老人与海读后感10篇20篇

最近在读一本已经享誉很久的国际著作《老人与海》，这是部不长的小说，在海明威的笔下，在寥寥数语之间，一个简简单单的故事却如此令人无限感慨。

这本书初读时记得还是初中时，年幼时仅仅是认为故事情节刺激：古巴老渔夫圣地亚哥连续八十四天没捕到鱼，被别的渔夫看作失败者，可是他坚持不懈，终于钓到了一条大马林鱼，又经历了于数条鲨鱼的搏斗……而过了这么多年再读这本书，感慨颇深。

受到其他渔民的讥讽，整整八十四天没捕到鱼，辛辛苦苦得来的鱼被鲨鱼吃了个精光……面对人和自然的重重打击，老人却依然能坚守自我的一方净土，还可以喊出“人不是生来就被打败的”的豪言壮语，这又是如何的无畏与凛然!但是,不可否认的是，从物质上来看，这位老人是位彻彻底底的失败者，他失去了武器，失去了战利品，还险些失去生命。然而，从精神层面来说，老人又何尝不是一个胜利者呢?纵使老人一次次失败，他从没有绝望过，那份淡定，平息了一切波涛。老渔夫，虽然老了，倒霉、失败;但他仍旧坚持努力，而能在失败的风度上嬴得胜利。他失去了所有努力的成果，但他没有失去的，是一颗勇于抗争的心。

这部小说表现了一种奋斗的人生观，即使面对的是不可征服的大自然，但人仍然可以得到精神上的胜利。也许结果是失败的，但在奋斗的过程中，我们可以看到一个人如何成为一个顶天立地的大丈夫。可以说他的失败比成功更加令人赞叹，他付出了，他拼搏了，他竭尽全力了，这比他的成功更加值得铭记。而作为新时代希望的我们，作为祖国未来的期望的我们，却常常在困难面前低头。无论是学业的困难，还是与同学师长的关系，都可以轻易地让我们束手无策。不想尝试只想得来全不费功夫，不想争取只想坐享其成，这与新时代的我们应有的形象大相径庭。

“两弹元勋”邓稼先突破重重困难回到祖国，面对极差的工作条件，极其落后的科研设备，他咬牙放弃妻子儿女，带着团队隐姓埋名，终于成就了中国的原子弹，让中国甩去了“东亚病夫”的帽子。短短六余载，却让邓稼先黑发变白发。可是，他从未说过一个“累”字，因为，他有着圣地亚哥般的意志和精神，他的眼里没有艰难的环境，他的心里没有自己，只有一颗赤子雄心在熊熊燃烧，只有一个不言败的信念在黑夜中为他照明方向。而观古往今来，中国从来就没有缺过不言放弃的人。古有司马迁遭受宫刑愤作《史记》，有范仲淹“划粥断荠”，今有马云为梦奋斗，有终南山院士为击败病毒抗争。他们都是现代圣地亚哥的精神的代表，都是我们青少年值得学习的光辉典范。

《老人与海》中有句名言：“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一一超越极狠!”对于新时代的我们来说，未来的“大海”不要太广阔，我们面对困难还有什么理由束手无措、坐以待毙?古人云：“人生能有几回搏，此时不搏何时搏。”《老人与海》也说“一个人并不是生来要给打败的，你尽可把他消灭掉，可就是打不败他。”人生本来就是一种无止境的追求。它的道路漫长、艰难，而且充满坎坷，但只要自己勇敢顽强地以一颗自信的心去迎接挑战，他将永远是个真正的胜利者。从老人的身上，我们不难看出海明威想要传达给我们的那种灵魂的尊严。

从小学开始，我便喜欢看驰名世界的美国作家海明威的作品。在他的作品中，使我最为震撼的非《老人与海》莫属了。

《老人与海》的故事十分简单：老人圣地亚歌在连续84天没有捕到一条鱼，但他毫不放弃，第85天他再次出海，几经辛苦终于捕到了一条比他的渔船还大很多的马林鱼，可是在折返渔港的途中，却不断被凶残的鲨鱼袭击。已疲惫不堪的老人又顽强地与鲨鱼搏斗……当他回到海港时，那硕大的马林鱼已仅剩一副空空的骨架！

故事的结局是哀伤的，那是一个在失败和挫折面前绝不低头、不气馁、坚韧不拔的老人，在付出了极大的精力、心血之后，却不能品偿到成功的喜悦的悲伤结局，但我并不觉得老人有任何的悲伤。

