    Solution

    The phrasal verb ‘show up’ means ‘to arrive somewhere in order to join a group of people, especially late or unexpectedly’. This is the correct phrasal verb. Blow up- to become suddenly very angry. Sew (something) up- to close or repair something by sewing the edges together. Pick up- to increase or improve.
