   【俚语】


  burn someone up 激怒某人
  注意:burn的意思大家应该都知道,表示“燃烧”。burn someone up连起来的意思表面上看好像是“燃烧某人”!听起来是不是很恐怖很terrifying 1! 但是呢,这个词组在俚语中的意思其实是“to irritate/infuriate someone”,或者“make someone angry” --激怒某人。
  总结起来,burn--燃烧(过去式是burnt,不是burned!),someone--某人,up--向上。Burn someone up连起来的意思就是“把某人(的脾气/火气)烧起来了!”换句话说,就是把某人激怒了。
  【例句】
  1.It burns me up when people don't treat their pets well.
  有人不好好对待自己的宠物令我很生气。
  2.That really burns me up.
  那真惹毛我了。

adj.可怕的;极大的v.使恐怖,使惊吓;恐吓(terrify的现在分词)
