老人与海读后感10篇【19篇】

现实是残酷无情的，在这里，只有一条法则：弱肉强食，适者生存！但，人不是为失败而生的，一个人想要在这残酷的现实世界中生存下去，就必须要有坚强的意志与勇气。合上这本《老人与海》，我好似在广袤无垠的大海上迷离，一个人不是生来就要被打败的，你可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。

《老人与海》的故事很简单，写的是老渔夫圣地亚哥在连续84天没捕到鱼的情况下，终于在第85天钓上了一条大马林鱼，但这条鱼实在太大了，把他的小船在海上拖了三天才筋疲力尽，他杀死了马林鱼绑在小船的一边，可想而知，这需要多大勇气和多强的意志啊！而在归程中又碰到了鲨鱼的袭击，老人与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗，但最后回港时只剩下鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨。

他这种坚持不懈，自信的精神难道不值得我们学习吗？俗语道：不以成败论英雄。虽然老渔夫没有把完整的马林鱼拖回海岸，但他那坚强的意志，勇敢的精神丝毫不比真正的英雄逊色。老渔夫在精神世界中已经成为了历尽磨难而变得顶天立地，战无不胜的巨人了。这不就是所谓的英雄吗？

“愚公移山”，“铁杵成针”，“冰冻三尺”等等，不都意味着“有志者，事竞成”吗？他们“知其不可为而为之”的可贵品质非常值得我们学习。做任何事情都要有坚持不懈的精神。碰到困难也不要放弃。你可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。我们不能被生活打败，更不能被自己打败！要勇于面对自己，面对自己将要面对的困难。相信自己，坚持不懈，一定能够，克！服！它！

《老人与海》中有句名言：一个人不是生来就要被打败的，你可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。这句话反衬出了老渔夫的勇敢意志，而这也是老渔夫内心深处的独白……

在现实生活中，碰到困难是难免的，最重要的是要勇敢面对，有坚持不懈的精神，从失败中吸取教训。再想想自己，每当碰到一点点困难就不耐烦，不值得好好反思吗？

当我看到“老渔夫想：这里离海岸实在太近了，也许在更远的地方会有更大的鱼”时，我不禁感叹：虽然老渔夫已经捕到了一些鱼，但他并没有安于现状，而是有着更远大的目标。我们也是一样，不能安于一隅之地，一定要回望过去，展望未来。向自己的远大目标勇往直前！正所谓：“无目标，怎进步？”这本书给我们的启示是多方面的，更需要我们认真地去体会。

为了一个美好的未来，我们定要全力以赴，以全新的面貌去挑战困难与末知，相信成功不再遥远。古人云：山重水复疑无路，柳暗花明又一村。我们要满怀信心的去迎接挑战。因为我相信成功永远属于我们自己！让我们把老渔夫的精神品和铭记于心，争当新时代好队员！

The old man and the sea mainly tells the story: an old fisherman for eighty-four days without fish, met with a giant marlin on the sea. After three days and three nights of struggle, the old man finally killed the big marlin, but he on the way home, but being attacked by a shark, when he returned, the big marlin only fish head fish left.

This story, but tell the immortal hero, although the old man fails, but thats just the sort of strength and a failure of the body, of his confidence and hope that it is impossible to burst. "People are not born for defeat. A man can be destroyed, but can not be one to beat! This is a tough guy spirit!" A very valuable spirit!

《老人与海》主要讲述了：一位老渔夫连续八十四天没有捕到鱼的情况下，在大海上遇到了一条巨大的马林鱼。经过了三天三夜的较量，老人终于杀死了大马林鱼，可他返航的途中 ，却被鲨鱼袭击了，当他返回时，那条大马林鱼只剩下鱼头鱼尾了。

这篇故事，却讲出不朽的英雄的主义，虽然老人失败了，但那只是那种力气和肉体上的一次失败，他的信心与希望是不可能破灭的。“人不是为了失败而生的。一个人可以被毁灭，但是不可以被人给打败!这是硬汉精神!”一种十分可贵的精神!

