英語的修辭手法1
1、Simile 明喻
明喻是將具有共性的不同事物作對比.這種共性存在于人們的心里,而不是事物的自然屬性.

5、Synaesthesia 通感,聯(lián)覺,移覺
這種修辭法是以視.聽.觸.嗅.味等感覺直接描寫事物.通感就是把不同感官的感覺溝通起來,借聯(lián)想引起感覺轉(zhuǎn)移,“以感覺寫感覺”。通感技巧的運用,能突破語言的局限,豐富表情達意的`審美情趣,起到增強文采的藝術(shù)效果。比如:欣賞建筑的重復(fù)與變化的樣式會聯(lián)想到音樂的重復(fù)與變化的節(jié)奏;聞到酸的東西會聯(lián)想到尖銳的物體;聽到飄渺輕柔的音樂會聯(lián)想到薄薄的半透明的紗子;又比如朱自清《荷塘月色》里的“ 微風(fēng)過處送來縷縷清香,仿佛遠處高樓上渺茫的歌聲似的”。

resemblances; an extended metaphor 摘自英語專業(yè)《大學(xué)英語教程》一書

它與疑問句的不同在于它并不以得到答復(fù)為目的,而是以疑問為手段,取得修辭上的效果,其特點是:肯定問句表示強烈否定,而否定問句表示強烈的肯定.它的答案往往是不言而喻的.
例如:
①How was it possible to walk for an hour through the woods and see nothing worth of note?

例如:
、貼o light, but rather darkness visible.沒有光亮,黑暗卻清晰可見
、赥he state of this house is cheerless welcome.
18、Climax 漸進法,層進法
