这四个字意思都差不多。“此”(written)和“这”(oral)都可以理解成this,“这”比“此”更口语化,比如口语的交流说“这人(this person)”,书面化的表达可以是“此人”(this person);本,可以理解成this,oneself, itself ,例如本世纪(This century -the century we are living in),本人(this person -myself, himself, herself),本书(this book);今,理解成this但是它一般跟时间相关,比如“今天(this day, today)”,“今早(this morning)”,”今年(this year)“。

此:这(this)“此”is not usually used in daily conversation when it means "this" 本:我自己(refer to myself)
这:this
今:今天(today)
And these four characters are not usually used alone, they combine with other characters

此=这, 本:我这个......, 今:现在。
