推荐第1篇：老人与海 读后感 英文
在这部小说中，我非常佩服老渔夫的意志，老渔夫让我懂得了一个人必需要有坚持不懈的精神，才能获得成功。小说通过人与自然的斗争，表达了人要勇敢地面对失败。桑提亚哥在同象征厄运的鲨鱼的斗争中虽然失败了，但他并没有在厄运面前屈服，认为人虽可以暂时战败，但人的精神和意志是永远也打不垮的。“一个人并不是生来要给打败的，你尽可以把他消灭掉，可就是打不败他”，他的这句话在我心中留下了深刻的印象。小说在艺术上具有很高的概括性、寓言性和象征性。运用反衬法、内心独白来刻画人物性格。
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 succeful, 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 impreed 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 succe.
Through the vivid description about the struggle between human and nature, Hemingway exprees 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”.
小说描写的是一个老渔夫桑地亚哥，他是一位孤独，而又英勇无畏、热爱生活、渴望胜利的老人。小说一开始，就奠定了其失败与孤独的命运基调——“他是个独自在湾流中一条平底小帆船上钓鱼的老人，这一回已去了八十四天，没逮上一条鱼”，“倒霉到了极点”。他的打了补丁的船帆，“像是一面标志着永远失败的旗子”。他曾有妻子，但已去世的妻子只成了画像，映照着他的孤独。他也有过年轻时的辉煌，并曾在角力中荣获过人人羡慕的“冠军”。但是现在，他却成了一面古老破败、伤痕累累的旗。“他不再梦见风暴，不再梦见女人，不再梦见伟迹，不再梦见大鱼，不再梦见搏斗，不再梦见角力，不再梦见他的老婆”。仿佛他已一无所有。在一次单身出海打鱼时，一条大鱼上了钩，却拉不上来。老渔夫同鱼周旋了几天后，才发现这是一条超过自己渔船数倍的大马林鱼，虽然明知很难取胜，但仍不放弃。他充分利用自己捕鱼的技巧，慢慢浪费大鱼的体力，当鱼不再够力气拉着渔船向前时，它开始绕着船
转，它越游越近，最后被渔夫用渔叉一下刺死了。后来又因大马林鱼伤口上的鱼腥味引来了几群鲨鱼抢食，但老人仍不愿就这样放弃，与一条又一条的鲨鱼搏斗，但是无奈武器都被鲨鱼破坏掉，鱼被吃掉了一大半，只剩下鱼头和鱼骨，渔夫此时亦筋疲力尽，无力继续保护鱼了，但他还是把残骸带回了渔港，让其他渔夫佩服不已。最后，小说以一个少年看到老渔夫在度量足有十八英尺长的大马林鱼，再次描写了这条鱼的巨大，说明老渔夫所克服的困难之大，非比寻常。仔细想想，人生中谁没有失败过，最重要的是在失败过后重新勇敢的站起来，积极的去面对，去寻找失败的根本原因，并改正。“人生能有几回搏”，我们要全力以赴，以全心的面貌去挑战，坚信成功将不再遥远。
《老人与海》的叙事艺术无疑是相当杰出的。一方面，它是海明威“冰山理论”的又一次极为成功的体现。他在谈到《老人与海》的创作时曾经说过：“《老人与海》本来可以写成一千多页那么长”，但他“总是根据冰山的原理去写它。关于显现出来的每一部分，八分之七是在水面的。你可以略去你所知道的任何东西，这只会使你的冰山深厚起来。这是并不显现出来的部分”。在它简单的故事情节背后，深藏着我们前面所阐述的那样丰富而又博大的世界；另一方面，它像诗篇，像是一曲交织着沉郁、苦难、昂扬与庄严，甚至也不无明丽与柔情的气魄宏伟的交响曲。
人生有如一次长旅，不可能总是一帆风顺，因为爱情、家庭、仕途的挫折，每个人都可能有困惑、迷惘、失意而不自拔的时候，一种颓丧、空虚、落寞的情绪有如阴雨连绵，久下不停，而海明威的《老人与海》，犹如一轮艳阳照亮了读者的心灵，照亮了前行的人生之路。

