remedy和redeem的区别，不是都有补救，纠正的动词义吗？具体用法上有不同吗？
要区别英语两个词之间的区别，最后看英语解释和用法，不要看汉语的解释，那样很难发现它们的细微差别。
请看它们的的英文解释：
remedy:
if you remedy something that is wrong or harmful, you correct it or improve it纠正；补救；矫正(以人做该动作的执行者)
A great deal has been done internally to remedy the situation.已经做了很多内部工作对这种情形进行补救。
redeem:
1. when something redeems an unpleasant thing or situation, it prevents it from being completely bad挽回；弥补；补救(以物作为该动作的执行者)
Does this institution have any redeeming features?这个机构有什么可取之处吗？
Work is the way that people seek to redeem their lives from futility.工作可以避免人们虚度生命。
a long face with too prominent features that were redeemed by a fine pair of brown eyes脸部较长，五官很突出，还好一双棕色的眼睛长得恰到好处
2. if you redeem yourself or your reputation, you do something that makes people have a good opinion of you again after you have behaved or performed badly挽回(声誉)；补偿，弥补(过错)
He had realized the mistake he had made and wanted to redeem himself.他已经认识到了自己的错误，想要进行弥补。
The sole redeeming feature of your behaviour is that you're not denying it.你的行为中唯一可取之处就是你没有否认错误。
整顿、整治英语怎么翻译?
农业部9月22日启动了奶站专项整治行动，要求在全国开展为期一个月的奶站专项整治行动，切实加强奶站清理整顿和监督管理，规范奶业生产正常秩序，坚决杜绝在鲜牛奶中添加三聚氰胺等有害化学物质。
请看《中国日报》的报道：
The government has vowed to overhaul the country's milk collection system to prevent contaminated milk from reaching food-processing plants.
中国政府宣布要全面整顿全国奶源收购体制以防止受污染奶源流入食品加工企业。
上述报道中，overhaul就是to examine thoroughly with a view to corrections or renovation，即“彻底检查、整顿、整治”之意，用作动词或名词都可以，to overhaul the country’s milk collection center 就是“整治全国奶站”的意思了。
Overhaul这个词本意为“对机器设备进行大的维修；到医院进行全面的体检”，因此在使用时更加侧重于指“大刀阔斧”的改革，或指“从根本上进行全面革新”，这里的“整治”之意也是来源于此。
