for late homework」。如果有人打破了他的紀錄,他就成了「former record-holder」(前任紀錄保持人)。另一個字「record-breaker」指的是打破舊紀錄的人或行為,重點在那個動作。

組成record (the best mark) + holder (the person who holds / keeps it).
