C: (Bob sees Mike in the street and follows him.)
Bob: There's Mike now! Wonder what he's up to! Ah, he's collecting cans and bottles and redeeming 1 them! He's heading for the super-market! That explains it! I bet he's buying treats for some poor kids!
(At the super-market)
Bob: Hi, Mike! I see you're into chocolate!
Mike: Uh...it's so cheap when you buy it in bulk form! Me, myself and I are gonna pig out on the stuff! See you later!
Bob: Yeah, see you later! Pigging out on the stuff! Maybe the gang is right! Maybe I've had him pegged 2 all wrong!
补偿的，弥补的
- I found him thoroughly unpleasant, with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. 我觉得他一点也不讨人喜欢，没有任何可取之处。
- The sole redeeming feature of this job is the salary. 这份工作唯其薪水尚可弥补一切之不足。
