Old Man

"Old Man" Book ReviewThe ”Old Man” is brief but pregnant with meaning. It is about the old fisherman Santiago went fishing for eighty four days in a row without catching any fish, and finally in the first 85 days, he noticed salmon of a weight of more than 1,500 pounds, and began a hunt for three days and three nights, exhausted fish finally floated on the sea and died. In the return journey they were attacked by sharks repeatedly and finally when they returned to the port only a head and a tail chine were left.This is a far-reaching implication of the classical tragic novel. It is also a heroic symphony. Hemingway said: "I tried to describe a real old man, a real child, the real ocean, a real fish and a lot of real sharks. However, if I can write realistic enough, they also represent many other things. "Description of the old story of Santiago is a wretched man;84 days did not catch fish, while the other fisherman regarded him as a loser. But this seems to presage the start of a battle. Really, in the first 85 days, he found a salmon weighing1,500 pounds. Knowing that the fish was stronger himself, he still determined to fight in the end. He said: "I w ill fight with you in the end!” And he got the final victory.But the test was not over. Fish was big and long, he had to be tied to the ship's side of the fish.Return flight, the big 到此为止fish of the smell of blood drew the shark attacks again and again. So he means to counter the exhaustion of all individuals. Harpoon shark away, he put a knife blade on the chaos in the tie tied. Knife broke, he used truncheons. Truncheons also lost his rudder to fight topical. Although the results are bitten to the fish, but nothing can destroy his will. God seems to have such a great pity for the elderly, he will once again doom the old man down the end of his indomitable will but did not get a good result, returned to Hong Kong only a ridge under the head and tail bone.Why not let old Hemingway finally win it? Would not that be more able to reflect the great hero, it? The story of the elderly is not only a symbol of the relationship between man and nature, but also a symbol of the indestructible human spirit. In reality, though he failed, but in spirit, he is the winner, and his indomitable fighting spirit，demonstrated the dignity and human dignity. Over the care of all life, who did not experience the failure? Even more successful, failure can be varied, but in any case is always a failure you unbearable blow. Further out to sea, you willhave hope of victory. I think that this sinister life environment and this tough attitude, it is this work more attractive. Life itself is an endless pursuit, the story of old man said: "But people are not born for defeat, a man can be destroyed but not defeated." This sentence reminds me of Beethoven's "Fate Symphony ", Beethoven once said:" I can be destroyed, but I can not conquer.”They explained the meaning of the hero, the meaning of life. The text of the article to understand this sentence but also the ideological point: who is to face failure? From this perspective, this book is not a fable, not a fairy, but a realistic work. Victory in this novel is not important is the value of human life, the old man dared to challenge the limits, again and again beyond, had to let us admire, and he brought to mankind is a self-confidence, a strong spiritual strength."Old Man" gives me a lot of inspiration in life. What is failure, failure is to fall again get up the courage to once again fall once again climbs up, never lost hope in life, do not lose their life dreams. What is a hero, a hero is the courage to face setbacks and challenges setbacks, overcome their own to overcome setbacks, and they havethe courage might fail to complete their dream many times, this claim to be a hero. Like Hemingway's "Old Man", also learned a lot of Hemingway's life has ups and downs, through the war, experienced a disease and mental torture, in fact, he had the courage again and again, but unfortunately the end, he chose to commit suicide to end his own life, perhaps he has his own reasons, but he violated the "Old Man" in the elaboration of failure and heroes, which is a pity.Failure is not terrible. Terrible was their failure to yield, when to yield, then all dreams are not realized, that in real life has a very important meaning, I think life is like for the elderly, like fishing, there will be so brave to face Even if not successful, it will not because there is no effort to give life regrets, the stronger we will be living our life will be because we have worked so hard and exciting.。

Howeve r, it was so “heavy pressure” that his manner was graceful when the old man faced afterwards defeat and his optimistic, generous life attitude was worthy tasting by people carefully; it is him who plays the role of leading, inspiring to the readers, and increasing the appeal of the work, enriching the content of the work: although the little boy appears only at the beginning and the ending in the novel, there is nothing in his inner state but the old man, so his attitude and emotions towards the old man affects the readers’emotions for the old man quietly and gradually.

