  • 提示:点击文章中的单词,就可以看到词义解释
    简单点的说法:
    ①He’s no longer popular.
    高级一点:
    ②He's no longer in his prime.或He's now past his prime.(已过鼎盛期)
    ③He had his moments.(曾有过辉煌)
    ④He's a has-been.(过气人物)
     
    可以表达“过气”的词组:
    1 a has-been
    a has-been指过气的人物。
    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.
    他那时候一夜成名,但现在已经过气了。
     
    2 over the hill
    over the hill指风光不再,开始走下坡路。
    从字面意思看,这个短语就是翻过山坡的意思,翻过山坡不就是要走下坡路了嘛。用来形容人的时候,就是指已经过了鼎盛时期了,开始慢慢往下走了。
    例句:
    I don't think of myself as being over the hill yet.
    我不认为我已经在走下坡路了。
     
    3 a spent force
    a spent force指过气、昨日黄花。
    释义: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.
    新专辑证明这支乐队还远没有过气。
     
    4 over party
    over party指某人或某风潮过气了,在俚语中可理解为人走茶凉。
    释义:When a trend or a person is over.
    例句:
    He's over party.
    他过气了。
    She should go to her own over party.
    她过气了。
