引用 Quote
A metaphor compares two things that are unrelated, but which are similar in some way. For example, “That businessman is a real fox.”
Personification is when a thing, idea, or animal is given human attributes. For example, “The sky weeps.”
A simile compares two things by using words such as “like” or “as”. For example, “John is as cunning as a fox.”
A rhetorical question is a question that isn’t meant to elicit an answer, but is asked to make a point. For example, “How could I be so stupid ”
Repetition is the use of the same word or phrase in a poem, speech, etc. It can be used for different purposes, such as to heighten tension or to give emphasis. One example of this can be seen in Julius Caesar’s famous saying “I came, I saw, I conquered.”
To quote is to repeat a short passage, word, phrase, or sentence that came from somewhere or someone else. Quotes can be used to describe or to add more examples. Sometimes a quote can even motivate people. For example, “… as Longfellow says, ‘Music is the universal language of mankind.’”

The power of the music
Have you ever heard a piece of music and remembered an important time in your life Perhaps when something important happened, or when you felt really happy or sad. I feel this way about a piece of classical music by Eric Satie called“Gymnopedie No.1”. It reminds me of my grandmother. It is like an old friend comforting me when I hear it.
