6. Hurricane A hurricane is a tropical cyclone, occurring in the North Atlantic Ocean or the Northeast Pacific Ocean, east of the International Dateline.

7. A tropical cyclone is a storm system characterized by a large low-pressure center and numerous thunderstorms that produce strong winds and heavy rain. Tropical cyclones strengthen when water evaporated from the ocean is released as the saturated air rises, resulting in condensation of water vapor contained in the moist air.

8. The term "tropical" refers both to the geographic origin of these systems, which usually form in tropical regions of the globe, and to their formation in maritime tropical air masses. The term "cyclone" refers to such storms' cyclonic nature, with counterclockwise rotation in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise rotation in the Southern Hemisphere. Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is referred to by names such as hurricane, typhoon, tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression, and simply cyclone.

9. Effects of Tropical cyclones Tropical cyclones out at sea cause large waves, heavy rain, and high winds, disrupting international shipping and, at times, causing shipwrecks. Tropical cyclones stir up water, leaving a cool wake behind them, which causes the region to be less favorable for subsequent tropical cyclones. On land, strong winds can damage or destroy vehicles, buildings, bridges, and other outside objects, turning loose debris into deadly flying projectiles.

10. The storm surge, or the increase in sea level due to the cyclone, is typically the worst effect from landfalling tropical cyclones, historically resulting in 90% of tropical cyclone deaths. The broad rotation of a landfalling tropical cyclone, and vertical wind shear at its periphery, spawns tornadoes ( 龙 卷风）. Tornadoes can also be spawned as a result of eyewall mesovortices, which persist until landfall.

11. hurricane The word hurricane, used in the North Atlantic and Northeast Pacific, is derived from huracán, the Spanish word for the Carib/Taino storm god, Juracán. This god is believed by scholars to have been at least partially derived from the Mayan creator god, Huracan. Huracan was believed by the Mayans （玛雅语） to have created dry land out of the turbulent waters. The god was also credited with later destroying the "wooden people", the precursors to the "maize people", with an immense storm and flood. Huracan is also the source of the word orcan, another word for a particularly strong European windstorm.CaribTaino JuracánMayanHuracan

12. typhoon The word typhoon, which is used today in the Northwest Pacific, may be derived from Hindi/Urdu, Persian and Arabic ţūfān (طوفان), which in turn originates from Greek Typhon (Τυφών), a monster from Greek mythology associated with storms. The word is also similar to Chinese "taifeng" ("toifung" in Cantonese) ( 颱風 – great winds), and also to the Japanese "taifu" ( 台風 ), which may explain why "typhoon" came to be used for East Asian cyclones. HindiUrduPersianArabicGreekTyphonGreek mythology

13. Naming Storms reaching tropical storm strength were initially given names to eliminate confusion when there are multiple systems in any individual basin at the same time, which assists in warning people of the coming storm. In most cases, a tropical cyclone retains its name throughout its life; however, under special circumstances, tropical cyclones may be renamed while active. These names are taken from lists that vary from region to region and are usually drafted a few years ahead of time.

14. The lists are decided on, depending on the regions, either by committees of the World Meteorological Organization or by national weather offices involved in the forecasting of the storms. Each year, the names of particularly destructive storms (if there are any) are "retired" and new names are chosen to take their place. Different countries have different local conventions; for example, in Japan, storms are referred to by number (each year), such as 台風第 9 号 (Typhoon #9).World Meteorological Organization

15. Hurricane Camille Hurricane Camille was the third and strongest tropical cyclone and second hurricane during the 1969 Atlantic hurricane season. The second of three catastrophic Category 5 hurricanes to make landfall in the United States during the 20th century (the others being 1935's Labor Day hurricane and 1992's Hurricane Andrew), which it did near the mouth of the Mississippi River on the night of August 17,1969 Atlantic hurricane season Labor Day hurricaneHurricane Andrew