老人在捕获马林鱼，与鲨鱼搏斗的时候，虽然不断祈求上帝保佑自己，但那只是求得心灵的慰藉而己。他从没有放弃过一点希望，从没有放弃过一次机会，没有半句怨言，心中只朝着那一个坚定不移的目标奋不顾身地奔去。即使他最后的结局是失败的，但他在这一搏斗的过程，却得到了无数的别人梦寐以求的果实——智慧、经验、力量、勇气……

可以说，老人最终是失败了，但在这一过程中，他获得的比失去的更多。

所以呀，因为考不上大学就轻生的学生们、因为生意失败而自暴自弃的商人们、因为找不到工作而灰心丧意而自甘落后的都市人们，你们的轻生、你们的自暴自弃、你们的灰心丧意、你们的自甘落后实在是太没价值了！

你们为何不细心想想，为了达到你心目中的某一理想或目标，你们拼搏进取，你们努力奋斗，那是多么的意气风发啊！在你们追求的过程中，你们付出了多少的时间、汗水与精力，要解决多少的难题，要运用多少的智慧！那么，试问，你们又何曾失败过呢？你们已经赢得了过程，那比成功还要辉煌的过程！

人们啊，不要过于执着结果了！结果只是稍逊即逝的鲜花而已，过程才是真真实实的果实呀！让我们和《老人与海》中的老人一样，不论结果怎样，让我们为过程而拼搏，为过程而努力，为过程而奋斗吧！

享受过程，才是生活的真谛！

I have read many books, I also learned many knowledge, also let I learned a lot. What impressed me most is a book such a story, Cuban fisherman Santiago continuous 8 days no fish, see in the eye by other fishermen old fisherman just a loser, but his perseverance moved me. He finally landed a big marlin, the big marlin let old fisherman off for three days at sea exhausted, this spirit is worth our learning. The big marlin was killed, tied to the side of the boat.

In return, the old fisherman were repeatedly attacked by a shark, he used up all the way to deal with the shark. Back to harbour, only fish head fish and a bone. Although fish was eaten by sharks, but he will not disappear.

This story mainly tells us that can be hurt, but not defeated. Before, what if I do bad, can only retreat, sometimes, I only speak in words. I am not sure, every examination concerned about their bad.

The old man and the sea, the old fisherman and shark struggle, harpoon was taken away by sharks. He tumbled on the knife strapped to the OARS pierced. The knife is broken, the old fisherman with a short stick. Short stick is lost, he used rudder to play. These is mainly told us not to have no confidence.

我读了许多书，我也从中学到了许多知识，也让我学到了许多道理。让我印象最深的一本书是这样一个故事，古巴老渔夫圣地亚哥连续了8天都没捕到鱼，被别的渔夫看在眼里老渔夫只是一个失败者而已，可是他的坚持不懈打动了我。他终于钓上了一条大马林鱼，这条大马林鱼让老渔夫在海上整整脱了三天才筋疲力尽，这种精神值得我们学习。那条大马林鱼被他杀死了，绑在小船的一边。

在回归时，老渔夫一再遭到了鲨鱼的袭击，他用尽了所有的办法来对付这条鲨鱼。回到港湾时，只剩鱼头鱼尾和一根骨头。尽管鱼肉已经被鲨鱼吃完了，但他的意志并没有消失。

这个故事主要告诉了我们可以被受伤害，但不能被打败。以前，我做什么事情如果做不好，只会退缩，有的时候我只会说丧气的话。每次考试的时候我都没有把握，担心自己考不好。

《老人与海》中，老渔夫和鲨鱼搏斗，鱼叉被鲨鱼给带走了。他把小刀绑在桨上面胡乱扎扎。刀子折断了，老渔夫用一根短的棍子。短棍也给丢了，他用舵来打。这些主要就是告诉我们不要没有信心。

桑提亚哥(Santiago)是个可怜的老头——看上去似乎是的。海明威(Hemingway)以自己精炼的语言塑造了这个形象，可以说，海明威并没有给予老人成功，却赋予老人在压力下优雅而坚韧的形象。

老渔夫在海上一无所获地漂流了84天后钓到了一条巨大无比的马林鱼(marlin)，这是一条比他的渔船还长2英尺的鱼，是在拖着渔船整整两天两夜之后才被刺死的。老人的命运似乎并不成功，他又遭遇了鲨鱼，经过殊死的搏斗，马林鱼只剩下一副骨架。

