看美剧学英语习语:Out of the picture

Out of the picture: No longer involved in the situation you are talking about If you are out of the picture for something such as a job or a prize, it is no longer possible that you will get it.


中文释义:out of the picture:Picture是一个很普通的字,它的意思是图画,或者是照片。Out of the picture按字面来讲是某人不在那张照片里。可是,要是当out of the picture作为习惯用语的时候,它的意思就是:不涉其中,在局外,也就是:此人已经不再参与某项工作,或者退出某一行动。
例句:With last year's winner out of the picture, she has a good chance of winning.(With last year's winner out of the picture, she has a good chance of winning.)
