He uses several kinds of hyperbole(numeric hyperbole, contrasted hyperbole, analogical hyperbole, action hyperbole) to exaggerate his affection. He interprets the used allusion through his strong subjective affection and the promotes allusions with quoting several allusions.Secondly, Li Bai's poems are fluent and smooth in the field of composition rhetoric. The inner arrangement of orders are full of rhethmed change and the vein of the dissertation have fluctuations. The beginnings of his poems usually come to the point and the ends of them keep charms through open structure.Thirdly, the fundamental style of Li Bai's poems is naive and natural in the rhetorical style. When the fundamental style is faced to the concrete circumstances, it will show several different things: megnificent, generous, excited, bright, or amiable.