骨骼是精神的支柱，海明威看似没有让老人桑提亚哥成功，却以光秃秃的骨骼奏出了老人生命的硬度。

“我和你奉陪到死”——这个硬汉面对挑战如是说。暗喻他自身的英雄主义所在，还有他趋向坚韧的力量。故事的头尾，都出现了名叫明诺林(Manolin)的男孩——他希望继承老人的事业。何止捕鱼的事业要被传承，这副铮铮铁骨又何尝不为我们所崇敬、所供奉、所学习呢。在老人的故事里为什么有这个孩子的出现?年轻，象征着力量和希望，即便是老人，他的内心同样是年轻的。文中多次描写到狮子，阿非利加海滩上，狮子在笑闹嬉戏，它们浮现在老人的梦中，一直在老人的心中，同样揭示了老人永远不会老的意志。

海明威的这部小说荣获了诺贝尔文学奖和普利策奖。这个骨头里留有几百块弹片的硬汉作家，恰当地写出了生命的强度，告诉我们怎么去面对生、老、病、死，告诉我们心该有多宽，如海一般。老人是孤独的，他是在理想的道路上前行的旅人，但他又是不孤独的，因为他的意志是那样的坚强。

不妨将鲨鱼看作打击，吃掉你的成功和幸福。但正如那孩子说的：“它没有打败你，它没有。” ("He didnt beat you. Not the fish.")

一个真正的强者，只能被摧毁而不能被击败 ("A man can be destroyed but not defeated")

永不言败，这就是《老人与海》告诉我们的。

我今天读了《老人与海》这本书，它讲的故事令我非常感动。

老人在八十一天没有捕到鱼之后，他终于捕到了一只剑鱼。可是，在他回来的路上，他遇到了一只鲨鱼，他与鲨鱼搏斗一场，最后，老人失去了他捕到的剑鱼，他又空手而归了。

老人永不言败的精神感动了我，在他与鲨鱼搏斗时说：“你可以杀死一个人，但你永远不可以打败他”。老人宁死不屈的精神让我为之震撼，我又想起了司马迁，他也没放弃自己的生命，终于写成了《史记》；我又想起了张海迪，她瘫痪在床，但还是用吉它歌唱自己的人生；我还想起贝多芬，他双目失明，双耳失聪，却写出了9部交响曲……

我终于明白自己平常生活中，无论遇到怎样的困难都不能放弃，要坚持，这样才能成功。

《老人与海》是一个十分有教育意义的故事，下面听我来说说吧。

老人圣地亚哥已经84天没有捕到鱼了，一直陪在他身边的小男孩也到了另一条船。但他毫不气馁，一直坚持出海捕鱼。功夫不负有心人，到了第85天，老人居然钓到一只比船还要大的枪鱼，老人与枪鱼周旋了两天，终于叉中了它，但却引来了无数条鲨鱼争抢。老人又与鲨鱼斗争，最后到岸边时枪鱼只剩下一付骨架了，老人也累倒了。小男孩来看他，却认为老人没有被打败。

小男孩为什么认为到最后一无所有的老人没被打败?原来小男孩被他那坚忍韧不拔的精神感动了。这让我也有同感。其实，这就是老人令人敬佩的地方。他可以被消灭，但他不能被打败。

有些人遇到一点难处就坚持不下来。有些人一遇到难题就空着不写;有些人写作文写到一半不会写，就写别的主题;有些人做事自己一累，就不做……他们和圣地亚哥老人比，那就差多了。我们班有一名同学，他跑步速度很慢，但他坚持练习，终于在一次比赛中得到了全班第七名。当时有许多同学给了他掌声，一开始我不明白为什么给他掌声，现在我终于明白了。

其实，要是每个人都能坚持不懈，世界就会变得更美好;要是每个人都能坚持不懈，太阳就会变得更娇艳……人不是为失败而生的。坚持就是胜利!

