如果你被形容为top of the heap那就是说你在财富、权利和能力上都胜人一筹，冠绝群雄。
- Minchee is now the CEO at an accountancy firm. I always knew she would get to the top of the heap.
- When it comes to photographers, Barbara is at the top of the heap. She's won so many awards.
值得注意的是，如果说某事或某人是on the scrap heap，意思就是此事或人已经被遗弃。
- Marco was the first choice goalkeeper at his football club for many years. But when he got old, the manager bought a younger player and Marco ended up on the scrap heap.
