用法讲解
- plain作形容词的基本意思是“清晰的,明白的”,指能被人清楚地看到或听到。plain作“朴素的,简单的,平常的”解时,可指衣着朴素,缺乏装饰; 也可指人的相貌平常,没有特别引人注目之处。plain作“坦白的,坦率的,真诚的”解时,一般指人的行为和思想。plain作以上解释时在句中可用作定语或表语。
- plain还可作“完全的,十足的,彻底的”解,在句中只用作定语,无比较级和最高级形式。
- 当plain的主语是动词不定式或that从句时,常用于形式主语结构。
- plain用作名词意思是“平原”,指起伏极小,海拔较低的广大平地,常用作复数形式。
- plain sailing一词表示“一帆风顺”，源自航海词汇，指采用简便的平面海图的导航。
- plain, ugly
-
- 这两个词都可表示“难看的”。其区别是：
- 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。
- apparent，obvious，evident，clear，plain，distinct，definite，manifest
-

- obvious语气较强，指极为明显，有目共睹，无需说明和论证。
- evident指根据事实成为显然的。
- clear普通用词，侧重清楚明白。
- plain普通用词，含义与clear很接近，可通用，但plain着重简单明了，不复杂。
- distinct较正式用词，指轮廓的清楚或定义、含义的明确，不会弄错。
- definite语气肯定，着重明白无误，无可怀疑。
