Scientists already knew that if we overate fat cells blow up like balloons科學(xué)家已經(jīng)知道，如果我們吃得太多脂肪細(xì)胞就會像氣球一樣膨脹

blow up:爆炸；充氣；放大

Can you lend me a pump to blow up my bicycle tyres?

你能借給我個打氣筒給車胎打打氣嗎?

詞義辨析:

blow up, burst, explode這三個詞(組)的共同意思是“炸毀”。其區(qū)別是：

blow up指人炸毀汽車、樓房等物體; explode指炸彈、鍋爐、油箱等爆炸; 而burst指氣球、輪胎等爆炸。例如:

The car blew up.轎車被炸毀了。

When the boiler exploded many people were injured.因鍋爐爆炸,許多人受了傷。

The tyre burst.輪胎爆炸了。
