奥巴马就职演说中的排比句赏析

奥巴马就职演说中的排比句赏析今天，我要向大家谈论奥巴马就职演说中的排比句。

2009年，奥巴马当选美国第44任总统，他在就职典礼上发表了重要的就职演说。

演讲充满了排比句，比如“我们可以承认错误，不畏惧改变”、“我们可以忘记政治上的分歧，信任而行动”、“我们可以保持信念，即使是在最艰难的时刻”。

排比句针对的是一个主题，有哪一种创意功能，即使读者有一定程度的熟悉，也能清楚地理解其内涵，给人以排拟、对照、对比、比较的演绎，让听众或读者以健康的审美视角，清晰地认知演说或文章的主旨，有效地达到字里行间的精彩作用。

首先，奥巴马用排比句表达出自己的态度和观点，展示出他的信念：不畏惧改变、忘记政治上的分歧、保持信念，即使是在最艰难的时刻。

但他的排比句同时也带有勇气和希望。

这种勇气和希望，使他的态度和观点变得真诚、诚恳。

其次，通过排比句，奥巴马给人以深刻的意义。

他表达出总统应该做什么：承认错误、信任而行动、不断坚持信念，这无疑是总统最重要的职责。

这些排比句的出现，代表着总统不仅是头领，而且也是一个带头者，负责激励和带领国家共同探索未来。

最后，通过排比句，可以展现出奥巴马强劲的语言力量，也可以让他的思想更加深刻。

排比句重复着总统同一主题，但却又用不同的结构、表达形式来重复，使每一句都有独到之处，使演讲变得更加动人、更加有力，作品也更加美妙。

由此可见，奥巴马就职演说中的排比句给大家带来了重要的启示：代表着总统的强劲语言力量，也代表着政治的诚恳和信念，他的排比句让人们在最艰难的时刻无比振奋，也让他的言论铭记在心中。

