一、比喻(the figures of speech) 比喻是语言艺术的升华。英语中常见的比喻方法有三种：明喻、隐喻和借喻。 1.明喻(the simile) 格式：本体 + 显著比喻词(like/as/as if---) + 喻体 常用介词like 、连词as，as if，as---so、动词seem等以及句型A---to B as C---to D等等表示“好像”意思的比喻说法就叫明喻。 例如： （1）Teacher, you are like the sun, but more magnificent, and more brillant. 老师，您像太阳，又比太阳更灿烂更辉煌。 （2）Your soul is as pure as snow, your personality is as noble as pine trees! All praise to you, our beloved teacher. 您的心灵像雪一样纯净，您的人格像青松一般高洁！赞美您，敬爱的老师。 英语中除上述的用介词、连词或句型等的明喻表达方式外，还有许多常用的明喻习语。例如： (1)as clear as crystal清如水晶 (2)as weak as water软弱无力 这类利用类似汉语的押韵和叠声增加语言的美感。与此同时，又可以使语言短小精悍，表达生动、形象。 2.隐喻(the metaphor) 格是：本体 + is/are + 喻体 例如： （1）Time is a river搜趣网, of which memory is the water. Oh my friend, what I scoop up from the river is all yearning of you. 时间是河、记忆如水，朋友，我从河里捧起来的都是对你的思念。 （2）Time is money. 时间就是金钱。 注意：英语中存在着许多数词习语和俚语，用作隐喻（也有个别用作明喻）。例如 ： (1)You are one in a million.你真是人见人爱。 (2)He has one over the eight.他酩酊大醉。 （3）This film star is a nine days' wonder; I doubt whether anyone will remember her in a year's time.这位电影明星现在红极一时（也指昙花一现），但我认为一年以后人们不见得还记得她。 注意：英语中还有许多隐喻成语。例如： （1）to teach fish to swim 班门弄斧 （2）to plough the sand 白费力气 （3）up the tree骑虎难下；lame duck强弩之末；above board光明正大
