今天我們要學的詞是 implode.

implode 的意思是內(nèi)爆，由于內(nèi)力而崩潰。Many expected that overnight millionaires from tech IPOs would lead the Bay Area housing market to get even hotter this year, but the narrative never gained traction because the IPO market imploded. 許多人曾預計，因科技公司上市而一夜暴富的百萬富翁們將使得灣區(qū)房市變得更加火爆，但由于初始股市場崩潰，這種說法從未受到廣泛關(guān)注。

The fall of the Berlin wall is seen as a key moment in the collapse of communism. Just two years later, the Soviet Union imploded and the Cold War was declared over. 柏林墻的倒塌被視為共產(chǎn)主義崩潰的關(guān)鍵時刻。在那僅僅兩年后，蘇聯(lián)內(nèi)部崩潰，冷戰(zhàn)宣告結(jié)束。
