　I have thought about her often over the years and how she struggled in a society that places an incredible premium on looks, class, wealth and all the other fineries of life. She suffered from a
disfigurement that cannot be made to look attractive. I know that her condition hurt her deeply. 不过她有种独特的敏感与美丽，与外表完全无关。

　　1. 这期题目里有个 have nothing to do with 的短语发现大家都用在了句子里，用来表达与……无关。
　　2. 原文中没有译出"独特的"这个词, 我们翻译的时候可以译为distinctive, unique, 有许多人用了 special 也基本上表达出了题目的意思.
