修辞一:比喻
比喻是最常见的修辞手法,是以两种具有共同特征的事物或现象进行对比,从而更生动、更深刻地说明道理,增强语言的表现力。比喻分为明喻和和暗喻。
例如:She is an angel.是暗喻;
而She is as innocent as an angel.是明喻。
(1)明喻
直接表明本体和喻体的相似之处,常用的明喻标志词有 like, as, seem, as...as, as if, as though, similar to等。
基本格式是:本体+比喻词+喻体。
例如:The USA is like a big melting pot where immigrants of different cultures or races form an integrated society.
The USA是本体,喻体是melting pot, 比喻词是like, 喻体和本体的相似之处都是拥有“包容”的特点。
