Whether in literature or in daily life people have always sought out the use of vivid,clear,precise language to express their ,it is necessary to study and research the figure of speech and its translation in order to use languages,read and appreciate literary works as well as to improve our culture refreshment.

(Dicken,59) Ham Peggotty is likened to dragon,which means that he worked at his catechism as hard as a dragon safeguards his may well be puzzled if we do not know about the metaphor. The importance of rhetoric lies not only in prehending the source text,also in reproducing ideal translation,especially literary translation,not only conveys the content of the source text,but reproduces aesthetic or artist charm of the source purpose of rhetoric is to make the translation more effective and more adequate. (3) It haunted men when I got seemed to have left the Doctor39。s‘白發(fā)的頭’ ,‘ reverence’，‘ miseration ’ and‘ resentment ’respectively as ‘ 尊敬之心’，‘憐憫之情’ and‘憎恨之感’ .Obviously,Zhang39。s faithfulness,expressiveness and beautifulness。s the most different task to convert rhetoric in interlingual the fact that various phoic system has their own specific rhetoric way,it does not necessarily have corresponding rhetorical effect even if it has the corresponding alliteration in English and pairs of sound in Chinese as an former is a very ancient figure of speech,or even more ancient than is widely used in the latter does not have any particular rhetorical effect or it also never be regarded as a figure of speech in the other hand,because Chinese characters are monosyllabic and overlapping sound character that is also known as the stack is a very ancient Chinese rhetorical has a long history,“ China is a special form of the phrase” seems not to be ,Lin Yutang actually found that the sound and alliteration can be converted each below is his translation of Li Qingzhao39。s sound in English is a citing the above examples,Wang Li further pointed out that onomatopoeias are not the same in all parts of China,such as dogs39。d his boiling bloody breast. Shakespeare put together with a series of blasting consonants[bl],[br]and blasting consonants(b)to simulate a crash of metal unsheathed their swords,but also with a slight friction using the semivowel [w],as well as pronunciation,such as pantlike friction voiceless consonant(h)to simulate the assassination scenes when the sound of wind and cases seem not to be translated,but they are translated by Zhu Shenghao successfully. Soon,Pyramus,that tall,beautiful boy,also his faithful jacket lying on the ground dead,he pulled out a “ chi leng leng” to soon as the bloody damn sword,the alignment of the chest inside his burning hot exclusion of Lara to stab into it. In addition to translation Chinese onomatopoeia“赤愣愣” ,“火辣辣” but also skillfully used the Chinese languagespecific painted the word “ bloody” ,“ burning hot” and turn the original inside a bative atmosphere of living in contrast Rhetoric Research tells us that the word in Chinese in painted with the English sound
