When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.But when I read it in English,I really gain something new both in the way of expression and the spirit it shows to us.May be different ages to read the same book we will learn different things from it.At least, for my part, that is true.
Firstly,I would like to review some information about this book.Such as the background,major characters and the topic of it.
The Old Man and the Sea is a story by Ernest Hemingway, written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952. It was the last major work of fiction to be produced by Hemingway and published in his lifetime. One of his most famous works, it centers upon Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who struggles with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream.
The Old Man and the Sea served to reinvigorate Hemingway's literary reputation and prompted a reexamination of his entire body of work. The novella was initially received with much popularity; it restored many readers' confidence in Hemingway's capability as an author. Its publisher, Scribner's, on an early dust jacket, called the novella a "new classic," and many critics favorably compared it with such works as William Faulkner's "The Bear" and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick.
This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the man’s braveness and persistence.
In this book, in order to suggest the profundity of the old man’s sacrifice and the glory that derives from it, Hemingway purposefully likens Santiago to Christ, who, according to Christian theology, gave his life for the greater glory of humankind. Crucifixion imagery is the most noticeable way in which Hemingway creates the symbolic parallel between Santiago and Christ. When Santiago’s palms are first cut by his fishing line, the reader cannot help but think of Christ suffering his stigmata. Later, when the sharks arrive, Hemingway portrays the old man as a crucified martyr, saying that he makes a noise similar to that of a man having nails driven through his hands. Furthermore, the image of the old man struggling up the hill with his mast across his shoulders recalls Christ’s march toward Calvary. Even the position in which Santiago collapses on his bed—face down with his arms out straight and the palms of his hands up—brings to mind the image of Christ suffering on the cross. Hemingway employs these images in the final pages of the novella in order to link Santiago to Christ, who exemplified transcendence by turning loss into gain, defeat into triumph, and even death into renewed life.
The major characters in this book are also vivid and lively.
Santiago?,the old man of the novella’s title, Santiago is a Cuban fisherman who has had an extended run of bad luck. Despite his expertise, he has been unable to catch a fish for eighty-four days. He is humble, yet exhibits a justified pride in his abilities. His knowledge of the sea and its creatures, and of his craft, is unparalleled and helps him preserve a sense of hope regardless of circumstance.
The marlin?,Santiago hooks the marlin, which we learn at the end of the novella measures eighteen feet, on the first afternoon of his fishing expedition. Manolin?,a boy presumably in his adolescence, Manolin is Santiago’s apprentice and devoted attendant. The old man first took him out on a boat when he was merely five years old. Due to Santiago’s recent bad luck, Manolin’s parents have forced the boy to go out on a different fishing boat. Manolin, however, still cares 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 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 .
Some time ago read "the old man and the sea", "the old man and the sea" is Hemingway written in Cuba in 1951, a medium-length novel, was published in 1952. The old man and the sea is one of Hemingway's most famous works, he tells the story of an old man fishing on the sea all the year round. Once he caught a big fish, but he had met on the way back to groups of sharks, the old man work hard and struggle, but failed in the end, the shark ate all of the meat, the old man dragged a pair of big fish skeleton back.
Novels of all time is very compact, before and after only four days: the day before at sea, the old man returned from the sea, with reference to play around the characters one by one, the relationship between the group and the old man, a love he, with his children learn fishing manolin; A pair of very selfish parents; A group of respected him, but always can't understand his fishing; A concerned about his hotel owners. The old man lived in such a character groups, by contrast, he had a significantly different with others, he is very optimistic, open-minded, is an experienced, the industrious and brave and confident, adventurous, dee* loves the life of a simple Cuban fisherman. At the same time, also can produce the hub-and-spoke structure clue clear, central focus highlight, the effect of the story is concise and lively.
The old man said: "a man is not born to defeat, you can destroy it, but can't beat him." Such never-say-die spirit inspires us, we should not learn this spirit?
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 dee* 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 loneliness 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 success and happiness. 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.

I have read many books, which I learned a lot of knowledge, let me know a lot of truth in life, including a book, let me experience a deep, it is a famous writer Ernest Hemingway wrote, "Hits."
"Hits" This book talked about such a story, old fisherman Santiago de Cuba consecutive 84 days did not catch the fish, was another loser as a fisherman, but he was persistent, and finally caught a big marlin large Marlins his boat dragged on for three days at sea, exhausted, was tied to the boat he was killed on one side, and then Return Journey repeatedly been shark attacks, he has exhausted all means to counterattack. Back to Hong Kong only the head and a fish tail spine. Although the fish have bitten gone, but what can not destroy the will of his bravery. This book reveals to us a truth: people are not born to fail, and a person can be destroyed, but can not be defeated.
Before I do anything as long as there is one point does not work well, they will retreat, and sometimes even say a few words dejected to say. In learning, I have a few tests as long as there is not very good there will be no confidence that their getting good grades. "Hits", the hero fighting with the shark, shark harpoon was taken away, he put the knife blade tied to tie chaos. Knife broke, he used truncheons. Batons have lost, and he used the rudder to e to play. This book reveals the truth, not to explain a man no matter what my greatest fear is the lack of confidence. Confidence is like a motor car, is a human motivation. If you do one thing with the confidence, you mean half the battle. The hero in this book are full of confidence and perseverance, not exactly what I indispensable?
Since reading this book, I know that his lack of learning is no longer due to a loss of confidence in the two do not go well, but more poorly in an exam, the more to be a good test. In the final exam the day, the morning two homework results, I do not have a certain class of students is good, but I admit defeat, but confidence that the determination to fight a turnaround. Language examinations in the afternoon, I have done every Road topics are especially careful. Sure enough, I was class of the first language examinations, total score, I am also a first.
In the future, I do not care what difficulties we encountered, we must face with confidence, persist in the end, and never retreat. I want to thank the book, for which I have learned so much, thank it for me to understand so many reasons, for it let me know his own shortings and correct their shortings in time, so I became a socially useful people.
"Hits", the lonely old fisherman Santiago has been not only be tough guy, his spiritual values embodied in the body is entirely the spirit of the ancient Greek tragedy, a modern echo. In the "Hits", the Hemingway finally for his beloved tough guy to find the soul, this soul is everlasting eternal values of mankind. Thus, in the "Hits", the tough-guy character of Santiagos fortitude has bee the novels surface. By Santiago tough-guy character to praise the eternal values of mankind, became the real theme of the novel. "Hits" and demonstrated what eternal value?
The first is peoples self-confidence. Santiago consecutive 84 days at sea, and did not catch a fish. However, the "pair of eyes, ah, like water, like blue, is happy, not depressed." Originally to follow Santiago on fishing expeditions children, spoke of his father called him to the other boat and said, : "He did not much self-confidence." "Yes." the old man said, "But we have, you say is not it?"
Santiago in self-confidence is absolute self-confidence, is not to environmental change and changes in self-confidence, it does not pare with others, self-confidence. In Santiagos philosophy of existence, even when confronted with a pole of the unlucky people can only self-confidence.
People alive, the only way to determine the necessity, that is, to death. In addition, there is no bound to what can rely on. Since the person is alive by chance, then the courage to support human life, the only confident. If we lose self-confidence, in the continuing unlucky so many days after the Santiago there is the courage and perseverance on fishing expeditions do? Therefore, people live to be confident, not self-confidence is for human consumption can not afford luxury. It is precisely because Santiago had an absolute self-confidence, he was called away to the children to express a plete tolerance and understanding. Here, Hemingway has demonstrated the link between self-confidence and tolerance. "Hits" in the main space, describing the lonely old fisherman Santiago, in the open sea and in large marlin and a variety of sharks entangled, fought for three days and three nights experience. By Hemingway fullest description, we felt the Santiago desperate struggle with the fate of the heroic and noble. Last drag home for the elderly only a 18 feet-long fish skeleton, the only plete skeleton is the head and beautiful fish tail.
From the physical point of view, elderly people fought for three days and three nights a result of failure; but the human spirit, from the persons self-confidence self-esteem, courage and destiny from the human to make every effort to struggle for victory Santiago .
After all, the true victory can only be a triumph of the spirit. No matter who made much material success, they can not win our respect and thanks. Only the spirit and the spirit of victory, it moves us, that we have to follow the elderly and children, for his tragic tears.

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 he-ro-in-e,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.
Was reading the big fish's smell of blood is smelled by one crowd of shark fish, struggled swims snatches the food, old person's left hand happen to in the convulsions, he only could use the right hand, with wooden stick, the mouth and so on all was allowed to use for the weapon self-defense which attacked, and finally expelled this crowd of shark fish.But the big fish's meat was already eaten one most, but the old person also charmingly criticized oneself the left hand " this work time actually was resting " time, I also was subdued by the old person optimistic spirit.In the life, some losses are inevitable, we should treat by the optimistic manner, cannot be calculating.
Finally, the novel sees by one youth the senior fisherman fully has 18 foot long big marlin in the measure, once more described this fish's hugeness, explained senior fisherman overcomes the difficulty was big, non- was more common than.
The novel eulogized the spirit which the senior fisherman fear hard and dangerous diligently did not struggle, we also should like his such, could not satisfy the present situation, should positively to above, do any matter all is relentless, meets difficultly must welcome difficultly above, could give up halfway in no way.Only has this, we only then can obtain a bigger success and the victory.