16. Camille was the only Atlantic hurricane to exhibit officially recorded sustained wind speeds of at least 190 miles per hour (310 km/h) until Allen equaled that number in 1980, and remains the only Atlantic hurricane in recorded history to make landfall with wind speeds at or above such level. By central pressure, in turn, Camille was the second strongest U.S. landfalling hurricane in recorded history, second only to the Labor Day Hurricane in 1935. It was also the first modern Category 5 hurricane to ever receive a person's name when making landfall in the United States.Atlantic hurricaneAllenLabor Day Hurricane in 1935

27. National Guard The National Guard of the United States is a reserve military force composed of state National Guard militia members or units under federally recognized active or inactive armed force service for the United States. Militia members are citizen soldiers, meaning they work part time for the National Guard and hold a civilian job as well. The National Guard of the United States is a joint reserve component of the United States Army and the United States Air Force and maintains two subcomponents: the Army National Guard of the United States for the Army and the Air Force's Air National Guard of the United States.

30. The Salvation Army The Salvation Army is a Protestant Christian church known for its extensive philanthropy and charity work. It is an international movement that currently works in over a hundred countries. It was founded in 1865 in the United Kingdom by William Booth and his wife Catherine as the East London Christian Mission with a quasi-military structure. The theology of the Salvation Army is "mainstream Protestant".

31. In 2006 the organization was operating in 111 countries in the world. Each country has its divisions and local corps, with a commander at the head of all. The army operates hospitals, community centers, alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs, emergency and disaster services, social work centers and recreation facilities. Support of the vast undertakings in all parts of the world depend upon voluntary contributions and profits from the sale of publications.

34. The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is an international humanitarian movement with approximately 97 million volunteers, members and staff worldwide which was founded to protect human life and health, to ensure respect for all human beings, and to prevent and alleviate human suffering, without any discrimination based on nationality, race, sex, religious beliefs, class or political opinions.

35. Emblem of the ICRC

36. Jean Henry Dunant (1828-1910), a Swiss citizen, urged the formation of voluntary aid societies for relief of war victims. In 1864, delegates from 16 nations met in Switzerland, and the Geneva Convention of 1864 for the Amelioration of the Condition of the Wounded and Sick of Armies in the Field was signed. It provided for the neutrality of the personnel of the medical services of armed forces, the humane treatment of the wounded, the neutrality of civilians who voluntarily assisted them, and the use of an international emblem to mark medical personnel and supplies. In honor of Dunant’s nationality a red dross on a white background – the Swiss flag with colors reversed – was chosen as the symbol (which in Moslem areas is replaced by a red crescent and in Iran by a red lion and sun.)

37. The mission of the ICRC and its responsibilities within the Movement The official mission of the ICRC as an impartial, neutral, and independent organization is to stand for the protection of the life and dignity of victims of international and internal armed conflicts. According to the 1997 Seville Agreement, it is the "Lead Agency" of the Movement in conflicts. The core tasks of the Committee, which are derived from the Geneva Conventions and its own statutes, are the following:

38. to monitor compliance of warring parties with the Geneva Conventions to organize nursing and care for those who are wounded on the battlefield to supervise the treatment of prisoners of war to help with the search for missing persons in an armed conflict (tracing service) to organize protection and care for civil populations to arbitrate between warring parties in an armed conflict

39. The Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement The Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is made up of three parts:  The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is a private humanitarian institution founded in 1863 in Geneva, Switzerland by Jean Henry Dunant. Its 25-member committee has a unique authority under international humanitarian law to protect the life and dignity of the victims of international and internal armed conflicts. The ICRC was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize on three occasions (in 1917, 1944 and 1963).

40.  The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) was founded in 1919 and today it coordinates activities between the 186 National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. On an international level, the Federation leads and organizes relief assistance missions responding to large-scale emergencies. The International Federation Secretariat is based in Geneva, Switzerland. In 1963, the Federation (then known as the League of Red Cross Societies) was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize jointly with the ICRC.

