文法句型

unwrap + noun phrase (direct object)

用法筆記

Generally used with a direct object referring to the wrapped item. Frequently passive ('be unwrapped'). Though the core sense is physical, figurative uses also occur in informal English — for example, 'unwrap the truth' or 'unwrap the details of the plan.' This verb is not typically used for opening containers sealed with tape or glue (use 'open' instead).