The old man and the sea creates a classic image of a tough guy. Santiago, an old fisherman in Cuba, went out to sea alone and caught a huge Marlin after 84 days of nothing. This is a big fish two feet longer than his boat that the old man has never seen or heard of. The fish is strong and dragging
Why didnt Hemingway let the old man win in the end? In the words of the old man in the novel, "a man is not born to be defeated", "a man can be destroyed, but he cant be defeated." This is the philosophy of the old man and the sea. Theres no denying that as long as its human, its flawed. When a person admits this defect and tries to overcome it instead of succumbing to it, whether he can finally overcome his own defect, he is a winner, because he has overcome his own compromise on the defect, he is the winner of his own courage and confidence. The old fisherman is the winner who dares to challenge his own defects and courage and confidence. From the perspective of worldly view of victory, the old fisherman is not the final winner, because although he defeated the great Marlin at first, the great Marlin was finally eaten by the sharks. He just returned to the shore with the white bone shelf of the great marlin, that is to say, the sharks are the winners. However, in the eyes of idealists, the old fisherman is the winner, because he has never been to the sea, not to the great marlin, not to the shark compromise and surrender. As music master Beethoven said, "I can be destroyed, but I cant be conquered.".
Human nature is strong, and human beings have their own limits, but it is precisely because people like the old fishermen challenge the limits again and again, and surpass them that the limits are expanded again and again, placing greater challenges in front of human beings. In this sense, such heroes as the old fisherman Santiago, whether they challenge the limit of success or failure, are worthy of our eternal respect.
Because what he brings us is the most noble confidence of human beings!
Today, I finished reading the book "the old man and the sea".This book mainly tells about an old man fishing at sea, but he did not catch a fish for times.
In fact, after I read this book, I did not fully understand the meaning of the book, so I asked my mother, and my mother told me again, so I understood some.

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.

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...

篇五：老人与海读后感英文版
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 ***e,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.
——《老人与海》英文版读后感优选【5】份
When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.But when I read it in English,I really gain something new both in the way of expression and the spirit it shows to us.May be different ages to read the same book we will learn different things from it.At least, for my part, that is true.
Firstly,I would like to review some information about this book.Such as the background,major characters and the topic of it.
The Old Man and the Sea is a story by Ernest Hemingway, written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952. It was the last major work of fiction to be produced by Hemingway and published in his lifetime. One of his most famous works, it centers upon Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who struggles with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream.
The Old Man and the Sea served to reinvigorate Hemingway's literary reputation and prompted a reexamination of his entire body of work. The novella was initially received with much popularity; it restored many readers' confidence in Hemingway's capability as an author. Its publisher, Scribner's, on an early dust jacket, called the novella a "new classic," and many critics favorably compared it with such works as William Faulkner's "The Bear" and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick.
This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the man’s braveness and persistence.
In this book, in order to suggest the profundity of the old man’s sacrifice and the glory that derives from it, Hemingway purposefully likens Santiago to Christ, who, according to Christian theology, gave his life for the greater glory of humankind. Crucifixion imagery is the most noticeable way in which Hemingway creates the symbolic parallel between Santiago and Christ. When Santiago’s palms are first cut by his fishing line, the reader cannot help but think of Christ suffering his stigmata. Later, when the sharks arrive, Hemingway portrays the old man as a crucified martyr, saying that he makes a noise similar to that of a man having nails driven through his hands. Furthermore, the image of the old man struggling up the hill with his mast across his shoulders recalls Christ’s march toward Calvary. Even the position in which Santiago collapses on his bed—face down with his arms out straight and the palms of his hands up—brings to mind the image of Christ suffering on the cross. Hemingway employs these images in the final pages of the novella in order to link Santiago to Christ, who exemplified transcendence by turning loss into gain, defeat into triumph, and even death into renewed life.
The major characters in this book are also vivid and lively.
Santiago?,the old man of the novella’s title, Santiago is a Cuban fisherman who has had an extended run of bad luck. Despite his expertise, he has been unable to catch a fish for eighty-four days. He is humble, yet exhibits a justified pride in his abilities. His knowledge of the sea and its creatures, and of his craft, is unparalleled and helps him preserve a sense of hope regardless of circumstance.
The marlin?,Santiago hooks the marlin, which we learn at the end of the novella measures eighteen feet, on the first afternoon of his fishing expedition. Manolin?,a boy presumably in his adolescence, Manolin is Santiago’s apprentice and devoted attendant. The old man first took him out on a boat when he was merely five years old. Due to Santiago’s recent bad luck, Manolin’s parents have forced the boy to go out on a different fishing boat. Manolin, however, still cares 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 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 .

Some time ago read "the old man and the sea", "the old man and the sea" is Hemingway written in Cuba in 1951, a medium-length novel, was published in 1952. The old man and the sea is one of Hemingway's most famous works, he tells the story of an old man fishing on the sea all the year round. Once he caught a big fish, but he had met on the way back to groups of sharks, the old man work hard and struggle, but failed in the end, the shark ate all of the meat, the old man dragged a pair of big fish skeleton back.
Novels of all time is very compact, before and after only four days: the day before at sea, the old man returned from the sea, with reference to play around the characters one by one, the relationship between the group and the old man, a love he, with his children learn fishing manolin; A pair of very selfish parents; A group of respected him, but always can't understand his fishing; A concerned about his hotel owners. The old man lived in such a character groups, by contrast, he had a significantly different with others, he is very optimistic, open-minded, is an experienced, the industrious and brave and confident, adventurous, dee*** loves the life of a simple Cuban fisherman. At the same time, also can produce the hub-and-spoke structure clue clear, central focus highlight, the effect of the story is concise and lively.
The old man said: "a man is not born to defeat, you can destroy it, but can't beat him." Such never-say-die spirit inspires us, we should not learn this spirit?
前一段时间读了《老人与海》深有感触，《老人与海》是海明威于1951年在古巴写的一篇中篇小说，于1952年出版。《老人与海》是海明威最著名的作品之一，他讲述了一位常年在海上打渔的老人。有一次他钓到了一条大鱼，但他在返回的路上遇上了成群的的鲨鱼，老人使出浑身解数与其搏斗，但最后还是失败了，鲨鱼把肉全吃掉了，结果老人拖着一副大鱼骨架回去了。
小说的全部时间非常紧凑，前后只有四天：出海的前一天，一老人从海上归来为引子，让周围的人物一个个出场，交代了他们与老人之间的关系：一个热爱他，跟他在一起学*钓鱼的孩子马诺林;一对非常自私的父母;一群尊敬他，但永远不能理解他的打渔人;一个关心他的酒店老板。老人就生活在这样的人物群体中，相比之下，他与众人有着明显的不同，他很乐观，心胸开阔，是个经验丰富、充满信心、勤劳勇敢、富于冒险、热爱生活的纯朴的古巴渔民。同时，这种轮辐式结构还能产生线索清晰明了、中心集中突出、故事简洁明快的效果。
老人说：“一个人并不是生来就要给打败的，你可以消灭它，却不能打败他。”这种永不言败的精神激励着我们，我们不应该学*这样的精神吗?
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.
