How to distinguish metaphorical argument and analogical argument is introduced as follows:

1. The names of the subjects in the argument are different

(1) The two types of metaphorical argument are: ontology and metaphor.

(2) The two elements of analogy argument are: ontology and object (kind).

2. Different ways of argumentation

(1) Metaphorical argumentation uses concrete images to compare abstract arguments and principles. The emphasis is on "metaphor" to make the reasoning more vivid and understandable. For example, "To serve the Qin Dynasty with the land is like holding out the firewood to put out the fire. If the firewood is not used up, the fire will never be extinguished." "The unwiseness will eventually lead to the destruction of the country.

(2) Argument by analogy is a comparison of similar things. Comparing the similarities between the subject and the object, if there is a certain attribute of the object, it can be deduced that the out-of-body body should also have this attribute. There is a process of comparative inference.

For example, in "Zou Ji satirizes the King of Qi and accepts advice", the King of Qi and Zou Ji have similarities and are both superiors, so Zou Ji has the experience of being deceived: his wife is a private minister, his concubine is afraid of his ministers, and his guests have requests. They all thought that Zou Ji was more beautiful than Xu Gong. It can be inferred that the King of Qi may have been deceived. The ladies in the palace were all selfish of the King. "Also" conclusion.

Commonly used argumentation methods:

1. Logical argumentation mainly uses some famous Chinese and foreign aphorisms about the topic being argued, as well as classic insights from some classic works, so as to Prove the corresponding argument. The function of rational argumentation is mainly to demonstrate relevant arguments through reasonable methods, so as to make the argument more general and in-depth.

2. Comparative argumentation is mainly based on the opposite side of the thing to be demonstrated or the comparison of attributes that are different from the thing. Comparative argumentation is a novel thinking argumentation method, and the scope of application is very wide. It is broad and there are many things that can be demonstrated. For some topics with very different arguments, comparative arguments can be used to demonstrate.

3. Metaphorical argument. This argumentation method mainly uses metaphors to demonstrate the topic. The metaphorical theory is usually used to demonstrate the topic. In metaphorical argument, the metaphorical person and the metaphorical person are two different things. They are different types of things, but they have the same general principle, so there is a certain inference relationship between them.

4. Demonstration with examples mainly demonstrates by listing some materials related to the argument topic. These materials must be sufficient, have solid viewpoints, and be proved by representative examples. The purpose of argumentation with examples is to demonstrate your arguments more convincingly based on the examples you give.