大海像一只没有受伤的野兽，咆哮着，像一座大山向小船压来。船上的老汉也是为了他的大鱼与大海搏斗着，与鲨鱼搏斗着。最近，我借阅了《老人与海》，感到了一个老人自己坚韧不拔、勇往直前的宝贵文化精神。

这本书讲述了一个老人钓鱼岁的失败了很多次的故事，但坚持海，整天在烈日下钓鱼。终于有一天，大鱼上钩，老人与它搏斗了五天五夜，才拉上了船。但谋事在人，成事在天应该进来的风，风暴和鲨鱼的日子。最后，老人回岸边，只剩下骨架的鱼......

我最敬佩的，便是那捕鱼的老人了。在他的身上，我挖掘发展出了许多都是金子作为一般的品质。他那勇往直前，坚韧不拔，不成功不放弃的品质，在我的脑海里已经留下了一个深刻的印象。他的勇往直前，更是让我记忆犹新的就是他为了提高自己的鱼，敢于进行面对这种可怕的自然环境灾难，以及让人闻风丧胆的鲨鱼群。他敢于积极面对这些事实，用他那清澈的眼睛、宽厚的肩膀，与勇敢的心擎起一片属于天空。当遇到金融风暴时，他与大鱼需要紧紧联系依靠我们在一起；可当他们遇到各种鲨鱼时，他进拿起木棒，不顾企业自身的安危与它们之间搏斗。他的勇往直前深深地感动了我。

书中的老人也让我想起了为我们中华人民共和国而战的革命战士。 秋瑾被钉穿的手指都沉默了，不透露一点信息。 除了她，还有成千上万的革命战士，他们为我们的国家付出了一切，他们是多么的勇敢，用自己的鲜血为我们的胜利铺平了一条血淋淋的道路，他们被刻在我的心里。

我们做任何事情，都要勇敢面对，因为勇气，是通往成功的黄金之路。

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.

信念是生命的源泉，它让小草破土而出，迎接生命的第一缕阳光；它让平凡的蚕蛹挣脱茧的束缚，开始第一次飞翔；它让生命短暂的夏蝉唱响整个夏天；它让坚强的人们战胜巨大的困难。

最近我读了《老人与海》，书中的老人让我非常感动和佩服。他是个渔夫，孑然一身，驾着小船。在墨西哥湾流中钓鱼，连续84天一无所获。我们可以想象一下，84天没捕到鱼是个多么大压力！

但书中的主角桑地亚哥却不这么觉得，希望和信心从未在他的心中消失过，因为他还记得，曾经他有八十七天没有捕到大鱼，但接下来的三个礼拜却天天捕到大鱼。

八十五是个吉利数字。那天凌晨时分，月亮还没有消失，老人出海了！他的信心焕然一新，如同乍起的微风。老人终于在第85次捕到了一条大鱼，但这条鱼实在太大了，把他的小船在海上拖了三天才筋疲力尽，他杀死绑在小船的边上，但在归程中又碰到鲨鱼的袭击，于是，老人与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗，最后回来时只剩下鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨。这些可能在一些人眼里他一文不值，但在老人眼里却是巨大的收获。

是什么力量让老人坚持下来？当我读到作者海明威在书中的一句名言：“一个人并不是生来就要给打败的，你可以很被毁灭，却不能打败。”我豁然明白，老人就是靠着这种顽强和勇敢的意志，挑战一次又一次危险，征服了大鱼，战胜了鲨鱼。

回想自己，经常碰到一点点困难就不耐烦，经常因考试成绩不好而失落，对自己没有信心，这些和经受了那么多打击的老渔夫相比，是多么不值一提。

“世界无难事，只怕有心人。”我们要像书中的老渔夫一样，心中有颗信念的种子，勇敢迎接挑战，努力不放弃。

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。

一个站在精神之巅的英雄

假期来无事，我又重新潜心拜读了一遍《老人与海》，读时却不禁感受到颇多了，仿佛不是在阅读一本枯燥的书，而是在阅读一颗生动的心，一棵赤红的心，一颗跳动的充满激情的心。那是数年前我体会不到的，我的感怀也由此开始了。