——老人与海读后感 (菁华12篇)
一向想读这本书＜老人与海＞，最终如愿以尝了。每每读到这类外国的书，总觉得怪了点，但却并非不是一种乐趣。但我觉得这本书读得似乎比其他书更吃力些，硬着让一个正兴奋着的人静下心来去读一个老人３天的行程，似乎很困难。但它办到了。
当我意识到是，已经看完了整本书（虽然很短）。我的不耐烦去了，只明白舒了口长长的气，不知是因为最终看完了此书，还是替老人顺利回到家而开心。之后回想起来，我在吃力地啃咬下那些文字时，看到老人８４天没补到一条鱼，心里似乎笼着一大片茫茫的烟雾，看到老人为了补大马林鱼而坚持了一天一夜，柔软的沙发椅坐起来也让人腰酸背痛，如坐针毡，看到老人吃生鱼，既悲凉又不可思议，看到老人同鲨鱼搏斗，我似乎也拿起了棍子，看到老人童年的非洲的梦里的狮子，仿佛在那梦中的不是他，而是我，倚着船栏，看着海岸高处凝望的狮子
正如其他优秀的作品一样，它给我带来了深深的震撼，绝非来自文字的华美，而是心灵的，让我对像所有其他读者一样都不能不产生这样的感情：尊敬。如果一个人有老人的坚持，optimistic，这样坚强而透彻的，质朴而乐观的，高尚的心，无论是在一个普通渔夫的身上，抑或是农民，医生，工人，等等，我都要义无返顾地坚持着一情感。直至某一天，我也能得到这样的心，即便仅有一半也足够用了。
以此书此文，激励高一时的自我，不忘坚持，永远乐观！
在春节来临之前，我一直都在看这样的一本书，它能让人变得更坚强，更勇敢，它的名字就叫《老人与海》。
这本书里说的.是从前有一位老人，靠打鱼为生。但是已经八十四天了，他什么也没有捕到，连一条拇指大的小鱼都没有钓到。直到有一天，他突然钓到了一条大鱼，可是在返回家的路上，他遇到了成群的鲨鱼。老人使出浑身解数和凶恶的鲨鱼搏斗，鲨鱼把大鱼身上所有能吃的肉全都吃光了。结果老人拖回去的只是一副大鱼的骨架。
这就是《老人与海》。老人没有被任何困难压服，他尽自己最大的努力与生活中的磨难做不屈不挠地斗争。他说：“一个人并不是生来就要给打败的，你可以消灭它，却不能打败它。”我们也要向他学*，因为这种永不言败的精神感动并激励着我们每一个人。

以此书此文，激励高一时的自我，不忘坚持，永远乐观！
读完《老人与海》这小的说后，我被主人公桑提亚哥的永不言败，坚持不懈的精神说震撼，从他的身上我明白了，人，遇事要永不言败。
本文写了老渔夫桑提亚哥在第85天出海捕到大马林鱼，不料却引来了鲨鱼，他只得与鲨鱼搏斗，他每一次与鲨鱼搏斗都付出惨痛的代价，但他执着地坚持着他的想法，直至回港的故事。
执着的故事不老：爱迪生在一次又一次的试验中，一次又一次地失败中，才找出发明创造电灯的金丝线；贝多芬这个名字如雷贯耳，他在耳聋双目失明的情况下，永不言败，与命运对抗，最后创找出许多杰出的作品……
执着的精神不朽：锲而不舍，永不言败，坚持不懈……“一个人生来并不是要给打败的，你尽可以把它消灭掉，可就是打不败他。”是啊，你把他“打败”了，他还活着，因为他的体魄还活着，你在精神上战胜不了他。桑提亚哥与鲨鱼搏斗时，明知道自己力量不足，却还要跟鲨鱼搏斗，永不言败，就算是搏到生命最后一息，也值，也甘。因为他永不言败，他坚持了下来。在我们的生活中，也是能见到的，如：在做难题时，不管题目多深奥，你都要尽到最大能耐思考，尽管，最后的答案不一样，那也算你尽力了，在精神上，你已经获胜了。
“锲而不舍，永不言败……”总之一句话，遇到困难的事要永不言败，因为——这是你能否取得成功的关键一步。
所谓乐观，是看到花败草枯时会想到来年的花更加美好;所谓乐观，是在阴雨连绵时会期待雨后的绚丽彩虹;所谓乐观，是哪怕没看到彩虹也会觉得雨后的新鲜空气也不错;所谓乐观，是在独身一人时，也能“举杯邀明月，对影成三人，”乐在其中。所谓乐观而观之，观而乐之，哪怕“观”的是再大的挫折。
一个人要想学会生活，就要首先学会乐观，因为你知道，我刚刚也说过了，生活的路有多么艰辛。我想我自己之所以总觉得灰心丧气，有一部分原因就是因为我还没学会乐观。我学不会乐观，就学不会迎接困难，学不会面对生活。我在跌倒后，总是焦虑地计较身上有多少伤口，忘了庆幸自己还有力量再站起。桑提亚哥可比我不幸多了，但在精神上，他却是幸运的。因为乐观，他的精神不会被_。
在生活的困难与挫折前，微笑的人才是真正的强者，桑提亚哥便是强者，他的乐观激励了自己也激励了他人。挫折像一面镜子，你对着它笑，它也对着你笑，你试干模糊的双眼，就能看清它的脆弱。
丢了大鱼、出海归来的桑提哥亚又做了个好梦，睡得香甜。而我们也要带着笑容醒来。
在暑假期间，我利用了空余的时间把美国著名作家海明威的小说《老人与海》看了一遍。我十分佩服小说中老人的意志，他让我懂得了一个人一定要有坚持不懈的精神，才能获得成功。
这个故事是讲：古巴老渔夫桑迪亚哥，在连续84天没有捕捉到鱼的情况下，依旧单身出海打鱼，终于捕到一条大马林鱼，但这是一条超过自己渔船数倍的大马林鱼，老人奋战了几天才将它杀死。归途中，又一再遭到鲨鱼的袭击，回到海港时，只剩下一副鱼的骨头架子。
这个故事让我懂得了“一个人并不是生来要给打败的，你尽可以消灭他，可就是打不败他”。无论老人是否捕到一条完整的马林鱼还是一副骨架，这都无所谓了，因为一个人的生命价值已在那捕捉马林鱼的过程中体现了。老人曾经为自己的理想奋斗过，难道他不算是一个胜利者吗？
就像是我们语文书上的《伟大的悲剧》主人公斯科特带领着他的朋友们一起去寻找南极极点，但是却发现挪威队的人比他们快先一步。对于他们来说第一个到达才是成功，第二个到达什么也不是。但是他们是胜利者，是英雄，因为他们敢于去追求梦想，敢于挑战，坚持不懈。
在*常人眼里渔夫是个失败者，可是在有梦想的人看来渔夫是个胜利者，因为他没有向大马林鱼，没有向鲨鱼，没有向大海，向命运妥协和投降，而是坚持的为此去奋斗。渔夫的这种坚持不懈，敢于追求，敢于挑战的精神值得我们学*。
我读了一本书名字叫《老人与海》一个名叫圣地亚哥的老渔夫，独自一人出海打鱼，整整八十四天，他都要一无所获。但是，老人病没有退缩，最后钓到了一条马林鱼。这条鱼巨大无比，比老人的船只还要长。老人和这条大鱼在茫茫的大海中搏斗了整整两天两夜，最后，老人战胜了从未受过的艰难考验，把大鱼刺死，并将其拴在船头，然而在回航途中，鲨鱼来袭。疲惫不堪的老人由于鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗。最终，老人带回来的只是一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。
这个老人是胜利者，因为他没有向茫茫大海、大鱼、鲨鱼屈服和投降。虽然最终他没有任何收获，可是他却是精神上的强者。从这个意义上说老人值得我们尊重和学*。
这个故事告诉我们人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败，我们要学*老的坚强和勇敢！
“《老人与海》是一部异常有力、无比简洁的作品，具有一种无法抗拒的美。”这是瑞典文学院院士霍尔斯陶穆对这本书的评价。那么，请让我们来欣赏这“无法抗拒的美”。
这是一个老渔夫的故事。
老渔夫圣地亚哥整日出海捕鱼，可是他一连四十八天都一无所获，但老渔夫用他乐观的心态，依旧每天满载希望的出海。他无亲无故，独自一人住在破棚子里。但他有一个唯一的朋友——五岁的小男孩马诺林。男孩的父母看到老渔夫一连八十四天都没有捕到什么，于是不允许男孩再跟着老渔夫。让人暖心的是，小男孩虽然不能再跟老渔夫一起出海，心里却一直惦念着老渔夫这个忘年交。
第八十五天，老渔夫又一大早就出海了。这次，他驾着船到了很远很远的地方，终于，他钓到了一条足有十八英尺的大马林鱼!这其中，他与这条大马林鱼周旋了两天一夜的时间。诸位请想一想，一位年过花甲的老人，虽然有足够的经验，但它的力量却远不及那些年轻力壮的小伙子，更何况还是两天一夜。但他的努力没有白费。马林鱼败下阵来，败给了他的顽强。但幸运并没有持久的停留在这里，在这艘破烂的渔船上。鲨鱼，一群鲨鱼盯上了那条大马林鱼鲜美的肉。这时，老渔夫只要解开绳子，放弃那条马林鱼他便能轻松地回去。但老人并没有这样做。他选择了战斗。他拿起了船上所有可用的东西，终于，鲨鱼离开了，老人，在这场战争中胜出了。纵使马林鱼只剩了骨架，而他也精疲力尽。
“人不是生来就要被打败的。”这是他那时说的话。
海明威先生写作的态度极其严谨、认真，这点从他的作品中就能看出来，他每天写作前，要先把前一天的读一遍，写到哪里，就改到哪里。全书写完后又从头致尾改一遍，草稿请人打字誊清后又改一遍，最后清样出来再改一遍。他认为这样的三次修改是写好一本书的必要条件。他的长篇小说《永别了，武器》初稿就写了六个月，修改又花了五个月，清样出来后还在改，最后一页甚至改了三十九次才满意。
