摘　　要：本文回顾了欧·亨利的个人经历及其代表作《警察与赞美诗》的创作背景,着力剖析了小说中作者对比手法的应用,如小说场景的对比、语言形式的对比等,生动呈现了作者独特的艺术构思及写作手法。欧·亨利对于对比手法的娴熟应用一方面制造了黑色幽默的效果,另一方面制造了反讽效果,从而揭露了其想要表达的深刻主题,即战后美国下层社会小人物的悲惨命运及资本主义社会法律制度和社会制度的扭曲。This paper reviews life experience of O＇Henry and the background of ＂ The Cop and the Anthem＂.Based on the analysis of the contrasts in the story such as the settings in which the story took place; the language styles and etc. O＇Henry＇s pecular writing style is presented： black humor and irony.
