释义 | 〔personality〕Personality is often used to mean "celebrity,” particularly in popular journalism,as inThe show features interviews with entertainment personalities. A case can be made for the usage,since many of the persons so described are best known simply for who they are rather than what they have done.Thuspersonality may be an appropriate description of someone who is best known by virtue of his or her frequent appearances as a television host or an advertising spokesperson, but it is slighting when used of people whose renown is based on substantive achievements.Perhaps for this reason,the word was unacceptable to 57 percent of the Usage Panel in an earlier survey.Personality 常用来表示“著名人物”, 特别用在一些大众杂志中,如在电影演员与娱乐圈知名人士对话 中。 一种情形能够用于这种用法,因为许多这样描述的人仅因他们是谁而并不解他们所做的事而著名。所以personality 可能是对因作为电视节目主持人或广告角色频繁出现而著名的一类人的合适称呼, 但如果用于那些凭借实在成绩而著名的人物就显得粗鲁了。可能因为这个原因,在早期调查中有57%用法小组的专家不接受这个词 |
