解释:

  1. Equanimity这个单词为名词,其表示“steadiness of mind under stress”这一含义,即在面对压力环境下保持镇静及平衡的一种心态,因此可以作为中文中的“平常心/平和/平静”使用,与composure/calmness这些单词构成近义词。

  2. 具体使用场景如下:
  • If you can handle your life with equanimity, then it is not easy for you to get bothered by trivial matters.(如果你能以平常心对待你的生活,那么就不大会被日常琐碎事情烦恼。)