失败为什么会闪耀？当然是所谓“虽败犹荣”。

曾经有一位渔夫，他每天都出海捕鱼，却一连八十多天也没有捕到一条鱼，成了其他渔夫的笑柄。再次出海时，他的好运气来了，居然捕到了一条与自己的小船差不多大小的大鱼！老人与之对峙了三天三夜，终于制服了大鱼。但是在回返途中，一条条鲨鱼继相来争夺老人的猎物，老人努力与大鱼抗争，而最后大鱼被吃得只剩骨架，老人再一次失败了。

这是一个真实的故事，在海明威的笔尖下显得简洁直白，朴素的语言让我们身临其境：蓝天白云，年迈的渔夫，凶狠的鲨鱼，深蓝的大海，在这片大海中，老人绽放出了最美丽、最耀眼的光芒……

遭到人们的嘲笑，老人的心情是沮丧的。但从他对男孩说的“可我们有（信心），是不？”我能感受到希望和信心从未在他的心里消失过，反倒是更为强烈，更为闪耀。男孩就如他唯一的朋友，两人更是心灵相通。不知为什么，在小男孩与老人的平淡无奇的对话中，稚嫩的男孩显出了一些成熟，沧桑的老人染上了一丝可爱，他们之间的情感，像亲情，也像友情，这就是缘分的所在吧。

出海遇见一条巨大的马林鱼，可是老人却如何也占不到优势，掌握权在马林鱼手里，小船随着大鱼的游动而前进，几次老人都由于鱼的突然前进而受伤，鲜血不仅仅滴在了船上，落在了海里，更是染红了我的心。老人每一次的自言自语都体现出了他潜内心中的孤独，他对手上的各种伤口毫不体现出疼痛，且说出许多十分幽默的话语：“手，你感觉好些了吗？”“手啊，你快点停止抽筋吧。”手成了他的“伙伴”，又一次让我对他的孤独产生了说不出的情感。

返回途中不幸地遭到鲨鱼的争夺，老人冒着生命的险境，利用一切的工具，努力保护自己的大鱼，与鲨鱼争斗。最后只剩下了船桨，他没有灰心，而是拿起船桨打在鲨鱼的头部，一下，一下，一下……大鱼已被吃得所剩无几，但是这块鱼骨中却蕴含着老人的勇敢、耐心与智慧，更是含着老人的呐喊：我绝不会向你们低头屈服！

海明威的语言十分简洁，毫不矫揉造作，却将事情描述得十分清楚，一字一句，似乎都在他的笔下有了魔力，有了生命，栩栩如生，这是我喜爱海明威作品的一个原因。这样的写作风格，将一个“硬汉”的所有精神与情感坦率地表达了出来。

事实上，老人没有失败，他在一整个过程中体现了许多可贵的精神品质：坚持、朴素、勇敢、机智、耐心……我在读这篇小说前，我从来没有想过一个孤独的、沧桑的老人会有如此的品质值得我们去学习，这些精神将会永远地闪耀，就如海上的灯塔，能鼓励那些自暴自弃、绝望潦倒的人们重现希望与目标。

“人并不是生来就要吃败仗的，一个人可以被消灭，但不可以被打败。”

今天，我把《老人与海》这一本书读完了，这一本书主要讲了一位老人在海上钓鱼，可他一连84没有钓上一条鱼。

其实这本书我读完后，并没有完全理解这本书的意思，于是我就问了妈妈，妈妈就又给我讲了一遍，我才明白了一些。

老人一连84天没有任何收获，可是他没有放弃，仍然不停的给自己加油鼓劲，最后他决定去深海里捕捉一条大大的鱼，于是他就出发了。最后虽然他钓到了一条好大的鱼，但在在往回返的时候却被大鲨鱼给吃光了，只留下了一条巨大的鱼骨头。他很伤心。

看完这本书，我心里有点难过。我觉得老人很可怜。

书读万卷，其义自现。书中自有黄金屋，书中自有颜如玉。这个暑假我利用闲暇的时间阅读了一本世界名著，——《老人与海》。

老人与海主要讲述的是一位年迈的老人在经历近九十天的风雨之后，抓住了自己心爱的大马哈鱼，结果却在归航途中被其它动物吞噬，最后只留下一具白花花骨架的故事。令人读了心酸，读了落泪。但是书中却没有过多的悲情描写，没有描写这个老人生活是有多么困苦，多么艰难，上天多么对他生活的不公，对他命运的不公，而是将更多的笔墨头道投入到她坚强乐观、积极向上，对待生活，如同一簇永不熄灭的火焰一般，正能量的描写，让人觉得在悲痛之余感到更多的而是正义的力量，而是对生命的渴望，对价值的追求，对自己人生以及各种各样事物的永不放弃。

文中的老人。是一个很乐观的人，他每天都会与他那位“忘年交”的小男孩一起在一块吃饭，一起说笑，一起看足球比赛。记得那一次，都很晚了，他们仍然有说有笑，非常舒适惬意。虽然今天一天的收获也没有，但是却非常的开心，因为他所支持的足球队赢了！这要是放在我们生活的周围，整天看到那些挣不到钱，那些事业不成功的人唉声叹气，而书中的老人却是那样的坚强乐观，这又不何尝是我们所能学习的榜样呢？

