to strengthen (something): 加固（某物）
示例
- "Bruno : Trey, you must understand that strengthening this department won't happen overnight."
练习 1
"Strengthening this department won't happen overnight".
Another way of saying this is " the department won't ."
Another way of saying this is " the department won't ."
"Strengthening this department won't happen overnight".
Another way of saying this is "Improving 1 the department won't occur immediately 2."
Another way of saying this is "Improving 1 the department won't occur immediately 2."
1 Improving : If something is "strengthened" it is made "stronger" or "better". Bruno is warning Trey that the transformation of the new department won't happen immediately. "Improving" is synonymous with "strengthening" here.
1 Familiarising yourself with : To "familiarise" yourself with something means to acquaint yourself with it. This is not synonymous with "strengthening".
1 Taking over: To "take something over" means to take control of it. This is not what Bruno is referring to when he tells Trey about strengthening the department.
1 Earning respect in : When someone is respected, they are regarded with honour or esteem. To "earn" something means to acquire or obtain it. This is not what Bruno is referring to when he tells Trey about strengthening the department.
2 occur immediately: The expression "it won't happen overnight" refers to a process or transformation that will not happen "straight away" or "immediately", (one which can't occur in the space of one night). Bruno is warning Trey that the improvement of the department won't happen immediately, or that it will take time and energy.
2 be difficult: This is not what is meant by "it won't happen overnight". Bruno is warning Trey that the improvement of the department won't happen immediately, not that it won't be difficult.
2 take long: If something "won't take long", it will take a very short amount of time. Bruno is warning Trey that the improvement of the department won't happen immediately, not that it will happen very quickly. This is almost the opposite meaning to the one we are looking for.
2 be necessary: If something is "necessary" it is "essential". This is not what is meant by the expression "it won't happen overnight". Bruno is warning Trey that the improvement of the department won't happen immediately, not that this transformation isn't necessary.
