the Old Man and the Sea is one of Hemingway’s 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.
It’s long long ago, maybe before I can read english books.I don’t remember which movie edition I had seen.But I was impressed by the music, the scenery and the costume.I was very favor of a section of music in its balls.It’s pretty brisk, liked a wonderful song of a bird.Regarding to the characters, I liked Elizabeth, the heroine,though I didn’t think she’s beautiful.But she’s smart.However, I didn’t pay much attention to the plot.I thought it’s so long that it made me impatient and bored.By now, I haven’t read the whole story in English or its Chinese version, either.I owe it to my prejudice.
In fact, I didn’t understand the story at that time.I didn’t know why it called Pride and Prejudice.Of course someone was pride, but I didn’t find where’ s the prejudice.I thought it’s 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.I’m a prejudiced person so I can’t find where’s wrong.I merely like to do the things I like.Everytime I meet somebody or something,my thinking about he or it all depends on my foregone experience and my mood of the time.

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."

《老人與海》英文讀后感4
This summer vacation, I read a book called The Old Man and the Sea, which mainly tells about an old man who spent all his years fishing alone on the sea. Once he fell into a big fish, but on the way back, he met a group of sharks. The old man fought with the sharks with all his strength, and the sharks ate all the meat he could eat. As a result, the old man dragged back only a big fish skeleton
In life, when we encounter difficulties, we may rise to them; But they will also be afraid of difficulties. For example, Aunt Zhang Haidi, her feet were disabled when she was young, but she did not give in to setbacks, but challenged them with a positive, optimistic and confident attitude. She pasted words on the bedside, wall, kitchen every day... Through Aunt Zhang Haidi's unremitting efforts, she finally overcame setbacks, and won honor, making her own contribution to the motherland
After reading this book, I know that no matter what difficulties I will encounter in the future, I should face them positively, face them and be a brave and tenacious person.

《老人與�！酚⑽淖x后感6
In recent days, I have finished reading the book "the old man and the sea". And get a lot of insights from it. The owner of this book is a fisherman named Santiago who lives in Cuba. He fought a huge Marlin in a fishing trip, and finally came home frustrated and defeated. "A man is not born to be defeated. You can kill him, but you cant defeat him." This sentence not only praises Santiagos indomitable spirit, but also gives me a lot of inspiration. "The cold sea wind is blowing the horn ceaselessly, and there is a salty blood in the sea wind." In such a bad environment, Santiago is able to persevere with tenacity, which is actually a kind of tough spirit. It is with this character that Santiago can retreat in the sharks and bad weather and go home safely. We are also like this in our life. Many things cant be done smoothly. We need to rely on tenacious perseverance and courage to support ourselves, and finally we can reap the fruits of success. Like when we take an exam, if we dont recite knowledge, how can we get better results in the exam? What should we do if we dont finish the homework assigned by the teacher on time and we dont have a solid grasp of the knowledge? Only with tenacity and hard work can we embroider our most unique style on the stage of junior high school. This is what I learned from the old man and the sea. Sprint for your final exam this semester!

