Second, in the United States it was reluctantly realized by some—subconsciously if not openly—that our country was no longer isolated in either politics or tradition and that we had reached an international stature that would forever prevent us from retreating behind the artificial walls of a provincial morality or the geographical protection of our two bordering oceans.—metaphor3.War or no war, as the generations passed, it became increasingly difficult for our young people to accept standards of behavior that bore no relationship to the bustling business medium in which they were expected to battle for success.—metaphor4.The war acted merely as a catalytic agent in this breakdown of the Victorian social structure, and by precipitation our young people into a pattern of mass murder it released their inhibited violent energies which, after the shooting was over, were turned in both Europe and America to the destruction of an obsolescent nineteenth century society.—metaphor5.The prolonged stalemate of 1915-1916,the increasing insolence of Germany toward the United States, and our official reluctance to declare our status as a belligerent were intolerable to many of our idealistic citizens, and with typical American adventurousness enhanced somewhatby the strenuous jingoism of Theodore Roosevelt, our young men began to enlist under foreign flags.—metonymy6.Their energies had been whipped up and their naive destroyed by the war and now, in sleepy Gopher Prairies all over the country, they were being asked to curb those energies and resume the pose of self-deceiving Victorian innocence that they now felt to be as outmoded as the notion that their fighting had “made the world safe for democracy”.—metaphor7.After the war, it was only natural that hopeful young writers, their minds and pens inflamed against war, Babbittry, and”Puritanical”gentility, should flock to the traditional artistic center(where living was still cheap in 1919)to pour out their new-found creative strength, to tear down the old world, to flout ht morality of their grandfathers, and to give all to art, love, and sensation.—metonymy synecdoche8. Younger brothers and sisters of the war generation, who had been playing with marbles and dolls during the battles of Belleau Wood and Chateau-Thierry, and who had suffered no real disillusionment or sense of loss, now began to imitate the manners of their elders and play with the toys of vulgar rebellion.—metaphor9.These defects would disappear if only creative art were allowed to show the way to better things, but since the country was blind and deaf to everything save the glint and ring of the dollar, there was little remedy for the sensitive mind but to emigrate to Europe where”they do thingsbetter.”—personification, metonymy ,synecdoche。

1.明喻 (simile)。
(1) I see also the dull, drilled, docile, brutish masses of the Hun soldiery plodding on like a swarm of crawling locusts. (Speech on Hitler’s Invasion of the U.S.S.R.)(2) The wind (Hurricane Camile) sounded like the roar ofa train passing a few yards away. (Face to Face with Hurricane Camile)句(1)摘自于英国首相丘吉尔《关于希特勒入侵苏联的讲话》。
这位强悍的英国首相把德国凶残,野蛮的士兵比作成群结队,且对农作物可以造成灭顶之灾的蝗虫。
因为两者有着共同的特点——制造毁灭,深刻的揭露并批判了德国法西斯的凶残。
句(2)中作者把卡米尔号飓风的声响(the sound of the wind)比作在身边呼啸而过的列车发出的响声(the roar of a passing train),非常的贴切、生动、形象。

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.e.g.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.Metonymy can be derived from various sources:a. Names 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.

浅论《高级英语》中的几种常见的修辞方法作者:肖利华来源:《神州》2012年第36期摘要:《高级英语》是英语专业高年级学生的必修教材。
修辞是《高级英语》教学的一个重要的环节。
本文根据高级英语修辞的教学目的与要求,通过教学中出现的修辞格的分析,引导学生运用学到的修辞方法理解文章以期提高他们的英语欣赏水平和阅读理解能力。
关键词:高级英语修辞解读一、修辞在《高级英语》中的渗透修辞( figure of speech),“修”是修饰的意思,“辞”的本来意思是辩论的言词,后引申为一切的言词。
修辞本义就是修饰言论,也就是在使用语言的过程中,利用多种语言手段以收到尽可能好的表达效果的一种语言活动。
英语中的“修辞”(rhetoric)一词源于希腊语,本意是指“精湛的演讲”或者“说话时使用更多的词”。
英语专业高年级学生的学习目标是:具备较高水平的英语运用能力,听、说、读、写、译达到英语专业等级考试八级以上水平;口、笔译能力能担常规双语互译任务;具备较高的文学鉴赏能力;能从文体修辞、历史文化等专业角度对英美文学原著进行分析归纳、评论欣赏;掌握语言学基本原理,能以历时和共时的视角对所接触的语料进行分析比较。
因此,我们可以尝试从修辞学的角度入手,通过对修辞的深入探究,使学生运用所学的修辞方法理解文章的脉络、语言句法,解读原汁原味作品的深层涵义。
二、解读《高级英语》中的修辞(一)比喻类修辞1. 比喻( parable):即打比方。
著名文学理论家乔纳森·卡勒为比喻下的定义:比喻是认知的一种基本方式,通过把一种事物看成另一种事物而认识了它。
也就是说找到甲事物和乙事物的共同点,发现甲事物暗含在乙事物身上不为人所熟知的特征,而对甲事物有一个不同于往常的重新的认识。
比喻类修辞的共同特点是使事物的形象更加生动、逼真。
比喻类修辞通常包括:明喻( Simile)暗喻( Metaphor)等。
( 1)明喻( Simile):是常用 as 或 like 等词将具有某种共同特征的两种不同事物连接起来的一种修辞手法。
