profuse (adj.): early 15c., "lavish, extravagant," from Latin profusus "spread out, lavish, extravagant," literally "poured forth," noun use of past participle of profundere "pour forth," from pro- "forth" (see pro-) + fundere "to pour" (see found (v.2)).

1. 就像河流一样，向前倾倒，向前流淌，各个支流不断的汇聚向前流淌，当然就越来越丰富啦。2. 只有河水丰富的时候它才会向前流淌(相当于向前倒水)，如果河水不丰富的话，肯定就断流了、甚至干涸。
