In the book, the old man prepared his fishing properly and preciously than any other fishermen so that “Then when luck comes you are ready” as the old man thought to himself. In reality, some of us keep complaining that they are born in wrong time or good luck never knocks their doors. In fact, good luck sometimes just comes when they are not ready. Taking Newton for example, if he had not acquired a lot, millions of apples could never make him discovery the gravity. So if we just keep studying as much as we can, good luck will finally find us and a bright future is ahead of us. The old man never gives up hope. When all of people think he is doomed, he still strongly believes that he will get a big fish. And he does. So never giving up hope is very important to us. This reminded me of the sentence in Churchill’s speech “Never give up, never, never, never…”。 “But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated” has always been inspiring me when I counter with some setbacks in my life. Setbacks are inevitable in pursuit of our goals, but we should never be frustrated and should be “graceful under heavy pressure” like the old man. It is his relentless pursuit that contributes to the victory.
He is a strong man who is not afraid of difficulties and failure. He has been hit repeatedly, but he has never given up the idea of looking for hope. Despite repeated failures, he never lost heart and was disappointed. Although he nearly died, he ignited the anger of victory again in his fearlessness. He is the tough guy in Hemingway's works - Santiago.
Santiago went to sea for 84 days and got nothing. His tenacity and hard work ushered in the promising dawn on the 85th day and the brilliant sunshine on the 85th day. On the 85th day, the old man went to sea. In the vast sea, his persistence finally paid off: a huge Marlin was hooked.
In the next four days, the old man competed with the big marlin. The scorching sun is not afraid of the sky, the cold wind is not afraid of the bone, and the lack of water is not afraid. With his courage and strength, he defeated the marlin and ushered in the dawn of victory. Many desc riptions vividly show the old man's strong and never give up spirit. Although his hands were weak and his eyes were hard to use, he could only see the intermittent together, and he kept trying. After trying again and again, the old man finally defeated the big marlin. The image of such a tough man is vivid in Hemingway's works. He not only told us to dare to fight against fate and challenge failure and death, but also told us to persevere in the face of things and be unwilling to fail. When we face difficulties, we should, as the article said, "now is not a time to think about what you can do with what you have." in the face of difficulties, we should be calm, confident, not complaining. "
The old man and the sea also tells us that it is foolish for people not to hope. Even if life deceives us, we should be optimistic. So I send a poem to Santiago and his grass carp, and the people who are disappointed in life and can't find a direction: "if life deceives you, don't be sad, don't be anxious, believe it, happy days will come. The heart will always yearn for the future, everything is fleeting, everything will pass. And what has passed will become eternal nostalgia."
This year winter vacation, I read the American well-known writer
Hemingways novel " old person and sea "。 I extremely admire in the novel the senior fishermans will, he let me understand one person certainly must have relentless spirit, only then could obtain successfully.
The novel description is one year near sixty years of age senior fisherman, when alone goes to sea in one fishing, fished one big fish, actually did not pull. The senior fisherman socialized several days after the fish, only then discovered this was the big marlin which one surpassed the oneself fishing boat several fold, although knew perfectly well very difficult to win, but still did not give up. Afterwards and further because in the big marlin wound fish fishy smell brought in several crowds of shark fish snatches the food, but the old person still did not hope like this to give up, finally highlighted encircles tightly, returned to the big fish belt the fishing port, lets other fishermen not admire already.
When I read " the senior fisherman think: Here to the seacoast really was too near, perhaps could have a bigger fish in a farther place.。. " When, I extremely admire this senior fisherman, because he by now already projected on some fish, but he had not settled to the present situation, but was approaches the bigger goal advance. Again has a look us, usually meets one slightly is difficult, we all complain incessantly. We will be the motherland future, will be supposed to like this old person same mind lofty aspiration, will even better pursue even better, the bigger goal.
When I read " the big marlin start fast to gather round the young fishing boat hover, twined the cable on the mast, the old person right hand lifted up high the steel fork, leapt the water surface in it the flash, did utmost throws to its heart, one wail ended the big fishs life, it was static static floats on the water surface.。. " When, my heart also liked together the big stone falls. I extremely admire old person that kind do not dread, the relentless spirit,
although knows the match strength is very strong, but he not slightly flinches, but is welcomes difficultly above. Just because had this kind of spirit, the senior fisherman only then achieved this life and death contest success. We also must study senior fishermans spirit in life, handles the matter does not fear the difficulty, only then can obtain successfully.
