  • 第4题：

    What is the main rhetoric device used in “The plowman homeward plods his weary way.”?

    A.Metaphor.
    B.Metonymy.
    C.Synecdoche.
    D.Transferred epithet.

    答案：D
    解析：
    本题考查修辞学。metaphor（隐喻／暗喻）是在两个不同事物之间进行比较，但它不直接点明两个事物之间的相似性，而是进行隐藏的比较，例如：All the world is a stage.整个世界是一台戏(用stage喻指all the world)。metonymy（转喻）指直接用比喻事物代替本体事物，例如：The buses inAmerica are on strike now.美国的公共汽车司机正在罢工（这里buses喻指司机drivers）。synecdoche（提喻）指用一般代替特殊或以特殊代替一般，部分代替整体或整体代替部分，或用原材料代表用该材料制造的东西。比如以hands代替persons，以Solomon代替a wise man，以the smiling year代替the spring。transferred epithet（移就）指用本应该描述甲事物性质状态的词语来形容乙事物，而乙事物却根本不具备这种性质或功能。例如题干中的“The plowman homewardplods hisweary way.”句中形容词“weary”本来应该修饰的是“the plowman”，作者在这里用来修饰“way”，使这句话勾勒出一幅筋疲力尽的农夫步履蹒跚地走向家园的画面。故本题选D。

    Which of the following sentence best responds to “But it will be much easier.., than to conceal the gulf that exists within Europe itself” in para. 13?
    A

    But some of Europe’s leaders are unwilling to take lessons from the country they blame for creating this crises.

    B

    It is true that Mr. Obama’s focus has been on trying to rebuild ties with Europe.

    C

    I am only using Germany to prove the point that Europe does not speak with one voice.

    D

    No one else is talking about “a global new deal”.


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    题目问的是：下列哪一项最能回应“比起隐藏欧洲内部已存在的分歧，……要简单得多”选项C意为“我只是用德国来证明欧洲并没有统一口径”，两者都说的是欧盟各成员国之间存在分歧。故C正确。

    正确答案： C
    解析：

  • 第15题：

    What rhetorical device is used in the sentence He is an all__________purpose basket?

    A．Pun.
    B．Simile.
    C．Metaphor.
    D．Transferred epithet.

    答案：C
    解析：
    考查英语修辞。pun指“双关”，simile指“明喻”，metaphor指“暗喻”，transferred epithet指“移就”。He is an all—purpose basket运用了隐喻的修辞手法，暗指“他是一个多面手”。故选C。

  • 第16题：

    What rhetoric device is used in the sentence "Many hands make light work"


    A.Synecdoche.

    B.Simile.

    C.Metaphor.

    D.Oxymoron.

    答案：A
    解析：
    考查修辞手法。Synecdoche是提喻，即用个别代替群体或者用群体代替个别；simile是明喻，如I wanderedlonely as a cloud；metaphor是暗喻，如Myloveis a red red rose；oxymoron是矛盾修饰法。如sweet sorrow。题干中Manyhandsmake lightwork意思是“众人拾柴火焰高”，其中的hands代指people，属于用部分代替整体，使用的是提喻修辞手法。故选A。
