/ˈpʌfbɔːl/
a type of fungus that releases a cloud of spores when pressed, 中文含义:马勃菌(一种按压时会喷出孢子的真菌)
记忆技巧
联想记忆法
拆解单词:'puff'(喷出) + 'ball'(球)。想象一个圆球(ball)被轻轻一按就'噗噗'(puff)喷出烟雾,就像马勃菌释放孢子的样子。
谐音梗
谐音'怕粉球'——马勃菌'怕'被碰,一碰就喷'粉'(孢子),还是个'球'形。
例句
The children giggled as they stepped on the puffball, sending a cloud of spores into the air. (孩子们踩在马勃菌上咯咯笑,孢子像烟雾一样喷向空中。)