This novel has been attractive to many readers and critics even now. There is no doubt that many reasons may contribute to the success of the novel. But the main reason is the impressive and eternal artistic figure, Santiago, a representative of Code Hero. Hemingway created the classical image of code hero successfully. So many of researchers mainly focus on the code hero spirit of Santiago. However, there are also some optimistic and contradictory characters in Santiago. Apart from analyzing the code hero spirit of Santiago, this thesis also intends to analyze the optimism in Santiago’s personality and the contradiction of the c haracters of Santiago. This is the integrated image of Santiago. By analyzing these characters of Santiago, the readers can understand the image of Santiago deeply and completely.This thesis will analyze the characteristics of Santiago from the aspects as below: the Code Hero of Santiago, the Optimism in Santiago’s Personality, the Contradiction of the Characters of Santiago. The first chapter will introduce Hemingway and The Old Man and the Sea briefly. The second chapter introduces the spirit of Code Hero by analyzing the process of the old man catching Marlin and fighting with the sharks. The third chapter focuses on the optimistic characters of Santiago from Santiago’s attitude towards bird and lion. The fourth chapter discusses Santiago’s overt aggress ion, fishing for life and failure. This reflects the complexity of Santiago’s characters. The last part is the conclusion. This thesis advocates the unremitting and perseverant spirit from the analysis of the image of Santiago. Therefore, The Old Man and the Sea is one of the most influential and far-reaching novels of the literary treasure of the world.Key words: Code Hero; Character; Optimism; Contradiction内容摘要:《老人与海》的作者是欧内斯特·海明威。

关键词：《老人与海》，海明威，“硬汉”，桑地亚哥AbstractHemingway was one of the most famous novelists in America. He created a perfect image of Code Hero: Santiago in The Old Man and the Sea which won Hemingway Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. The Old Man and the Sea is one of the most influential and far-reaching novels of the literary treasure of the world. It’s so widely-read that people consider that “Whatever there is an intellectual, people know Hemingway and nobody knows Hemingway without knowing his works The Old Man and the Sea. Why the novel is so widely read? Why is it so influential and why is it so loved by the people of different colors and different nations? Surely many factors may contribute to the success of the novel. But the main factor, no doubt, is the touching and unforgettable portrait of the immortal artistic figure, Santiago, a representative of Code Hero.In the introduction of the essay, I will make a brief description about the contents of this novel and point out the main idea of the novel. The content of the essay is to analyze the characteristics of Code Hero. And then I will set out framework of the essay. The first part of the body is the background information. Through the introduction to Hemingway’s legend life, we find some common points between the author and the old man, and the most familiar point is that both of them have the spirit of Code Hero. In the second part of the body, I will portray the process of his catching Marlin and fighting with the sharks. Then I will analyses the spirit of Code Hero. The spirit is concentrated on four areas: First, never give up hopes in any difficult conditions; secondly, keep daring spirit and never admit defeat in the process of fighting; thirdly, behave heroically in the actual battle; and last, endure the loneliness in the long process of the fighting. The last part of the essay is the conclusion. This paper will analyze the image of the old man, reveal the characteristics of Code Hero, and advocate the spirit of never giving up.KEY WORDS：The Old Man and the Sea, Hemingway, Code Hero, SantiagoContents摘要AbstractIntroduction (1)Chapter One The Background Information (2)1.1 About the Author (2)1.2 The Author’s View on the Novel and the Old Man (3)Chapter Two The Four Characteristics of Code Hero (5)2.1 Everlasting Hope for the Future (5)2.2 Daring Spirit for Facing the Challenge (7)2.3 Heroic Behavior in the Actual Battle (9)2.4 Loneliness Endurance in the Long Fighting (10)Conclusion (12)Acknowledgements (13)Bibliography (14)IntroductionThe Old Man and the Sea was published in 1952 and was one of Hemingway’s most successful novels which won Hemingway Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954.The novel writes a very simple story which chronicles the adventure of Santiago, based on a true story of a Cuba fisherman. After eighty-four days without catching a fish, Santiago, an old Cuban hooks a giant fish. For two days and two nights the old man holds on while the fish pulls him further and further. Finally he kills the fish and ties it to his skiff. Almost at once, brutal sharks begin to take his price away. He struggles against the sharks with the harpoon, the oar, the knife, the short club. The sharks eat all but the bones of the fish. Half dead with exhaustion, he brings the skeleton home and makes his way to bed and dreams of his golden time.In the novel, Hemingway creates an immortal artistic figure, Santiago, a representative of Code Hero. Santiago is a poor fisherman who lives alone and has finally lost all will to live. Every day is the same dull, monotonous