Nature is used especially to talk about what sb would normally do, often when contrasting this with behaviour that seems to be different from what they would normally do. Character is similar to nature, but is more often used in connection with a person's moral behaviour or how honest or strong-minded they are. Temperament is mostly used to talk about a person's emotional state, whether they are likely to react to a particular situation by, for example, becoming angry or sad or by staying calm. * personality尤表述与人共处时的举止,如活泼还是安静、自信还是腼腆、开朗还是易怒。nature尤表述某人惯常的行为举止,常用于比较某人的惯常做法与反常行为。character与nature相似,但较常用于描述人的德行,或是否诚实、是否固执等。temperament最常表述人的情绪状态,是否容易对某一特殊情况感到生气、悲伤或保持冷静等。■self(pluralselves) [countable, usually singular] the type of person you are, especially the way you normally behave, look or feel(自己的)通常的行为方式,本来面目,惯常心态◆He's not his usual happy self this morning.今天早上,他不像平素那乐呵呵的样子。◆Only with a few people could she be her real self.只有和某几个人在一起时,她才能表现出真实的自我。◆You'll soon be feeling your old self again(= feeling well or happy again).你很快又会变回原来的你。◆Her private and public selves were vastly different.她在私下里和在公众面前的样子完全不同。 see also self ⇨ identity■persona pəˈsəʊnə; NAmEpərˈsoʊnə(pluralpersonaepərˈsoʊniː, pərˈsoʊnaɪorpersonas) [countable] (formal) the aspects of a person's character that they show to other people, especially when their real character is different伪装;假象;人格面具◆His public persona is quite different from the private family man described in the book.他的公开形象与书中描写的恋家男人相去甚远。■ˈmake-up [singular] (ratherinformal) the different qualities that combine to form a person's character性格;气质◆Jealousy is not part of his make-up.嫉妒不是他的本性。◆The report studies the psychological make-up of a serial killer.这个报告对一个连环杀手的心理特征作了分析研究。■dispositionˌdɪspəˈzɪʃn [countable, usually singular] (formal) the natural qualities of a person's character, as shown in the way they tend to behave or react to sth(通过行为倾向表现出来的)性格,性情◆Tom was everybody's favourite with his bouncy, cheerful disposition.汤姆性情活泼、开朗,所有人都喜欢他。◆Some scenes aren't recommended for viewers of a nervous disposition.某些场景不适合神经质的人观看。
