(L.1, Para.3)5. Antonomasia(换称) is a figure of speech that involves the use of epithet or title in place of a name, and also the use of a proper name in place of a common noun.(1) Safe in a Pullman, I have whirled through the gloomy, God-forsaken villages of Iowa and Kansas, and the malarious tidewater hamlets of Georgia. (L.7, Para5)6. Antithetical Contrast(反衬对比) is a figure of speech combined by antithesis and contrast, and often has two sharply contrasting ideas balanced across a sentence (or neighboring sentences) (1) Here was the very heart of industrial America, the center of its most lucrative and characteristic activity, the boast and pride of the richest and grandest nation ever seen on earth—and here was a sense so dreadfully hideous, so intolerably bleak and forlorn that it reduced the whole aspiration of man to a macabre and depressing joke. (L.5, Para.1)(2) Here was wealth beyond computation, almost beyond imagination—and here were habitations so abominable that they would have disgraced a race of alley cats. (L.10, Para1)7. Hyperbole(夸张) is a way of speaking or writing that makes something should be better, more exciting, dangerous, etc. than it really is.(1) What I allude to is the unbroken and agonizing ugliness, the sheer revolting monstrousness, of every house in sight.

(L.3, Para.2)(3) But in Westmoreland they prefer that uremic yellow, and so they have the most loathsome towns and villages ever seen by mortal eye. (L.8, Para.4)(4) I have seen, I believe, all of the most unlovely towns of the world; they are all to be found in the United States. (L.2, Para.5)(5) It is as if some titanic and aberrant genius, uncompromisingly inimical to man, had devoted all the ingenuity of Hell to the making of them. (L.14, Para.5)8. Metaphor(暗喻) is a figure of speech that describes something by referring to it as something else, in order to show that the two things have the same qualities and to make the description more powerful.(1) Here was the very heart of industrial America… (L.5, Para.1)(2)…on their low sides they bury themselves swinishly in the mud.

Simile(明喻) is a figure of speech that often uses the words like or as, etc. to make a comparison between to unlike elements having at least one quality or characteristic in common.(1) …one blinked before them as one blinks before a man with face shot away. (L.7, Para.2)(2) …a crazy little church just west of Jeannette, set like a dormer window on the side of a bare leprous hill… (L.9, Para.2)(3) …a steel stadium like a huge rat-trap somewhere further down the line. (L.12, Para.2)10. Rhetorical Question(修辞疑问句) is a figure of speech in the form of a question posed for its persuasive effect without the expectation of a reply. Rhetorical question encourages the listener to think about what the answer (often obvious) to the question might be.(1) But what have they done? (L.11, Para.3)(2) Was it necessary to adopt that shocking color? (L.4, Para.4)(3) Are they so frightful because the valley is full of foreigners—dull, intense brutes, with no love of beauty in them? (L.1, Para.6)(4) Then why did not these foreigners set up similar abominations in the countries that they came from? (L.2, Para.6)。

Comment on writing skills In the passage “S peech on Hitler’s invasion of the U.S.S.R.” ,Churchill used many writings skills to make his speech more powerful, persuasive and impression .Here I will analyze some of the skills in the speech.
I Rhetoric
i. Alliteration
For instance ,“I see also the dull, drilled, docile brutish masses of the Hun soldiery plodding on like a swarm of crawling locusts”“...Russian fighting for his hearth and home...”In these sentences ,“dull ,drilled, docile ”and “hearth and home ”each have the same start words“d”
and“h” .It has to do with the sound rather than the sense of words for effect so that makes his speech sound more powerful. It is a device that repeats the same sound at frequent intervals and since the sound repeated is usually the initial consonant sound .
ii Onomatopoeia
It is a device that uses words which imitate the sounds made by an object (animate or inanimate), or which are associated with or suggestive of some action or movement.
In paragraph 8,we can see the two words “clanking, heel-clicking”,“clanking ”refers to the sounds of swords and sabers , and
“ heel-clicking ”means the heel sounds of Nazi .
These two words makes audience easily hatred of Hitler’s Nazi regime. II Specific words
Churchill pays particular attention to choose the words.
i Absolute-sounding words
In paragraph ten, he said,“…Hitler and every vestige of the Nazi régime.” “We will never parley, we will never negotiate with Hitler or any of his gang .”Absolute words like “ever ,never, any” all strengthen his voice.
ii Formal words
Churchill replaced simple ,everyday words with the italicized words .e.g. “There only remained the task of c omposing it”,”Composing it ”means “preparing”;“H e devoted the whole day to it…”here ,“devoted”refers to “spent…on it”etc .These italicized words makes his speech more powerful.
To sum up, in this speech, there are many writing skills such as use biblical allusion ,use six “I see”
rhetorical ,questions ,inversion ,parallel etc. ,all these helped Churchill to show his strong determination to defeat Nazi.。