routine. His wife had died; his only comfort is a boy who is forbidden to fish determination in holding onto a gargantuan fish, Santiago is plunged into the adventure of his life, but will it bring meaning to his days? But it is the spirit of Code Hero to support him fighting and living.The chief point about Santiago is that he behaves perfectly and honorably, with great courage and endurance. While losing to the sharks the giant fish he has caught, he comes with the message that while man may grow old, and be wholly down on his luck, he can still dare to stick to the rules, persist when he is destroyed, and thus by the manner of his losing to win his victory. I also want to point out that the novel not only describes the fight between human and nature and fate but also indicates Hemingway’s Code Hero getting to its summit. Although the old man in the novel is weak and in the grim fate of pressure, he also shows the spirit of Code Hero.This paper will analyze the image of the old man, reveal the characteristics of Code Hero, and advocate the spirit of never giving up.Chapter One The Background Information1.1 About the AuthorErnest Hemingway (1896-1961) was a novelist and short story writer who became one of the best-known American authors in his century. He was famous for his experience and unique artistic style all over the world. According to The Old Man and the Sea (1952), Hemingway won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954.Hemingway centers his novels on personal experience and affections. According to his works The Sun Also Rises (1926) he became the representative writer of “the Lost Generation”. He could not cope with post-war America, and therefore he introduced a new type of character in writing called the “Code Hero”. Hemingway is known to focus his novels around code heroes who struggle with the mixture of their tragic faults and the surrounding environment.Moreover, Hemingway’s creation not only originated from life true to life but superior to life. Hemingway is a realism writer, consequently, copied something mechanically. He was also a master of turning reality into fiction, representing not only what had actually happened but also what logically might happen. He didn’t lay special emphasis by his inner beauty. So Santiago leaved an indelible impression to us. Hemingway once said that The Old Man and the Sea could be in a longer novel. In the novel, he could describe many other villagers and how they made a lively life, how they were educated, how they bore children, and so on. But he omitted all those, only describing, the old man and the process of fishing the Marlin and fighting the sharks. Besides, Hemingway not only reflected real life but also expressed himself in his work. Or, we can say, Hemingway’s creation is superior to life.Santiago showed the spirit “undefeated”which Hemingway has. So Hemingway’s life attitude has been widely recognized and imitated all over the world. Hemingway is worthy to be called the Code Hero: he was born in an intensely middle-class family, Chicago, Oak Park. His father, who was a doctor, devoted to hunting, fishing and influenced on Hemingway greatlywhen he was three years old, his father gave him a fishing pole for his birthday gift. When he was ten years old, he got a hunting gun. As a boy of fourteen, he was encouraged to practice boxing. Hemingway fought in the two world wars: in the first war as a medical soldier, and the second as a reporter. He took part in World War I as an honorary lieutenant in the Red Cross. He went overseas as an ambulance driver. He was wounded many times and experienced at least 12 operations which took out 227 pieces of artillery shells. Besides, he suffered a great deal from aviation accident: his eyes injured while hunting and in African jungle he was in two airplane accidents in the spaces of two days. All these didn’t defeat Hemingway. He was such a man who turned down defeat. When he was old he was poor in health. Still he indulged himself in fishing, hunting and bull-fighting from which he pursued thrilling scenes and enjoyed himself in fighting.However there is a question, “Is Hemingway timid and pessimistic, so that he is committed suicide?” The answer, of course, is “No”, Hemingway suffered much illness and injury and he committed suicide at last. But his suicide cannot show he was timid and pessimistic. On the contrary, he set upon image of braver because he regarded his illness and injury as his “enemy”such as the sharks. He used his life as a weapon, in order to get rid of his “enemy”, he would rather choose to die. He and his “enemy” ended in common ruin.1.2 The A uthor’s View on the Novel and the Old ManHemingway defined the Code Hero as “a man with lives correctly, following the ideals of honor, courage and endurance in a world that is sometimes chaotic, often stressful, and always painful” (The American Tradition in Literature, Page78). He showed, in his famous phrase for it, “grace under pressure”. The Code Hero measures himself by how well they handle the difficult situations that life throws at him. In the end the Code Hero will lose because we are all mortal, but the true measure is how a person faces death. The code believes in “Nada”, a Spanish word meaning nothing. Along with this, there is nothing after life.Hemingway’s view of human nature is that happiness is rare and is found within a man and not in his outside circumstance or