精练的文字，配上扣人心统的叙述，即使篇幅不长的小说，也以成功地牵动读者的心。《老人与海》讲述了这样一个故事：一位圣地亚哥的渔夫连续八十四天没捕到鱼，被同行看成失败者，可是他坚持不懈，终于钓到了一条大鱼，大鱼把他的小船在海上拖了三天三夜，最终被老人杀死了，绑在船的另一边。老人在归途中一再遭到鲨鱼的袭击，但他人然斗志昂扬，像一个我斗士在大海这残酷的我斗场上顽强地民开搏斗，历经了重重艰难险阻。虽然老人捕的鱼在归航的途中只剩下了头，鱼尾和一条长长的脊骨，但丝毫没有削弱老人的坚强意志。

远涉千里，深入大海，为的只是一条鱼吗？说到底，人的真正胜利也只能是业的胜利。人在物质上无论取得多大的成就，都不能赢得我们崇高的敬意。只有精神和气魄的胜利，才使我感动，才使我和追随老人的孩子一样，为他的悲壮落泪。只要是人，就都会有缺陷。当一个人承认了这个缺险，这个缺陷并努力去战胜它，而不是去屈从它的时候，无论他能否最终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。老渔夫就是敢于挑战自身缺陷及自己勇气和信心的胜利者。从世俗胜利观的我度看，老渔夫不是最后的胜利者，因为尽管开始他战胜了大马林鱼，但是最终大马林鱼还是让鲨鱼吃了，他只是带着大马林鱼的骨架子回到了岸上，也就是说，鲨鱼才是胜利者。可是，在理想主义者眼里，老渔夫就是胜利者，因为他始终没有向大海、大马林鱼和大白鲨鱼妥协投降！

一个人可以被毁灭，但不以被打败，外在肉体可以接受折磨，内在的意志却是神圣不可侵犯。一方面倒下，恰恰是另一方面的站起，在一个宛如梦境的场景中，必定会出现胜利的结局，这是圣地亚哥的灵魂，也是他无论如何都不会倒下的精神层面。我认为，这才是伟大的定义。

老人外表平凡，内心却坚强敢。无论如何，没有人敢说他不够伟大，没有人敢说不是英雄。

英雄或许要有强大的肉体、令人称赞的作为、流传四方的美誉，但这些都不是最重要的，甚至可以说可有可无。一个英雄，便是拥有精神力量的巨人。所为的英雄者，敢为人之所不敢为，敢当人之所不敢当。所为英雄者，坚强刚毅，屡败屡战。他让自己成为一个永不被击倒的人，他在业领域没有失败的记录，也没有失败的预兆，甚至没有失败的概念。自信、坚持不懈、拼搏、一个老人的故事，一个英雄的启迪。

那我呢？或许我觉得，所谓雄雄离我太遥远，但是距离产生美，而美又是在我们身边的。我不是什么英雄，也许永远，永远不会是。但是没关系，我有英雄之志，这就足够了。我不会让我迈向成功的步伐停滞，也不会让我追梦的凤凰坠落。不屈服于困难，不低头于失败，脚踏实地的做事情，把不值得变成值得，把不可能变成可以。只有这样，我才告诉自己，我是最棒的、最成功的，像老渔夫一样永不言弃、坚持不懈。

浮想联翩之间，我才领悟到，所谓老当益壮，壮的意义是一个英雄的努力，他在现实中失败，却在精神上达到了巅峰！这不正是人们所需要的精神吗？

“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。

Read "the old man and the sea" this article, I could not help secretly for Hemingways masterpiece. Image lifelike the story describes how an old man with a firm belief deftly will be a big fish to his humble, and how to get rid of "invasion of the enemy" -- a shark. Although he failed to bring the whole fish back, but his spirit is worth our learning: people must have the self-confidence, he will say to yourself "I can do it!" . You think about it, if the old man caught a fish, 7, 8 times more than himself he saw was afraid, put the fish, he can put the fish back to Hong Kong? No, no, he relies on ordinary people to accept such determination, to catch the big fish.

In our class, there is learning of poor students, they are lack of confidence to oneself, plus others ironic, then, they have no interest in learning, thus make grades decline gradually, falling...