Was reading the big fishs smell of blood is smelled by one crowd of shark fish, struggled swims snatches the food, old persons left hand happen to in the convulsions, he only could use the right hand, with wooden stick， the mouth and so on all was allowed to use for the weapon self-defense which attacked, and finally expelled this crowd of shark fish. But the big fishs meat was already eaten one most, but the old person also charmingly criticized oneself the left hand " this work time actually was resting " time, I also was subdued by the old person optimistic spirit. In the life, some losses are inevitable, we should treat by the optimistic manner, cannot be calculating.
Finally, the novel sees by one youth the senior fisherman fully has 18 foot long big marlin in the measure, once more described this fishs hugeness, explained senior fisherman overcomes the difficulty was big, non- was more common than.
The novel eulogized the spirit which the senior fisherman fear hard and dangerous diligently did not struggle, we also should like his such, could not satisfy the present situation, should positively to above, do any matter all is relentless, meets difficultly must welcome difficultly above, could give up halfway in no way. Only has this, we only then can obtain a bigger success and the victory.
When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.But when I read it in English,I really gain something new both in the way of expression and the spirit it shows to us.May be different ages to read the same book we will learn different things from it.At least, for my part, that is true.
Firstly,I would like to review some information about this book.Such as the background,major characters and the topic of it.
The Old Man and the Sea is a story by Ernest Hemingway, written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952. It was the last major work of fiction to be produced by Hemingway and published in his lifetime. One of his most famous works, it centers upon Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who struggles with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream.
The Old Man and the Sea served to reinvigorate Hemingway's literary reputation and prompted a reexamination of his entire body of work. The novella was initially received with much popularity; it restored many readers' confidence in Hemingway's capability as an author. Its publisher, Scribner's, on an early dust jacket, called the novella a "new classic," and many critics favorably compared it with such works as William Faulkner's "The Bear" and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick.
This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the man’s braveness and persistence.
In this book, in order to suggest the profundity of the old man’s sacrifice and the glory that derives from it, Hemingway purposefully likens Santiago to Christ, who, according to Christian theology, gave his life for the greater glory of humankind. Crucifixion imagery is the most noticeable way in which Hemingway creates the symbolic parallel between Santiago and Christ. When Santiago’s palms are first cut by his fishing line, the reader cannot help but think of Christ suffering his stigmata. Later, when the sharks arrive, Hemingway portrays the old man as a crucified martyr, saying that he makes a noise similar to that of a man having nails driven through his hands. Furthermore, the image of the old man struggling up the hill with his mast across his shoulders recalls Christ’s march toward Calvary. Even the position in which Santiago collapses on his bed—face down with his arms out straight and the palms of his hands up—brings to mind the image of Christ suffering on the cross. Hemingway employs these images in the final pages of the novella in order to link Santiago to Christ, who exemplified transcendence by turning loss into gain, defeat into triumph, and even death into renewed life.
The major characters in this book are also vivid and lively.
Santiago?，the old man of the novella’s title, Santiago is a Cuban fisherman who has had an extended run of bad luck. Despite his expertise, he has been unable to catch a fish for eighty-four days. He is humble, yet exhibits a justified pride in his abilities. His knowledge of the sea and its creatures, and of his craft, is unparalleled and helps him preserve a sense of hope regardless of circumstance.
The marlin?，Santiago hooks the marlin, which we learn at the end of the novella measures eighteen feet, on the first afternoon of his fishing expedition. Manolin?，a boy presumably in his adolescence, Manolin is Santiago’s apprentice and devoted attendant. The old man first took him out on a boat when he was merely five years old. Due to Santiago’s recent bad luck, Manolin’s parents have forced the boy to go out on a different fishing boat. Manolin, however, still cares deeply for the old man, to whom he continues to look as a mentor.
Joe DiMaggio, although DiMaggio never appears in the novel, he plays a significant role nonetheless. Santiago worships him as a model of strength and commitment, and his thoughts turn toward DiMaggio whenever he needs to reassure himself of his own strength. Perico ？，Perico, the reader assumes, owns the bodega in Santiago’s village. He never appears in the novel, but he serves an important role in the fisherman’s life by providing him with newspapers that report the baseball scores. This act establishes him as a kind man who helps the aging Santiago.
Martin,like Perico, Martin, a café owner in Santiago’s village, does not appear in the story. The reader learns of him through Manolin, who often goes to Martin for Santiago’s supper. As the old man says, Martin is a man of frequent kindness who deserves to be repaid.
