火上浇油
inflame passions further
先看动词inflame构成：in（en）- flame（火焰）= 投入火焰-加剧
这个词常用在新闻里：If something inflames a situation or inflames people’s feelings, it makes people feel even more strongly about something.
🌰 例句时间

将军认为叛乱者是造成形势激化的原因。
The shooting has only inflamed passions further.
枪击事件无疑是火上浇油。
派生词
inflammable 易燃烧的（highly flammable liquids 高度易燃的液体
inflammation：flame（火焰），引申为“发炎”（throat inflammations 咽喉发炎
再看passion，结合背景，这里不是热情；激情或者热爱，而是和rage差不多，形容盛怒；激愤，所以Passions inflamed就形容形势激化、火上浇油啦。

She flies into a passion if anyone even mentions his name.

之前学过厨房英语，控制火侯至小火，慢慢将食材熬煮的动作叫 simmer/stew。
用来形容慢慢升温的紧张局势：
If a conflict or a quarrel simmers, it does not actually happen for a period of time, but eventually builds up to the point where it does.

其实boil也是厨房做饭英语，火开到最大，直到水开了之后滚煮的动作叫 boil。
boil over可以指水之类的液体煮沸后从锅子溢出来的情形，也被用来比喻人愤怒地难以抑制，怒不可遏。
英语释义：
When someone’s feelings boil over, they lose their temper or become violent.
有时挫折和愤怒会以直接的暴力形式爆发出来。
