Ví dụ
The response (phản hồi) stirred up (đã dấy lên) a hornets nest with people pointing out a new partnership between the PGA TOUR and daily fantasy site DraftKings that was announced earlier this week. But Homa was quick to clarify he has no issue with fantasy golf, in fact he welcomes it. “I usually don’t like to respond but when it is misunderstood (hiểu nhầm) what I was saying – when I’m being told that I’m pooping on (ị lên) the TOUR’s new partnership – I was not doing that,” Homa said.

US President Donald Trump stirred a hornets' nest when he said on Monday in the presence of (sựu hiện diện của) Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had requested him to mediate in resolving the 71-year-old Kashmir dispute. Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar told Parliament that no such request was made by our PM during his meeting with Trump in Osaka, Japan.

Recent reports show they were tasked with removing a hornets nest from a tenant's balcony (ban công), saved numerous pets from perilous situations (tình huống nguy hiểm) and helped release a child who was stuck in a fence (hàng rào).