From the very first paragraph, Santiago is characterized as someone struggling against defeat. He has gone eighty-four days without catching a fish—he will soon pass his own record of eighty-seven days. Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle, the sail of his skiff resembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But the old man refuses defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promise to be. He lands the marlin, tying his record of eighty-seven days after a brutal three-day fight, and he continues to ward off sharks from stealing his prey, even though he knows the battle is useless.
Because Santiago is pitted against the creatures of the sea, some readers choose to view the tale as a chronicle of man’s battle against the natural world, but the novella is, more accurately, the story of man’s place within nature. Both Santiago and the marlin display qualities of pride, honor, and bravery, and both are subject to the same eternal law: they must kill or be killed. As Santiago reflects when he watches the weary warbler fly toward shore, where it will inevitably meet the hawk, the world is filled with predators, and no living thing can escape the inevitable struggle that will lead to its death. Santiago lives according to his own observation: “man is not made for defeat 。 。 。 [a] man can be destroyed but not defeated.” In Hemingway’s portrait of the world, death is inevitable, but the best men （and animals） will nonetheless refuse to give in to its power. Accordingly, man and fish will struggle to the death, just as hungry sharks will lay waste to an old man’s trophy catch.
The novel suggests that it is possible to transcend this natural law. In fact, the very inevitability of destruction creates the terms that allow a worthy man or beast to transcend it. It is precisely through the effort to battle the inevitable that a man can prove himself. Indeed, a man can prove this determination over and over through the worthiness of the opponents he chooses to face. Santiago finds the marlin worthy of a fight, just as he once found “the great negro of Cienfuegos” worthy. HSantiago, though destroyed at the end of the novella, is never defeated. Instead, he emerges as a hero. Santiago’s struggle does not enable him to change man’s place in the world. Rather, it enables him to meet his most dignified destiny.
While it is certainly true that Santiago’s eighty-four-day run of bad luck is an affront to his pride as a masterful fisherman, and that his attempt to bear out his skills by sailing far into the gulf waters leads to disaster, Hemingway does not condemn his protagonist for being full of pride. On the contrary, Santiago stands as proof that pride motivates men to greatness. Because the old man acknowledges that he killed the mighty marlin largely out of pride, and because his capture of the marlin leads in turn to his heroic transcendence of defeat, pride becomes the source of Santiago’s greatest strength. Without a ferocious sense of pride, that battle would never have been fought, or more likely, it would have been abandoned before the end.
Santiago’s pride also motivates his desire to transcend the destructive forces of nature. Throughout the novel, no matter how baleful his circumstances become, the old man exhibits an unflagging determination to catch the marlin and bring it to shore. When the first shark arrives, Santiago’s resolve is mentioned twice in the space of just a few paragraphs. Even if the old man had returned with the marlin intact, his moment of glory, like the marlin’s meat, would have been short-lived. The glory and honor Santiago accrues comes not from his battle itself but from his pride and determination to fight.
Santiago dreams his pleasant dream of the lions at play on the beaches of Africa three times. The first time is the night before he departs on his three-day fishing expedition, the second occurs when he sleeps on the boat for a few hours in the middle of his struggle with the marlin, and the third takes place at the very end of the book. In fact, the sober promise of the triumph and regeneration with which the novella closes is supported by the final image of the lions. Because Santiago associates the lions with his youth, the dream suggests the circular nature of life. Additionally, because Santiago imagines the lions, fierce predators, playing, his dream suggests a harmony between the opposing forces—life and death, love and hate, destruction and regeneration—of nature.
This book gives me courage of conquering all kinds of difficulties 。And I have the belief that the most beautiful thing is the process that we make our best to achieve our dream,and never say give up 。
"The old man and the sea" created a classic tough guy image. A man named sangdeya brother Cuban old fisherman，a man fishing alone in the 48 days after，have gained nothing caught a huge marlin. This is the old man never seen nor heard a big fish said his boat was two feet longer than the. Jin also big fish，dragging the boat drift for two days and two nights，the elderly have never experienced a difficult test in this two days and two nights，finally the barb，tied to the bow. But then they met a shark，the old man and the sharks were life-and-death struggle，the big marlin was eaten by sharks，fish skeleton old man finally dragged home only a bare.