这就是奥巴马的就职演说中的排比句。

总之，上述例子可以看出，排比句在奥巴马就职演说中发挥了作用，不仅可以让演说者态度和观点变得真诚、诚恳，表达出总统应该做什么，还可以展现出强劲的语言力量。

排比句蕴含着丰富的内涵，让大家从不同的角度思考，是非常有效的技巧。

通过本文，我们可以得出结论，排比句在奥巴马就职演说中发挥了积极的作用。

奥巴马获胜演讲词的巧妙之处

摘要：美国总统演讲向来都是很好的英语学习材料。

本文从内容布局、过渡衔接、排比利用、第一人称和祈使语以及口号的提出等五个方面分析学习奥巴马演讲词的“妙处“所在。

关键词：奥巴马获胜演讲词内容布局过渡衔接排比利用第一人称和祈使语口号的提出美国总统演讲向来都是我们很好的英语学习材料。

奥巴马于11月4日在其家乡芝加哥做了长达一万多字的获胜演讲，被誉为是最成功的总统演讲之一。

下面我们就从以下几个方面来谈谈其成功的“巧妙”之处：一、巧妙的篇幅布局和内容安排这篇演讲可以分为五个部分：（一）开门见山，创造气氛，表明这一时刻意义非凡。

（二）回顾选举历程，感谢所有为此付出努力的人们。

（三）表达自己寻求变革的决心，呼吁所有美国人民共同努力，一起面对困难。

（四）以106岁老人为例，讲述美国的百年荣辱，鼓励美国人民坚信自己可以做得到。

（五）引导民众去展望下一个百年后美国应有的改变，再次激励人们团结起来，让“美国梦”重放光芒。

最后是结语部分。

总统就职演说主要目的在于向听众宣传本届政府的施政纲领，激起听众的热情，说服听众接受其政治主张并采取相应的行动。

所以在整个内容的安排上，始终强调“美国应该是什么样子，希望美国人民应该怎么做”，并且层层推进，令人鼓舞。

二、巧妙的过渡和衔接在演讲中除了必须以恰当的模式谋篇布局之外，各段落和要点之间必须有自然的衔接。

英语的语篇注重形合手段的使用，在演讲中尤其要选择使用恰当的、有效的衔接手段。

以上五个部分之间的过渡和衔接非常自然流畅，恰到好处。

例如：*I know you didn’t do this just to win an election and I know you didn’t do it for me.You did it because you unders tand the enormity of the task that lies ahead.*America，we have come so far.We have seen so muc h.But there is so much more to do.So to night，let us ask ourselves——if our children should live to see the next century；if my daughters should be so lucky to l ive as long as Ann Nixon Cooper，what change will they see？What progress will we have made？三、排比句的巧妙利用排比句的利用可以说是此篇演讲的一大亮点。

• (3) Rhythmic effect • (Obama often seeks to exploit the rhythm of language by the choice and arrangement of words. Obama’s arrangement of stressed and unstressed syllables gives the speech an almost musical quality. )
• e.g. democracy, sacrifice, enormity, mortgage, humanity, determination, challenge
• This is our chance to answer that call. This is our moment. • This is our time - to put our people back to work and open doors of opportunity for our kids; to restore prosperity and promote the cause of peace; to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth - that out of many, we are one; that while we breathe, we hope, and where we are met with cynicism, and doubt, and those who tell us that we can't, we will respond with that timeless creed that sums up the spirit of a people: • Yes, we can.

奥巴马演讲特色

句式

You’ll hear the determination in the voice of a young field organizer who’s working his way through college and wants to make sure every child has that same opportunity. You’ll hear the pride in the voice of a volunteer who’s going door to door because her brother was finally hired when the local auto plant added another shift. You’ll hear the deep patriotism in the voice of a military spouse who’s working the phones late at night to make sure that no one who fights for this country ever has to fight for a job or a roof over their head when they come home. 你将从一位年轻的活动现场组织者的声音里听到他的决心，他边在大学里学习边从事助选工作，他希望确保每个孩子都能拥有同样的机会。你将从一位志愿者的声音里听到她的骄傲，她挨门动员选民是因为她哥哥终因当地一家汽车制造厂增加了一个班次而有了工作。你将从一对军人夫妇的声音里听到深深的爱国情怀。他们深夜时还在接听选举电话，以确保那些曾经为这个国家作战的人不会返回家园时还要为得到一份工作或栖身之所而苦苦争斗。

一个成功的政治演讲能够展现自我魅力，进一步提升演讲者在民众心中的地位。

本文将从修辞和词汇角度对奥巴马竞选连任演讲进行分析。

为何奥巴马的演讲如此精彩，受到美国民众乃至全世界的青睐？究其原因，除了他本人的智慧，较强思维逻辑和非凡的政治才华外，更不开演讲技术的运用。

二、修辞手段演讲作为是一门语言艺术，是离不开修辞的。

演讲内容除了简要表明思想，清楚传达信息外，还应适当对文字进行润饰，使它形象生动，具有感染力和号召力。

奥巴马演讲常用修辞手段，将语言的准确性同生动性和形象性紧密结合起来。

使演讲语言充满生机与活力，有煽动性。

奥巴马的连任演讲中主要使用了三种修辞手段：排比、重复、层进。

2.1排比（parallelism）是指将结构相同或相似、语气一致、意思相关联的句子或成分排列在一起。

例如：Whether you voted for the very first time or waiting in line for a very long time… Whether you pounded the pavement or picked up the phone. Whether you held an Obama sign or a Romney sign，you mad your voice heard.这段话运用了排比，使句子结构工整，语意紧凑，增强的语言了展现力和表达力。

