reaped 是动词 reap 的过去式/过去分词,常见含义:
/riːpt/
I reaped the corn with my grandfather last autumn.
去年秋天我和爷爷一起收割了玉米。
After years of practice, she finally reaped the rewards of her hard work and won the scholarship.
经过多年的练习,她终于收获了努力的回报,拿到了奖学金。
reap 来自古英语 rīpan,原意与“用镰刀收割庄稼”相关;后来意义逐渐扩展到比喻用法,表示“获得(成果/回报)”,因此常出现在“因果报应、播种与收获”的表达中。reaped 是其规则变化的过去式(词尾 -ed 在这里读作 /t/)。