surroundings. Hemingway illustrates this in three ways. First, he portrays the human nature of Santiago, the main character, as being one of humility and compassion, full of strength and pride. He is shown not as a gleefully happy man, but one whomeets life with a serene, quiet resilience. Second, Santiago’s fellow villagers are shown as shallow, with a narrow view of life compared to his. Their focus on appearances is in sharp contrast to Santiago’s focus on intrinsic values. Third, it will be shown that his rare brand of happiness comes from within.To Hemingway, the dignity of a man should be so important to that man that he is willing to die for it. Most likely that is the reason Santiago went deep into that sea, following the Marlin, tearing the skin off his hands as he held on to that line. This is also why Santiago risked his life catching the Marlin. Finally, he caught the marlin, he was proud of himself that he so extremely wanted. When the sharks attack the fish, it is as same as the sharks attacking his dignity. This is mostly why an elderly man, armed only with crude weapons would fight many sharks. As the sharks tear apart the Marlin bit by bit, it is as they are tearing apart his dignity bit by bit. That is why Santiago found the courage to fight off sharks to protect his dignity. Hemingway shows that a man will not risk his life for his dignity, then what is in that life to live for? Even though the old man lost the battle with the sharks at the end, “his obtunding and persistent determination makes him as a perfect Code Hero”(The American Tradition in Literature, Page82). He had done everything a person possibly could have. Through Santiago Hemingway told us that we are wholly down on our luck and destroyed in the end. Then we should conduct ourselves just like the old fisherman, not be pessimistic and disappointed but to keep on struggling until we get what we want. That is, undefeated spirit is most important. This is also the normal principle of Hemingway.I think Santiago in The Old Man and the Sea was Hemingway himself. In The Old Man and the Sea, Hemingway was fond of him and sang high praise of him. He placed his personal experience on the old man and reflected some of his innate characters. Hemingway merged himself with Santiago in thoughts and feelings. The spirit of Santiago lasted and re-embodied on Hemingway. Throughout Santiago, the old man cannot accept the fact that he is getting old and that he slowly casting his strength. Hemingway in reality was having the same problems. He was getting old and things he once did, he no longer could do. Just as Hemingway could not accept that fact, neither could his character: Santiago. In fact, Hemingway utilized his life to show that he was an unconquerable “old lion”.Chapter Two The Four Characteristics of Code Hero2.1 Everlasting Hope for the FutureOne may lose the battle in life, but he can achieve a moral significance after his courage, bravery and ability to endure have been tested. Because hope does not die, power is not off. Even if the hope is slim, we also must try our best to fight for it. The author believes that, hope makes the old man to fight with the Marlin, fight with the sharks and fight with his own will.At the beginning of the novel, the author portrays the image of the old man. “The old man was thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of the neck. The brown blotched of the benevolent skin cancer the sun brings from its reflection on the tropic sea were on his cheeks. The blotches ran well down the sides of his cords. But none of these scars were flesh. They were as old as erosions in a fishless desert”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page1). When we read here, we maybe show our sympathy to the old man and think that he cannot do anything. Further more, Santiago’s life is not in good condition. He lives in a shack in which there is only a bed, one chair and a place on the dirty floor to cook with charcoal. He is so poor that had no “pot of yellow rice and fish to eat”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page2). While sailing for fishing, he has only a bottle of water with him. He leads a lonely life. His wife died leaving him no children.Except a boy he once taught to fish, he has few friends. It seems that few people care him. What is more, he is a failure in catching fish. For eighty-four days he fished in a skiff without taking a fish. Eighty-four days is a long period of time. Eighty-four days without a fish is very unfortunate for a fisherman. For a weather-beaten, poverty-stricken and lonely old man like Santiago, the misery might be beyond anyone’s intolerance. For a man can tolerate failure, but can’t tolerate continuous failure. Too much failure will sure defeat a man even with strong will. For this reason, we may arrive at the conclusion that Santiago will give up fishing. But to our surprise, the color of the character is brighter in the following, “everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated” (TheOld Man and the Sea, Page2). The eyes of the old man are not stuffy and he has the eyes those “were the same color as the sea” that only the young man has, which shows the old man has a young heart as the young. “H e fitted the rope lashings of the oars onto the thole pins and, leaning forward against the thrust of the blades in the water, he began to row out of the harbor in the