show up at + place; show up for + meeting/class/interview; show up on/in + photo/screen
- Only six people showed up for the Monday meeting, so we moved it to Wednesday.
- Our taxi finally showed up forty minutes late, and we nearly missed our flight.
- The small scratch doesn't show up in the photos, but I still mentioned it in the advert.
修改原因
修改前The candidate didn't show up on the interview, so we invited the next person.
修改后The candidate didn't show up for the interview, so we invited the next person.
Interview 前容易误用 on,但在这里,活动通常用 for 引出,地点则用 at:show up for the interview、show up at the office。时间和屏幕等结构中仍可用 on:show up on time、show up on the screen。
Appear 也表示出现,但更常描写某人突然进入视线:A man appeared in the doorway。Show up 则强调一个人来到大家等着的地方:She showed up an hour late。
动手练习
We waited at the café for an hour, but Tom never ___ and didn't answer his phone.
查看答案
showed up — 他们在咖啡馆等 Tom,但他始终没来,所以选 showed up。Showed off 表示炫耀、显露本领,与这里等待他到场无关。
写一次有人迟到或缺席的会议、课程或参观活动。说明这件事让你不得不怎样调整。
Our guide showed up half an hour late for the museum tour, so we had to skip the first gallery.