Why not let the elderly Hemingway final victory? Novel in the words of the elderly: "a person is not born to be defeated"，"a man can be destroyed，but not defeated." This is the "old man and the sea" to reveal the philosophy. Undeniably，as long as one would have defects. When a person recognizes this shorting and tried to overe it and not go to it，no matter finally caught a full marlin or an empty skeleton，which have not really matter，because a person's life has value in the hunt Marlins in the process of fully embodied. Have their own pursuit of the ideal，struggle，he is not a winner? The old fisherman is wrong and the courage to challenge their own courage and confidence. Secular outlook from the perspective of victory，the old fisherman is not the final winner，because even though he began to beat the big marlin，but eventually the big marlin let sharks eat，he just took the big marlin bones house back to shore，that is to say，the shark is the winner. However，in the eyes of ide
alists，the old fisherman is a winner，because he has never been to sea to the big marlin sharks more promise and not to surrender. As music master Beethoven said，"I can be destroyed，but can never be conquered"。
Human nature is a powerful，humanity itself has its own limits，but it is because of the old fisherman such people again and again to challenge the limits，beyond them，this limit was extended again and again，and again a greater challenge in front of human beings. In this sense，the old fisherman sangdeya brother this hero，whether they challenge limit is success or failure，is always worthy of our respect. Because，he brings us is the most noble human self-confidence!
Life is an endless pursuit. It is the road long，difficult and full of ups and downs，but，as long as he has a brave and confident heart to meet the challenge，he will always be a real winner!
The old man and the sea creates a classic image of a tough man. An old fisherman named Santiago of Cuba went fishing alone and caught a huge Marlin after 84 days of nothing. This is a big fish two feet longer than his boat that the old man has never seen or heard of. The fish was strong and strong. He dragged the boat and drifted for two days and nights. In these two days and nights, the old man experienced a difficult test that he had never experienced before, and finally stabbed the big fish to death and tied it to the bow. However, at this time, he met a shark. The old man fought with the shark to the death. As a result, the marlin was eaten up by the shark. The old man finally dragged home with only a bare fish skeleton.
When I read about the fierce struggle between the old fisherman and sharks, I was really worried about him, but he always maintained an optimistic spirit to face some great difficulties. Seeing here, I couldn't help thinking of myself. Whenever I encounter some difficulties, I always feel very unhappy, feel very upset and want to escape from reality. Look at Grandpa fisherman again. No matter what difficulties he encounters, he doesn't shrink back, but faces them bravely!
Life should also be like this. Don't be greedy and afraid of death. Have confidence in yourself. Even if we encounter many difficulties, we should never let it down. We should bravely eliminate it.
We are the future of our motherland. We should be as ambitious as Grandpa fisherman and pursue better and bigger goals. I believe that with my efforts, I will become as brave and brave as Grandpa fisherman. Life is an endless pursuit. Its road is long, difficult and full of ups and downs, but as long as he bravely and tenaciously meets the challenge with a confident heart, he will always be a real winner!
I will remember that a man is not born to be defeated. You can destroy him as much as you can, but you can't defeat him.
《The old man and the sea》Reading notes
A boat across the end of the world, into the unknown sea, hanging on the bow side while the ravaging denudation are still gorgeous matchless flag, flags, waving yunlong general four words glittering -- beyond the limit!
《The old man and the sea》is a profound classic tragedy of the novel, is also a heroic symphony. Hemingway said: "I was trying to describe a real old man, a real child, the real sea, a genuine fish and a lot of genuine shark. However, if I can write realistic enough, they can also represent a lot of other things." Story about the old man Santiago is a man of bad luck, didn't catch fish for 84 days, while other fisherman regarded him as a failure. But it seemed to herald the beginning of a battle, and sure enough, on the 85th day, he really found a 1500 - pound salmon, knowing each other strength than he is strong, is determined to fight to the end. He says to the fish: "I shall get to you!" And finally succeeded in the end. After the old man worked so hard to catch fish, test is not over yet. Fish for big and long, he had to put the fish in the side of the ship. Turn back, the big fish blood drew shark attacks again and again. So he used up all personal means to fight back. Harpoon was taken away by sharks, he tied the knife on the oar disorderly. The
knife is broken, he short stick. Short stick is lost, he topical rudder to play. Although the fish to bite, but what also can't trample upon his will. God seems to pity had such a great man, he will be bad luck again and again fell on the old man, his perseverance and eventually failed to get good results, back to Hong Kong only fish head fish and a spine.