dark”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page18). The old man firmly insists that he will not always be unfortunate, and ships into the deep sea without looking back.What makes the old man make such a decision under the difficult condition? Through the man, the author points out—even though life is harder, even the wretched standpoint, “B ut who knows? Maybe today. Every day is a new day”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page22). This is the hope for the future, never giving up hope for the future.The author further strengthens the character of the old man—the Code Hero. When the sharks have eaten half of the Marlin, “it is silly not to hope, he thought. Besides I believe it is a sin. Do not think about sin, he thought”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page90). “he forked the tiller free from the rudder and beat and chopped with it, holding it down again and again…” Finally, he saw one shark came against the head of this fish, and he knew all was over. He swung the tiller across the shark’s head where the jaws were caught in the heaviness of the fish’s head which would not tear. He swung it once and twice and again. He heard the tiller break and he lunged at the shark with the splintered burr. He felt it go in and knowing it was sharp he drove it in again. The shark let go and rolled away. That was the last shark of the pack that came. There was nothing more for them to eat.At last, he sailed back into harbor exhaustedly, with a skeleton of his fish and a broken skiff. “S he’s good, he thought. She is sound and not harmed in any way except for the tiller. That is easily replaced” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page109). All what the old man sees are good side. He failed, however, “he is not ‘defeated’, despite the fact that has been ‘beaten’, as he himself admits, by his violation of the sacred code. He pronounces that nothing ’beat him really and that his only fault was that he ‘went out too far’”(Elegant Demeanor under Heavy Pressure, Page90).2.2 Daring Spirit for Facing the ChallengeThe process of the old man’s fishing is just like the human’s whole life. Everyone in the world lives a hard life and has to face the vast and vast sea, the greedy sharks with sharp tooth, and along with himself is just a boat and his soul that support him live in the world. Facing with the respected but fearsome nature, the human being is so insignificant. However the author has raised such a question: by what the human being should have to live in the work? At the same time, the author answered this question by portraying the way that the old man faces the sea and deals with the sharks alone.“J ust then, watching his lines, he saw one of the projecting green sticks dip sharply.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page31) A big fish is hooked. At the first round of contest, the old man suppresses his own desire and waits the fish to eat the hook quietly. The old man’s silent sounds reflect his strong desire from the deep heart. “E at them, fish. Eat them. Pleased eat them. How fresh they are and …”“‘Come down,’ the old man said aloud. ‘Make another turn. Just smell them. Aren't they lovely? Eat them good now and then there is the tuna. Don’t be shy, fish. Eat them.’”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page31-32) With patient the old man faces the silent before the battle.Next is the contest of the strength. The old man “swing with each arm alternately on the cord with all the strength of his arm and the pivoted weight of his body.” But “nothing happened. The fish just moved away slowly and the old man could not raise him an inch.” The fish is so big that can pull away the boat to the wider deep sea. At one side is a very old man, and at the other side is unfathomable sea and unknown injuries, the readers can imagine the picture. Hegel ever said, “The great personality and the degree of firmness can only be measured by those of the opponents.”(The Image in Hemingway’s ‘The Old Man and the Sea’, Page24) The old man’s admirable courage is also demonstrated by the opponent—the sea and the sharks.On the returning voyage the old man suffers greater challenge: the Marlin’s blood draws the sharks group. The author uses much ink to portray the sharks “wide, flattened, shovel-pointed heads now and their white-tipped wide pectoral fins. They were hateful sharks, bad-smelling, scavengers as well as killers, and when they were hungry they would bite at an oar or the rudderof a boat. It was these sharks that would cut the turtle’s legs and flippers off when the turtles were asleep on the surface, and they would hit a man in the water, if they were hungry…” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page93) These portrays aim to describe the old man’s spirit. The harder the fish and the sharks are to defeat, the taller the old man’s image is.The essence of the old man is weak. “Unless sharks come,” he said out. “If sharks come, God pity him and me.”“I wish it had been a dream now and that I had never hooked the fish and was alone in bed on the newspapers.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page89) But “man is not made defeated,”he said, “A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page89) “‘A y,’the old man said. ‘Galanos. Come on, galanos.’”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page93) “‘Fight them,’he said, ‘I’ll fight them until I die.’”