41、ss is _ Abased on our needs Bunconditional Cout of reach DlimitedDA metaphor is a poetic device that deals with comparison. It compares similar qualities of two dissimilar objects. With a simple metaphor, one object becomes the other: Love is a rose. Although this does not sound like a particularly

42、rich image, a metaphor can communicate so much about a particular image that poets use them more than any other type of figurative language. The reason for this is that poets compose their poetry to express what they are experiencing emotionally at that moment. Consequently, what the poet imagines l

43、ove to be may or may not be our understanding of love. Therefore, the poets job is to enable us to experience it, to feel it the same way as the poet does. Lets analyze this remarkably simple metaphor concerning love and the rose to see what it offers. Because the poet uses a comparison with a rose,

44、 first we must examine the characteristics of that flower. A rose is impressive in its beauty, its petals（花瓣）are nicely soft, and its smell is pleasing. Its possible to say that a rose is actually a feast to the senses of sight, touch, and smell. The roses appearance seems to border on perfection, e

45、ach petal seemingly equal in form. Isnt this the way ones love should be？A loved one should be a delight to ones senses and seem perfect. However, there is another dimension added to the comparison by using a rose. Roses have thorns. The poet wants to convey the idea that roses can be tricky. So can

46、 love, the metaphor tells us. When one reaches out with absolute trust to touch the object of his or her affection, ouch, a thorn can cause great harm! “Be careful,” the metaphor warns, “Love is a feast to the senses, but it can overwhelm us, and it can also hurt us and cause acute suffering.” This

47、is the poets understanding of lovean admonition (劝诫). What is the point？Just this: It took almost 14 sentences to clarify what a simple metaphor communicates in only four words! That is the artistry and the joy of the simple metaphor. 67. According to the passage, a metaphor is a _. A. description o

48、f two similar objects in a poetic way B. literary device specially employed in poetry writing C. contrast between two different things to create a vivid image D. comparison between two different objects with similar features 68. As is meant by the author, thorns of a rose _. A. add a new element to

49、the image of love B. protect the rose from harm C. symbolize reduced love D. cause acute suffering 69. It can be inferred from the passage that a metaphor is _. A. difficult to understand B. rich in meaning C. simple to use D. perfect in form70. The main idea of this passage is that _. A. love is a

50、rose in metaphor B. a rose is a good image in poetry C. a metaphor is a great poetic device D. a poet should be careful to use a metaphor E根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Some students wish that they could always see the smiles on their teachers faces. 71_ why do teachers seldom smile, espe
