核心句型:
I'm sure you'll walk over all the other competitors.
我肯定你能轻易胜过其他对手。
walk over直译过来就是:“从上面走过去”,这个短语的正确意思是:“轻松打败,轻而易举地胜过”。因此,当美国人说"I'm sure you'll walk over all the other competitors."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"I am sure you will win without any difficulty."、"I believe that you will beat others in a breeze 1."。
情景对白:

Boss: I'm sure you'll walk over all the other competitors.