“N ow they have beaten me, he thought. I am too old to club sharks to death. But I will try it as long as I have the oars and the short club and the tiller.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page97) The old man challenges the age, and challenges the physical limit. “H e felt faint again now but he held on the great fish all the strain that he could. I moved him, he thought. Maybe this time I can get him over. Pull, hands, he thought. Hold up, legs. Last for me, head. Last for me. You never went. This time I will pull him over.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page78) These words and behaviors all originate from the old man’s desire to the victory and strength. The old man can talk the baseball with the child happily. And he often dreams of the lions, which can express this point strongly. Lions, in the western world, were considered as a symbol of strength and power.When the old man was young, his spirit of daring to be the number one has been accumulated. The author portrays that the old man played the hand game with a great Negro from Casablanca who was the strongest man on the docks, “they had gone one day and one night with their elbows on a chalk line on the table and their forearms straight up and their hands gripped tight. Each one was trying to force the other’s hand down onto the table.”“H e had unleashed his effort and forced the hand of the negro down and down until it rested on the wood. ” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page57) “H e decided that he could beat anyone if he wanted to badly enough and …”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page59) It’s no doubt that, the age of being full of energy and power has gone and the old man is not stronger than ever before. But from the novel we can see that the old man is so eager to regain the power. He pursues what is called aeternal thing—dignity of the human.2.3 Heroic Behavior in the Actual BattleDefinitely a midget in spiritual couldn’t become an actual giant. If a person has strong will but he takes no actual action, he is still a midget. Santiago doesn’t only have spiritual power, he also prove his power and strength by his action. By describing the process of his fishing the Marlin and fighting with the sharks, Hemingway shows us another characteristic of Santiago as a code hero. That is, to display great tenacity and to show the death—defying spirit in the actual battle.With his exceeding self-confidence he gets rid of his bad luck and catches the fish which is longer than his skiff. The Marlin is immense and strong. Santiago and the Marlin, neither side is ready to yield. The great fish is also a remarkable and respectable fish. The Marlin is actually towing the skiff behind him. The fish moves steadily and they travels slowly on the calm water. “The contest is to see who can endure longer than the other. By this time Santiago’s straw hat cuts his forehead and he has been without nourishment for hours. But he just drinks a little water, then he rested sitting on the sitting on the unstopped mast and sail and tried not to think but only to endure”(The American Tradition in Literature, Page117). In the old man’s attitude to the fish there is the type of gallantry and heroism that Hemingway admires. This gallantry, this heroism, is paralleled by the stoical heroism of the great Marlin, like his opponent, neither gives up. In addition, the force exerted by the old man is exactly counter—balanced by the natural force being exerted at this time by the huge hidden fish. Just because the Marlin is as strong minded as Santiago himself, Santiago begins to love and respect the Marlin. Although the Marlin has swallowed the bait, he doesn’t admit his failure. “The fish made a surge that pulled him down on his face and made a cut below his eye. The blood ran down his cheek a little way. But is coagulated and dried before it reached his chin and he worked his way back to the how and rested against the wood.” At this time if Santiago cut the line and lets the fish go, he can get rid of the embracement, but that also means Santiago fails in the battle. Santiago does n’t choose such a solution. He even doesn’t think of it. When he is thirsty, he takes some water; when he is sleepy, he lies forward cramming himself against the line with all of his body, putting all hisweight onto his right hand. Even his left hand cramps and his right hand is cut by the line, he just tries his best to endure. From the old fisherman’s point of view, any pain does not matter to a man. He makes resolution to stay with the Marlin until he is dead.Then Santiago meets with a more terrible disaster. The sharks spring on the Marlin and want to take his prize away. The old fisherman doesn’t fold his hands and wait for destruction. Instead, he bravely determines to fight them until he dies. Actually the old man’s head is clear and good now. He is full of resolution to fight with them until the sharks. But he knows that there is little hope for him to win since he is so weary and so tired. He knows the failure is inevitable. But he should behave as a man in the battle field. With his blood mashed hands he rams the harpoon down onto the biggest shark, but the shark takes his harpoon away. So he lashes his knife to the butt of one of the oars. Then he takes up the oar with the knife blade snaps. In the dark, groups of sharks spring onto the Marlin. He knows that his triumph is too good to last. But on the