English @ the Movies: 'Cooked Up'
source: VOA Learning English 2016年8月13日
Here is a scary thought. What if dinosaurs were brought back to life? They have been gone a long time from our planet, but in the movie "Jurassic World," they are back. Wonder what it means if something is "cooked up?" Listen, and find out. Originally published at - http://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/...
# cook up:
1. Literally, to prepare food by cooking it. A noun or pronoun can be used between "cook" and "up." Are you hungry? I can cook something up for you.
2. To devise something. In this usage, the phrase often has a negative connotation. A noun or pronoun can be used between "cook" and "up." What ridiculous scheme has Sam cooked up now?
3. To plan to do something with someone. A noun or pronoun can be used between "cook" and "up." Have you been able to cook anything up with the boss yet? We really need to meet about this issue soon. (source: https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/cook+up)

‘No’ and ‘not’ are used to make a negative sentence, but there is a difference in their usage.
Using No:
1. For an answer to a closed-ended question (yes/no)
Example: Are you going out? Answer: No.
2. Precedes a noun without an article
Example: The company had no rivals. (rival is a noun without an article before it)
3. It cannot make a verb negative
Example: I do no have a pen. ( this is incorrect)
Example: I am no going out. (it is incorrect)
4. It cannot be used before a possessive adjective
Example: These are no my books. (use ‘not’)
Using Not:
1. It cannot be used to an answer to a closed-ended question. (yes/no)
Example: Are you going out? Answer: Not (this is incorrect. Use ‘no’)
2. Precedes a noun with an article
Example: The virus is not the cause of the disease.
3. It can make a verb negative
Example: I do not have a pen. I am not going out.
4. It is used before a possessive adjective.
Example: These are not my socks.
# Let’s take a look at how we can use ‘no’ and ‘not’ in similar sentences.
Example: I have got no money
Example: I have not got any money.
Both the above sentences mean the same.