41.  National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies exist in nearly every country in the world. Currently 186 National Societies are recognized by the ICRC and admitted as full members of the Federation. Each entity works in its home country according to the principles of international humanitarian law and the statutes of the international Movement.

44. The Seabees, or SeaBees, are the Construction Battalions (CBs) of the United States Navy. The Seabees have a history of building bases, bulldozing and paving thousands of miles of roadway and airstrips, and accomplishing myriad other construction projects in a wide variety of military theaters dating back to World War II.

45. III. Language points 1. Face to face with Hurricane Camille. face to face: The phrase in this context means “confronting one another.” This phrase connotes a sense of urgency and danger. The confrontation is generally with something dangerous, difficult or hard to resolve, e.g., face to face with the enemy, face to face with the tiger, face to face with the problem.

46. 2. We can batten down and ride it out. (para 4) A metaphor, comparing the house in a hurricane to a ship fighting a storm at sea. We can make the necessary preparations and survive the hurricane without much damage. batten: to fasten canvas over the hatches of a ship, especially in preparing for a storm ride it out: to stay afloat during a storm without too much damage

47. 3. Everybody out the back door to the cars. an elliptical sentence showing the tension and urgency of the moment. The full sentence might read: “Everybody go out through the back door and run to the cars.”

48. 4. A moment later …through the air. A personification, the hurricane acting as a very strong person lifting something heavy and throwing it through the air in one mighty swipe: in a big, hard, sweeping blow skim: to throw so as to cause to bounce swiftly and lightly

49. 5. a hurricane party …vantage point. The people in the Richelieu Apartments held a party to enjoy the unusual and impressive spectacle of the hurricane because the apartment provided an unusually clear and broad view of the storm. spectacular: transferred epithet, modifying the “storm” and not “vantage point”, meaning impressive to see and strikingly unusual.

50. 6. Strips of clothing festooned the standing trees. A metaphor. Bits of clothing were hanging on the trees as if decorating them with festoons. festoon: a wreath or garland of flowers, leaves, paper, etc. hanging in a loop or curve

51. 7. blowndown power lines…over the rods. a simile, blowndown power lines compared to black spaghetti blowndown power lines: Wires carrying electricity were blown down by the wind. They lay in a tangled mess on the ground. black spaghetti: Italian noodles, generally white but called black here because of the black color of the power lines

52. 8. Camille, meanwhile … over the Atlantic Ocean. raked its way: a metaphor. The word “rake” is used figuratively here meaning to attack and devastate as it moved along. rampaging flood: violent, raging floods mountain slides: the fall of a mass of rock, snow, earth, etc. down a mountain slope breaking up over the Atlantic Ocean: the storm clouds finally dispersing as the hurricane reached the Atlantic Ocean

53. 9. But the blues… the adults. But sometimes the grown-up people felt a bit unhappy and depressed. the blues: short for blue devils; a depressed, unhappy feeling (American colloquialism)

54. IV: Text analysis 1. Genre A piece of narration Simply defined, narration is the telling of a story. A good story has a beginning, a middle and an end, even though it may start in the middle or at some other point in the action and move backward to the earlier happenings. Narration is concerned with action, with life in notion, with a meaningful series of actions. It revolves around people, called characters, in some kind of struggle or conflict against other people, nature, society or themselves.

55. In the story the leading character is called the hero or protagonist and the people or forces he fights against is called the antagonist. The actions, incidents and events are generally presented in order of their occurrence, following the natural time sequence of the happenings (chronological order). As the conflict develops, suspense and tension increase until the highest point or the climax of the conflict is reached.

56. After the climax, the story quickly moves to a conclusion, which is sometimes called denouement. Action (plot) usually dominates narration; however, some narratives focus on characters, theme (the idea behind the story), or atmosphere (the mood or tone).

57. Types of narration 1) Chronological order narration--- The actions, that is, incidents and events are generally presented in order of their occurrence, following the natural time sequence of the happening. It is the basic narration. Its effect is to make the event has clear initial and end point.

