self-preservation n.自我保存,自衛本能。

self-pride

The instinct of self-preservation warned him to batten down his hatches, to smother the fire with want of air . 自衛的本能警告他用木條把倉門釘好,把火頭悶熄,不要闖出大禍來。

All the rules of self-preservation were broken when we saw that little face . 一看見那張小臉,我們就把明哲保身的金科玉律統統打破了。

At times a flick of self-preservation burned through the fog of reverie . 有時求生本能的火花也會在夢幻的濃霧中突然閃爍一下。
