show up 和 turn up 都是动词短语,当表示“出现,露面”含义的时候,是同义词。
show up
英文含义:to come to or arrive at a place; make an appearance
We waited for three hours,but they didn't show up.
turn up
英文含义:If you say that someone or something turns up, you mean that they arrive, often unexpectedly or after you have been waiting a long time.

总结
1.Turn up 和show up相比, 有一种突然出现或等了很久之后才出现的含义。
2.在使用的时候,show up 在外刊中比turn up 要多得多,所以表示“出现”含义的时候,建议选show up 会更好。
