Text: 首先，让我们先简单地看一下除隐喻和排比之外、在高级英语中出现频率比较高的几种修辞及其例子： 1.simile 明喻与汉语的明喻基本相同,是以两种具有相同特征的事物和现象进行对比,表明本体和喻体之间的相似关系。常用来表示明喻的有like, as, as if, as though等。F:Learning is like rowing upstream; not to advance is to drop back. 学如逆水行舟,不进则退。My loves like a red, red rose. 我的爱人像一朵红红的玫瑰。 Childhood is like a swiftly passing dream. 童年就像一场疾逝的梦。2. metonymy 转喻转喻类似于汉语中的借代修辞,是通过相近的联想, 借喻体代替本体,它根本不说出本体事物, 直接用比喻事物代替本体事物。用某一事物的名称代替另外一个与它关系密切的事物的名称，只要一提到其中一种事物，就会使人联想到另一种。比如用the White House 代替美国政府或者总统， 用the bottle来代替wine 或者alcohol， 用the bar 来代替the legal profession，用 crown代替 king等。3. personification 拟人拟人是把无生命的事物当作有生命的事物来描写, 赋予无生命之物以感情和动作或是把动物人格化。F:The night crawled slowly like a wounded snake, and sleep did not visit Rainsford. 黑夜像受伤的蛇一样缓缓爬来,睡眠没有造访雷斯福特。(句中night和sleep通过只适用于动物和人的crawl和visit两个动词被拟人化。)The flowers nodded to her while she passed. 当她经过的时候花儿向她点头致意。 The wind whistled through the trees. 风穿过树丛，树叶哗哗作响。4. hyperbole 夸张夸张是一种故意言过其实,或夸大或缩小事物的形象,借以突出事物的某种特征或品格的修辞格。F:Most Americans remember Mark Twain as the father of Huck Finn’s idyllic cruise through eternal boyhood and Tom Sawyer’s endless summer of freedom and adventure. ( eternal和endless都是夸张用语, 表示哈克?费恩童年时期田园般的旅游和汤姆?索亚夏日里自由自在历险探奇的故事都已成为永恒不朽之作。). onomatopoeia 拟声拟声是词模拟人及其他有生命或无生命物