书中的老人同样是一个非常勤奋的人，每天天不亮，那位男孩正在睡觉的时候，他便能早早的穿上衣服起床了。而最后那位体贴的男孩也了解到他的痛苦，了解到他的辛劳，竟然赶在他还没有起床之前，偷偷的起床，想要和他一起去捕鱼，他还甚至为老人盖上了一层被子，文中的男孩真是一位体贴老人孝敬老人的好孩子。但是在我们生活的周围常常看到这样的一幕：父母、老人全都围着一个小公子或者小公主在团团转，他们想要吃的便伸手拿去，他们想要喝的便叫他的爷爷奶奶帮忙端来，他们就像是使唤奴隶一样使唤自己的亲人，与这位书中的男孩相比，他们真的是汗颜啊。

《老人与海》，这本书是一本非常经典且短小精悍的书目，文章的作者也因此获得了诺贝尔奖。我刚开始还以为这部书仅仅是一部普通的小说，但是在看完之后，那种深深蕴含其中的精神力量震撼到撞击了每一个人的心灵。

“一个人并不是生来要被打败的，你尽可以把它消灭掉，可就是打不败他。”圣地亚哥说。读完这本书让我更直观的体会到了这句话的背后的真正含义。

合上这本书，我的心依然沉浸在汹涌澎湃的大海中。它让我懂得了什么是坚持，什么是顽强。每一次，圣地亚哥的这句话，在我面对困难时，给予我莫大的勇气。

在浩瀚无边的大海中，一只小小的渔船正驶向远方，那正是圣地亚哥的船，它像一头金色的狮子，毫不畏惧地冲向翻腾的巨浪……

海风掠过大海，弥漫着一股血腥味，圣地亚哥掌控着船，拖着一架巨大的鱼骨，在茫茫大海中返航。这一次，圣地亚哥终于捕到了一条大鱼。这条大鱼引来了许多凶猛的鲨鱼，刚刚制服大鱼的圣地亚哥筋疲力尽，但是圣地亚哥为了保护辛辛苦苦捕来的鱼，与鲨鱼们斗了两天两夜，始终没有退缩。最后，大鱼只剩下一架残骨。

虽说最终的结果还是失败，但他在我的心中永远是英雄。一位英雄，就是不怕一切困难，顽强不屈。圣地亚哥在经历了84次挫败后继续出海打鱼，与大鱼周旋，与鲨鱼搏斗，可以说，他的经历谁都没有经历到过。可就这样一次次的挫折，磨炼了老人顽强的意志力，造就了一个不败的神话。

前几天，在新闻当中，我又看到了霍金，他与圣地亚哥有几分相似。霍金拥有异乎常人的头脑，17岁就考上了剑桥大学，21岁时得知自己患上了不治之症后，消沉过一段时间。医生当时预测他最多只能活两年，但两年后情况并没有比想象的糟糕。霍金充满了斗志，胸怀显得更款管，克服了重重困难，反而继续为人类的科学发展做出了杰出的贡献。在他的眼中，重要的是一个人生命的价值，而是他克服困难的意志力。

面对磨难，我们不仅要付出艰辛的汗水，即使最后没有成功。，既然努力过了，就不会有遗憾。这正是挫折搭成了一座通向强者的桥。人的一生当中，只要我们秉持一颗不屈的心，总有一天我们会踏上成功的道路，人生也会更加精彩!

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近两天，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！

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 .

我第一次知道老人与海这个故事是我在初中时，历史老师课上给我们看的，但是那次是通过电脑下载电影来看的。电影中我看到了一位不服输不放弃不相信命运的老渔夫。

故事中主要是在围绕着老人，大马哈鱼以及大海中潜在的一系列危险。我看的这部电影是由《老人与海》这本书中的故事情节拍摄的，而这本书的作者，海鸣威，他以其独特的写作手法和写作思维，给读者展现的并不是传统结局(老人胜利而归)，而是老人空手而归，这种结局给读者更加大的思考，这样，读者就会更加会注意到主人公的过程而不是结果。我想海鸣威他这样写的目的也就在于此。

