為了更好地幫助大家進行英語詞匯的學習,尤其是應對北美的各種語言和學術類考試,并了解英語詞根詞綴的知識,留學監(jiān)理網(wǎng)的老師特意為大家制作了一個系列的詞匯提升類文章,希望大家可以有效地進行詞匯學習。今天我們就來學習一下How to Talk about Personality Types。

北美的標準化考試種類繁多,有我們大家熟悉的TOEFL、SAT、ACT、GRE、GMAT等,還有一些考試是我們不太熟悉的,例如LAST、MCAT、AP等。

 

不過對于任何一個考試來說,都要求我們的學生具備較大的詞匯量。一個受過良好教育的美國人的詞匯量大概是2萬左右,而現(xiàn)在我們的大學畢業(yè)生的詞匯量普遍在6000-8000,英語系畢業(yè)生的詞匯量可以達到1萬-1萬2。這就是很多同學在出國前都要瘋狂背單詞的原因。

自我主義者/利己主義者:egoist

Every decision you make is based on the answer to one question: “what’s in it for me? Ifyour selfishness, greed, and ruthless desire for self-advancement hurt other people, that’s too bad. But you may say “this is a tough world and I, for one, am not going to be left behind!”

 

自高自大者/驕傲自負者:egotist

You are boastful to the point of being obnoxious -- you have only one string to your conversatioal violin -- YOURSELF; and on it you play a number of monotonous variations: what you think, what you have done, how good you are, how you would solve the problems of the world, etc.

 

利他主義者/無私的人:altruist

You have discovered the secret of true happiness -- concerning yourself with the welfare of others. Never mind your own interests.

 

內向者/內向的人:introvert

You may seem unsocial, yet your greatest desire is to be liked and accepted. You may be shy and quiet, you are often moody and unhappy, and you prefer solitude or at most the company of one person to a crowd. You have an aptitude for creative work and are uncomfortable engaging in activities that require cooperation with other people. You may even be a genius, or eventually turn into one.

 

外向者/外向的人:extrovert

You would be great as a teacher, counselor, administrator, insurance agent. You can always become interested in other people’s problems. You are the life of the party, because you never worry about the effect of your actions, never inhibit yourself with doubts about dignity or propriety. You are usually happy, generally full of high spirits; you love to be with people -- lots of people. Your thoughts, your interests, your whole personality are turned outward.

 

 

中間性格者/既外向又內向的人:ambivert

You are both introverted and extroverted tendencies -- at different times nd on different occasions. Your interests are turned, in about equal proportions, both inward and outward. Indeed you’re quite normal -- in the sense that your personality is like that of most people.

 

不愿與人往來者/憤世嫉俗的人:misanthrope

Cynical, embittered, suspicious, you hate everyone. The perfectibility of the human race? “Nonsense! No way!”. The stupidity, the meanness, and the crookedness of most morals -- that is your favourite theme.

 

嫌棄女人者/厭惡女人的人:misogynist

Sometime in your dim past, you were crossed, scorned or deeply wounded by a woman (a mother, or mather figure, perhaps). So now you have a carefully constructed defense against further hurt -- you hate all women.

 

厭惡結婚的人/厭婚者:misogamist

You will not make the ultimate legal commitment. Members of the opposite sex are great as lovers, roommates, apartment or house-sharers, but not as lawfully wedded spouses. The bies that bind are too binding for you. You may possibly believe that a commitment is deeper and more meaningful if freedom is available without judicial proceedings.

 

清心寡欲的人/禁欲主義者:ascetic

Self-denial, austerity, lonely contemplation -- these are the characteristics of the good life, so you claim. The simplest food and the least amount of it that will keep body and soul together, combined with abstinence from fleshly, earthly pleasures, will eventually lead to spiitual perfection -- that is your philosophy.

 

詞根詳解--ego:

What do you think your constant criticisms do to my ego?

很多同學讀到這個句子都太明白其中的含義,ego的意思是“自我”,這是一個非常抽象的心理學術語。這里,我們不去探究ego的含義,我們需要來學習ego這個詞根。ego是一個來自于拉丁語的詞根,意為“我,自我”,今后再看到某個單詞中含有ego這個詞根,你就可以大膽猜測一下單詞的意思了!

 

那么還有哪些單詞帶有ego這個詞根呢?大家繼續(xù)跟著留學監(jiān)理網(wǎng)的老師往下學習吧!

 

If you are an egocentric, you consider yourself the center of the universe, you are an extreme form of the egoist.

 

And if you are an egomaniac, you carry egoism to such an extreme that your needs, desires and interests have become a morbid obsession, a mania.

 

The egoist or egtist is obnoxious, the egocentric is intolerable and the egomaniac is dangerous and slightly mad.

詞根詳解--alter:

與ego一樣,alter也是一個來自拉丁語的詞根,意為“他人”。之前學過的利他主義者altruist就來自于這個詞根。由alter變化而來的詞匯也很多,我們繼續(xù)一起學習一下:

 

Altruistic actions look toward the benefit of others. If you alternate, you skip one and take the other. And if you have no alternative, you have no other choice.

 

An alteration is a change -- a making into something other. When you alter your plans, you make other plans.

 

An altercation is a verbal dispute. When you have an altercation with someone, you have a violent disagreement, a fight with words. By the way, altercation is stronger than quarrel or dispute.

 

Last but not least, we have alter ego, which combines alter (other) with ego (I/self). It refers to someone with whom you are so close that you both do the same things, think alike, eact similarly, etc. Any such friend is your alter ego.

 

詞根詳解--misein:

希臘語詞根misein構成了misanthrope、misogynist和misogaist。在希臘語中,misein的意思是hate。The misanthrope hates mankind (in Greek, anthropos=mankind); the misogynist hates women (in Greek, gyne=woman); the misogamist hate marriage (in Greek, gamos=marriage).

 

今天,我們一起學習了很多用來形容人性格的“高大上”的專業(yè)術語,如果你可以把這些詞匯用在TOEFL、GRE、SAT的寫作中的話,是不是一下子就能幫你抓住考官的眼球呢?

 

另外,我們今天還學習了很多拉丁語和希臘語的詞根,學會這種重要的單詞學習方法之后,你就可以和其他母語為英語的學生具有“說文解字”的能力了!

 

英語學習是一個不斷積累的過程,詞匯學習更是不能懶惰和懈怠。希望老家每天拿出一點時間用來進行英語的學習,這樣才能產生“水滴石穿”的效果。

 

 

希望大家的英語越來越好,早日攻克考試的難關!