58. 2) Inverted narration---To narrate the consequence of an event firstly and then come back to narrate the process of development of the event. The effect is to achieve attraction, vividness. 3) Interspersed narration---to intersperse a related event in the narration. The effect is to give an explanation or supplementary remarks about the main event.

59. The key elements of narration: actions (plot), characters, point of view, setting, conflict, climax, theme.  Actions (plot)---a plot is a series of events and character actions that relate to the central conflict. Action usually dominates narration.  Characters---a character is a person, or sometimes event an animal, who takes part in the action of a story or other literary work.

60.  Point of view---two angles: the first person “I”, the third person “he” or “she”. “I”---to narrate what I see, hear, feel. It is real, hospital to readers. It is also easy for narrator give commence or express the feelings. “he” or “she”--- it is objective to reflect the events, even the more complicated events or figures.  Setting---the setting is the time and place in which the story happens. The authors often use descriptions of landscape, scenery, buildings, seasons or weather to provide a strong sense of setting.

61.  Conflict--- the conflict is a struggle between two people or things in narration. The main character is usually on one side of the central conflict. The main character may struggle against another important character, against the forces of nature, against society, or even against something inside himself of herself (feelings, emotions, illness).  Climax---as the conflict develops, suspense and tension increase until the highest point or the climax of the struggle is reached.  Theme—the theme is the central idea or belief in a story.

62. 2. The elements of narration: Plot ---it describes the heroic struggle of the Koshaks and their friends against the forces of a devastating hurricane. Setting ---time: Aug. 17 -- 18, in 1969. place: Gulfport, Mississippi.

63. Characters ---protagonist: the Koshaks and their friends. antagonist: hurricane. Climax ---the paragraph 27: the forceful attack of the hurricane had passed. Point of view ---the third person Theme ---the last para: human lives are more important than the material possessions

64. 4. Organization ： --introduction (para 1- 6) --development (para 7 – 26) --climax (Para 27) --conclusion (para 28 – 39)

65. Organization of the Text Introductory paragraphs 1 - 6 --- time --- place --- background --- conflict: man versus hurricanes --- character: John Koshak

66. Organization of the Text Development (para 7 – 26) The writer builds up and sustains the suspense in the story by describing in detail and vividly the incidents showing how the Koshaks and their friends struggled against each onslaught of the hurricane.

67. Organization of the Text Climax (para 27) The writer gives order an logical movement to the sequence of happenings by describing a series of actions in the order of their occurrence. The story reaches its climax in paragraph 27.

68. Organization of the Text Conclusion (para 28 -39) The theme in the story Human lives are important and not material possessions. The family survived the storm.

69. Summary Face to Face with Hurricane Camille describes the heroic struggle of the Koshaks and their friends against the forces of a devastating hurricane. The story focuses mainly on action but the writer clearly and sympathetically describes the characters in the story.

70. Writing skills 1. making effective use of verbs 2. using many elliptical and short, simple sentences to achieve certain effect

71. V. Rhetorical Devices 1. personification 2. simile 3. metaphor 4. transferred epithet 5. ellipsis

72. Personification 1. A moment later, the hurricane, in one mighty swipe, lifted the entire roof off the house and skimmed it 40 feet through the air. (P.18) 2. It seized a 600,000 gallon Gulfport oil tank and dumped it 3.5 miles away. (P.19)

73. Personification Personification is a figure which represents inanimate objects as having life. 拟人是把无生命的事物拟作有生命的东西，使它们具 有人的特性、思想和行为的修辞手段。拟人也包括把 动物和其他生物赋予人的特征。拟人修辞易于深刻描 写事物，充分抒发感情，使描写对象生动形象，增加 情趣，给读者留下深刻的印象。拟人格在童话、神话、 诗歌、寓言和散文中用得较多。 Time will tell. The moans of the autumn wind 盼望着，盼望着，春风来了，春天的脚步近了。 — — 朱自清

