大家好，今天我们分享一个非常有用且地道的表达——kick in, 这个短语的含义不是指“踢进去”，其正确的含义是：
kick in 开始见效；起作用

药片半小时后药力开始显现。

改革将于今年下半年开始见效。
You'll feel a lot better when the medication kicks in.
当药开始见效的时候，你会感觉好很多。
The lights need a few minutes to warm up, but we can start as soon as they kick in.
灯光需要几分钟预热，但是它们一开始见效，我们就可以开始。
kick in 付钱，支付

我为他们在办公室做的慈善活动支付了一些钱。
I will kick a few bucks in on some flowers for the receptionist.
我会支付一些钱给前台的接待员买花。