可见海明威先生对他的创作是多么严谨认真，才让其他人能看见这样优秀的作品。
昨晚，我一口气读完了《老人与海》这本书。它讲的是一位白发苍苍的老人，他常年靠在大海里打渔为生，（信念，不但制服了那条大鱼，而且战胜了鲨鱼。而我的坏毛病只是不由自主造成的。跟老人比起来，我要克服这个坏毛病简单多了。我下定决心一定要改掉这个坏毛病。写作业时，我时时刻刻提醒自己要坐直，就这样我改掉了这个坏毛病，我克服了它！
我虽不能一天就改掉这个坏毛病，但我用自己的信念用数天克服了它！最终我成功的消灭了它！
什么事没有做不成的，只要有克服困难的信心和坚定的意志！
《老人与海》这一本书是美国著名作家海明威的著作，写的是一位名叫“圣地亚哥”的老人。他是个倒霉的渔夫，但他却是这本书的主人公。
幸运之神已经遗忘了他84天，由于他是以打鱼来维持生计的，可84天中他没有钓到一条小鱼，几乎快要永远的离开这多姿多彩的世界。可他凭着坚强意念，与老天作对。每当他回家时，就会被全镇的人取笑。笑他连一条小鱼都钓不到，老人老了。独自在一旁回想起自己年轻时像一个大英雄的时候，正是他这一回想。正是他年轻时的威武，给予了他一股强大的力量，他决定要出海捞一条大鱼。
清晨海风像一群战马似的，扑向老人。让我不禁的打起了一冷颤，他会成功吗？眼前一片漆黑，伸手不见五指。可海洋是仁慈的，并且十分美丽，可谓是人间天堂！天渐渐亮了，老人感觉自己离陆地更远了。可他不怕，仍然下饵。等待着鱼儿的上钩。
太阳已经出来有几个小时了，可他仍然一无所获。远远望去，他突然看见了飞鱼群。老人又有了信心，他赶紧警惕起来。不久他感到钓竿在自己手中颤抖，他把绳绕着自己的身上。用力拉拽，是一条大鱼他更加不放手了。小船被大鱼牵动着，时间一分一秒的过去。天又亮了，老人还在与大鱼作斗争。
老人为什么不放手？毕竟这条鱼太大，而且时间太长。他舍不得这条鱼，舍不得这荣耀，舍不得这八十几天的奋斗！
终于他如愿以偿的战胜了这条大鱼，将他捆绑在船边。老人再也站不起来，因为它荒废了自己所有的力量。他睡了，因为他太累了。幸运之神来了又走，人类始终不是海洋的霸王，鲨鱼来了。
因为飞鱼的血腥味把鲨鱼给引来了，老人马上用叉狠狠的刺在鲨鱼的身上。鲨鱼受伤，他游走了，把老人的武器也给带走了。它将无法驱逐那群讨厌的鲨鱼，自己也可能葬身大海，或者死于鲨鱼的虐杀。小小的胜利没有带来喜悦，没有希望，而是，在死亡的笼罩下。他吃了四十磅鱼肉，不过人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败。老人打起精神，要与鲨鱼对抗到底。
老人拿起小刀与鲨鱼对抗起来，在鲨鱼的攻击下小刀也断了。不知过了多久老人回到了家。庞大的鱼也只剩下鱼骨，但那鱼骨就是证明老人勇敢的证人！
人性是强悍的，人类有超越它本身的意能。从这位老渔夫圣地亚哥的表现中，让我领悟到不管成功还是失败，都值得我们永远敬重。因为，他带给我们的是人类最为尊高的、永不言败的精神。
人生本来就是一种无止境的追求。他的道路漫长、艰难，而且充满坎坷，但只要自己勇敢顽强的以一颗自信的心去迎战，胜利将永远属于我们！
在作者海明威的笔下，圣地亚哥并不是一个失败的渔夫，他是一个成功者，他没有因为被马林鱼拖行后而放弃，也并没有因为鲨鱼吓的连忙就跑，他勇敢的向前迈了一步与马林鱼比起力气与鲨鱼开始博弈，他虽然一无所获，但却得到了人生更大的财富。
人生就是一盘棋，只有敢于拼搏、敢于面对才可能成为人生的赢家，只有这样你才能悟出人的生存之道，你才能懂得人魂价值。相比之下，我不由心里一震，以前的我是多么的懦弱遇到什么事只要不顺就会退缩，有时还会说几句丧气的话，干一件事情三次没有成功就会不由自主的放弃。《老人与海》这本书中老渔夫与鲨鱼拼光了一切搏斗的精神不正是我缺少的吗？
我要感谢这本书，他让我懂得了人生的真谛，即使面对生老病死，我们也要宽心对待，在人生的大道上我们是孤单的，也是热闹的。干一件事不论成功还是失败，我们都应该面对命运的选择。往往困难是吞不掉我们的坚强与幸福的，而打倒我们的是胆小和害怕。我深知“一个真正的强者他的意志永远不会被击夸的。
“一个人并不是生来就要被打败的，人尽可以被毁灭，但却不能被打败”。
《老人与海》这部作品，具有一种无可抗拒的美。
古巴老鱼夫已经84天没打到鱼，一次独自出海钓到一条大鱼，与鲨鱼进行殊死搏斗，由于寡不敌众，最后拖回一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。
老渔夫与鲨鱼搏斗中，没有丝毫退缩，而是迎难而上，即使充满坎坷，还是怀着一颗自信心去迎接挑战，坚强的意志没有丝毫的改变。虽然他最后没取胜，但是他带来了人类最为重要的自信！做人不应该被任何困难所屈服，应该尽自己的能力与困难作斗争。普里尼说过：“在希望与失望的决斗中，如果你用勇气与坚决的`双手握紧着，胜利必属于希望。”
在这漫漫的人生道路上，包含了风风雨雨，伴随着恶劣的环境，在此时此刻，不要有些风浪，就垂头丧气，认定自己是失败者，叫苦连天，或是怨天尤人。不管有多艰难，都应该保持正常的心态使自己不意志消沉，满怀信心，以乐观的态度看待困难，以坚强的意志的精神与困难斗争，以坚持不懈的精神通往成功之路。胜利的道路是迂回曲折的，像山间小径一样，这条路有时先折回来，然后伸向前去，走这条路的人需要耐心和毅力，累了就歇在路边的人是不会胜利的。
人生就像一片汪洋大海，它很深，也很危险，它可以把你推往一个不知深度，迷失方向的地方，我们为了在道路上成功行驶，将努力地去解决。就是有九十九个困难，只要有一个坚强的意志就不困难。
不管风吹浪打，胜似闲庭信步！我感谢这本书，让我懂得：无论什么时候，不管遇到什么困难，我决不允许自己有一点点灰心丧气。坚持不懈地战胜困难。
——《老人与海》 读后感 (菁华5篇)
这是一部异常有力、无比简洁的作品，但就在这寓意深远的古典悲剧式的小说中，有许许多多的话，有许许多多的启发在读完《老人与海》的时候在一瞬间迸发。
海明威说过：“我站着写完这本书，而且是一只脚站着。我采取这种姿势，使自己处于一种紧张状态，迫使我尽可能简短地表达我的思想。”我想：如果海明威真正的细致描写，也许会有另一种含义，也能代表许许多多不同的东西了吧。在颁奖时所念的授奖词中提到：“他的艺术风格达到极致。”这部作品正是体现他这种叙事技巧的典范。这篇故事讲的是老人圣地亚哥在大西洋里和一条大鱼搏斗，最终终于成功后，因为鱼太大所以只能绑在船的一侧，但是鱼腥味重而引来鲨鱼，鱼肉都被咬去，最后只带回鱼头鱼尾和一条鱼脊骨。
为什么海明威没有写老人最终胜利，而写他徒劳无功呢？这是我读完后的第一个想法。但是到后来我就明白，这个故事，非常形象的展现出人的命运。它赞扬了那种即使一无所获，徒劳无功但是仍旧不屈不挠的奋斗精神，赞扬了那种不畏艰险、不惧失败的的道义胜利。老人并没有因为将*四个月没捕到鱼而气馁，每次出海都满怀希望，鼓励着自己。妈妈也说过，她看完这部书，感悟最大的便是老人的精神。虽然他在现实中失败了，但是它引来了众人的目光，在精神上是胜利者。哪怕以往年轻时有多么的引人注意，上了年纪后总是会失败的。但是老人不放弃，即使最终迎来的是失败还是成功。
但是后来我又想想，老人的出海不就是为了金钱吗？为了能够赚钱而出海，结果却是丢失的渔叉、一把断了头的刀和一双受了重伤的手？这样巨大的付出，值得这样冒险去做吗？况且到后来，他不是吐出怪怪的东西，感到胸腔里有什么东西碎裂了吗？但是妈妈却说道，圣地亚哥这么做，都是为了能够过上好一点的生活，因为他实在是太贫穷了，以至于晚饭和撒网的事情都是幻想的。也许也是为了那个孩子，想让那个孩子对自己重燃希望，再次和他一起出海捕鱼。我又这么一想，也确实如此了吧。人生在世，不就是为了生存，还有面子，自信以及荣耀么，强者生存，弱者只能死路一条了吧。老人在捕鱼过程中，曾想过许多许多次的的放弃，但他每次都骂自己想这些干什么，重要的是把握住现在。这点非常值得我学*。也许在人生道路上，会遇到成千上万的挫折，也许会跌倒过许多次，在跌倒的同时，路旁的人会帮助你，帮助你站起，安慰你使你重燃希望。但是也不是每次都会有人帮助你，有时候也应该鼓励自己，自己独自一人走下去。老人曾多次想到孩子，也多次梦到狮子，这也许是他的最大的精神支柱了吧。
