| iPhone is increasingly getting popular among young people in China. Recently, China Unicom is negotiating with Apple Computer in a deal that intends to introduce iPhone to the China market. It is estimated that if the deal goes through, iPhone's sales in China is expected to 直线上升(zhíxiàn shàngshēng) increase substantially with people's 追捧(zhuīpěng) enthusiasm over the product . 直线上升(zhíxiàn shàngshēng) Increase quickly This phrase is made of two words 直线(zhíxiàn) and 上升(shàngshēng). 直线(zhíxiàn) refers to straight line and 上升(shàngshēng) means ascending and rising. The phrase literally means that the straight line is ascending, and here it means that speed, figures, interest rates, or profits increase quickly. So you can say the following: E.g. 1.这家公司的销售量在直线上升。 Zhè jiā gōngsī de xiāoshòu liàng zài zhíxiàn shàngshēng. The sales of the company are increasing quickly. 2.我们要多运动,避免体重直线上升。 Wǒmen yào duō yùndòng, bìmiǎn tǐzhòng zhíxiàn shàngshēng. We should exercise more to avoid the rapid increase of our body weight. |
