36 When Ofisa Treviranus learned that he was selected to the Rugby World Cup squad, he felt that all the sacrifices he had made to play rugby had finally _________.
(A) came off
(B) put off
(C) taken off
(D) paid off

回覆 @翼月

pay off　取得成功，得到好結果

英文解釋：If something you have done pays off, it is successful.

例句：All her hard work paid off in the end, and she finally passed the exam.

　　　她的所有努力最終有了收穫，她終於通過了考試。

（就解釋來看，我覺得這個片語的成功是先要付出什麼努力阿，犧牲阿，然後得到回報的成功）

come off　取得預期的效果；成功

英文解釋：to happen as planned, or to succeed

例句：There was some sort of property deal that didn't come off.

　　　有筆房地產交易沒有做成。

　　　I tried telling a few jokes but they didn't come off (= no one laughed).

　　　我試著講了幾個笑話，但沒有奏效。

（而這個片語應該就是單純的什麼事情有沒有做成功）

做出犧牲然後得到回報，所以應該pay off比較適合