最后老人的熟睡，却也让我长舒了一口气，觉得能回来也是极大的幸运。孩子看到老人的样子，竟然哭了，那哭泣，也许是对老人回来的开心，也许也是老人憔悴成那样的伤心，还有就是让老人独自出海的后悔和内疚也说不定。但是总的来说，老人终是失败的，那鱼骨最终即将要被海浪卷走，那最后胜利留下的唯一证明也要再次消失。故事富有戏剧性的情节在我眼前展现，一个个看似*淡的表达串联起来，积累起来，产生了一种震撼人心的巨大力量。在故事中老人说过：“人生来不是为了被打败的，人可以被消灭，但不可以被打败。”这不就是整部书的内容的最简概括了吗？这部作品也都散发着象征和寓意的味道：人生在世必会受到挫折和困难，经过奋斗，总会不无收获，得到满足、愉悦和友情，但最终还必然走向失败甚至是死亡。但是在整体上，我们人类还是在朝前蹒跚行进的。
读完《老人与海》，我感到全身似乎增添了勇气和力量，也懂得了人生的道理。我相信，在未来的人生道路，虽一切都是未知数，但我会一路克服困难，信心十足的面对，不断鼓励我自己独自走下去。
《老人与海》的作者大名鼎鼎——海明威，他正是凭借这部作品，获得诺贝尔文学奖，他说这是他这辈子所能写的最好的一部作品。这样的一部作品，我有必要仔细阅读，认真推荐。
这本书在国内有很多版本，我手头这本是先生在网上随便选的，没有与其他版本做过对比，所以，我就不推荐具体的版本了。
这本书讲了这样一个故事：
一位穷困潦倒的老人，他连续84天出海都一无所获，唯一一个让他牵挂的人——一个爱他的小男孩，也被迫离开老人，到另一条渔船上工作。老人觉得他的好运气全丢光了，但他期待第85天有所收获，这一天，他决定到远海捕鱼。老人已经很老了，男孩担心他体力不支，但老人却说他有的是办法对付大鱼，况且他年轻的时候可是掰手腕冠军。
这一天，老人果然钓到一条鱼，通过钓索传来的力量和被鱼拖着前行的小船的速度，老人知道这是一条大鱼。他的`双手被钓索割破，脊背被钓索勒的生疼，左手还不争气的抽着筋。但是，老人知道，好汉总是能忍着剧痛赢得胜利。
老人的船就这样被大鱼一直拖行着。老人除了一瓶水以外，几乎没有别的食物，他就把刚捕到的金枪鱼和飞鱼剖开来吃掉。但是，老人知道，他有的是办法对付这条大鱼。
久而久之，他头晕目眩，但他一直告诫自己要清醒，逼着自己不被大鱼拖垮，就像一个好汉一样。又一个夜晚过去了，大鱼终于慢慢浮上水面，老人看清了它是一条无比巨大、健美、强壮而沉着的大鱼。老人一次又一次的尝试把大鱼拉到船边，但大鱼实在太大了，老人实在太疲惫了，每一次都没有成功。即便如此，老人仍然想，我要保持清醒，再试一次，像一个好汉一样，尝试最后一次了。于是，一次又一次，终于把大鱼拉到船边，用长矛刺死了这条与他抗争了几天几夜的大鱼。
这条大鱼那么高贵，老人把它视作兄弟，惺惺相惜。但他必须杀死它，即便如此，在老人心中，谁也不配吃掉它。
老人把大鱼绑在小船旁边，就像船与大鱼齐头并进一样。他终于可以舒服的在船尾休息，趁着海风把大鱼带回家。可是，好景不长，一条凶猛的鲨鱼来袭，老人重振精神，举起长矛，等待着鲨鱼的进攻，他有的是办法对付这些贪婪的鲨鱼。鲨鱼咬掉大鱼尾部上的一大块肉，老人心疼他的大鱼，对鲨鱼报以长矛锥心。
这条鲨鱼慢慢沉入海底，老人知道，还会有很多鲨鱼一波一波的袭来。没关系，老人想，他有的是办法对付它们，他能保护他的大鱼。长矛没有了，尖刀没有了，没关系，还有舵把和短棍，即使不能像年轻时那样把鲨鱼打死，起码有这些东西在，他也能抵挡的住。
精疲力竭的老人，忍着双手和脊背的剧痛，像个好汉一样，一次又一次奋力保护着他的大鱼，即使大鱼只剩下一半，即使最后大鱼只剩下硕大的鱼头和比镰刀还高的鱼尾，中间是一排光秃秃的脊柱。老人就这样拖着疲惫的身体和他的大鱼回到港湾。
英雄迟暮，总是格外凄凉。老人的双手和脊背受了伤，他像一个好汉一样忍着；老人年迈，体力不支，但他像一个好汉一样用尽各种办法；老人觉得好运不会光顾，但他仍像一个好汉一样守护他的大鱼；老人头晕目眩，但他仍像一个好汉一样鼓励自己，一定要保持清醒。因为，老人坚信，人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败。
他是一个普通的老人，他会头晕、会疼痛、会孤独、会期待、会疲累。但他也是一个不一般的老人，他坚韧、他乐观、他充满斗志、他不可战胜，他有的是办法。
谁的人生路中没有几条鲨鱼来袭。来吧！一波又一波的鲨鱼，我有的是办法对付，像个好汉一样！

老人桑提亚哥出海挑战大海的时候，那是人类都会引为自豪的象征，勇于挑战和渴望征服浩瀚的大海，渴望和一条真正的鲨鱼面对面的挑战；一条船，一个老人，一片浩瀚的大海；鲨鱼出现了，大海只派了它的小小的鲨鱼出现了，老人和小船，大海派来的小小的鲨鱼，老人是人类的代表，老人眼里这是条真正的鲨鱼；于是，老人抖擞精神，和鲨鱼进行着殊死搏斗，一场征服和反征服的搏斗，大块的鱼肉和后来的争夺，局部的胜利之后，当老人感觉胜利在握的时候，鲨鱼忽然，老人最后是空着双手，幸运地凯旋。
我最初看《老人与海》之后，只感叹了一句，人最终不知道自己需要什么，征服了什么。*古代文化的内涵，在于亲和力，而不是征服的力量，海明威参加过美国人的英雄思维，就是强调征服的力量，但是失明后的他，开始思考征服的意义，所以才有《老人和海》；人类的生存意识是海，如果盲目的强调一个生命对另一个生命的征服和占有，即使进行着不屈不饶的过程，结果只有海明威所写的，老人空着手回航：一个人并不是生来要被打败的，你尽可以把他消灭掉，但永远不会打败他，人如此，其他的生命呢？
海明威留下思考的同时，他也留下了耐人寻味的话：我试图塑造一位真正的老人、一个真正的孩子、一片真正的海、一条真正的鱼和真正的鲨鱼。如果我能将他们塑造得十分出色和真实，他们将意味许多东西。一个简单的故事，一个*凡的老人，一条普通的大马林鱼，在茫茫大海上发生了看似*凡而又不*凡的经历。
也许没有大海，就没有鱼；没有鱼，也就没有渔夫，同样也就没有折断不*凡的经历了。正因为有了大海，才让渔夫钓上了一条大马林鱼，但却在海上拖了三天三夜才把鱼杀死，但又遭到了鲨鱼的袭击，最后的结局可想而知，这条大马林鱼只剩下了鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨。一切的肉体都不复存在了，剩下的只是一个躯壳，一个没有灵魂的躯壳，任人摆布，但是谁又愿意去操控它呢？它只不过是一堆毫无利用价值的骨架。然而，一个悲剧性的故事里，却折射出一个英雄人物——老人桑提亚哥。连续八十四天没有捕到鱼，在别人眼中他是一个失败者。因为作为渔夫，捕不到鱼，还能算是真正的渔夫吗？
而可贵的还是他却能在第八十五天决心驶向远方的大海去钓鱼，那种知其不可为而为之的勇气，难道不令我们佩服吗？不论是鱼叉，小刀，短棍。一次次被鲨鱼带走，但他始终用尽一切手段进行反击，什么也无法摧残它英勇的意志。一句我跟你奉陪到死，夹杂在大海的咆哮声中，回响在我耳旁。一个人把生命都压了上去，与敌人做殊死的博斗，能不算英勇吗？我想鲨鱼正是宇宙间一切破坏性力量的化身，而老人正是正义的使者。在人的一生中随时随地都存在这股破坏力量，人生是不停地循环着的，喜剧的落幕，不就是悲剧的上演；悲剧的落幕，也就意味着喜剧的再度登场。
老人将大马林鱼杀死看似是完美的结果，但同时他还在酝酿这自己的悲剧。鲨鱼的袭击，就是应得的报应。一个人生活在世上总是有所追求的，无论追求的东西是好，是坏，追求的手段是正义，还是卑劣；也许能够得到就是最好的结果吧。在充满悲剧色彩的全文中仍有一丝亮点，那就是孩子。
孩子带回了老人失去的青春，使他找回了自我。如果每一个人都拥有一分童心，一分天真，那么世界不再总是灰色，就算当时你享有的是最后的晚餐，也不会忘记在饭前洗手，饭后漱口了。回想起文中老人的话人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能给打败不正道出了本文的主题吗？人真的是很奇怪的动物，为何有勇气面对死亡，却没有勇气面对失败呢？难道失败真的如此可怕吗？失败并不可怕，可怕的是不知如何面对失败！
读《老人与海》有感人，不是为失败而生的。一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败。－－题记空空荡荡的沙滩上，一位孤独的老人拖着疲惫年迈的的身躯和一具庞大的马林鱼的骨头在沙滩上艰难的走向他的窝棚为了这条马林鱼，老人与鲨鱼搏斗了五次，结果，这条钓了八十五天才钓到的大马林鱼，还是被吃光了只剩下这具白森森的鱼骨头这位老人就是美国小说家厄内斯特海明威的中的主人公桑提亚哥渔夫，一个硬汉