other hand, “man is not made for defeat,” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page89) this declaration clearly presents his characteristic as a Code Hero. “This fidelity to what he believes is part of his quixotic gallantry.” In facing so many sharks, Santiago doesn’t show any fear. He pulls himself together and fights the sharks more fiercely.2.4 Loneliness Endurance in the Long FightingThe author doesn’t tell us the origins of the old man, nobody knows where he comes from, nor does no one know whether he has relatives. “He was an old man who fished alone in a skiff,”only a child companies with him. But after 40 days, the child is also going away ordered by his parents. The old man has to face the sea and the sharks. But these are not the most fearful thing, the greatest fear is loneliness. The feeling of loneliness is more fearful than loneliness itself. The only way the old man resolves it is to talk to himself.The author has many portrays that the old man is talking to himself:At the beginning, “he looked across the sea and knew how alone he was now.”But “he could see the prisms in the deep dark water and the line stretching ahead and the strange undulation of the calm. The clouds were building up now for the trade wind and he looked ahead and saw a flight of wild ducks etching themselves against the sky over the water, then blurring,then etching again,” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page22)“H e did not remember when he had first started to talk aloud when he was by himself. He had sung when he was by himself in the old days and he had sung at night, Sometimes when he was alone steering on his watch in the smacks or in the turtle boats. He had probably started to talk aloud, when alone, when the boy had left. But he did not remember.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page29) These portrays tell us that most of the old man’s life comes with loneliness. If the boy was here, the old man is happy. When he is alone, he just talks to himself or sings loudly to make fun. “If the others heard me talking out loud they would think that I am crazy,” he said aloud. “But since I am not crazy, I do not care.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page30) The old man even says to the bird “Stay at my house if you like, bird”, “I am sorry I cannot hoist the sail and take you in with the small breeze that is rising. But I am with a friend.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page44)In the common time, the old man is always with the boy. But this time, the old man sails alone. When struggling with the Marlin, the old man also says to himself, “I wish I had the boy.”(The Old Man and the Sea, Page41). “I wish I had the boy,” the word appears many times in the work. I don’t think the old man hope there was someone who can help him. “H e decided that he could beat anyone if he wanted to badly enough.” (The Old Man and the Sea, Page59) What he is looking forward to is that someone can see his experience, his courage and his ability. The old man is eager to be identified, and he pursues of the self-satisfaction.Through talking to himself, he overcomes the loneliness, and “he knew no man was ever alone on the sea.” (Elegant Demeanor under Heavy Pressure, Page31)。

老人与海英文读书笔记1After reading the novel The Old Man and The Sea, I was inpressed by the story.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 process of striving, however, we can see a man of indomitable spirit.老人与海英文读书笔记2On summer vacation of this year, I studied in novel " old man and sea " of Hemingway , famous writer of U.S.A .I admire the old fishermans will in the novel very much, he lets me understand that a person must have unremitting spirit, could succeed . What the novel is described is an old fisherman almost the sixty years old, when go to sea and fish alone once, have angled to a big fish, but can not draw. After tough fisherman and fish have socialized for a few days, just find this is a big Malins fish which exceeds several times of ones own fishing boat, though know perfectly well that it is very difficult to win , does not give up yet. Because big Malin fish fishlike smell of wound attract odd herds of shark vie for the food again later, but the old man is still unwilling to give up like this, stress the tight encirclement finally , take the large fish back to fishing port , let other fishmen admire it endlessly. The old fisherman thinks that as I read: "It is really too close from here to coast, perhaps there are bigger fish in the farther place ……" When,admire very much because this old fisherman in the persons, because play not for some fishing he already at this moment I, but he is not satisfied with the existing state of affairs , but advance towards greater goal. Seeing us again, meet some little difficulties at ordinary times , all of us complain bitterly. We are the future of the motherland, should be as ambitious as this old man, go to pursue well , greater goal. Read as me " big Malin fish is it enclose light fishing boat move about , is it get mast to twine cable fast to begin, old man right hand hold steel fork high , jump out in a flash , affording to try ones best above water in it, a sound of wail has finished the life of the loud fish, it floats on the surface of water silently ……"When,the I one heart is too fall like pieces of stone not big.I admire that kind of fearing of the old man at all , unremitting