老人与海的真正协作目的不是为了告诉我们读者这样一个故事，而是告诉我们有这样一种精神是值得我们每一人去学习的：锲而不舍，努力拼搏，不畏风险，改变命运。

我是在保送(2)班班主任的提示下，才到网上寻找这本书来读的，这几天读了之后，在文字和人物精神上有了更多的认识，我不说是重新的认识，因为电影已经通过强悍的视觉，听觉两大方面为我们生动形象地展现了故事的大概面貌，这很大程度上满足了读者时间上的允许范围，但是由于电影并不是原汁原味的，而是被导演先咀嚼过，再送到我们嘴边的精神食粮，不是吗?读书比看电影更能真实地完整地接近作者的内心世界。作者的内心世界即使细微，哪怕藏匿得很好，也会在其笔尖在不经意间流露在文字深处，也许这就是文学创作的真正魅力。

我从《老人与海》这本书中看到的是作者更多的对老人的心理活动和语言表情的细微描写。这是我从看点验的过程中难以捕捉到的，因为电影放映的时间短暂，而对于书，如果你拥有它并渴望拥有它，那么它就会成为你忠诚的奴仆，他会等待这你去读它，它可以等你一天，一月，一年，知道你死或直到你不需要它，书它会等待你任何时候读它的任何部分，不是吗?

我再联系起了我不久前在胜利剧院观看的北京大学曹文轩教授的讲座，我想起了他所说到的文章的魂，想到了他所说到的文学的未来发展趋势，我突然想到了一本书的存在意义，书的存在实不过为了表达作者的某些观点，想法，心情，或记录某些相对重要的内容，或其他。但是书终将成为人们要看的载体，如果书对人是无用的不如不要书。

一个普通的渔夫，一条普通的大鱼。在茫茫大海上，用智力和耐力开启了一场看似平凡又不平凡的对决。这本书叫《老人与海》，它并不厚，但它教会给我许多知识。

这个渔夫叫桑提亚哥，捕鱼前八四十天都没有捕到鱼，第八十五天的时候，他架着自己的小船，去捕鱼了，功夫不负有心人，他终于钓到了一条鱼。但是这条鱼的力气特别大，把小船都带动了起来，就这样，一次智力和耐力的战斗开始了！

经过很久很久，虽然他带回的只是大鱼的骨架，但是已经足够让人吃惊。

一个人并不是生来就要给打败的，你可以尽力消灭他，但就是打不垮她。这句话引出了主题，是啊，我很同情他，但是我更敬佩他。同时呢，我还要学习他的乐观，还有他的坚持不懈，相信也许有时有些事只要你等一等，结果也许没有你想的那么糟。

读了这本书以后，我学会了很多很多，我相信大家也会学到很多，我希望以后能跟大家一起分享。

多少次在书本里我体会大海的美丽，多少回梦了我看见大海的倩影……今天我终于如愿以偿，来到了青岛，来到了大海身边。

果然名不虚传，大海是如此美丽！在阳光的照射下，海面上闪烁着无数的金光。点点渔舟，构成了海面上一道亮丽的风景线。远边小岛忽隐忽现，会把你引进一种神秘的境界。

金色的沙滩上不时传来歌声与笑声，人们尽情享受着大海给予的欢乐与祥和！

突然，一位白发苍苍的老人映入我的眼帘，只见她穿着一件绿色泳衣，皮肤黑里透红，眼睛炯炯有神。“咦？她来干什么？”我心里犯嘀咕，“她是不是来凑热闹、赶时髦吧？”我情不自禁上前询问：“奶奶，您来这里干什么？”奶奶风趣地笑着说：“看我这身打扮还用问吗？”看着我和其他人怀疑的目光，浴场管理员介绍说：“她今年以87岁了，坚持冬泳40多年，一年四季从未间断过。”

下午，四时左右，海面上刮起大风，平静的海面一下子变得波涛汹涌。海浪发出震耳欲聋的吼声，一层卷着一层扑向岸边，打湿了不少游人的裤管。呵！好凉啊！人们惊呼着向后退去。这时，只见那位老人快步向前走去，一下扑进海里，老人好象摸透了大海的脾气，一会儿蛙泳，一会儿仰泳，挥动着自己灵活的双臂。大海将老人紧紧拥抱在怀里。

真是了不起，我的怀疑早已抛到九霄云外，一种敬佩之情油然而升。

“咔嚓”一声，我在老人与大海的背影下留下了这美好的瞬间。

锲而不舍，金石可镂;锲而舍之，朽木不折。

《老人与海》一书叙述了一位贫穷的老人出海捕鱼时，捕到了一条大马林鱼，老人在与大马林鱼争斗的过程中，虽然受了不少伤，但是他依然目标专一，持之以恒，战胜了大马林鱼，打败了前来抢食的鲨鱼，将大马林鱼带回了他家乡的港口。