74. Simile 1. The children went from adult to adult like buckets in a fire brigade. (P.11) 2. The wind sounded like the roar of a train passing a few yards away. (P.13) 3. …and blowndown power lines coiled like black spaghetti over the road. (P.28)

75. Metaphor 1. We can batten down and ride it out. (P. 4) 2. Wind and rain now whipped the house. (P. 7) 3. Camille, meanwhile, had raked its way northward across Mississippi,…(P.32)

76. 比喻 比喻是英语中最常用的辞格，是以此喻彼 (to speak of one thing in terms of another) 手段。 它有一个基础，四个要素： 一个基础就是心理上的联想。比喻辞格是对感 知过程中产生的某种联想进行描述的一种语言 艺术手法。联想必然产生于对不同类事物的比 拟；同类事物的比较不构成联想，也就不构成 比喻辞格。

77. 在联想的基础上，比喻具备四项要素： 本体 (the signified) ：即所要表述，描绘的对象，是 被喻者。 喻体 (the signifier) ：即用来表述，描绘本体的比喻者。 相似点 (similarity) ：即联想的依据。 相异点 (dissimilarity) ：即本体与喻体之间在整体上的 极不相同之处。 一般说来，比喻的艺术价值与相异性成正比，与相 似性成反比。相似性越大，越缺乏表现力；相异性越大， 所构成的比喻越新鲜，越富有表现力，其条件是可接受 性。

78. The growing savings and loan scandal is a time bomb for President Bush, that might not go off this year but could cause him serious political troubles by 1992. 牵连日广的储蓄业丑闻是布什总统的一枚 定时炸弹。这枚炸弹虽然不定在今年爆炸，却 可能在 1992 年为布什带来重大的政治困扰。 此句讲的是 1990 年美国国内最轰动的事 件 —— 一大批储货银行的倒闭，涉及政府管理 上的弊端。

79. Simile ：明喻 A simile is a figure of speech in which a similarity between two objects is directly expressed. (H. Holman, A Handbook to Literature) 明喻是把两个物的相似点直接表现出来的修辞 格。这两个物有许多不同之处，但是在外表、 品质、行为或效果等方面至少有一点是相似的。

80. New China is like a red sun rising in the east. 本体 比喻词 喻体 从结构上讲，明喻包括 “ 本体 ” 、 “ 喻体 ” 、和 “ 比喻 词 ” 。本体是被比喻的对象，喻体是用来做比喻的对 象，比喻词用在本体和喻体之间起着连接介绍作用。 Simile 一词来源于拉丁语 similis, 意义相当于英语 介词 like （像），因此明喻中常用 like 做比喻词，此 外，用作比喻词的还有 as,as if, as though, as…as, (just) as…so, similar to, to bear a resemblance to etc.

81. 许多以 as 为比喻词组成的词组，如 as fresh as a rose, as brave as a lion, as cunning as a fox, as proud as a peacock, as busy as a bee, as timid as a mouse, as white as snow 等等。

82. Metaphor ：暗喻 Metaphor is a figure of speech in which one thing is descried in terms of another. …A comparison is usually implicit, whereas in simile it is explicit. ( A Dictionary of Literary Terms) 隐喻是用一种事物描写另一种事物的修辞格。 其比较关系是隐蔽的，而在明喻中则是明示的。

83. 隐喻不仅不用 “ 比喻词 ” ，直接把本体说成是喻 体，而且有时句中仅仅出现喻体，而没有出现 本体，因此含义较含蓄，需要读者根据上下文 去领会。 Money is the lens in a camera. 照相机的镜头能反映出一个人的不同面貌， 金钱则能检验出一个人的不同品质，故而两者 有共同之处。