老渔夫虽然老了，倒霉，失败，但他仍旧坚持奋斗，勇敢拼搏在鲨鱼的第一次袭击时，老人损失了磅肉和一柄鱼叉；第二次袭击，大鱼的四分之一被吃掉了；直到第三次袭击后，桑提亚哥所有杀伤力的武器都没有了，但老人并没有放弃，仍然想尽一切办法保护他的大马林鱼。第四次，鱼的身子已经面目全非了。“人不能总在失败当中活着”，他说“一个人是可以被毁灭的，但决不能被打败！”不管怎样困难，他总是充满信心，满怀希望的。
最后鲨鱼群袭来了，老人拼尽全力击打鲨鱼，但也无法避免鱼肉被鲨鱼全部吃掉的结果在和鲨鱼得战争中，桑提亚哥老人彻底失败了，把大鱼带回窝棚的希望彻底破灭了，他得战利品仅仅是一副白森森的鱼骨他精疲力竭“老人着时有种窒息的感觉，觉得嘴里有股怪怪的铜腥气，却带着甜滋滋的味道，他一时害怕起来好在这味儿不浓“老人这时可以说是身心俱疲了，这种感觉是人在用尽力气后产生的眩晕感觉但还有生命在，还有意志在，他还是乐观的他真正体现了人不是为失败而生的一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败!这使我想起了海明威，一个极具进取精神的硬汉子，一个时代的强者海明威生活的时代，整个西方资本主义国家里呈现一片混乱的景象：经济危机，市场萧条，战争频繁．这个充满着战争，暴力，凶杀，邪恶，堕落，恐惧，绝望和死亡的世界，对海明威产生了决定性的影响和打击，并在他的肉体和心灵上留下了不可治愈的可怕的创伤，从而把他推向了痛苦，迷惘，绝望和死亡的边缘．但是，他并没有被打垮，他像一头“受了伤的狮子”，用笔同那个荒诞的世界做了无数次战争。“一艘船越过世界的尽头，驶向未知的海洋，船头上悬挂着一面虽然饱经风雨剥蚀却依旧艳丽无比的旗帜。
旗帜上，舞动着云龙一般的四个闪闪发光的字――超越极限！”这就是海明威，那个始终坚持“冰山原则”写作的诺贝尔文学奖获得者的海明威，那个要超过莎士比亚，干掉屠格涅夫，把莫泊桑，汤斯达打在地上的有远大理想的海明威，那个时代的强者！而今天，在新时代里，充满着和*，自由，快乐。一切都是那么美好!没有战争，没有暴力，没有恐惧，一切都欣欣向荣，仿佛天堂一般这个时代给予我们太多太多的美好，太多太多的幸福，就像温室中幸福的花儿，虽然也是有阴雨天气，也时有电闪雷鸣，但是与海明威那个时代相比，就太不值得一提了。可温室中的花儿一旦被放置在室外，就可能有凋零的危险。就像现在的我们。我们中间不乏有一些禁不住困难挫折的人。跳楼，服药，割腕，他们以为这是解脱，其实不是的。想想看，一个没有暴风骤雨的人生有什么意思？面对这些挫折，挑战它们，又何尝不是一件乐事？
人是不能被打败的，只要我们有信念。不要向它们屈服，要像桑提亚哥老鱼夫一样，大鲨鱼固然是最后的胜利者，但高于鲨鱼胜利的是桑提亚哥的精神！正如海明威所说的：“我可以被摧毁，但我不能被征服！”勇敢拼搏，不向挫折低头，面对困难，厄运，要勇于去克服它，去打败它，做新时代的强者。要时刻记得，我们可以被毁灭，但决不能被征服！
这个寒假，我读了一本书叫《老人与海》这本书主要讲述了一位老人常年独自在海上打鱼。有一次他钓到了一条大鱼，但是在返回的路上碰到了成群的鲨鱼。老人使出浑身解数和鲨鱼搏斗，鲨鱼把能吃的肉都吃完了。结果老人拖回去的只是一副大鱼骨架。
在生活中，我们碰到了困难，也许会迎难而上；但也会畏难止步，比如说张海迪阿姨，她小时候双脚就已经残废，但是她并没有向挫折屈服，而是以积极、乐观、自信的态度去挑战挫折。她天天把词语贴在床头、墙壁上、厨房……经过张海迪阿姨的不懈努力，她终于战胜了挫折，而且还获得了荣誉，为祖国做出了自己的贡献。鲁迅先生曾经说过：“伟大的胸怀，应该表现出这样的气概—用笑脸迎接悲惨的命运，用自信的勇气来应付自己的不幸。”是啊！当我们碰到厄运和不幸时，与其埋怨命运的不公，还不如鼓起勇气，振作精神，以刚毅的态度与厄运抗争。
老人不也是这样的吗？老人没有被任何困难压倒，他尽自己的努力与生活中的磨难做不屈不挠的斗争。老人也说过一声令我最难忘的话：“一个人并不是生来就要给打败的，你可以消灭他，却不能打败他。”当你碰到困难时，你一定不要被挫折压倒啊！一个人的一生中不可能没有失败，但我们假如能够从失败中获取有益的经验，发现成功的曙光，把失败看成是通向成功的必经之路。那才是从失败中获取的的收获。**曾经说过：“失败是成功之母。”曾任美国总统的林肯一生遭到无数次失败和打击。然而，他英勇卓绝。他从1832年失业后，他经过了13次竞选，然而有12次的竞选是失败的。他在最后一次，也就是1860年的时候林肯终于当选为美国总统，他终于成功了，这是一件多么令人兴奋的事情，他的努力终于得到了回报。
我们碰到挫折时，应该要勇敢面对，在困难面前迎难而上。我们有了这种奋不顾身、不怕困难的勇气，就有了征服困难的精神力量。正如歌德所说的：“你若失去了金钱，你只失去了一点儿；你若失去了荣誉，你就失掉了许多；你若失去了勇气，你就把一切都失去了。”
外国名著老人与海读后感范文3
他，一个坚强，不畏困难，不怕失败的人。他虽然屡受打击，却从未放弃过心中的希望。他虽然屡次失败，却从未有灰心丧气的念头。他多次险些丧命，却在无畏中一次又一次点燃胜利的希望之火。他就是海明威笔下的硬汉——圣地亚哥
圣地亚哥是个不走运的老头儿——出海84天一无所获，常跟着他大鱼的小男孩也因此被父母叫回。但是，老人并没有丧失信心，而是在第85天继续出海，终于捕到了一条大马林鱼。但这条比他船还大的大马林鱼力量非常大，它拖着小船漂流了整整两天两夜。在这两天两夜中，老人经历了从未经历过的艰难考验，终于把大鱼刺死，栓在船边上。然而在返航途中却遇上了鲨鱼，老人与鲨鱼进行殊死搏斗，结果大马林鱼还是被鲨鱼吃光了，老人最后拖回家的只是鱼头，鱼尾和一副毫无价值的光秃秃的鱼骨架。
从结局看来，老人似乎是个失败者。但这副*乎用生命换来的鱼骨架，却彰显了老人生命的硬度，老人用顽强演绎了一首生命之歌。老人虽然失败了，但他依然是英雄，是一位敢于与命运进行抗争的硬汉英雄。
面对巨大的大马林鱼，面对强大的鲨鱼，老人没有退缩，没有害怕，他一直不屈不饶地与他们进行殊死搏斗。他是敢于挑战自身缺陷及自己勇气和信心的胜利者。“人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败。”老人的这句话诠释了英雄与硬汉的内涵，诠释了生命的意义。
“我会跟他们战斗，一直战死为止。”这个硬汉面对挑战如是说。像老渔夫圣地亚哥这样的英雄，不管他挑战的结果是成功还是失败，都是值得我们永远敬重的。因为，他带给我们的是人类最为高贵的自信与顽强！
不屈服于困境，不低头于失败，脚踏实地，坚持不懈，把不值得变成值得，把不可能化为可能。像老人一样，永不言弃亦永不言败，成功便在眼前。

【推荐】《老人与海》读后感
认真读完一本著作后，你有什么领悟呢？需要回过头来写一写读后感了。那么如何写读后感才能更有感染力呢？下面是小编整理的《老人与海》读后感，欢迎阅读，希望大家能够喜欢。
在这个暑假里，我读了许多书。其中，一本好书陪伴了我整个暑假。这本书就是《老人与海》。它是我最喜欢的一本书，我也从中学到了很多的道理。
书中的老人是打鱼的，不过他打鱼技术并不怎么样。有一个孩子跟着老人一起打鱼，这个孩子让老人感到很快乐。一个人的孤独终究打破了俩个人的幸福。可好景不长，老人由于一直没有打到大鱼孩子的父母让他跟着别的船只大鱼。虽然不在一起打鱼了，不过孩子经常来陪伴老人，让老人不孤独、不寂寞。
一次，老人去远海打鱼，在第一天老人就打到了一只很大的鱼，老人和它耗了两天一夜，大鱼终于被老人打到了，老人非常非常的开心。可就在返回的路上遇到了成群的鲨鱼。老人使出浑身解数和鲨鱼拼了命的搏斗鲨鱼拔打鱼的肉全都吃完了。老人拖回家的只是一副大鱼的骨架。
这就是我最喜欢看的书《老人与海》。这本书告诉了我：老人没有被任何困难所压服，他尽自己最大的能力与生活中的磨难作斗争。他还说了一句话；“一个人并不是生来就要给打败的，你可以消灭他，却不能打败他。”这种永不言败、不屈不挠的精神所感动并激励着我们每一个人。
我建议大家也去看一看《老人与海》，体验一下老人的精神所在。看了也就知道我为什么那么喜欢看那本书了。
“人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败。”这是出自海明威笔下的《老人与海》的一句名言，直到读完了整本书，我才真正明白了这句话。
主要公桑提亚哥八十四天没捕到鱼，再次出海却见到了罕见的马林鱼，他与马林鱼缠斗了很久，最后却在返航时遇到了鲨鱼，虽然他知道反抗已是徒劳，但他依然与鲨鱼做斗争，直到最后船靠岸时，只剩下了一副鱼骨架。
