The expression “political and financial muscle” underlined in Paragraph 2 is an example of.
A

simile

B

metaphor

C

metonymy

D

personification


参考答案

参考解析
解析:
词义题。metonymy(换喻或转喻)是一种一个词或词组被另一个与之有紧密联系的词或词组替换的修辞手法,本体与喻词均不出现,直接用喻体来代替本体。simile明喻,直喻。metaphor隐喻,暗喻。personification拟人(法);人格化。因此“political and financial muscle”应是换喻,实际上指的是“政治和经济力量”。故选C。
