Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people.’ Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child--or even an animal, such as a pigeon--can learn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.
C.
We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone’ s personality, we mean the ways in which he or she. acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.

But if you were asked to describe a "nice person," you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth.

Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villain’ s(坏人) or the hero’s role. In fact, the words "person" and "personality" come from the Latin persona, meaning "mask." Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.