Old man always doing different things with others, he dares to do is to others and did not dare to do, although there are many people don't understand him, but he still do. Old man in the midst of the sea has experienced too many things, when he caught a big blue and white fish, also excited rang up, after more than two months, the fact that he did not catch a fish, he began to himself, talking on the sea is a bad thing, it was all at sea between the fisherman's a kind of moral character, but the old man because of lonely there may be other external factors, contribute to shouted to the old man out of the words in my heart, the old man is eager to meet lost fish, because fish would be among them, the old man at the time of eighty-five days with large mackerel as bait, after the sun in his brain, coast away from him, in his some visual eyes only a slice of the endless sea and the green mountains.
Human nature is powerful, and humanity itself has its own
limit, but it is because of the old fisherman such people again and again to challenge the limits, beyond them, the limit of time and time again to expand, and the bigger challenge before the human. In this sense, the old fisherman diego such a hero, whether they challenge limit is success or failure, are worth we always respected. Because, he brings us is the most noble human self-confidence!
People alive, the inevitable, the only certainty is death. In addition, there is no inevitable things can rely on. Since man alive on the chance, then, support people is confidence. If you lose confidence, after continuing bad luck so many days, Santiago have the courage and perseverance to sea fishing? So people alive must be confident, not self-confidence is a person can't afford to consumption of luxury goods. Just because Santiago is absolute confident, he was called to go to a child, said the full tolerance and understanding. Here Hemingway shows the relation between confidence and forgiveness.As a student, we don't have the pressure of life, we really didn't have received those things can be a setback. We have not to temporarily BenLao for life, also don't know the hardship of life. We do not know, in the society, there are many like the old fisherman, difficult to live, they never give up. The
migrant workers, vendors, tinker.。. Are living in a tough environment. They are the old man and the sea of a kind of interpretation, they are so strong, for life is full of love. Compared with the book, the old fisherman, or in real life compared with those living difficult, our life is very good, we should be more love life, and learn to strong in the face of all setbacks. The way we still have a long, in the future we will have more serious than ever more frustration and failure, but I believe, as long as the thought of the old fisherman, he's strong and love of life. We will also learn to strong, face the difficulties!
Everybody should be and that is life distress compared to the old fisherman, those who escape is really don't know what is the setback. We may be because the failure of the exam, and lose confidence in myself. Or because the criticism of others, and abandon. At the time, think about the strong old fisherman, he is how to face life. His heart, will release however many. Others and the sea, and the power of nature, and now we just face some study, setbacks in life, compared with the old fisherman, really is dwarfed. Remember that mentioned in the book, the old fishing boat on the old canvas, like the failure flag, as if to herald the old man always can't catch the fish's
bad luck. The old man and the sea "， the book portrays the a and bucket, in difficult circumstances, struggling to live the old fisherman. The old man and the sea "， the book depicts a fight with the sea, in difficult circumstances, struggling to live the old fisherman. Everyone should remember, mentioned in the book, the old fishing boat on the old canvas, like the failure flag, as if to herald the old man always can't catch the fish's bad luck. But, he did not give up, still fishing. In reality, many people can't insist, in the face of setbacks, chose to give up, chose to escape. And that is life distress compared to the old fisherman, those who escape is really don't know what is the setback. We may be because the failure of the exam, and lose confidence in myself. Or because the criticism of others, and abandon. At the time, think about the strong old fisherman, he is how to face life. His heart, will release however many. Others and the sea, and the power of nature, and now we just face some study, setbacks in life, compared with the old fisherman, really is dwarfed.
Lu xun once said: "the great breadth of view, should show such spirit - with smiling face to meet the fate of the tragic with confidence in the courage to cope with his own misfortune." Yeah! When we encounter bad luck and misfortune, rather than
After a week's insistence, I finally finished reading "the old man and the sea" this foreign name. The book left a deep impression on me, I can't forget it. This novel mainly wrote one old man fishing in the sea alone. He caught a big fish, the fish head and upper body tied to the edge of the boat. But he met the shark, the old man pulled out all the stops and shark struggle, sharks eat fish can eat to all live to 800 pounds.
Look at the book, my heart can't be calm once in a long time, the common and respectable old man made me deeply understood: "perchance life should not be any difficulties, should do their best efforts and hardships do indomitable struggle of life.
