composure
含义: The state of being calm, self-possessed, and in control of one's feelings, especially in a difficult situation.
Composure describes an outward steadiness and emotional control, particularly under pressure. It implies that whatever turmoil may exist internally, one's behaviour remains measured and dignified. It is valued in public life, sport, and social interaction. Losing one's composure is generally seen as a weakness. Common collocations include 'maintain composure,' 'regain composure,' 'lose composure,' and 'with remarkable composure.'
