短释义：
The word drastic comes from the Greek word for effective, but we use it to mean incredibly effective. If you want a drastic makeover, get rid of all your clothes, change your hair completely, and pick up a new way of speaking. Sometimes drastic action goes too far and so has bad consequences. A bankrupt company might make a drastic decision to fire the management without figuring out how to manage itself in the future.
激烈的东西是暴力的、有力的和极端的。如果您正在为买车存钱，而您只有 50 美元，那么您需要对您的储蓄计划做出重大改变。