在这一部作品中，鲨鱼群象征着生活的困难，而那条大马林鱼则象征着理想，我们不可否认，只要是人就有缺陷，但当一个人承认了这些缺陷并且努力拼搏想要战胜他而不是屈服于他时，结果无论如何都已不再重要，一个人的价值已充分体现出来。桑提亚哥为了自己的理想，他努力过、奋斗过，他已经成为了一名胜利者，他就是敢于挑战自己的勇气与决心的胜利者。
从普通人眼中，鲨鱼才是最后的胜利者，桑提亚哥只是将鱼骨架带到了岸上，但我认为桑提亚哥才是最后的胜利者，他从来没有屈服于大海与鲨鱼。
人是有极限的，正是有老渔夫桑提亚哥这样的不断挑战自我、挑战极限、超越极限的人，人类的极限才会不断突破。
人生是一条漫长而艰难的道路，但只要敢于拼搏，奋斗，敢于面对困难，你就会是一个胜利者。
那天我去书店看见书架上有一本《老人与海》，我按捺不住的好奇心便把它拿了起来。
这本书主要讲主要写了一个老人，已经100多天没有捕到鱼了，有一天他突然钓到了一条大马林鱼，并与它搏击了好几天，总算将其捕上，半路却碰到鲨鱼并与之搏斗，最终带回鱼的骨架返航故事。
当我读到老人很多天捕不到鱼食，我并不惊讶，可是当我读到老人与大鱼搏斗的过程，我的心却提了起来，为老人做这条鱼的历程有多少困难，但它却没有放弃，依旧勇往直前，即使半路遭到了鲨鱼的攻击也不放弃，拿起破败的工具与鲨鱼们斗争，书中还有一个配角，是一个小男孩，即使他父母不同意，他也再到老人船上，他也帮老人干了一些活，自己力所能及的事，她多么乐于助人，看到书中不放弃的老人。
反观生活中的我，被老师训了几次，便放弃画漫画。被老师指甲弹了几次就放弃学*弹吉他。回头看以前自己，正是自己缺乏应有的坚持和毅力很多的事情半途而废，真不应该。
《老人与海》这本书让我感受到老人的硬汉精神和那勇往直前的力量。
他是一位坚强，不怕失败，不畏艰难的人。他虽然屡次失败，但他从不放弃。他虽然运气不济，但他从未有过灰心丧气的念头。他就是本文的主人公——一位老人。在一个细雨蒙蒙夜晚，我看完了这本书。
一个*凡的人，一个时而宁静时而狂风暴雨的大海，一条普通的大马林鱼。发生了一件事情。
一个老渔夫再圣地亚哥连续八十四天都没有捕到鱼。他居然没有放弃，功夫不负有心人，他在海上漂泊的第八十五天的时候终于发现了一条重达1500磅的大马林鱼，大马林鱼使出自己所有力量想艰难逃离，但老人死拉不放手，没有孩子的帮忙，没有食物，没有淡水。就这样两天两夜过去了。老人战胜了一条重达1500磅的大马林鱼，由于鱼的体形太大，只能放在船的一旁。
虽然老人战胜了一条大鱼，但大鱼流下的血招来了一群鲨鱼。
没过几日，鲨鱼们在撕咬的老人的战利品。老人用鱼叉试图制止鲨鱼，虽然把鲨鱼赶走，但只剩下了一个鱼骨头。老人最拖走了那来之不易的“战利品”，躺在床上，想在一个好梦来忘记那件事的悲哀。
“人不是为失败而生的，人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败。”那位老人不仅代表着社会上的每一个，更代表一颗永不服输的心。这就是我在《老人与海》的“战利品”。
读《老人与海》有感这个暑假，我一口气读完了《老人与海》，书中的每个细则都让我值得回味。《老人与海》是美国著名作家海明威的优秀作品，曾获得诺贝尔文学奖。
它主要描述了一个孩子常常协助一位常年在海上的老人，那位老人常常一无所获。有一次，他用六根钓绳来掉40海寻至140海寻的鱼类，结果经过长达三天三夜消耗战，终于钓到了一条大鱼，在回去的途中由于群鲨搏斗，最后拖回了一副鱼骨架子。桑提阿果老爷爷就是这样一位一般而又可敬的劳动者，他不被任何困难所压服，尽自身最大的努力，与生活中的磨难做不屈不挠的比拼，他这种永不言败的的精神值得大家尊敬和学*。
无论是在生活中还是在学*中，大家都会遇到许多困难，但是在面对他们的时候，，自己的态度各有不一样，有的惧怕困难，有的逃避困难，有的克服困难，迎流而上。譬如大家在学*中遇到难点，大多数时候大家会由于太难而放弃，但是假如大家同我们的独立考虑，解决难点，那样的喜悦是不言而喻的，在生活中，大家一直试着尝试一些新的事物，当然这其中也会遇到许多的困难假如大家容易放弃，那大家就永远感受不到征服新事物的快乐。
海明威塑造的桑提阿果老爷爷说过：“一个并不是生来就给打败的，你可以尽可能的消灭它却不可以打败他。”所以在生活中大家必须要有永不言败的精神，不放弃期望，相信黑暗过后肯定会有曙光到来。
人可以被毁灭，但不可以被击败！
——题记
*期，我读了《老人与海》，它的作者是美国著名作家海明威，他先后创作了长篇小说《太阳照样升起》和《永别了，武器》都蜚声世界文坛，代表作《老人与海》获得了诺贝尔奖。
本书讲了一位古巴渔夫独自出海捕鱼，钓到了一只马林鱼，回港途中遇上了鲨鱼，一场恶战后，鲨鱼死了，但它们也把老人的大鱼吃得只剩下一具骨架，老人疲倦地回了港。我合上书，渔夫圣地亚哥的顽强和毅力已深深打动了我，他对生活有着美好的希望，他有时甚至感谢磨难，因为磨难，让他的生活更精彩！
老人与鲨鱼搏斗的情节给我留下深刻的印象，他信心满满地与鲨鱼拼搏，老人正手拿鱼叉，神情凝重地盯着鲨鱼，使劲一叉，一条鲨鱼**掉了，接着，老人又杀死了几条鲨鱼，老人经过坚持不懈的努力，终于杀了鲨鱼群。文中，老人与孩子关系的描述也给我留下深刻的印象，老人四次大喴“要是孩子在，就好了！”
在和大鱼拼搏时，老人大喊，他的信心，就可以加倍，并且，可以将大鱼很快拉上来，老人一个人在船上休息时大喊，可以让老人不寂寞，可以老人希望和安慰。啊！圣地亚哥，你靠自己的努力而胜利了！我佩服你！
船只载着老人八十四天未熄的期望逐流飘荡。八十四天了，每天都是空手而归，而每天都是满怀憧憬地出海，哪怕无畏的海承受下一次又一次的挑战，它也没办法打败老人坚强的内心。他在大陆微风的吹拂下清醒，在睡梦中的海声呼啸开始新的一天。
这份“打不败”的精神不知从何而来。是对命运表示不公，还是来自外面的强大打击?的确圣地亚哥已经老了，他已不如从前，但他仍然坚强不屈，勇往直前，甚至视死如归。年青的渔夫每天都有很好的收成，对这个两手空空的老渔夫他们只是取笑。老人对此并不生气，也从未打消过捕鱼的念头，一味地坚持。
不知他对坚持是什么样的理解，但在我看来，坚持是坚强的心抒**感的表现，与喜怒哀乐一样与生俱来。年纪稍长的.渔夫瞧着他，没有表现出心中的难过。他们陪老人一起谈论水流，钓线漂入水中的深度，算是对老圣地亚哥的安慰。
老渔夫圣地亚哥老了，但他沧桑的眼神清澈透明，年青时的模样在深邃的瞳孔里格外明确。太阳已经悬挂在空中，鱼儿也在海里沉浸了好久。这是一次几天几夜的旅游。老人会在这次捕鱼中遇见一只大鱼，银得纯粹，身上的条纹露出尾巴一样的淡紫色。这条纹比他的手指还要宽，鱼眼比望远镜片一样冷漠。他也会遇见一群鲨鱼，帮他结束这场几十天的旅游。
不过不要担忧，不要焦虑，只须坚持，成功就在前方。
早就听了《老人与海》这本书，可惜一直没时间看。直到那星期天下午合上这本书后。感触太多。
记得海明威是这样评价自己的作品的：“一艘船越过世界的尽头，驶向未知的大海，船头上悬挂着一面虽然饱经风雨剥蚀却依旧艳丽无比的旗帜，旗帜上，舞动着云龙一般的四个字闪闪发光——超越极限！”
古巴的一个名叫桑地亚哥的老渔夫，独自一个人出海打鱼，在一无所获的48天之后钓到了一条无比巨大的马林鱼。这是老人从来没见过也没听说过的比他的船还长两英尺的一条大鱼。鱼大劲也大，拖着小船漂流了整整两天两夜，老人在这两天两夜中经历了从未经受的艰难考验，终于把大鱼刺死，拴在船头。然而这时却遇上了鲨鱼，老人与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗，结果大马林鱼还是被鲨鱼吃光了，老人最后拖回家的只剩下一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。就是在这里，我很疑惑：为什么海明威不让老人最后胜利呢？那可是他付出了许多心血才得到的，为什么没有胜利呢？但是我没有注意到，这个渔夫曾经说过：“一个人生下来就注定要被打败。”但是，在我心里，渔夫才是真正的胜利者，我从心底钦佩他的这种勇气、不放弃、坚持到底的精神，他又没有向鲨鱼投降，怎么就输了呢？音乐家贝多芬的命运与这位渔夫很相似，他也没有放弃自己的音乐，自己的，梦想啊。永不言败，正是我们该学*的。
人生这条路漫长而又充满了坎坷，只有敢于挑战高难度的关卡，不管是失败还是胜利，我认为：他将永远都是个胜利者！
