Donny: 人气就是受欢迎的程度。So you can use the word "popularity", p-o-p-u-l-a-r-i-t-y, popularity.
WQ: popularity 就是人气。这个词就是 popular 的名词形式嘛。
Donny: Exactly. I've heard about this singer's rising popularity. That's why I want to go to his concert.
WQ: 演唱会的表演嘉宾，guest stars，都有谁？
Donny: Well, here's the guest star list. Most of them are popular too, but who's this person on the bottom of the list? 我怎么没听说过。
WQ: 让我看看，让我看看。哦，这个女明星几年前很红，可后来过气了。
Donny: No wonder I've never heard about her. She's a has-been. The word "has-been" means someone who is no longer popular.
WQ: has-been? has 和 been放一起就是过气的人，过时的东西。This guest star used to be famous and popular, but now she's just a has-been.
Donny: 对。
WQ:这么说，她可能想借着当嘉宾的机会重新走红喽？
Donny: That's possible. This concert will be a good opportunity for her to stage a comeback.
WQ: comeback, c-o-m-e-b-a-c-k, comeback 就是东山再起，咸鱼翻身的意思吧？If this singer makes a comeback, she will regain her popularity!
Donny: Exactly. Now let's see what you've learned today!
