半個(gè)世紀(jì)前，波普藝術(shù)家安迪·沃霍爾曾預(yù)言，未來(lái)的每個(gè)人都有出名15分鐘的機(jī)會(huì)。

眼下的互聯(lián)網(wǎng)時(shí)代已是沃霍爾預(yù)見(jiàn)的未來(lái)。不管是影視明星、選秀愛(ài)豆，還是二代名媛、草根網(wǎng)紅，各人有各人的“15分鐘”。

然而后浪推前浪，花無(wú)百日紅，保鮮期極短的光鮮亮麗揮霍殆盡，他們可能就此“過(guò)氣”了。

恰好最近的娛樂(lè)圈也頗不平靜。吃瓜歸吃瓜，我們也來(lái)聊聊“過(guò)氣”的英文怎么說(shuō)吧↓

簡(jiǎn)單點(diǎn)的說(shuō)法：

①He’s no longer popular.

高級(jí)一點(diǎn)：

②He's no longer in his prime.或He's now past his prime.（已過(guò)鼎盛期）

③He had his moments.（曾有過(guò)輝煌）

④He's a has-been.（過(guò)氣人物）

可以表達(dá)“過(guò)氣”的詞組：

1 a has-been

a has-been指過(guò)氣的人物。

If you describe someone as a has-been, you are indicating in an unkind way that they were important or respected in the past, but they are not now.

例句：

He became famous overnight / at that time, but now he is just a has-been.

他那時(shí)候一夜成名，但現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)過(guò)氣了。

2 over the hill

over the hill指風(fēng)光不再，開(kāi)始走下坡路。

從字面意思看，這個(gè)短語(yǔ)就是翻過(guò)山坡的意思，翻過(guò)山坡不就是要走下坡路了嘛。用來(lái)形容人的時(shí)候，就是指已經(jīng)過(guò)了鼎盛時(shí)期了，開(kāi)始慢慢往下走了。

例句：

I don't think of myself as being over the hill yet.

我不認(rèn)為我已經(jīng)在走下坡路了。

3 a spent force

a spent force指過(guò)氣、昨日黃花。

釋義：Someone who no longer has the power or influence he once had.

例句：

The new album is proof that this band is not a spent force just yet.

新專輯證明這支樂(lè)隊(duì)還遠(yuǎn)沒(méi)有過(guò)氣。

4 over party

over party指某人或某風(fēng)潮過(guò)氣了，在俚語(yǔ)中可理解為人走茶涼。

釋義：When a trend or a person is over.

例句：

He's over party.

他過(guò)氣了。

She should go to her own over party.

她過(guò)氣了。
