preferences和personalities的区别

The fact that they reacted so differently was a reflection of their different _______.

B. preferences

C. personalities

请问各位老师，这题为什么不选preferences呢？谢谢老师！

The fact that they reacted so differently was a reflection of their different personalities.

参考译文：他们反应的巨大差异的这个事实反映了/表现出了他们不同的个性/性格。
备注：根据句子所表达的意思是“不同的个性/性格” 而不是说的“偏好/偏爱”，所以使用personality.

(1)personality 个性；性格;人格

His wife has a strong personality.他妻子的个性很强。

The children all have very different personalities.孩子们的性格各不相同。

He maintained order by sheer force of personality.他纯凭人格力量维护秩序。

(2) preference n.偏爱；爱好；喜爱

It's a matter of personal preference .那是个人的爱好问题。

Many people expressed a strong preference for the original plan.许多人强烈表示喜欢原计划。

I can't say that I have any particular preference.我说不出自己有什么特别偏好。
