短释义:
In a movie or book, a climax is the point where, after a long buildup, everything gets really intense and dramatic. But if there’s a lot of buildup and then suddenly something really boring happens, that’s an anticlimax. Like waiting all day to see fireworks, but then nobody has any matches. It can also mean discussing something important like war or art, and then someone interrupts to talk about candy. Talk about a letdown.
如果你认为自己正在接近最高点,但后来意识到这实际上是最低点,那就是虎头蛇尾——兴奋很快变成失望的时刻。

在电影或书籍中,高潮是指经过长时间的积累后,一切都变得非常激烈和戏剧化的时刻。但如果积累了很多,然后突然发生了一些非常无聊的事情,那就是虎头蛇尾。就像整天等着看烟花,却没人拿火柴一样。它也可能意味着讨论一些重要的事情,比如战争或艺术,然后有人打断谈论糖果。谈论失望。
