扩展记忆:
字母U u – 象形容器,指杯、桶,喻空
Uu大小写外形都象一个空的容器,所以常用来表示“杯”、“桶”并比喻“空”的意思,如cup(杯子)表示张开口(c),喝杯子(u)中的水,并且身体向前倾(p)。又如mourning(哀悼)就是早上(morning)起来拿一个空桶(u)装眼泪以表哀悼,所以morning(早上)一词,中间加一个u,就成为mourning(哀悼)

小知识
A cup is a vessel used for drinking. Your grandmother might make it a habit never to go to bed without a cup of warm milk.
A cup is like a small bowl with a handle. It's also a unit of measurement in cooking — if a recipe calls for a cup of water, it's the same as eight ounces. If you cup your hands, you form them into a cup shape, which you do when you hold a baby bird or cup your hand to whisper to your friend. If you say, “Polka music's not my cup of tea,” it means you don't love it.