只有经历过风雨才能见彩虹。人生亦如此，唯有目标专一，持之以恒，才会拥有美好的明天。古往今来，凡是在事业上有所成就的人，哪个背后没有付出过辛勤的汗水?我国清代著名书画家郑板桥——他以前的字体软弱无力。他立志要把字练好。于是，便以坚忍不拔的毅力天天练习，日复一日，年复一年，从不间断，终于写出了一手遒劲潇洒的好字。使他的字与诗﹑画一起，被后人赞为“三绝”。

我国晋代大文学家左思，他决心致力于文学。从此一心一意，勤勤恳恳，专心致志，广读诗书。终于在文学上取得了巨大成就，写出了千古流传，家喻户晓的《三都赋》。

徐霞客他从小立志要成为一名著名的地理学家。他跋山涉水，餐风露宿，历经千辛万苦。终于写成了著名的《徐霞客游记》……是啊，唯有目标专一，持之以恒，才能有所作为，有所成就。我的表姐，她十年如一日，刻苦读书，孜孜不倦，终于实现了她考入清华的理想。这，不也是目标专一，持之以恒吗?

宝剑锋从磨砺出，梅花香自苦寒来。目标专一，持之以恒，有志者事竟成!让我们一起铭记这句名言，让我们的明天更加美好，让我们一起叩开成功之门，戴上成功的花环!

This year summer vacation i read the american well-known writer hemingways novel " old person and sea ". i extremely admire in the novel the senior fishermans will he let me understand one person certainly must have relentless spirit only then could obtain successfully.

the novel description is one year near sixty years of age senior fisherman when alone goes to sea in one fishing fished one big fish actually did not pull. the senior fisherman socialized several days after the fish only then discovered this was the big marlin which one surpassed the oneself fishing boat several fold although knew perfectly well very difficult to win but still did not give up. afterwards and further because in the big marlin wound fish fishy smell brought in several crowds of shark fish snatches the food but the old person still did not hope like this to give up finally highlighted encircles tightly returned to the big fish belt the fishing port lets other fishermen not admire already.

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... " when i extremely admire this senior fisherman because he by now already projected on some fish but he had not settled to the present situation but was approaches the bigger goal advance. again has a look us usually meets one slightly is difficult we all complain incessantly. we will be the motherland future will be supposed to like this old person same mind lofty aspiration will even better pursue even better the bigger goal.

when i read " the big marlin start fast to gather round the young fishing boat hover twined the cable on the mast the old person right hand lifted up high the steel fork leapt the water surface in it the flash did utmost throws to its heart one wail ended the big fishs life it was static static floats on the water surface... " when my heart also liked together the big stone falls. i extremely admire old person that kind do not dread the relentless spirit although knows the match strength is very strong but he not slightly flinches but is welcomes difficultly above. just because had this kind of spirit the senior fisherman only then achieved this life and death contest success. we also must study senior fishermans spirit in life handles the matter does not fear the difficulty only then can obtain successfully.

After I read the book that is called “The old man and the sea” I was deeply moved by the old man and his spirit.

The book written by Hemingway tells us a story that an old man whose name is Santiago went out to do some fishing on the sea on his own but down on his luck he hadn’t caught any fish for 84 days. Next day he caught a huge marlin which is bigger than his boat and took a formidable battle with it. He beat it at the end. When he was on the way home the smells of blood of the marlin draw a lot of sharks’ attention and they fought for it. In order to protect the marlin and him the old man tried his best to fight with them. After a cruel fight he won it and came back home tiredly. Although he only got a skeleton of the giant marlin at last he is also a great hero in many people’s heart.

In the article the old man is a great man. Although he failed for many time in his life he never gave up. He is a steel-willing man who insisted his dream and work hard. You can destroy him but you can’t beat him. Whatever he faced to he would never yield to the difficult which shows a strong spirit.