Santiago ALGOL grandpa's stubborn spirit really makes me admire. Whenever I read about grandpa during a fierce battle with the sharks, I feel I do not know want nervous or worry about grandpa, grandpa, however, is always the spirit of optimism to face some great difficulties. See here, I couldn't help thinking of yourself, when I met with some difficulties, I always feel very frustrated, feel very tired, really want to escape from reality. Look at somebody else's Santiago ALGOL grandpa, undeterred by whether encounter any difficulty, but bravely to face!
So it should be human, not a death mask, to have confidence in myself. Even if we encounter difficulties, should not let it to beat, should bravely to destroy it.
I believe that with my efforts, I will become like Santiago ALGOL grandpa so brave, so brave to fight.
经过一星期的坚持，我终于读完了《老人与海》这本外国名著。这本书给我留下了深刻印象，使我无法忘记它。这本小说主要写了一位老人独自在海上打鱼。他钓到了一条大鱼，把鱼头和上半身绑在小船边上。但是他遇上了鲨鱼，老人使出了浑身解数和鲨鱼搏斗，鲨鱼把能吃到的鱼肉都吃了却还有800磅左右。
看了这本书，我的心久久不能平静，这位普通而又可敬的。老人使我深深的懂得了：“做人不应该被任何困难所压服，应该尽自己最大的努力与生活中的磨难做不屈不挠的斗争。
桑提阿果爷爷的硬骨头精神实在令我佩服。每当我读到爷爷与鲨鱼进行激烈的搏斗时，我的心情不知是要紧张还是要为爷爷担心，可是爷爷，总是保持着乐观的精神去面对一些极大的困难。看到这里，我不由得想起了自己，每当我遇到了一些困难时，总是觉得很不顺心，觉得很烦，很想逃避现实。再看看人家桑提阿果爷爷，不管遇到任何困难也毫不退缩，而是勇敢地去面对！
做人也应该这样，不要一副贪生怕死的样子，要对自己有信心。即使我们遇到重重困难，也绝不应该让它给打倒，应该勇敢地去消灭它。
我相信，在我的努力下，我一定会变得像桑提阿果爷爷那样勇敢，那样勇于拼搏。
The novel told a story about how the old fisherman Santiago struggled with the sea. Santiago gained a huge fish called Marlin after having drifted in the sea for 84 days. It was a fish that is 2 feet longer than the boat and that had dragged his boat for two days before being stabbed to death. It seemed that the old man wasn’t so successful, because he encountered a shark, struggled with the serious environments, even the only spoil——Marlin just left a skeleton. However, the most important thing is that Santiago had never given up for a moment.
In this novel, I am deeply impressed by his persevering. I admire the old fisherman for his steel-like mind and persistence. I think there’s a real young man inside him, although he is at an old age and no longer goes back to his youth. From the strong comparison between the old look and the young heart, we can easily find that it is the positive firm spirits that make us hold our hopes and keep trying all the time and finally guide the roads towards success.
Through the vivid description about the struggle between human and nature, Hemingway expresses his opinion that the courage inside human beings can help us face any failure and overcome any difficulty. In the book, the hero Santiago was beat by the shark, which we regard as a symbol of doom, but he chose to struggle with the fortune instead of losing faith in his life. Just the same as the hero Santiago, all of us will meet with various kinds of difficulties in our daily life, which is a rule of human’s fate. So how can we adjust our attitudes toward these and what should we do with so many problems? The old fisherman tell us the truth——“Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not be defeated”。
The old man and the sea is one of Hemingway's representative works. In the whole novel, we see the story of a strong and courageous old man fighting at sea.
In the development process of the story, with the escalation of the intensity of the whole struggle, the interest of the whole story is also upgraded simultaneously. Therefore, many people think that it is really a boring story, which is understandable.
Because there is a very obvious difference between the descr iption of the plot of western novels and that of Oriental novels. In our common novels, the development of the plot of the novel must have a gradual process, and the progression of the story is also very intense.
However, in western novels, the development of the plot is often more insipid. Moreover, for Eastern readers, because the novel itself is a translation, there are some misunderstandings in the understanding of the whole story. For readers, what they understand has been filtered by other people's thoughts, so they can't really grasp the author's initial thoughts and views.
The final result of the old man and the sea is actually puzzling. Because the old man finally experienced a life and death struggle and got only a fish rack without any effect, the ending of the whole story is actually full of a certain tragic color. It will not only make us want to say, is it worth the old man's effort?
In fact, if we look back and comb the novel again, we will find that in fact, the old man has got what he wants most.
Because in such an environment, if there is no such struggle, the old man may have no hope of survival.