84. Simile 和 metaphor 用法中的两个 问题： （ 1 ）本体和喻体的合理性 明喻说本体 “ 像 ” 喻体，隐喻说本体 “ 是 ” 喻 体，但要注意它们都是指不同类对象之间的 相似点。

85. （ 2 ）比喻的民族特色 比喻是一种常见的修辞方法，其心理基础是 对世间万物某些共同特点的联想。若以英语和 汉语相比，我们会发现许多惊人的相似之处。 如都以绵羊比喻温顺，以钢铁比喻坚强，用狐 狸比喻狡猾等等，还有不少成语和习语中的比 喻简直不谋而合，如 “ 火上加油 ”( add fuel to the flames ), “ 晴天霹雳 ”( a bolt from the blue ),“ 空中 阁楼 ”( castles in the air ), “ 滴水穿石 ”( constant dropping wears the stone ), “ 船到桥头自会 直 ”( you will cross the bridge when you get to it ）。

86. 但是由于各个民族自然环境、社会文化背景和 风俗习惯不同，比喻各有特色。 四面楚歌 meet one’s Waterloo carry coals to Newcastle （比喻多此一举 ） 洛阳纸贵（比喻著作风行一时） have a Christian concern for others 立地成佛

87. Metonymy: 借喻，转喻 Metonymy is a figure of speech which expresses a relation between the thing spoken of and the thing meant, in such a way that the mention of one suggests other. 借喻是指同类事物之间的比拟，不是同类的概念 (similarity) ，而是接近（ contiguity ）的概念，两个概 念关系密切，唇齿相依。如 White House 指美国政府， the Pentagon 即美国国防部。 借喻辞格以联想方式表达所说事物与所指事物之 间的关系，说及一物必然使人联想到另一物。

88. 借喻中也含有本体和喻体，两者之间是一种 借代关系。如： She was a girl who excited the emotions, but I was not the one to let my heart rule my head. 她十个让人动情的姑娘，而我则不是让 感情支配理智的人。

89. 借喻中的本体和喻体之间的关系可以通过 下列几种方式进行表达： 1 ．以典型的人体组织、器官或部位代人的抽象 行为或能力； He has an eye of beauty. office of brains 人才办公室 Mark Twain honed and experimented with his new writing muscles. (L9) 马克 · 吐温磨练他的新 的写作能力。 muscles 指 ability

90. 2 ．以作家名借代作品或观念； Have you read Shakespeare? I’ve never read Homer. 3. 以局部地名代整体名，或以产地代产品名 Would you care for a cup of Longjing? 龙井茶 Capital Hill 国会大厦 以建筑物代美国国会 A few weeks ago, U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates trooped up to Capital Hill to answer questions about the new Pentagon budget. Time, June 8, 2009

91. 4. 以资料或工具代替事物的名称 The pen is mightier than the sword. （文胜 于武。 pen 文才， sword 武功） His pen would prove mightier than his pickax. (L6) 他的笔将证明比他的镐头力量大。 (pen 写作能力， pickax 指马克 · 吐温年轻时淘过金， 但失败了，后来开始写作，成功了。 ) 5. 以容器、房舍借代内含之物 He is fond of the bottle. bottle 酒 What dishes would you like? （您要什么菜？）

92. 6. 以商标代产品 Our Sony worked well. (Sony: 索尼牌的电器 ) But after that the police will know they’re looking for a Jaguar. (Jaguar 是英国产的一种轿车商标 ) 7. 以特征指人或物 a. The blue eyes walked into the office b. She studied in Blue Grass for four years. (Blue Grass 指美国肯塔基州的 Lexington.) c. She said coldly: “I asked how much.” The piggy eyes blinked. “Ten thousand dollars.” (The piggy eyes 指 the man with piggy-like eyes.)

