新GRE寫作:修辭手法的運用
在GRE寫作中,我們常用的26種修辭手法應用得并不多,一般常用的也不過十幾種,在寫作中恰當的運用修辭,會使文章看起來更加生動。
1) Simile:It is a figure of speech which makes a comparison between two unlike elements having at least one quality or characteristic in common。 To make the comparison, words like as, asas, as if and like are used to transfer the quality we associate with one to the other。For example, As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country。
2) Metaphor:It is like a simile, also makes a comparison between two unlike elements, but unlike a simile, this comparison is implied rather than stated。For example, the world is a stage。
以上兩種的喻類修辭比較簡單,在運用的時候想到什么適合的本體和喻體就可以進行喻。
3) Analogy :It is also a form of comparison, but unlike simile or metaphor which usually uses comparison on one point of resemblance, analogy draws a parallel between two unlike things that have several common qualities or points of resemblance。
類比學習最好的老師就是Argument,阿狗里面的false analogy類比很多都是我們鉆牛角尖找出來的,但是,實際上我們很多的情況下再無話可說的時候都可以運用類比。比如說,我們在討論政府職能的時候,假如我們不了解政府職能,我們可以從我們了解的組織談起,比如我們可以討論班級、學校、公司,或者一些大型小型組織,從一個具體的問題到另一個問題而避免談一些不熟悉的問題。具體的陳述可以如下開展類似:
When comes to the issue of empowerment
1. This point can be better illustrated by comparing a class with a business。 然后business bla bla
2.Teachers who possess power and exert it to conduct class play a similar role as business managers do。 然后,只討論課堂不討論商業了。
例如:
Student who is granted/ given/ empowered/ endowed are more motivated power are not rightly supervised and restricted and the class get out of control will lead to/ result in/ turn into/ prove to be flop/ fiasco/ blunder/failure/ catastrophe。
3.Elaborate a class進行詳細的class描寫。
4.點睛之筆 So is a business。類比其實就是某種層面上的跑題,大部分的跑題是無意識的,但是我們要讓這種有目的的跑題為我們的文章服務,這就是學習類比修辭的意義所在。
4) Personification:I:t gives human form of feelings to animals, or life and personal attributes to inanimate objects, or to ideas and abstractions。For example, the wind whistled through the trees。
5) Hyperbole:: It is the deliberate use of overstatement or exaggeration to achieve emphasis。
For instance, he almost died laughing。
6) Understatement:: It is the opposite of hyperbole, or overstatement。 It achieves its effect of emphasizing a fact by deliberately understating it, impressing the listener or the reader more by what is merely implied or left unsaid than by bare statement。For instance, It is no laughing matter。
7) Euphemism:: It is the substitution of an agreeable or inoffensive expression for one that may offend or suggest something unpleasant。For instance, we refer to die as pass away。
8) Metonymy : It is a figure of speech that has to do with the substitution of the mane of one thing for that of another。For instance, the pen is mightier than the sword 。
9) Synecdoche : It is involves the substitution of the part for the whole, or the whole for the part。For instance, they say theres bread and work for all。 She was dressed in silks。
10) Antonomasia :It has also to do with substitution。 It is not often mentioned now, though it is still in frequent use。
For example, Solomon for a wise man。 Daniel for a wise and fair judge。 Judas for a traitor。
11) Pun : It is a play on words, or rather a play on the form and meaning of words。
For instance, a cannon-ball took off his legs, so he laid down his arms。 (Here arms has two meanings: a persons body; weapons carried by a soldier.
以上的內容在寫作中加以靈活的運用,必將為GRE寫作部分增色不少。