spirit very much, though know rivals strength is very strong , but he has not shrunk back at all , meets the difficulty. Just because there is this kind of spirit, the old fisherman has obtained the victory of the trial of strength of this life and death. We should study the old fishermans spirit too in life, do the thing and is not afraid of the difficulty , could achieve success . Read big blood offensive smell of fish smell one shark , fall over each other to visit to vie for the food, left hand of old man pull a muscle just, he can only use right hand, can weapon attacked to used for defend oneself with stick , mouth of swordfish that catch everything, and has driven away this herd of shark finally. But big meat of fish take into big half already, but old man criticize ones own left hand " when the work this when have a rest " humorously also, I am subdued by old mans optimistic spirit too. In life, some losses are unavoidable, we should treat the optimistic attitude , cant worry about petty gain or loss . Finally, the novel sees with a teenager that old fisherman has 18 feet of big long Malins fish totally in the tolerance , the ones that have described this fish are enormous again, prove that old fishermans difficulty overcome is big, than ordinary. Old fishermans spirit that makes great efforts to struggle fearless of danger and difficulty that the novel has been extolled, we should be like him too, can t be satisfied with the current situation , should be positive upwards, it should be unremitting to do anything, it must not give up halfway to meeting difficulty should meet the difficulty.Only in this way, we could obtain greater success and victory . 老人与海英文读书笔记3I read a famous American writer Ernest Hemingways novel "the old man and the sea", very admire kept the will of the novel, he let me know how a man must have perseverance, can succeed.The man is a novel depicts a near the old fisherman, in a single out to sea fishing, caught a big fish, but pull not up.

Later and because the big marlin wound fish smell drew a few group of sharks rob food, but the old man still would not so give up, eventually beckoning, the big fish back to the fishing port, let the other fishermen to admire.老人与海英文读书笔记4The Old Man and the Sea is one of Hemingways most enduring works and may very well become one of the true classics of this generation. It played a great part in his winning the Pulizer Prize in 1953 and the 1954 Novel Prize for Literature and confirmed his power and presence in the literary world. Hemingway is also one of my favorite writers. Besides The Old Man And the Sea, I have read some of his other works, such as The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms and The Snow of Kilimanijaro. But The Old Man and the Sea is the one that left the deepest impression on me.I first read this book when I was in my fifteens. And now I remember it just as well as if I had read it yesterday.Pride and Prejudice is a chefdoeuvre. My first impression of this story was from screen.Its long long ago, maybe before I can read english books. I dont remember which movie edition I had seen. But I was impressed by the music, the scenery and the costume. I was veryfavor of a section of music in its balls. Its pretty brisk, liked a wonderful song of a bird. Regarding to the characters, I liked Elizabeth, the heroine,though I didnt think shes beautiful. But shes smart. However, I didnt pay much attention to the plot. I thought its so long that it made me impatient and bored. By now, I havent read the whole story in English or its Chinese version, either. I owe it to my prejudice.In fact, I didnt understand the story at that time. I didnt know why it called Pride and Prejudice. Of course someone was pride, but I didnt find where s the prejudice. I thought its normal, the way people treated each other in that. I considered prejudice would be very disgusting. But to the movie everthing was OK in my minds, except its length. Now, I think I have understood more about it. Im a prejudiced person so I cant find wheres wrong. I merely like to do the things I like.

And it changed my life.Q: You were only nine when you climbed a grade (攀岩难度路线). What do you make of that?A: That’s one of the most unforgettable moments of my life. It’s hard to explain how significant (意义重大的) achieving a grade 31 at nine is. It requires physical strength that most kids don’t have. When I climbed as grade 31, I never thought of it as being unachievable—it was just a challenge. And it was the moment when I felt anything was possible. I think of this when something starts to feel impossible now.Q: Why do you like climbing so much?A: I tried many sports but I never got that feeling of freedom that climbing can give to me. I’m in complete control of my mind. I can only feel the movement of my body. When I’m finally able to reach the top, it is a feeling like no other.Q: What advice do you have for new climbers?A: Make a big goal and just go for it. I’d never be in this position if I step back. Go beyond expectations and continue to believe it’s possible even if it’s never been done before. And this mindset (思维模式) can be used throughout your life.41．What did Angie like to do when she was a kid?42．What does the underlined word “it” refer to?43．Why does achieving a grade 31 seem impossible for a nine-year-old?44．How did Angie feel after she had successfully climbed a grade 31?45．What made Angie successful?
