In this thesis, metaphor is only one type of figures of speech that is focused on. Besides, many other interseting and useful figures of speech as metonymy, synecdoche, simili, enallage, etc are also indispenable parts of language. It is suggested that these phenomena should be explored and studied thoroughly with the view to discovering their potential values in both language and cultural values. In addition, in my paper, because of the time limited, some typical tales can be carried out to investigate their roles in conveying the meanings and educational values.
