六级词汇讲解:
本句的主干是It...has something to do with the fact that...。that引导的是fact的同位语从句,对其进行解释说明,该从句包含两个并列的谓语is和appears。不定式短语to up your metabolic rate作appears的表语。
suppressant意为“抑制剂”。metabolic意为“新陈代谢的”。have sth. to do with意为“与……有关”。如:
Do you have something to do with this group?
你和这个集团有关系吗?
up在句中作动词,意为“提高,抬高”。如:
The price ofmeat has been upped.
肉类的价格已经提高。
