 情景对话:
Cam: I felt awful after that pancake breakfast, and not just because Mitchell undercooked the bacon. I hated that I didn't know what his case was about. So I popped by the courtroom on the way to the game.

知识点讲解:

Undercook
没熟

Overcook
煮的过熟

【例句一】
I think the chicken is a little undercooked. Let me put it back in the oven for 10 more minutes.
我觉得这鸡肉有点没熟,让我再放烤箱烤10分钟。

【例句二】
My steak is little bit overcooked.
我的牛排做得有点过头了。

Pop by
突然拜访,短暂拜访

Drop by,stop by也可以
表达“短暂拜访”的意思,
但pop by多了一层“突然”的意思。

【例句】
You'll never guess who popped by the office today. Do you remember Yuri? He's the one that left to start his own company.
你都猜不到今天谁来办公室了。你记得Yuri么?他就是那个离开公司自己去创业那个。
