重点解释

The gamble has paid off.放手一搏也有了回报。

pay off:取得成功；有报偿

Our plan certainly paid off; it was a great idea.

我们的计划当然成功了，那是个很好的主意。

His hard working will eventually pay off.

他的努力工作终将会得到报偿。

词汇搭配:

pay off a score付帐

pay off one's score还清债务

There will soon be abundant food for everyone.食物富足之日即将到来

abundant:丰富的；充裕的

Indonesia is abundant in petroleum deposits.

印尼的石油蕴藏量丰富。

China is abundant with natural resources.

中国自然资源丰富。

词语用法:

abundant指某物十分充足,丰富有余,量大得异常。含有“大量”和“可贵”的意思。

abundant在句中可用作定语或表语,用作表语时常与介词in连用。

当短语abundant in以物作主语,以地点名词作介词宾语时意思是“某物大量存在〔盛产〕于某地”，有时根据地点不同in要换成on; 反之,以地点名词作主语,以物作介词宾语时则译为“某地大量存在〔盛产〕某物”。abundant with则只能以地点名词作主语,以物作with的宾语,意为“某地大量存在〔盛产〕某物”。
