It is necessary to continue further study on metaphor for a better translation of news. On the basis of former studies, this paper puts analysis on the metaphor and strategies of translation and on the basis of functional equivalence theory, this paper explains several examples. As a result, by summarizing the strategies of metaphor in English news, the author expects to help to solve relevant problems in translation.
