14.1比较与对比法 有时为了说明某一事物，需要与其他事物联系起来才能阐述清楚，这就是对比或比较(comparison or contrast)。比较方法和对比方法基本一致，不同的是比较强调两事物如何相同，对比强调两事物如何不同。 示范段落14-1 Life in the city is quite different from life in the suburbs.People living in the city are constantly exposed to the hustle and bustle of urban life.But life in the suburbs is generally quiet and casual and generally more low-key than in the city.If city dwellers want to see trees and grass，they must go to one of the public parks.On the other hand，the streets of many suburban communities are lined with trees and shrubs，and each house has its own grassy yard.A person living in the city is close to many sources of entertainment，but people living in suburan areas must go into the city for entertainment. 示范段落14-2 The llama is a member of the camel family.Like the camel，the llama can live for weeks without a drink of water.Both get enough moisture from the grass，shrubs，and other plants they eat.But unlike the camel，the llama has no hump on its back. 14.2示范段落分析 示范段落14-1所用的支配方法是对比。作者对比城市生活与城郊生活。而示范段落14-2同时运用了比较和对比方法，既描绘了无峰驼和骆驼的共同点，也描绘了不同点。 |
