point of no return不归路;不可返回点;已无退路;不可能回头。这个短语源于飞机,飞机在飞行过程中如果没有足够燃料,就无法返回其出发地点,其只能往终点前进,这样是不能回头的,因此便有人创造了这个短语,将其引申为了如今的含义。
【例句】
He had done something, in a way that Orwell had not, and had passed the point of no return.
他已经走上了与奥威尔不同的道路,这是一条不归路。
We have now reached the point of no return.
我们现在已经到了无法回头的地步。
