今天我们要学的词是odds 1。 Odds是可能性的意思。"The odds are very much in the home team's favor," 就是说主场球队胜利的机会很大。很多人都幻想着中彩票发大财,可是"What are the odds to win the lottery 2?" 中彩的机会又有多大呢?


我们还可以说"against the odds," 就是说困难重重。美国参议院星期一开始讨论一项极具争议的移民议案。美联社报道说,即使议案在参议院勉强获得通过,"the measure would face long odds in the House," 意思是这项议案在众议院也会遇到很大的阻力。好,今天我们学习的词儿是odds...



n.让步,机率,可能性,比率;胜败优劣之别
  • The odds are 5 to 1 that she will win.她获胜的机会是五比一。
  • Do you know the odds of winning the lottery once?你知道赢得一次彩票的几率多大吗?
n.抽彩;碰运气的事,难于算计的事
  • He won no less than £5000 in the lottery.他居然中了5000英镑的奖券。
  • They thought themselves lucky in the lottery of life.他们认为自己是变幻莫测的人生中的幸运者。
