According to the theory, the sentences must be taken from your life, or from a film, book, song, etc. One of the true challenges for English language learners is understanding the meanings of phrasal verbs. That you are familiar with, and the meaning of the phrasal verb should be clear from the context of the sentence. Always remember that meanings of phrasal verbs are contextual and they depend on the context. Start by learning a limited list of phrasal verbs, and then move on to taking note of phrasal verbs as you come across them in context. All the phrasal verbs above have a similar meaning.
