布蘭妮提醒粉絲：請做好準備迎接她隆重復出。唉！“小甜甜”這次是否真的會東山再起？雖懷疑但仍充滿期待…… 有消息稱，布蘭妮上周五在其官方網站寫道：我希望今年能夠復出，而且比以往任何一次表現都來得宏大、精彩。

請看外電相關報道：Britney Spears is putting fans on notice: Be prepared for her hot careercomeback.

"I look forward to coming back this year bigger and better than ever," writes Spears in a posting Friday on her Web site. She says she wants to go on tour and hopes her new album will be released later this year.

報道中的“comeback”指的是（明星）“復出”，也可以表示“東山再起”、“卷土重來”，或者“再度走紅”。

在此，comeback相應的英文釋義為“a return to formerly enjoyed status”（恢復以前的榮耀）。表示“復出”時，comeback常和動詞make/stage/announce搭配，如：make a comeback/stage a comeback/announce one's comeback。

既然提到“復出”，其反義詞“出道”自是不能不提。英語中，“出道”可表示為“to make one's debut”。

看下面一個例句：The old actor made a successful comeback after twenty years.（那位老演員二十年后成功復出，又紅了起來。）
