参考解析
解析：本题考查修辞学。metaphor（隐喻／暗喻）是在两个不同事物之间进行比较，但它不直接点明两个事物之间的相似性，而是进行隐藏的比较，例如：All the world is a stage.整个世界是一台戏(用stage喻指all the world)。metonymy（转喻）指直接用比喻事物代替本体事物，例如：The buses inAmerica are on strike now.美国的公共汽车司机正在罢工（这里buses喻指司机drivers）。synecdoche（提喻）指用一般代替特殊或以特殊代替一般，部分代替整体或整体代替部分，或用原材料代表用该材料制造的东西。比如以hands代替persons，以Solomon代替a wise man，以the smiling year代替the spring。transferred epithet（移就）指用本应该描述甲事物性质状态的词语来形容乙事物，而乙事物却根本不具备这种性质或功能。例如题干中的“The plowman homewardplods hisweary way.”句中形容词“weary”本来应该修饰的是“the plowman”，作者在这里用来修饰“way”，使这句话勾勒出一幅筋疲力尽的农夫步履蹒跚地走向家园的画面。故本题选D。
