1) Metaphor：(暗喻)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.
2) Simile：(明喻)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， as……as， 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.
以上兩種的喻類修辭比較簡(jiǎn)單，在運(yùn)用的時(shí)候想到什么適合的本體和喻體就可以進(jìn)行“喻”。
3) Analogy： (類比)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.
類比的學(xué)習(xí)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的找出來的，但是，實(shí)際上我們很多的情況下再無話可說的時(shí)候都可以運(yùn)用類比，比如說，我們?cè)谟懻撜毮艿臅r(shí)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(jí)，學(xué)校，公司，或者一些大型小型組織，從一個(gè)具體的問題到另一個(gè)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(你熟悉的) with a business(你不熟悉的)。 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(yè)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(jìn)行詳細(xì)的class描寫
4. 點(diǎn)睛之筆 So is a business.類比其實(shí)就是某種層面上的跑題，大部分的跑題是無意識(shí)的，但是我們要讓這種有目的的跑題為我們的文章服務(wù)，這就是學(xué)習(xí)類比修辭的意義所在。
4) Personification： (擬人)It gives human form of feelings to animals， or life and personal attributes(賦予) to inanimate(無生命的) objects， or to ideas and abstractions(抽象)。For example， the wind whistled through the trees.
5) Hyperbole： (夸張) It is the deliberate use of overstatement or exaggeration to achieve emphasis.
For instance， he almost died laughing.
6) Understatement： (含蓄陳述) It is the opposite of hyperbole， or overstatement. It achieves its effect of emphasizing a fact by deliberately(故意地) 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： (委婉) It is the substitution of an agreeable or inoffensive(無冒犯) expression for one that may offend or suggest something unpleasant.For instance， we refer to "die" as " pass away".
8) Metonymy (轉(zhuǎn)喻) 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 (words) is mightier than the sword (forces)。
9) Synecdoche (提喻) It is involves the substitution of the part for the whole， or the whole for the part.For instance， they say there‘s bread and work for all. She was dressed in silks.
10) Antonomasia (換喻)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： (雙關(guān)語) 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 person‘s body; weapons carried by a soldier.)
