Para.1every conceivable Para.1innumerable lamps Para.4incredibly young Para.4with the dust of centuries Para.83. metaphor: compares two different things by speaking of one in terms of the other. Unlike a simile, metaphor asserts that one thing is another thing, not just that one is like another.Dark cavern... Para.1Sepulchral atmosphere... Para.2A fairyland of... Para.4Honeycomb... Para.64. parallelism: Several parts of a sentence or several sentences are expressed similarly to show that the ideas in the parts or sentences are equal in importance. Parallelism also adds balance and rhythm and, most importantly, clarity to thesentence.The din of …Para.1Selecting, pricing... Para.3muscular, massive, and stately Para.85. onomatopoeia: the use of words that sound like the thing that they are describing. tinkle, creak, groan, creaks, squeaking, rumbling, grunts, sighsLesson 2Simile: A simile makes a comparison between two unlike things having at least one quality or characteristic in common. The two things compared must be dissimilar and the basis of resemblance is usually an abstract quality. The vehicle is almost always introduced by the word "like" or "as".Self-criticism is as necessary to us as air or water.The water lay grey and wrinkled like an elephant's skin.My very thoughts were like the ghostly rustle of dead leaves.The bus went as slowly as a snail.Her eyes were jet black, and her hair was like a waterfall.The comparison is purely imaginative, that is, the resemblance between the two unlike things in that one particular aspect exists only in our minds, and not in the nature of the things themselves.As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.Metaphor: A metaphor, like a simile, also makes a comparison between two unlike things, but the comparison is implied rather than stated. Some say it the substitution of one thing for another, or the identification of two things from different ranges of thought. Contrary to a simile in which the resemblance between two unlike things is clearly stated, in ametaphor nothing is mentioned. It is often loosely defined as "an implied comparison", " a simile without 'like' or 'as'".Metaphor is considered the most important and basic poetic figure and also the commonest the most beautiful.Snow clothes the ground.The town was stormed after a long siege.Boys and girls, tumbling in the streets and playing, were moving jewels.I had a lump in my throatAt last this intermezzo came to an end...I was again crushed by the thought......when the meaning ... sank in, jolting me...Metonymy(借代):In Latin, meta means change while onyma means name, so metonymy means the change of name. Metonymy is a figure of speech that has to do with the substitution of the name of one thing for that of another. This substituted name may be an attribute of that other thing or be closely associated with it. In other words, it involves a change of name.She was a girl who excited the emotions, but I was not one to let my heart rule my head.He took to the bottle....little old Japan adrift amid beige concrete skyscrapers ...struggle between kimono and the miniskirtI thought that Hiroshima still felt the impactMetonymy can be derived from various sources:/doc/f55842082.html,s of personsUncle Sam: the USAb.Animalsthe bear: the Soviet Unionthe dragon : the Chinese (a fight between the bear and the dragon)c.Parts of the bodyheart: feelings and emotionshead, brain: wisdom, intelligence, reasongrey hair: old aged.Profession:the press: newspapers, reporters etc.He met the press yesterday evening at the Grand Hotel.the bar: the legal professione.location of government, business etc.Downing Street: the British Governmentthe White House: the US president and his governmentthe Capital Hill: US CongressWall Street: US financial circlesHollywood: American filmmaking industryEuphemism: t he substitution of an agreeable or inoffensive expression for one that may offend or suggest sth unpleasante.g.:He was sentenced to prison---He is now living at the government's expenses.The boy is a bit slow for his age.to go to heaven---deadto go to the bathroom, do one's business, answer the nature's call, put an end to my life.Each day of suffering that helps to free me from earthly cares.Irony:Hiroshima---the Liveliest City in Japanthe good fortune that my illness has brought meAnti-Climax:a town known throughout the world for its---oystersAlliteration:slip to a stoptested and treatedRhetorical QuestionWas I not at the scene of the crime?Lesson 51. Alliteration: the use of several words together that begin with the same sound or letter in order to make a special effect, especially in poetry. 头韵dull, drilled, docile...for his hearth and homewith its clanking, heel-clicking...Assonance: the use of the same or similar, vowel sounds in successive words谐音、类韵:相同或相似元音的重复。
