Come up with 表示想出或提出某种内容,例如主意、计划、解决办法或答案。它强调某人想到了新的选项,而不只是采用现成方案。想出的内容直接放在 with 后:came up with a plan。

come up with + idea/plan/solution/name; come up with a way to + verb

修改原因
修改前At the meeting, Anna invented an idea for the new logo.
修改后At the meeting, Anna came up with an idea for the new logo.
在会议上想到标志设计的点子,这里用 came up with an idea 比 invented an idea 更自然。Invent 强调创造此前没有的事物,并不只限于设备或技术,但本句的重点是提出点子。因此把 invented 换成 came up with,其他部分保持不变。
去掉 with,就变成另一个表达 come up,表示出现或发生。A problem came up at work 是工作中出现了问题,不是在说有人想出它。Come up with 则以想出某种内容的人为主语。
动手练习
Nobody knew how to cut costs, but after lunch Maria ___ a clever plan.
查看答案
came up with — Maria 想出了计划,空格后直接跟 a clever plan,因此需要 came up with。Came up 不带 with 表示出现,不能在这里直接接她想出的内容。
回想一个你在工作或学习中独立解决的问题。说出问题,以及你想出了什么办法。
Our team kept missing messages in long email chains, so I came up with a shared checklist that everyone updates daily.
