把開口合起來
最貼著核心的一家：實實在在把一樣東西移到閉合的位置——門、抽屜、書、眼睛，動詞是合上的動作，形容詞是合上之後的狀態。
shut (close) · verb · A2
To move something so that it is no longer open, or to become closed.
關
核心畫面
You can hold shut as moving something into its closed position so nothing can pass: a door swung till it meets the frame, a lid pressed down, a gap sealed. The opening that was there is now gone. Whether it's a door, a shop, your eyes, or your mouth, the same picture runs underneath — bring the two edges together and close the gap.

可以把 shut 想成把東西推到『閉合』的位置，讓中間不再有縫可通：門推到碰上門框、蓋子壓下去、開口被封起來——本來那個開著的口，現在沒了。不管是門、是店、是眼睛還是嘴巴，底下都是同一個畫面：把兩邊的邊緣合起來，把縫關掉。Three branches
店不開了
把『關上一道門』放大到整間店：拉下鐵門、把入口合起來，外人就進不來了——可能只是今天打烊，也可能是永遠收掉。
shut (shop stops opening) · verb · A2
If a shop or place shuts, it stops being open to people for a while or for good.
（店）打烊
把通道堵掉
把『合上開口』用在比較生動的地方：合上的可以是嘴（叫人別說了）、是注意力（故意不去看）、甚至是抽屜縫（夾到手指）——都是把某個通道關掉，只是關的東西不一樣。
shut (rude: stop talking) · verb · A2
Used in a rough way to tell someone to stop talking.
閉嘴