93. 常用的借喻： British Lion: England / the English government The bear: the former Soviet Union Ivan: the Russian people （俄罗斯人民） John Bull: England /the English people Uncle Sam: the U.S.A Downing Street: the British government / cabinet Hollywood: American film-making industry Fleet Street: the British press Foggy Bottom: U.S State Department （美国国务院） Madison Avenue: American advertising industry Wall Street: U.S financial circles The Kremlin: the government of the Soviet Union

94. brain /head: wisdom, intelligence, reason heart: feelings, emotions Quisling: traitor Romeo: lover Helen: beautiful woman Milton: poet the bar: the legal profession the bench: position (or office) of judge/ magistrate the press: news reporters, journalists, newspapers

95. Synecdoche 提喻（举偶法，提偶 法 ) A figure of speech in which a part is used for a whole, an individual for a class, a material for a thing, or the reverse of any of these. (Ex: bread for food, the army of a soldier, or copper for a penny) 提喻的修辞格是部分代替整体，整体代替部分，比较 通俗的词语代替难以理解的术语等。不直说某一事物 的名称，而是借事物本身做呈现的名称对应的现象来 表现。

96. 1. 用局部代替整体 Many hands make light work. ( 用 hand 表示干活的人 ) They came to live under the same roof. ( 用 roof 表示 整个房子 ) 2. 用整体代替局部 It (the volleyball match) was a close contest. In the end, China won. （用 China 代替中国队） 3. 用个体代替整个一类 She is another Madam Curie. (Curie Marie 生于波兰 的法国物理学家，化学家， 1903 诺贝尔物理学奖， 1911 诺贝尔化学奖 )

97. 4. 用具体代替抽象 There is a mixture of the tiger and the ape in the character of a Frenchman. （ tiger: 残暴； ape: 狡猾） 5. 用抽象代替具体 “Einstein is my admiration,” the little girl said. （ admiration 指所崇拜的人物） 6. 用材料代替事物 With thunders from her native oak, She quells the flood below. – by Thomas Campbell 战舰喷出雷鸣般的炮火，在狂浪中稳健地向前冲。 （ oak 代替了用橡木作材料建造的战舰）

98. *Metonymy 和 Synecdoche: 两种辞格十分相似，其共同点是不直接说出所 指对象的名称，而采取某种替代形式。不过， 换喻 / 借喻中的替代是一物体代另一物，两者之 间的关系密切；而提喻中的替代体现于一体中， 通过替代词想象出被替代词，需要凭借读者的 理解力。

99. Transferred epithet 移就，转类 several vacationers…from their spectacular vantage point… (spectacular modify the “storm” not “vantage point”) 转类就是通常修饰甲类名词的形容词转而修饰 乙类名词。（把修饰词转位置不在修饰应该它 修饰的名词，而去修饰一个根本不应该被它修 饰的词。）

100. （ 1 ）约定俗成，几乎形成固定搭配： He insisted that our assumptions were all wet. 他坚 持说我们的假定错了。 (wet 修饰语浸水有关的名词， 现在可用以修饰与概念有关的名词，如理念等。 ) His dry humor doesn’t seem intentional. 他的冷面幽 默似乎并非有意装出来的。（ dry 通常修饰语气候有 关的名词，如干旱，现在可用以修饰语态度有关的名 词，如反应等。） After several arid years, Europeans conceived the design of a very large jet air craft for carrying passengers on short flights, commonly referred to as the Airbus. 荒芜了几年之后，欧洲人构想出了一种 喷气式客机的设计：容量较大，适宜于短程飞行。这 种客机俗称空中客车。（ arid 原意是干旱，引伸为贫 瘠的，例句中为 after unproductive, 指研究无结果的， 属于形容词转类。）

101. 2 ）随机即兴 The new tendency has raised many a conservative eyebrow. 这种新趋势引起了许 多保守党人士的非难。 ( 眉毛本身没有倾向， 移就的是保守党派人士的倾向与感情。 ) Of the thousands of people who stand under Michelangelo’s heroic ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, very few are aware that they are looking at perhaps the greatest watercolor painting in the world. 成千上万的访问者来到 西斯廷教堂，屋顶上画有米开朗基罗的雄伟壁 画；但鲜有参观者意识到她们仰望着的也许是 世界上最伟大的水彩画。

102. （ Michelangelo was Italian sculptor, painter, architect and poet. He was a towering figure of the Renaissance.
