摘要

隐喻可以作为科学传播的有效工具。本文研究了月球车玉兔微博的帖子和评论，将月球车隐喻为拟人化的兔子。本研究探讨了这一隐喻的动机和效果。概念动机可以在漫游者和拟人化兔子之间的相似性中找到。交际动机在于其促进科学的有效性的增强。这个比喻已经被微博用户欣然接受，他们对它的隐喻解释表现出情感反应，获得了天文知识，并决心从事科学事业。

Metaphor in Science Communication: With Special Reference to Jade Rabbit of the Moon Rover

The metaphor can serve as an effective tool in science communication. This article studies the posts and comments of the Weibo account of Jade Rabbit of the Moon Rover, which construes the rover metaphorically as an anthropomorphized rabbit. This study explores the motivation and effect of this metaphor. Conceptual motivation can be found in the similarities between the rover and the anthropomorphized rabbit. Communicative motivation lies in its enhanced effectiveness in promoting science. The metaphor has been readily accepted by Weibo users who have displayed emotional reactions to its metaphorical construal, acquired astronomical knowledge, and determined to embark on scientific careers.