美国总统奥巴马演讲词修辞格分析_英文_

美国总统奥巴马演讲词修辞格分析_英文_科技信息SCIENCE &TECHNOLOGY INFORMATION 2011年第11期科Analysis on Rhetoric in President BarackObama ’s Speech美国总统奥巴马演讲词修辞格分析王钰潼（黑龙江八一农垦大学黑龙江大庆163319）【Abstract 】Under the great background of globalization today,communications between China and America are more frequent,it becomes significant for us to gain a deeper understanding of American presidents'speech.Obama serves as an example for us to study in this aspect.Until now,most people have been studying his speech mainly through either Chinese translations of his speeches or interpretations by the media,conducted through perspectives which are by no means rhetorically informed.Considering the fact that what we are dealing with is political speech,it is high time that the rhetorical perspective be introduced into the process of interpreting Obama's political communication in its original context.Such a perspective will help us obtain a better approach of interpreting his speech.This thesis has widely selected the typical political speeches of president Obama in his Election Campaign process,and analyzed three main rhetorical methods in political speech:simile,metaphor and metonymy.Figure of speech is an expression that departs from the accepted literal sense or from the normal order of words,or in which an emphasis is produced by patterns of sound.It is an especially important resource of poetry;it is also constantlypresent in all other kinds of speech and writing.The figure of speech is commonly used in political speech.In this part of the thesis the author will analyze three main types of figures in Obama ’s speech:Simile,metonymy and Metaphor.【Key words 】Obama ；S peech ；R hetorical analysisA simile is a figure of speech that indirectly compares two differentthings by employing the words “like ”,“as ”,or “than ”.Even thoughsimiles and metaphors are both forms of comparison,similes indirectlycompare the two ideas and allow them to remain distinct in spite of theirsi milarities.The word “simile ”came from Latin word “similis ”,it means“like ”or “as if ”,the use of this figure in English is almost the same as itis used in Chinese.Simile is frequently used in Obama ’s speech:(1)...America that shone as a beacon of freedom and opportunity toso many who had come before.(2)…Cutting the deficit by gutting our investments in innovationand education are like lightening an overloaded airplane by removing itsengine.It may feel like you ’re flying high at first,but it won ’t take longbefore you ’ll feel the impact.By taking two things that don't have much in common andputtingthem together,the simile forces us to imagine the situation in more vividand unconventional ways.The exaggeration inherent in most similes alsoadds a certain force to the comparison,and makes us feel the power ofthe thing or characteristic being compared.In the speech metaphor is often used by the politicians to make theirspeeches more convincing,president Obama is of course not anexception.Single conceptual metaphor can also account for the semanticcoherence of a whole text and this is evident from an analysis of Obama'sinaugural address.(3)...the rock of our family and the love of my life,our nation's nextfirst lady,Michelle Obama.(4)The audacity of hop,In the end,that is God's greatest gift to us,the bedrock of this nation.From the above examples we can find that metaphor can makeabstract things become specific.From the analysis it is clear that thesource domains are closely related to our daily life and experience whichmake these metaphors understandable andpersuasive.Political metaphorshave such functions as filtering,persuasion,motivation,simplification andbridge.Metaphors are deeply rooted in people's experience and the American culture.Therefore,it is not difficult to appeal to the emotions of the Americans so as to have a better understanding of the policies of the politicians.Metonymy may also be instructively contrasted with metaphor.Both figures involve the substitution of one term for another.In metaphor,this substitution is based on some specific similarity,whereas,in metonymy,the substitution is based on some understood association.The special structure of this figure makes it possible for speakers to make his speech simple and vivid.There are some examples below.(5)...it's that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers.(6)Its the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen …In these two exampl e Obama use special subject to represent certain group of people or organization.In example (5),Wall Street symbolized great financial group while Main Street represent small business owner.In example (6),“lines that stretched around schools and churches ”symbolized the polling station where people can vote.This kind of figure makes the speech easier to understand and transfer more information with fewer words.As we can see metonymy,traditionally seen as a figure of speech,actually is a kind of cognitive mechanism by which people connect one thing in the world to another and this ability of association helps people draw inferences easily from implicit conversations.Metonymy as well as the former two figures is frequently used to achieve an effect of polishing the speech.From the above analysis we can see using rhetoric devicesproperly can not only persuade and encourage the audience effectively and increase the appeal of public speech,but also gain great vehemence of the speech and finally make the speech has a sense of history.［责任编辑：常鹏飞］○外语论坛○250。

