插头 plug 是很多电子设备必不可少的部件。只有把它与插座连上时,设备才能通电;相反,如果把插头拔下来,设备会停止运行。我们常用表达 pull the plug on something “把插销拔下来”表示停止、阻止某事继续进行,尤指停止资助某个项目或计划,从而使该项目下马。
例句
i'm afraid the university has pulled the plug on the plan to 1 the computers in the library. we'll have to make do with what we've got for another couple of years.

单词 plug 做动词时可以指在广播、电视等媒体上为某产品、活动、节目等大肆推销。做名词时它的含义是“宣传、广告”。
