《老人与海》英文版读后感1

The Old Man And The Sea This is a great book, mind you.

How I gave opinions to that is the spirits of Santiago greatly

affected me. But the author, Earnest Hemingway said if his writing

is really good, then the characters can also be many other things.

Santiago is a mon fisherman, and he hadn't had a fish for 84 days.

And this time when he left he fished a big salmon by himlf. He

fought the fish for 3 days and nights and finally he kills it. He

called it his 'brother'. But he then had to fight the sharks and

finally he gone home with a fish spine, and some fish bones. I

could find his great spirits of never giving up. Particularly if he just

loo the grip of the fishing poleand let the fish go, he wouldn't

have any trouble, but he can stay to the end. Something I regret

to tell you is that I didn't read this book very carefully, so I intend

to tell you I want to read this book again and tell you what I've

gained through the cond-time reading.

《老人与海》英文版读后感4

When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book

in when I read it in English,I really gain something

new both in the way of expression and the spirit it shows to

be different ages to read the same book we will learn

different things from least, for my part, that is true.

Firstly,I would like to review some information about this

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 rved to reinvigorate

Hemingways 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

Hemingways capability as an author. Its publisher, Scribners, on

an early dust jacket, called the novella a "new classic," and many

critics favorably pared it with such works as William Faulkners

"The Bear" and Herman Melvilles Moby-Dick.

This book gives me a deep impression especially the

description about the man’s braveness and persistence.

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 experti, 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 a and its creatures, and of his

craft, is unparalleled and helps him prerve a n 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 dee* 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 mitment, and his thoughts turn

toward DiMaggio whenever he needs to reassure himlf of his

own strength. Perico ,Perico, the reader assumes, owns the

bodega in Santiago’s village. He never appears in the novel, but

he rves an important role in the fisherman’s life by providing

him with newspapers that report the baball 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 derves

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-ven days. Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle,

the sail of his skiff rembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But

the old man refus defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out

beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promi to

be. He lands the marlin, tying his record of eighty-ven 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 uless.

Becau Santiago is pitted against the creatures of the a,

some readers choo 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 obrvation: “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 refu 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 precily

through the effort to battle the inevitable that a man can prove

himlf. Indeed, a man can prove this determination over and

over through the worthiness of the opponents he choos 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. Becau

the old man acknowledges that he killed the mighty marlin largely

out of pride, and becau his capture of the marlin leads in turn

to his heroic transcendence of defeat, pride es the source of

Santiago’s greatest strength. Without a ferocious n 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 e, 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 es not from his battle itlf 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 cond 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 promi of the triumph and

regeneration with which the novella clos is supported by the

final image of the lions. Becau Santiago associates the lions with

his youth, the dream suggests the circular nature of life.

Additionally, becau 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 .

《老人与海》英文版读后感5

The old man and the a "is a novel written by American

writer Hemingway, an old fisherman named Santiago eighty-four

concutive days did not catch a fish, although he has grey-haired, but he refud to admit defeat, still full of fighting spirit.

At his insistence, finally in eighty-fifth days caught a one

thousand and five hundred pound fish, eighteen feet long, the

fish pulled the old man boat into the a to swim, in no water and

no food, no tools and peer predicament, the old man is still in the

fight with the big fish, two days later he finally killed the fish, but

also attracted many sharks, although he waged a fierce battle

with the sharks, but he managed to get the big fish eat shark, the

old man had to go home with the rest of the fish bones.

After reading the novel, I was dee* moved by the old man,

and some people may think that the old mans behavior is very

stupid, in the "no harvest" days can still hold on. Moreover, the

old man was fortunate enough to have a big fish after a fierce

struggle and was eaten by sharks, and what the old man had

done before emed meaningless to them. But in my opinion, the

old man is admirable. First of all, the old man was very patient,

and for the long days he did not reap anything. Even if he was

laughed at, he persisted. Finally, his perverance came in, but he

had to fight the big fish. In the process, he was the only one on

the ship. From the spiritual point of view, he was lonely, and there

was no food on the ship, and his body could not support him any

longer. In the physical and mental torture, he still pervered, and

this is what I admire most of him.

I feel the same about the old man. In junior high school, we

have to reform the sports running, long-distance running, for no

movement of the cells for me, it is a bolt from the blue. When I

first started, I was far from perfect. For me, it is to get out of class

to tell some fantastic tales, most students are an easy job to do.

If in sports in this regard with others widen the gap, he may also

be very sorry. So I decided to practice long-distance running,

maybe I could sprint the full score on the day of the exam. So in

addition to the provisions of the morning school every day after

school every day I ran outside, to walk a few laps around the track

and field.

Distance examination and more than a year, long distance is

really very strenuous, every time run out in a sweat does not say,

for my poor people, running really very hard, from the beginning

of the cond lap breathing difficulties, when there are half circle

of people want to fall to the ground, but also to be speed run,

sprinting throat like something off, as if next cond there is

something to be poured out. But I still insist on, and finally to the

examination day, although I tried my best, but still a little bit out

of full marks. Know the moment of achievement, tears

involuntarily in the eyes of the rotation, in mind, before the efforts

are in vain?. Now, Zhang Sijia feels that his efforts are not without

progress. At least I have made great progress.

Maybe sometimes, in the eyes of others, you insist on things

is meaningless, but not all things can be plished, there must be a

long process, through the long process, even if not successful,

but they also can get to it.
