总结如下：
一、明喻是以两种具有相同特征的事物和现象进行对比，表明本体和喻体之间的相似关系，两者都在对比中出现。常用比喻词like，as，as if，as though等。
二、隐喻这种比喻不通过比喻词进行，而是直接将用事物当作乙事物来描写，甲乙两事物之间的联系和相似之处是暗含的。
三、提喻又称举隅法，主要特点是局部代表全体，或以全体喻指部分，或以抽象代具体，或以具体代抽象。
相关要点：
它主要指那些没有相对固定格式的修辞性写作技巧，它与语法、语言结构和词汇的关系密切，只是为了修辞和立意新颖的缘故，对之做了一些调整。
举一种情况进行说明：为了增加文采，强化文章的表现力，常常避免重复使用同一个词汇，而另选他词。这种无固定格式可循的消极修辞手段被称为Elegant Variation（求雅换词）。

要想取得较好的课堂教学效果，首先应该要求学生做好课堂前的准备活动：阅读全文，阅读课文导读，不要忘记阅读课文注释。一般来说，做到阅读课文并不难的，多数学生可以做到。只有个别学生连课文都懒得读就来上课，等着老师一口一口地喂他吃饭。不客气地说这样的学生别指望从这门课有多少收获。读一遍课文仅仅是最基本的要求，但还不够。《高级英语》的课文大都有相当的难度，第一遍读下来很可能有摸不着头脑的感觉。这时，About the text就有用了。和旧版比，第三版增加了About the text, 导读，介绍文章的创作背景、总体格局、主题、写作手法等，引导学生注意此文的特别之处。目的是帮助学生预习课文，免得他们感到无从下手，从而在课堂上处于一种消极被动的状态。我前面说，不要忘记读注释。注释提供课文中提到的历史事件、历史人物、地里、文化、宗教等各方面的背景知识。有的学生可能认为，课文已经很长了，再让我读注释，不是太烦了吗？我想告诉你，也许表面上是增加了阅读量，但注释帮助你扫除障碍，是事半功倍之举。我们历来认为，语言和思想内涵是结合的，学好一篇文章不能只限于研究语法、词汇、句子结构，同时一定要注意内容，在吸收语言的同时思考问题，扩大知识面。注释的功能是帮助学生了解与课文理解相关的文化信息。总之，这三个步骤是预习时必须做到的，也是我强烈推荐的。因为课前的充分准备是学生自主学习的重要部分，也是学生课堂参与的必要条件。如果这三步认真完成了，那么学生应该已经对课文有了初步的理解，已经掌握了一些关键词汇，一些难点自己已经攻破了，他们将带着还没有解决的问题来上课。他们上课的心态不是被动地听老师讲解，他们不仅带着耳朵，而且带着脑子，期望在老师的指导下解决更难的问题，并使得师生有时间和精力去深入探讨课文的文化内涵与人文精神。总之，预习的重要性如何强调都是不过分的，因为预习培养学生独立自主学习的能力，也是调动学生学习积极性、激发学生思维和鼓励学生参加课堂参与的先决条件。预习的三个步骤一个也不能少。上课带着问题有备而来，让每个学生做个勤奋主动的学生而不是懒惰被动的学生。为了帮助学生养成充分预习的好习惯，教师可以设计一些办法来检查学生的预习情况。比如，教师可要求学生上课前在一张纸上写下如下的内容: 文章题目，作者姓名，发表年代；用3-4句话总结文章的大意；就文章的写作或内容提出2-3个问题。这样可以做到一石二鸟：一是检查学生的预习；二是使得教学甩掉盲目性，更有针对性。
