ugly, plain
这两个词都可表示“难看的”。它们的区别是：
1.ugly语气较强烈,指“难看的,难听的,丑陋的”,可指人或物,着重于“令人不快的”。
2.plain强调脸部外貌缺乏某种能引起兴趣或吸引人的特征。例如:
From a rather plain child she had grown into a beautiful woman.她从一个相貌平平的孩子长成了一个美丽的女子。
The girl has a good figure but a plain face.那个女孩子体形很美,但长相一般。
Down deep in that ugly heap Marie Curie felt sure that her new element lay hidden.
就在那一堆丑陋难看的东西中,玛丽·居里夫人深信她的新元素蕴藏其中,不为人知.