奥巴马演讲分析

8. 这一段中可以体现了亚里士多德理论中的情感诉求，“It was all for you”拉近了矿工们与听众的距离，使听众产生共鸣，更加敬畏矿工们所付出的一切。

最后一句“in pursuit of the American dream.”也是一种情感的升华，体现了矿工们为实现美国梦贡献出了自己的一份力量。

“It was all for you”, it lessens the distance between the speaker and the audience , resonates with the audience. In addition, it shows that the greatness of the miners. (pathos)“in pursuit of the American dream.”intensifies the emotion, it represents that miners did a great job of pursuing the American dream. (pathos)9. 本段体现了亚里士多德理论中的理性诉求和情感诉求。

英语六级写作中排比句用法

六级写作当中，适当使用（其实一篇文章有那么一句，足矣，考试当中字数有限制）排比句，也就是我们常常说的平行结构parallelism。

可以使文章怎色不少，美国总统奥巴马一向以演讲和讲稿的eloquence著称。

以下，列举奥巴马讲稿中的parallelism予以彰示。

对小奥当选后的获胜讲演，更多人关注的是讲演内容，而我对其文章结构和语言的运用更感兴趣，特别是其中的排比句。

排比结构(parallelism)是英语演讲中最常使用的一种重要修辞手段,它以语法结构对称(包括相同或相似的词、短语或分词)来突出意义的常见修辞手法。

运用排比结构能突出演讲者的雄辩口才和强烈情感,使得演讲文稿极具说服力、震撼力和欣赏性。

小奥显然是这方面的高手。

1.用在从句开头(这是讲演的第一段):If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible,who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy,tonight is your answer.（注意其中用了三个不一样的动词）2.用在段首:It's the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen;by people who waited three hours and four hours,many for the first time in their lives,because they believed that this time must be different;that their voices could be that difference.It's the answer spoken by young and old,rich and poor,Democrat and Republican, black,white,Hispanic,Asian,Native American,gay,straight,disabled and not disabled-Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals,or a collection of Red States and Blue States:we are, and always will be,the United States of America.It's the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful,and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.3.用在谓语中:Even as we stand here tonight,we know there are brave Americans waking up in the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan to risk their lives for us.There are mothers and fathers who will lie awake after their children fall asleep and wonder how they'll make the mortgage,or pay their doctor's bills,or save enough for college. There is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created;new schools to build and threats to meet and alliances to repair.4.用在介词短语中:And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores,from parliaments and palaces to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of our world -our stories are singular,but our destiny is shared,and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand.To those who would tear this world down-we will defeat you. To those who seek peace and security-we support you.And to all those who have wondered if America's beacon still burns as bright-tonight we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from our the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth,but from the enduring power of our ideals:democracy,liberty, opportunity,and unyielding hope.5.用在段末:And tonight,I think about all that she's seen throughout her century in America -the heartache and the hope;the struggle and the progress;the times we were told that we can't,and the people who pressed on with that American creed:Yes we can.At a time when women's voices were silenced and their hopes dismissed,she lived to see them stand up and speak out and reach for the ballot.Yes we can.When there was despair in the dust bowl and depression across the land,she saw a nation conquer fear itself with a New Deal,new jobs and a new sense of common purpose. Yes we can.When the bombs fell on our harbor and tyranny threatened the world,she was there to witness a generation rise to greatness and a democracy was saved.Yes we can.She was there for the buses in Montgomery,the hoses in Birmingham,a bridge in Selma, and a preacher from Atlanta who told a people that'We Shall Overcome.'Yes we can.A man touched down on the moon,a wall came down in Berlin,a world was connected by our own science and imagination.And this year,in this election,she touched her finger to a screen,and cast her vote,because after106years in America,through the best of times and the darkest of hours,she knows how America can change.Yes we can.小奥的讲演的最后，用一系列的Yes we can煽动台下听众的热情，众人一起高喊：Yes we can!Yes we can!场面相当热烈。
