【适用场合】
今天学的是这样的一个短语，叫做put on a show，
这个短语的字面意思是：上演一出演出；表演一出节目；
而且口语中，可以在show前面加上good或者poor等等形容词。
比如说：
put on a good show
上演一出好戏；
put on a poor show
演了一出烂戏；
所以这样的短语对应的是什么样的英文解释呢？
一起来看看：
to attempt, do, or perform something with a particular level of quality (specified before "show")
eg: Every year, the city carolers put on a wonderful show in front of city hall.
每一年，城市圣诞颂歌团都会在市政厅前上演精彩的演出。
eg: Considering that the children had no help, they put on a marvellous show.
考虑到这些孩子都是自己完成的，他们的表演已经可以说是很精彩了。
eg: They put on a show of being interested, but I don't think they really were.
他们表现出来一副很感兴趣的样子，但是我觉得他们不是真的感兴趣。
eg: The team put on a good show in the competition.
这支队伍在比赛中表现出色。
eg: Ms. Morris was determined to put on a show of family unity.
莫里斯女士决定演出一副全家团结的样子。