Impreion after reading The Old Man and the Sea
Ernest Hemingway is one of my favourite writers, and his famous work The Old Man and the Sea impreed me most.And his household
saying “A man is not made for defeat.A man can be destroyed but not defeated” has been always ringing in my ear.
The Old Man and the Sea is a story about the old fisherman Santiago who lived alone in sea fishing.After the 84 days with nothing，he caught a huge marlin.The fish was very large, and dragging the boat drifted for two days and nights.Finally the fish was stabbed and tied to the bow.However, it was unfortunate that some sharks suddenly turned up in returning, the old fisherman and the sharks had a desperate struggle.Finally, the giant marlin was eaten up by sharks.After some bitter days, the whacked old fisherman dragged home only a skeleton, but he was admired by local fishermen.The novel eulogized the spirit which the old man had.And I think we should learn from him in some extent.To begin with, we should never give up when faced with the fear and dangerous.Life itself is a kind of endle pursuit.And the road is long, difficult and full of obstacles.I firmly believe that we will win when we make a decision to overcome and try our best to do something.And as long as we tenaciously face the challenges with a brave heart and confidence, we will always be a real winner! What is more, although the old man may not have great physical
strength, he still has a mind that is capable of many things.So never look down upon old people.We must realize that they have gone through many experiences that we have not and that they hold a vast amount of knowledge about the world around them.As the saying goes “A man is not made for defeat.A man can be destroyed but not defeated”, we should always remember that never give up no matter how difficult conditions we will suffer.

Reading Report of The Old Man and the Sea
The Old Man and the Sea was written by an American writer named Ernest Hemingway.It has been translated into tens of languages, and the writer was so proud of his work.
Santiago, the hero of the story, had gone eighty-four days without taking a fish back.At first, a boy named Manolion had been with him, but Santiago couldn’t catch even one fish.The boy had gone at his parents’ orders in a lucky boat which caught three good fish the first week, and the couple thought that it was definitely and finally bad to let their boy stay with the old fisherman.On Santiago’s eighty-fifth day of fishing, he went out alone, leaving the smell of the land behind and rowing out into the clean early morning smell of ocean.To his surprise, he caught a tuna which he had never seen before and it was hard to believe that the tuna was bigger than his boat.Later, the blood from the tuna left a trail for all sharks as wide as a highway, so fighting against sharks was unavoidable.The result was that sharks ate up all the meat of the tuna and Santiago only brought the tuna skeleton back.He was so tired that he slept deeply as soon as he got home, dreaming of lions.
In this story, Santiago was an old and poor widow though he was good at fishing and had so much valuable experience.He only lived on fishing all his life.At long last, he just brought the skeleton back, you may think such a fisherman should be a loser, but this result didn’t mean failing.On the contrary, Hemingway used the skeleton which was the pillar of spirit to strengthen the meaning of the old man’s life.Santiago was described as a perfect person who never gave up.
The boy named Manolion appeared in the beginning and at the end.Even during Santiago’s voyage, he always came to the poor old man’s mind.He was the only person who cared Santiago sincerely, trust Santiago absolutely, and the young boy wanted to be an inheritor of Santiago’s career.Hemingway not only told us the experience of fishing should be spread from generation to generation, but also expected us to admire, to learn from and to carry on the spirit of Santiago.The appearance of Manilion was not by chance, which was arranged by Hemingway.During Santiago’s long voyage, how much he wished the boy could have been with him to drive his loneline away.Youth is the symbol of energy and hope.Even an old man can be young inside.Lions appeared several times in Santiago’s dreams for they were living in his heart, which showed the spirit of Santiago would never be low.
The coming of the sharks could not be avoided.They can be thought as attack which can swallow your succe and happine.The story tells me to face the problems happened in my life with a heart as wide as ocean.Though the old man was lonely, he was a traveler who walked on the road of realizing his ideals.But he was not alone at the moment, for his will was so firm.The Old Man and the Sea has won the Nobel Prize at last, which is a comfort to the writer.

After reading the novel The Old Man and The Sea
The novel tells a story that an old man almost sixty years went to sea and fished alone in Santiago.The old fisherman had got nothing for eighty-four days and he almost died because of hunger.However, contrary to common people`s thought, he did not give up.In the eighty-fifth day, he fished a huge marlin whose body was eighteen feet in length, 1500 pounds in weight.The fish was so large that none of the Santiago`s fisherman had had got one.The old man fight with the large marlin for 3 days without any food, water and arms, and finally killed it.But, in the back journey, lots of small sharks ate out the marlin.As a result, the old man came back Santiago with the big marlin skeleton frame.
I think every reader will be deeply moved by the old fisherman as me.On the one hand, I am sympathy of his failure.On the other hand, I have a great esteem for the old man`s persistence and courage.Although he became old and failed, he still made great efforts and showed a positive attitude on failure.The novel shows us an outlook on life of striving——faced with the unconquerable nature, humans still can win in spirit.Maybe the result is failure, in the proce of striving, however, we can see a man of indomitable spirit.