In our lives I think we should learn something from the old man which will make us have a more valuable life. Whenever and wherever we meet trouble we should never give up and try our best to overcome it. We should always keep on our dream and make it come true. Every one has his backbone which can’t be bended by anyone which is very important for everyone in his whole life. If we meet difficulty in our life we should face it bravely and work out some way to solve the problem whatever would happen at last. We can be destroyed but we can’t be beat by anything or anyone. If you failed for many times in your life you wouldn’t surrender because if you try to do it you may succeed in your life but if you do not do it you would not be succeed forever. Everyone has his advantages and disadvantages in his life but we should face to our disadvantages and we must be confident which would also make us be confident of our life. We should have faith in what we do in our life we will have a more beautiful life in the future and our dream will come true. We should pay more attention to what we do during our life rather than what we will get at the end because I think it is more important than any thing you get finally. If you enjoy you life not something you get you will have a meaningful life and a noble spirit. It will hurt you when you pay more attention to what you get in the future. It will also make you do something wrong which is bad for other people our society and our country.

I’m impressed by the sentence which is “We can be destroyed but we can’t be beat.” I think everyone should do it no matter what happen in our life. This book makes me know something I didn’t know in the past. The book and the old man have a great influence in my life. I love this book.

一个年近六旬的老渔夫的永不言弃的精神在吸引着我，让我第一体会到了读书时如饥似渴的感觉，一页一页地读了起来，竟然有些爱不释卷呢。48天出海打鱼的一无所获后，他能一如既往的继续劳作。能经受住时间考验的人，才是真正的英雄。再一次出海打鱼中，钓到了一条老人没见过甚至没听说过的大鱼，大马林鱼足足比老人的船还长两英尺，明知很难取胜，但仍不放弃。鱼大劲也大，拖着小船整整漂流了两天两夜，老人在这两天两夜中经历了从未经受的艰难考验，最后终于把大鱼刺死，拴在船头。然而因为大马林鱼伤口上的鱼腥味引来了鲨鱼，然而老人的左手此时正好在抽筋，只能用右手，用木棒、捕到的剑鱼的嘴等一切可以用来攻击的武器自卫，与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗，结果大马林鱼还是被鲨鱼吃光，老人最后拖回家的是一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。但老人还是得到了众多渔夫的称赞，老人的价值已在那追捕马林鱼的过程中充分地体现了。曾经为自己的理想努力追求过、奋斗过，他就无愧做一个胜利者。

文中有这么一段老渔夫想：这里离海岸实在是太近了，也许在更远的地方会有更大的鱼，他的不安于现状、向着更大的目标前进的精神渲染了我。现在的我们就要像这位老人一样胸怀大志，去追求更大的目标。

读到大马林鱼开始快速地围着小渔船游动，将缆绳缠绕到了桅杆上，老人右手高举着钢叉，在它跃出水面的一瞬间，竭尽全力地向它的心脏掷去，一声哀鸣结束了大鱼的生命，它静静地浮在水面上时，悬着的一颗心也终于落了地。老人那种毫不畏惧、坚持不懈的精神值得钦佩，明知对手很强，却能迎难而上。正是有了这种精神，老渔夫才获得最终胜利。

正如作者所说的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？

“一艘穿越过世界的尽头，驶向未知的大海，船头上悬挂着一面虽然饱经风雪的旗帜，旗帜上舞动着云龙一般的四个字闪闪发光—超越极限！”作者海鸣威是这样评价他的作品《老人与海》的。

《老人与海》塑造了一个经典的硬汉形象。古巴的一个名叫桑提亚哥的老渔夫，独自一个人出海打鱼，在一无所获的84天后掉到了一条无比巨大的马林鱼。这是老人从来没有见过也没有听说过的比他的船还长2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，栓在船头。然而这时却遇到了鲨鱼，老人同鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗，接过鲨鱼吃光了大马林鱼，老人最后拖回家的只是一副光秃秃的鱼骨架。

“人尽可能被毁灭，但却不可能被打倒。”这就是《老人与海》想揭示的哲理。无可否认，只要是人就都会有缺陷。当一个人承认了这个缺陷并努力去战胜它而不是去屈从它的时候，无论他是否战胜自身的这个缺陷，他都是一个胜利者，因为他已经战胜了自己对缺陷的妥协，他是自己勇气和信心的胜利者。渔夫就是勇于挑战自己勇气和信心的胜利者。他始终没有向大马林鱼更没有向鲨鱼妥协和投降。就如贝多芬所说：“我可以被摧毁，但不可以被征服”。

人性是强悍的，人类本身有自己的限度，但向限度挑战，超越它们，这个限度才被扩大，更大的挑战摆在眼前。像老鱼夫这样的英雄是我们永远尊重的。

因为他带给我们的是人类最为高贵的自信。
