今天我们来学习一下这个表达，restrain oneself，这里的动词restrain可以理解成：to control the actions or behaviour of someone by force, especially in order to stop them from doing sth., or to limit the growth or force of sth.；
所以它有“抑制、克制、阻止、限制”这样的意思；
而对应地，restrain oneself可以理解成“控制自己的情绪、行为”，在口语中也经常会有restrain oneself from doing sth. 的用法；
If you restrain yourself from doing sth., you prevent yourself from showing that emotion or doing what you wanted or intended to do.
 
eg: Unable to restrain herself, she rose and went to the phone.
她控制不住自己的情绪，站起身走向了电话。
 
eg: She was so angry that she could hardly restrain herself.
她当时是如此的愤怒以至于她很难控制住自己的情绪。
