美国习惯用语-第786:电影
<p>我喜欢看电影，以前常去附近一家电影光盘店去租盘看。我记得两三年前那家店的生意可火了，老有好多顾客。可是后来，越来越多的电影都可以直接从网上下载，或者直接在线观看，比起租碟还碟，方便多了! 所以去租碟的人越来越少，没多久，这家店就： <span word="washed">washed</span>-<span word="up">up</span>. <span word="Wash">Wash</span> <span word="up">up</span>的意思大家可能知道，是清洗的意思。可是，<span word="washed">washed</span> <span word="up">up</span>并不是清洗，而是指彻底完蛋，没用。</p><p>随着媒体分享技术的进步，人们可以足不出户就观赏到精彩的电影和电视节目，所以，往日生意火爆的光碟租赁店买卖就越来越差，最后，<span word="they">they</span> <span word="became">became</span> <span word="washed">washed</span> <span word="up">up</span>, 它们的生意彻底垮掉了。不过，有些东西是能够起死回生的。 让我们来听听下面这段话：</p><p>例句-1: <span word="Whats">Whats</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="fastest">fastest</span> <span word="way">way</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="regain">regain</span> <span word="fame">fame</span>? <span word="Die">Die</span>. <span word="A">A</span> <span word="majority">majority</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="Americans">Americans</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="felt">felt</span> <span word="negatively">negatively</span> <span word="about">about</span> <span word="Michael">Michael</span> <span word="Jackson">Jackson</span>. <span word="He">He</span> <span word="was">was</span> <span word="largely">largely</span> <span word="considered">considered</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="failure">failure</span>; <span word="all">all</span> <span word="washed">washed</span> <span word="up">up</span>. <span word="But">But</span> <span word="after">after</span> <span word="his">his</span> <span word="shocking">shocking</span> <span word="death">death</span> <span word="in">in</span> 2009, <span word="his">his</span> <span word="popularity">popularity</span> <span word="grew">grew</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="sales">sales</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="items">items</span> <span word="featuring">featuring</span> <span word="his">his</span> <span word="life">life</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="his">his</span> <span word="music">music</span> <span word="soared">soared</span>. <span word="How">How</span> <span word="tragic">tragic</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="celebrities">celebrities</span> <span word="like">like</span> <span word="him">him</span> <span word="never">never</span> <span word="lived">lived</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="enjoy">enjoy</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="new">new</span> <span word="success">success</span>!</p><p>这段话是说：怎么才能以最快的速度重新出名呢？答案是：死掉。以前，大部分美国人对迈克尔．杰克逊的印象不怎么样。很多人觉得他是个失败者，人生走了下坡路。但是，迈克尔．杰克逊2009年突然死亡，震惊世界。此后，他的人气提升了，有关他的人生和音乐的商品都销量暴增。只可惜，他和很多名人一样，没能在活着的时候享受到二度成功的喜悦!</p>