有一位年*六十岁的老渔夫，他在一片深海中正钓着鱼，虽然已经捕捉到了许多，但他想要钓更大的鱼。他在途中发现一头比他的船大数十倍的马林鱼，他一直不肯放弃，后来因为马林鱼身上的血腥味，引来了一群饥饿的鲨鱼，但老人坚持不懈，与鲨鱼展开了激烈的厮杀，他既要保护马林鱼，又要和鲨鱼搏斗，最终鲨鱼逃走了，而马林鱼只剩下了一条长长的鱼骨。
其实老人并没有失败，而是胜利了。俗话说：“你可以被敌人毁灭，但不能被敌人打败。”虽然老人没有成功捕获马林鱼，但他的坚强不屈、顽强非常值得我们学*！在学*中，我们大多数同学通常都会在挫折和困难中抬不起头。在背诵课文时，我们很难记住课文的每一个字，就像一块啃不下的肉骨头一样难。但我们只要和《老人与海》中的老人一样，不惧挫折、坚持到底就一定会成功！
不论有多大困难，不论有多难的事，不论有多少挫折与不幸，不论……我也要像《老人与海》里的渔夫一样去勇敢面对生活中的不幸，用勇气战胜重重危机，我们肯定都能逆光飞翔。
在世界文学的宝库中，有一本震撼人心的小说——《老人与海》一开始，我幼稚的猜测这本书讲的只是一个老人与海的故事。可当我读完书后，不禁一震，文中的那位老人令我真服，他今后已深深的烙在我的心中。
这篇小说主要讲了一个普通的老渔夫独自出海打渔，在一无所获得48天之后，居然钓到了一条非常巨大的马林鱼！这是老渔夫从来没有见过、也从来没听说过的一条大鱼，这条大鱼比渔夫的船还要长两英尺的一条大鱼。鱼的力气很大，带着船漂了两天两夜，老渔夫在这两天里受尽了苦难，终于把大鱼刺死。可不幸的是遇上了一条鲨鱼，老渔夫跟鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗。结果大马林鱼被鲨鱼吃光了，只剩下一副鱼骨架。可老渔夫却没有跟困难妥协，虽然他一无所获，但是，他顽强的性格，就像被琢磨过的钻石一样，更加光彩照人。
和这位生活穷困、永不言败的老渔夫相比，我现在的生活算是幸福无比了。我的手上没有茧子、皮肤没有晒斑、夏天开空调、冬天开暖气，可我却还不知足。在学*和生活中，我也会遇到一些挫折，但跟老人一比，真是“小巫见大巫”了。
一个真正的强者，只能被摧毁，而不能被打败。在今后的人生道路上，我立志向老渔夫学*，朝着预定的方向努力、拼搏！
最*我读了海明威的《老人与海》。
《老人与海》讲了这么一个故事：一位名叫桑提亚哥的老渔夫，和一个孩子一起出海捕鱼，但他连续八十四天都没打到鱼。孩子的父母嫌他“背运”，让孩子跟了另一条船。到第八十五天时，老人才钓到了一条无比巨大的马林鱼。这是一条比他的船还长的大鱼。它拖着小船漂流了整整两天两夜。老人在两天两夜经历了巨大的艰难考验，终于用鱼叉把大鱼刺死了。老人把大鱼绑在小船上。然而这时却遇上了鲨鱼的连翻攻击，老人用木棒、小刀、舵等一切能够用来攻击的东西赶走了鲨鱼，却依旧未能保住大鱼。最后，老人带回家的只是一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。
读完这个故事，我立刻被老人的不屈不挠给打动了。是啊，老人明明知道对手实力很强，但他没有丝毫退缩，而是迎面而上，尽自己最大的努力与对手做斗争。正因为有了这种不畏困难的精神，老渔夫才获得了这场生死较量的胜利。
尽管老人最终并没有将大马林鱼安全地带回家，不是最后的胜利者。但是从另一个角度看，老人难道就不是一个令人崇敬的胜利者吗？在暗潮汹涌的海面上，冷冷的海风夹杂着浓烈的血腥味，也许这才是人真正害怕的，但老人至始至终，都没有向大海，向大马林鱼，更没有向鲨鱼妥协和投降，他在精神上取得了虽败犹荣的胜利。唯有不屈的灵魂，才能与大海对抗，与命运对抗，这才是真正的伟大。
“现在不是去想缺少什么的时候，该想一想凭现有的东西你能做什么”——海明威。
这是《老人与海》里面的一句话。它讲述一个年*六旬的老渔夫，在一次单身出海打鱼时，钓到了一条大鱼，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，明明知道对方力量比他强，但还是决心斗争到底。
虽然，老人最后回港时只剩下鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨，看似他是个失败者，但是同时他也是一个胜利者。败在他没有捕回来一条完整的鱼，胜在他坚持不懈的精神。
在现实里，我们也会经历重重困难，面对失败或困难时，大多数人或许消沉低迷或许自暴自弃，这就是弱者。在弱者面前，失败就像这大海里面的波涛，每一次次巨浪袭来都在拍打着那脆弱的心灵，直到最后吞噬了你。
“一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败”。
我们应该学*老人坚持不懈，不惧孤独，面对着狂风暴雨，面对着大鱼的搏斗，依然不畏与其搏斗。我们也应该像他一样，在学*，在生活中，不满足于现状，不惧困难，挣脱层层难关，取得最后的胜利，决不能半途而废！
我认为读书的最大乐趣无过于挑剔了。《老人与海》是我最想吐槽的一本书。
《老人与海》这本书中讲的是老人桑提阿果出海打鱼，历经三天三夜与大海搏斗的故事，最终只是拉回了一条金枪鱼的骨架的故事，可是这骨架有用吗？没有用费那么多力气拖回来干什么？
这个故事有时会被人们认为很励志。但是首先，在捕到金枪鱼后，连人带船被金枪鱼拖着在海面上走。就算是条鱼受伤之后，不可能连人带船在海上航行将*两天，最多只能支撑一天，一天之后它就会筋疲力尽，最后死亡；其次，受伤之后即使钢叉叉着，也会有血腥味，会引来各种鱼类进行捕食，由于金枪鱼有一个人和一条船的负担，加之它受伤了，速度不可能和原来一样快，很快金枪鱼就会被这样一些捕食者猎食，不可能维持两天，作者把这条鱼太神化了。
第二，这条金枪鱼被老人成功捕获后，在航行回去的途中，老人遇到了鲨鱼，当时的情况是：老人只拿了一块木板。作者在《老人与海》中写到老人用木板狠狠地击打着鲨鱼的脑袋，这木板的力量是得有多大啊，当时还有鲨鱼在旁边啃食着，老人只用木板就驱走了它们？这把老人太神化了！其实鱼类的智商是很高的，它们就这样甘愿被动挨打？那可是鲨鱼！不可能老人在两次攻击后还完好无损地回去。真实才可信，可信才感人。
挑剔书我们才能真正地读进去，领悟作者的意图。让我们尝试着挑剔吧，挑剔才真正读进了书本！
说起名著，我最*在读《老人与海》。这本书的作者是美国著名作家海明威，他给我们描写了一个真实的故事。
故事中有一位叫桑提阿果的老人和一位男孩子在海上捕鱼，结果这位老人运气不好，什么鱼也没捕到。于是，男孩子的父母很不高兴，硬把男孩带到其它地方学*捕鱼，老头只好独自远海捕鱼。
老人在海上经过长时间的艰苦奋斗和等待，他终于钓到了一条大鱼，但是双手已被鱼竿扎子划伤而在杆柄上留下一道道血痕，所以没力气把鱼拖上来，只好把鱼扎死，用线把鱼捆起，拖在船的后面。不料，鱼的血腥味引来了一只鲨鱼，老人使出全身的力气与智慧与鲨鱼搏斗，最后扎死了鲨鱼，而捕来的鱼却被鲨鱼已吃掉了40磅。让他更没想到的是，海里来了一大群鲨鱼，这时老人没有害怕，他顽强的与鲨鱼拼搏着，扎子断了，就拿起砍头，终于打败了鲨鱼群。当他回到家时，看到捕来的鱼一点也不剩，只剩下一副令人惊叹的骨架。
人们怀着崇敬的心情前来观看被鲨鱼吃剩的鱼架，都称赞老人的勇敢精神。
在这本书里，作者栩栩如生的描写出桑提阿果爷爷遇到的困难不屈不饶，用尽最大的努力与生活的遇到的困难作斗争。海明威曾说过一句话：“一个人并不是生来就要被打败的，你尽可以消灭它，却不能被打败。”
读了这个故事，我以后也要勇敢的面对生活中的遇到的种种磨难，并且战胜困难。
在寒假里我看了许多许多的书，其中有一本书令我印象最为深刻，它就是《老人与海》的故事。
故事里写的是古巴一个名叫圣地亚哥的老渔夫，他连续84天都没有捕到鱼，被其他的渔夫嘲笑，终于有一天，他捕到了一条大马林鱼，大马林鱼将他的小船在海上拖了两天两夜，他也与大马林鱼搏斗了两天两夜。最后，老渔夫用鱼叉把鱼刺死了。
不幸的是，返回的途中，老渔夫遭到了鲨鱼的袭击，缺乏工具的老渔夫虽然杀死了几条鲨鱼，但是马林鱼却被其他的鲨鱼吃光了，等老渔夫到家后，马林鱼只剩下一副骨头了。
看了《老人与海》这本书，我知道了做什么事情，都要像老渔夫一样，不管遇到什么困难绝不退缩，勇敢面对，持之以恒，坚持不懈。
记得有一次，我在广场上学轮滑，我怕摔倒所以只滑了一下，“啪”，我摔倒了，这时，我看见有一群小朋友们也在学轮滑，他们像离弦的箭“嗖”的一下从我身边滑过，我有点了泄气，但是我并没有失去信心，继续练*，最后，我掌握了技巧，终于学会了。
我要感谢《老人与海》这本书，感谢它让我懂得了那么多的道理，也让我明白了人可以失败，但不可以被击败。