The Old Man and the Sea
The Old Man and the Sea，a novel written by Ernest Hemingway, was published by Foreign Languages Pre in 2008.The writer is one of the most famous American novelist.Hemingway received the Pulitzer Prize in 1953 for The Old Man and the Sea and received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954.During his later life, Hemingway suffered from increasing physical and mental problems.In July 1961, he committed suicide by shooting himself.Hemingway’s distinctive writing style is characterized by economy and understatement and had a significant influence on the development of twentieth-century fiction writing.
The Old Man and the Sea is based on the true story.After World War II, Hemingway moved to Cuba, met old fisherman Gregorio Fuentes.In 1930, Hemingway by a ship in the storm, Fuentes rescued Hemingway.Since then, Hemingway and Fuentes forged a profound friendship, and often with fishing.In 1936, Fuentes was far out to sea to catch a big fish and many things happened.This is a book about the old fisherman who lived alone in sea fishing.After the 84 days with nothing，he caught a huge marlin.It had never been seen and heard of for the old man.The fish was at least two feet longer than his boat.The fish was very large, and dragging the boat drifted for two days and nights, the elderly was in a never suffered through a difficult test in these two days and two nights.Finally the fish
was stabbed and tied to the bow.However, it was unfortunate that some sharks suddenly turned up in returning, the elderly and the Shark had a desperate struggle.Finally, the giant marlin was eaten up by sharks.After
some bitter, the old people dragged home only a bare and a skeleton of
the injury, but he still be appreciated.
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...”
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 inceantly.We will be the
motherland’s 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 fish\'s life, it was static
floats on the water surface...”My heart also liked together the big stone
falls.I extremely admire old person that kind do not dread, the relentle
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 succe.We also must study senior fisherman’s spirit in life, handles the matter does not fear the difficulty, only then can obtain succefully.
The novel eulogized the spirit which the senior fisherman had.And I think we should learn from him in some extent.To begin with, we should never give up when faced with the fear and dangerous.When we make a decision to overcome and try our best to do something, I firmly believe that we will win.Secondly, Life itself is a kind of endle pursuit.It is the road long, difficult and full of ups and downs.But as long as our own tenaciously to a brave heart to meet the challenges of self-confidence, we will always be a real winner! What is more, I think the false beliefs about the weakne of the elderly can be turned around only if society looks much harder at their abilities and their goals.We must begin to see that although they may not have great physical strength, they still have a mind that is capable of many things.There are many jobs that they can hold in the workplace and many things they can do to help society of which we, the younger generation, are not aware.We must realize that they have gone through many experiences that we have not and that they hold a vast amount of knowledge about the world around them.There will come a time when one\'s age does not determine the value of one\'s life, but we can change that dream to reality only if we try.
Hemingway\'s legacy to American literature is his style: writers who
came after him emulated it or avoided it.After his reputation was sealed with the publication of The Sun Also Rises, he became the spokesperson for the post-World War I generation, having established a style to follow.Reynolds aerts the legacy is that “he left stories and novels so starkly moving that some have become part of our cultural heritage.” In a 2004 speech at the John F.Kennedy Library, Ruell Banks declared that he, like many male writers of his generation, was influenced by Hemingway\'s writing philosophy, style, and public image.Conversely, as early as the 1930s Hemingway’s style was parodied, and criticized as “lazy” within the context of the “American literary tradition.”
In a word, Hemingway is a good writer and the book The Old Man and the Sea is worth reading.I hope you will read this book and learn something useful from the old man.

The old man and the sea
I first read the old man and the sea when I was a middle school student and I didn’t really know what the author wanted to expre.I just regarded it as an interesting story.
Nowadays, I read it again, only then did I know what it really means.The main character in the story is an unlucky old fisherman, but very strong.One day he found a big marlin.Although he knew it was very difficult to win, he still tried his best to catch the fish.Unluckily, the blood of the fish attracted many sharks.
Perhaps, the result of the story is not important now.I have to admire his courage and perseverance.There are still some questions for us to think about.When we meet difficulties, should we avoid them or face them?
The old man told us the answer .he struggled with the nature, although compared to nature he was too small.He also exceeded himself.
This book teaches me a lot about the attitude towards difficulties.

