                I think it should mean that to make someone not to show their anger.

                When we are in good mood feel then it is called that "to keep a temper".

                I don't think it means to control temperature. Controlling our temperature is like saving ones energy. In the good mood everyone can keep their temper with them they do not try to release as they are in good mood so they keep it.

                To be aloof means to live lonely, alone. Or left behind/alone.
Ex. I want to be aloof from this noisy atmosphere.
