11.?Pun 雙關語

A pun is a joke that makes a play on words. A pun, also called paronomasia, uses words that have several meanings or words that sound similar but have different meanings.

雙關語，也被稱為文字游戲，采用具有多種含義或發音相似但意義不同的詞來表達笑料。

12.?Parody 仿擬

Parody is an imitation of a particular writer, artist or a genre, exaggerating it deliberately to produce a comic effect. The humorous effect in parody is achieved by imitating and overstressing noticeable features of a famous piece of literature, as in caricatures, where certain peculiarities of a person are highlighted to achieve a humorous effect.

仿擬是對特定作家、藝術家或流派的模仿，故意夸大它以產生喜劇效果。這種幽默效果是通過模仿和過分強調文學作品的特點，比如漫畫會通過突出人的特點來達到幽默的效果。

Example 例句：

??Rome was not built in a day, nor in a year.

羅馬不是一天建成的，也不是一年建成的。（仿擬羅馬不是一天建成的）

13.?Rhetorical Question 修辭疑問

A rhetorical question is a question that you ask without expecting an answer. The question might be one that does not have an answer. It might also be one that has an obvious answer but you have asked the question to make a point, to persuade or for literary effect.

修辭疑問是指提出一個不需要答案的問題，這個問題本身可能沒有答案，或者可能有一個顯而易見的答案，但是通過問這個問題提出了觀點，達到說服或文學效果。

Example 例句：

??What is the meaning of life?

生活的意義是什么？

15.?Paradox 悖論

A Paradox is a statement that may seem absurd or contradictory but yet can be true, or at least makes sense. Paradoxes are often contrary to what is commonly believed and so play an important part in furthering our understanding in literature and everyday life, or they can simply be an entertaining brain teaser.

悖論是一種看似荒謬或矛盾的陳述，但也可能是真實的，或者至少是有道理的。悖論往往與人們通常相信的相反，因此在促進我們對文學和日常生活的理解中起著重要作用，或者也可能只是一個有趣的腦筋急轉彎。

矛盾修飾法被用于各種用途，有時被用來為讀者或聽眾制造某種戲劇，有時用來讓人停下來思考，無論是引人發笑還是迷惘。

Example 例句：

??Great Depression, pretty ugly, painfully beautiful, etc.

大蕭條，非常丑陋，痛并美麗

??A little pain never hurt anyone.

一點點痛苦不會傷害到任何人。

??"A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business." - Henry Ford

17.?Rhetorical Repetition 重復

Repetition is a literary device that repeats the same words or phrases a few times to make an idea clearer. As a rhetorical device, it could be a word, a phrase or a full sentence or a poetical line repeated to emphasize its significance in the entire text.

重復是一種重復幾次相同的詞或短語，使一個理論變得更清楚的文學手段。它可以是一個詞、一個短語、一個完整的句子或一句詩，通過反復強調凸顯它在整個文本中的意義。

Example 例句：

??It must be created by the blood and the work of all of us who believe in the future, who believe in man and his glorious man—made destiny.

頭韻發生在當一行中的一系列單詞（或相近）有相同的第一個輔音。除了繞口令，頭韻也用在詩歌、歌詞、甚至商店或品牌名稱。

類比是兩種事物進行比較以顯示它們的相似之處。有時被比較的東西會非常相似，但有時它們可能非常不同，類比用一個事物解釋了另一個事物的另一方面，并強調了它們的相似之處。

21.?Symbolism 象征

Symbolism is the practice or art of using an object or a word to represent an abstract idea. An action, person, place, word, or object can all have a symbolic meaning. When an author wants to suggest a certain mood or emotion, he can also use symbolism to hint at it, rather than just blatantly saying it.

象征手法是指用一個物體或一個詞來代表抽象的概念，一個動作、人、地點、一個單詞或事物都可以具有象征意義。當一個作家想要表達某種心情或情緒時，他也可以用象征手法暗示，而不是直接說出來。

Example 例句：

??Black is used to represent death or evil.

黑色被用來代表死亡或邪惡。

??A chain can symbolize the coming together of two things.

鏈條象征著兩件事的結合。