Since reading this book, I know less than their own, not because of learning one or two do not go well and lose confidence, but more test well, the more to be a good test.
From now on, I do not care what kind of difficulties encountered, we must face with confidence, insisted in the end, and never flinched. I would like to thank the book, thanks to it so that I have learned so much knowledge, it let me know how to thank so many reason, let me know for its own lack of timely and correct their own shortcomings, so that I become a socially useful people. Sharks may be seen as a blow to eat our success and happiness.
But as the child said: It does not beat you, it does not. A real strong, can only be destroyed can not be beat. Solely, which is Old Man and the Sea tells us.
《老人與�！酚⑽淖x后感10
An ordinary fisherman, an ordinary big fish. In the vast sea, with intelligence and endurance, it opened a seemingly ordinary and extraordinary duel. This book is called The Old Man and the Sea. It is not thick, but it teaches me a lot of knowledge.
The fisherman was named Santiago. He didn't catch fish for 80 or 40 days before fishing. On the eighty fifth day, he took his boat and went fishing. His kung fu paid off. Finally, he caught a fish. But the fish's strength is so strong that it drives the boat. In this way, a battle of intelligence and endurance begins!
After a long time, although he only brought back the skeleton of a big fish, it was amazing enough.
A person is not born to be defeated. You can try your best to destroy him, but you can't defeat her. This sentence leads to the theme. Yes, I sympathize with him, but I admire him more. At the same time, I also want to learn from his optimism and persistence. I believe that sometimes if you wait for something, the result may not be as bad as you think.
After reading this book, I learned a lot, and I believe you will learn a lot. I hope I can share it with you in the future.
《老人與�！酚⑽淖x后感11
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 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 compared 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. 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 .
《老人與海》英文讀后感12
The filling of
I read
Santiago was old just as Hemingway said “Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.” He think every day is a new day. No matter how old he is. He said “It’s better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready.”
Santiago was poor; he had nothing except a little boat and harpoon. But he said “Now is no time to think of what you do not have. Think of what you can do with what there is.” Santiago was alone. Mandolin can not go to sea with him because of his parents. He catches fishes alone. He fights with sharks alone. He can talk to nobody except himself. No one will help him. But even though he faced hungry; weary and difficulty alone, he does not give up.
Somebody said Santiago was a failure. Because at last he said he wishes that it had been a dream and the boy cried for him can really approve it. In this way I think Santiago was a lucky person. Because he still had Mandolin. The boy loved him and pitied him. If Mandolin had no money his own, he begged or stole to make sure that Santiago had enough to eat and fresh baits for his lines. The old man accepts his kindness with humility that was like a quiet kind of pride. I think Santiago is a hero and he is not a failure. Because catch fish is a part of his life and it is the memory of his mind and he catch a really big fish back at last. The value of his life was completely reflected in the way he catch fish. He is the real winner in his own world. After I think about this book and Santiago. I realized that I’m not brave enough. I can not stay hopeful when I face laugh and indifferent. And I don’t have enough courage to do what I want to do. I’m so afraid of this world. I’m so afraid of the people’s words who speak it behind my back. I’m so cowardly and that’s the reason I always lose. Now I know what to do. Don’t mind others. Be myself. I need possess the quality of reason and shay cheerful and undefeated. Be kind and happy. Be strong and optimistic.
《老人與�！酚⑽淖x后感13
Our life is full of all kinds of difficulties and frustrations, but we must use a confident and brave heart and correct attitude to meet the difficulties on the road ahead, so that even if we do not succeed, we are also a winner.
The old man in The Old Man and the Sea is a man who has experienced difficulties. He did not give up in the face of the difficulty of not catching a fish for nearly three months, but worked hard with a correct attitude and hope. On the eighty fifth day, he found a big fish.
Although he was exhausted and his eyes blurred, he still fought with the big fish for three days and nights, and finally caught him when he was almost giving up. It had already succeeded, but unfortunately, it was suddenly attacked by sharks on the return journey. Finally, the hard work was swallowed by sharks, leaving only one fish bone and returning empty handed.
Although he did not succeed, he is a deserved winner, which is exactly the same in life. Sometimes, as long as we have fought hard and bravely accepted the challenge, even if we did not succeed, we do not need to regret.
Face life with a correct and optimistic attitude, bravely accept the challenges of life, and never say die!
《老人與�！酚⑽淖x后感14
The old man and the sea "is a novel written by American writer Hemingway, an old fisherman named Santiago eighty-four consecutive days did not catch a fish, although he has grey-haired, but he refused 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 sea 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 deeply moved by the old man, and some people may think that the old man's 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 seemed 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 perseverance 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 persevered, 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 second 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 second 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 accomplished, there must be a long process, through the long process, even if not successful, but they also can get to it.
《老人與海》英文讀后感15
Santiago, an old man about sixty years old, fished alone with nothing caught in eighty four days. No one would like to talk to him for his extremely bad luck except a boy who always came to help after the day and finally left to another boat under the pressure of his parents. Ignoring the contempt from the younger fishermen and sympathy from the older, on the morning of the 85th day, the old man started his fishing with determination and rowed his old boat very far in the sea where he believed there would be big fish. Fortunately the old man met with a big fish as he had wished and finally defeated the big Marlin with two days and nights struggle after overcoming great difficulties. But more unfortunately there were many sharks coming after his boat attracted by the smell of the blood of the big Marlin. After death-and-life struggle, when he finally got rid of the sharks coming after the boat, the big Marlin was bare skeleton.
The Old Man and the Sea tells a frustrated experience of the old man who fishes alone in the sea in plain languages. Through the simple lines, a “tough guy” image is shaped and heroism is praised. The whole story starts with a peaceful beginning which is some trivial of life and talking with the boy, and suddenly turns to its climax which is the dangerous fighting with the big fish and sharks alone in the sea, and ends with the old man’s return with the bare skeleton of the big Marlin. Though the boy only appears at the beginning and the ending in the novel, he plays an indispensible role, it is his inspiring and supporting that helps the old man to be “graceful under heavy pressure”。
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.
