知识点解析
昨天早上乌云密布，小编以为会下雨，结果一会儿天就晴了。
小编心里不禁感慨: The weather turned out to be fine.
1. 除了指天气变好外，词组turn out还可以指“结果是，最后是”，它强调最后的状态或结果。比如：
What he had said turned out false.
他的话结果是假的。
I was positive things were going to turn out fine.
我确信事情最终会好起来的。
除了turn out以外，由turn组成的其他词组也经常出现，比如turn on, turn off, turn up 和turn down。
2. turn on的一个常见意思是“打开（设备）”。比如：
turn on the radio
打开收音机
3. turn off 的意思和turn on相反，指“关闭（设备）”。比如：
turn off the light 关灯
4. 词组turn down 的常见意思是“关小；调低”。比如：
Please turn the radio down.
请调低收音机音量。
此外，turn down 还可以指“拒绝（请求、提议等）”，比如：
I thanked him for the offer but turned it down.
我谢绝了他的提议。
5. 词组turn up可以指“增加（音量等）”，比如：
Please turn the radio up; I'd like to listen to the news.
请把收音机音量开大一些，我想听听新闻。
除此之外，turn up还能指“出现”，比如：
He said he would come, but hasn't turned' up yet.
他说他会来的，但是人还没有到。
好啦，今天的知识点就到这里。大侠们快去做后面的习题哟！
你不会turn down我这个小小的请求吧？
