verb

 [transitive, often passive] ◆She was unfairly caricatured as a dumb blonde.她被丑化成一个傻头傻脑的金发女郎，这有失公平。■ impersonation ɪmˌpɜːsəˈneɪʃn; NAmE ɪmˌpɜːrsəˈneɪʃn [countable, uncountable] a performance in which sb copies the way a person speaks or behaves in order to deceive people or to entertain them 冒充；假扮；扮演◆He did an extremely convincing impersonation of the singer.他模仿那位歌手维妙维肖。   see also impersonate ⇨ pose ■ spoof spuːf [countable] (informal) a humorous copy of a film or television programme that exaggerates its main features （对电影或电视节目的）滑稽模仿◆It's a spoof on horror movies.这是对恐怖片的滑稽模仿。◆They did a very clever game show spoof.他们巧妙地滑稽模仿了竞赛节目。■ impression [countable] an amusing performance in which sb copies the way a person speaks or acts （对某人言谈举止的）滑稽模仿◆She did her Marilyn Monroe impression.她滑稽地模仿了玛丽莲•梦露。■ imitation [countable] an amusing performance in which sb copies the way a person speaks or acts （对某人言谈举止的）滑稽模仿◆He does a hilarious imitation of George W Bush.他模仿乔治•W．布什，滑稽可笑，令人捧腹。   see also imitate ⇨ pose NOTE 辨析 Impersonation, impression or imitation?An impersonation of sb can be more serious than an impression or imitation. An impression or imitation (or a humorous impersonation) just copies the most obvious features of a person's voice, manner or behaviour, that people will instantly recognize, in order to be amusing. An impersonation can be a serious attempt to copy a person's whole appearance and character, either in order to deceive sb by really making them believe you are the person impersonated, or as part of a serious dramatic performance. An impression and an imitation are almost the same, but an impression may be more successful. * impersonation与impression或imitation相比，可以是对某人较认真的模仿。impression或imitation（或humorous impersonation）只模仿某人的声音、举止、行为中最明显的特征，使人能即刻辨认出来，达到滑稽的效果。impersonation可以是对一个人的整个外表和性格的认真模仿，目的要么是骗人相信你就是你假扮的那个人，要么是严肃的戏剧表演。impression和imitation两词几乎完全同义，只是impression可能更成功◆a convincing impression令人信服的模仿◆a poor imitation拙劣的模仿
