造句
場景：
翻譯：
Duck-feeding education has outlived its usefulness.
原課程解釋：
“outlive”的基本意思是“比…活得長”、“比…持久”，例如 He outlived his wife. Outlive 還經(jīng)常和 one’s usefulness 搭配使用，表示某人或某物不再有用。想說：“你現(xiàn)在對我來說，已經(jīng)沒什么用了”，就可以說：
Now you have outlived your usefulness to me.
我們想表達(dá)“no longer useful”時(shí)，就可以用到 outlive one’s usefulness 這個(gè)常見表達(dá)。例如某個(gè)政策雖然還存在，但是實(shí)際上已經(jīng)沒有效力了，這時(shí)就可以說：
The one-child policy had outlived its usefulness.（注意這里的時(shí)態(tài)是過去完成時(shí)。由于計(jì)劃生育政策已經(jīng)被廢除了，存在于廢除這個(gè)動作的過去，所以使用了過去完成時(shí)。）
類似地，“在創(chuàng)業(yè)公司，標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的作息制度早已形同虛設(shè)”就可以說：
In startups the conventional/standard work schedule, i.e. from 9 am to 5 pm, has long since outlived its usefulness.（很多創(chuàng)業(yè)公司采用的是“996”模式，早 9 點(diǎn)到晚 9 點(diǎn)，一周上 6 天班。）
希望大家可以積極參與“打卡造句”挑戰(zhàn)，幫助自己持續(xù)行動，不要讓它 outlive its usefulness。
