Unmoved is the weakest of these words because it describes sb not reacting to sb else's distress or anger, not sb who actively causes sb else's distress. Hard, callous and heartless can describe sb reacting without sympathy to sb's distress, or sb actively doing things that hurt people without caring about the effects on those people. Ruthless and cold-blooded are stronger still: a ruthless person will do anything to get what they want; a cold-blooded person not only feels no sympathy, but feels no emotions at all (such as anger) that might explain their cruel behaviour. * unmoved在這些詞中表達的冷漠程度最弱，因爲它指的是某人對他人的痛苦或憤怒未作出反應，而非某人做了某事使得别人痛苦。hard、callous和heartless可形容某人對别人痛苦沒有同情心，或實際上做傷害他人、不顧及他人感受的事。ruthless和cold-blooded表達的冷漠程度更高：ruthless意味着爲達目的會不擇手段，cold-blooded意味着不但沒有同情心，而且根本就沒有感情（比如憤怒），其冷酷行爲在情感上無法解釋。■ brutal ˈbruːtl (usually disapproving) direct and clear about sth unpleasant; not thinking of people's feelings 直截了當的；冷酷的◆With brutal honesty she told him she did not love him.她冷酷地直接告訴他，她不愛他。   see also brutal ⇨ cruel ▸ brutally

adverb

◆Let me be brutally frank about this.讓我把這件事無情地挑明吧。