The old man and the sea: prove of self-worth This book is the famous American writer Hemingway\'s masterpiece.This book tells the story of a fisherman.In Cuba, an old man called Santiago for eighty-four days did not catch fish, at last he caught a big marlin, but this fish is too big, his boat dragged on for three days exhausted in the sea, was killed by him tied to the side of the boat.On the way home, he was attacked by a shark, and finally returned to harbor only with the fish tail and a spine.During the days that the old Santiago put out to sea, his great friends waiting faithfully by the sea, with full confidence to meet his return.
In the middle of the book, the author used a lot of space to describe the fish and the old man\'s feelings about the fish and the ocean, all reflect the old man\'s pursuit and love of a better life.The fishing proce was so difficult, so it took courage and indomitable spirit, when he was exhausted, he would have to face a new struggle, and the struggle came to the old man one after another, finally the old man used wisdom and courage to repel each other.Life should always be full of hope and courage, seriously treat each encounter, and finally reap a reward of our own life.
Behind Hemingway\'s profound and subtle description, we often can feel a sense of emptine, loneline, longing for identity and self fulfillment.Behind Hemingway\'s real and profound description and ingenious story and fate, always reflect a truth: a life of loneline and any kind of self realization of escape behavior, ultimately in vain.Don\'t let it happen before you regret it.We are the bearers of our hearts and the keepers of our energy.Without love, any kind of self will lead to tragedy.In this seemingly ordinary life, everything seemed to be not worth mentioning, our problem is not how to seek solace in solitude, but how to face our own truth, understand our true existence, it will not be lost.In all behind, hid mystery and endle beauty, this is the most simple and rich life.
But overall, the topic of this book is a \"tough guy\" spirit, he does not succumb to fate, no matter how extremely hard and bitter environment, he oppose life with his own courage, perseverance and wisdom.Such an image of Santiago is a perfect expreion of what the author said: “Man is not made for defeat.A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”

A man can be destroyed but never defeated.
The novel\"The Old man and the sea\" is simple in plot but profound in meanning.An unluky old man called Santiago fished alone for 84 days without taking one fish.At the 85th day he found a exceptionally huge fish who is 2 feet longer than his skiff.In order to make a miracle ,He held the line for 2 day-and -nights, overed all the difficulties mentally and physically, finally he managed to kill the fish and bound it to his skiff.However, groups of sharks came to his trophy by tracing its scent.The old man defeated all the sharks but lost the meat of the fish. being tigered with wounds, he came back to the shore with the huge spine.After finishing the story, An affection of respect mounted in me.What a tough, strong-minded man he is.First, he has a clear, noble destination, or we can call it a powerful opponent, the great purple fish.In the story, the old man regarded the fish as the most \"beautiful\",\"noble\",\"calm \" thing . As he had said:\"I love you and respect you very much, But I will kill you dead until this day end.\"It is generally known that in every circumstance, destination is always the most critictle step in one\'s journey.One can never do his utmost until he realize how lofty his goal is.
Second, the proceion of his fight against the fish plays an important role in the plot..As we can imagine, an armle old man in a completely uncertain environment, confronted an enormous fish alone which is lager than his skiff.In such a rival of man against the whole environment, all the belongings could be neglected but the will and intelligence.The old man was so keen to put all his strength into the competition that he even hated his cramp.Maybe we\'ll never come cro that kind of dangerous situation, but who knows how many tough rival are confronting us in the future, all we can do is to calm down and face it bravely with our strong will and intelligence, just like the old man.What impred me most is the old man\'s reaction when he lost the fish slice by slice.One might think though he had spent a hard time in catching and killing the fish, he was still happy and satisfied in achieving his goal.But seeing what you got by risking your life robbed again and again by your own eyes can be doubtlely unbearable.However, the old man choose to coping with this situation with optimism, as he once said, \"Think about something cheerful, every minute you are closer to home, you sail lighter for the lo of 40 pounds.\" Sometimes we\'ll find our succe or opportunity vanishing bit by bit, but if we get into desperation instead of trying to save what is remained, we would be defeated to the core.Although the old man lost every thing but the skeleton and scars at last, he is still the winer.Sometimes, we are not reaching our destination although we spared no effort.But life is fulfilled by every drop of sweat and every single footprint.I think maybe that is what the novel really want to tell us.We can not surrender to destiny no matter how hard the it would be, then can we finish our journey without regret.As the word by the old man goes \" A man can be destroyed but never defeated.\"

Impreion of “The Old Man and the Sea”
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 expreion 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.[1] 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 claic,\" 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 impreion especially the description about the man’s bravene 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 acro 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 cro.Hemingway employs these images in the final pages of the novella in order to link Santiago to Christ, who exemplified transcendence by turning lo 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 regardle 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 nonethele.Santiago worships him as a model of strength and commitment, and his thoughts turn toward DiMaggio whenever he needs to reaure himself of his own strength.Perico ,Perico, the reader aumes, 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 kindne 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 pa 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 usele.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 nonethele 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 poible 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 worthine 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 greatne.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 aociates 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 proce that we make our best to achieve our dream,and never say give up .
