40、上,如语音、拼写、词汇、语法、诗式等。诗在语音上的变异主要表现在单词的某些音节的省略、重音甚至整个发音的改变。25(3)词句的重复与修辞格的广泛运用诗歌中常重复一些词句或诗行,用以抒发真挚深沉的情感,或是用以渲染某种气氛(如回环往复的缠绵),或是用以增强诗的歌唱性。诗歌中又大量运用修辞格,尤是是各种各样的明喻、暗喻、比拟用得最多。26(4)丰富的意象与象征所谓意象,是指那些可以引起人的感官反应的具体形象和画面,分为视觉、听觉、嗅觉、触觉、味觉、动觉、通联等。这些意象不仅唤起人们的某种体验,更常常具有鲜明或隐晦的象征意义,是许多优秀诗篇所具有的共性。27You say that you love
41、 rain,but you open your umbrella when it rains.You say that you love the sun,but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines.You say that you love the wind,but you close your windows when wind blows.This is why I am afraid,because you say that you love me too.”28普通版 你说你喜欢雨,但是下雨的时候你却撑开了伞;你说你喜欢阳光,但当阳光播
42、撒的时候,你却躲在阴凉之地;你说你喜欢风,但清风扑面的时候,你却关上了窗户。我害怕你对我也是如此之爱。29女汉子版 你有本事爱雨天,你有本事别打伞啊;你有本事爱阳光,你有本事别乘凉啊;你有本事爱吹风,你有本事别关窗啊;你有本事说爱我,你有本事捡肥皂啊!30文艺版 你说烟雨微芒,兰亭远望;后来轻揽婆娑,深遮霓裳。你说春光烂漫,绿袖红香;后来内掩西楼,静立卿旁。你说软风轻拂,醉卧思量;后来紧掩门窗,漫帐成殇。你说情丝柔肠,如何相忘;我却眼波微转,兀自成霜。31诗经版 子言慕雨,启伞避之。子言好阳,寻荫拒之。子言喜风,阖户离之。子言偕老,吾所畏之。32离骚版 君乐雨兮启伞枝,君乐昼兮林蔽日,君乐风兮栏帐起,君乐吾兮吾心噬。33五言诗版 恋雨偏打伞,爱阳却遮凉。风来掩窗扉,叶公惊龙王。片言只语短,相思缱倦长。郎君说爱我,不敢细思量。34七言绝句版 恋雨却怕绣衣湿,喜日偏向树下倚。欲风总把绮窗关,叫奴如何心付伊。35七律压轴版 江南三月雨微茫,罗伞叠烟湿幽香。夏日微醺正可人,却傍佳木趁荫凉。霜风清和更初霁,轻蹙蛾眉锁朱窗。怜卿一片相思意,犹恐流年拆鸳鸯。36
