一大群閃亮的人事物
借的是「滿天亮點聚在一起」這個畫面:一群同類的傑出人物同時出現,看起來就像一片星空。英文本來就把明星叫 star,所以這個比喻接得很順。
impressive group · noun · C1
A large group of impressive or famous people or things that are alike in some way.
一大群(傑出人事物)
Picture countless bright points held together in one huge swirl — not scattered at random, but belonging to the same system. The word names that gathering: a great many shining things, all in one place. English then lends the picture to a room full of famous faces.