Now the society developed, if can clone the self-confidence, that I must have a clone, send it to lack of confidence friend!

读了《老人与海》这篇文章，我不禁暗暗为海明威的巨作叫好。这个故事形象逼真的描写了一个老人是怎样靠着坚定的信念灵巧地将一头大鱼捕到自己那简陋的船上，又是怎样赶走“来犯之敌”――鲨鱼。虽然他没能将整条鱼运回去，但他的精神值得我们学习：人要有自信心，遇事要对自己说“我能行!”。大家想一想，如果这位老人钓到了一条比自己大上7，8倍的鱼，他见了就害怕，把鱼放了，那他能将鱼运回来为自己争光吗?不，不能，他正是靠着这样常人难以接受决心，才能捕到这条大鱼。

在我们班上，有学习差的同学，他们就是对自己信心不足，再加上旁人的讽刺，这时，他们对学习毫无兴趣，从而使学习成绩逐步下降，下降……

现在的社会发达了，如果能克隆自信心的话，那我一定克隆一份，将它送给信心不足的朋友!

《老人与海》是美国作家海明威于1951年在古巴写的的.一篇中篇小说，文章讲述了一位老人圣地亚哥，在捕获一只大马林鱼时，与其搏斗，战胜了许多常人难以想象的困难后，终于将其捕杀。但在归来的路途中，老人经历了更大的阻挠：闻着血腥味而来的一群群鲨鱼。鲨鱼贪婪的夺取着老人的劳动成果，圣地亚哥为捍卫自己的猎物，与其进行了更为残酷的斗争。一路上杀死了众多的掠夺者，但大马林鱼也只剩下了一副骨架，但老人却虽败犹荣，获得了精神上的最终胜利。

老人圣地亚哥是一个崇高的人物。他在捕猎的过程中，遇到了许多的困难和阻挠，有疲倦的折磨，有海风深入骨髓的寒冷，也有海面上不见人烟的孤寂。但他不屈服于命运，无论在多么艰苦卓绝的环境里，他保持着自己的信念。这种信念如在黑暗中的火炬，散发着坚定的意志——不屈服于自然，与天抗争的一股勇气，这种勇气烙印在字里行间，让每一个读者都能感受到。

正因如此圣地亚哥凭着自己的勇气、毅力和智慧与大马林鱼和抢食的鲨鱼进行了奋勇的抗争。每战胜一条鲨鱼老人都付出了沉重的代价，大马林鱼的肉愈来愈少，最后遭到无可挽救的失败——大马林鱼虽然没有保住。但是，从另外一种意义上来说，那副骨架象征着老人的不屈，坚强，勇敢，毅力和智慧这些都是极为难得的人格品质。老人不但是一个胜利的失败者，也是一个失败的英雄。这种矛盾集合在他的身上，在文学上他正是典型的海明威式的小说人物。

文章总与历史相关联。在文中老人看来，大马林鱼是四十八天里钓到的第一条鱼，是一切美好事物的象征，是坏运气的结束，是新的开始。所以他搏斗，所以他不放弃。但是鲨鱼的存在象征着一切阻挠和破坏的力量，是阻止人们实现理想和目标的拦路虎，是各种邪恶势力的代表。这部小说正是写于上世纪50年代，也就是1951年。那时，海明威居住古巴，亲眼目睹了古巴人民争取民族的独立、民族解放的运动。所以说，主人公圣地亚哥不再是一个简单的打鱼人，而是古巴社会阶级的典型代表。这也是人类“硬汉精神”的真正来源。

《老人与海》赞扬了具有顽强意志力，不屈服于失败的人类。同样也提示我：人可以失败，但不可以被击败，外在的肉体可以接受折磨，但是内在的意志却是神圣不可侵犯的!

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!

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 .

这篇小说是充满悲剧色彩的，通过描述一位老人为了保护一条大马林鱼而对抗鲨鱼的故事。这个故事固然感动，竟也是根据真人真事改编的，想想故事中老人那种不畏困难，坚持不懈的精神，再想想平时的自己，遇到一点点小困难就退缩，据资料知道1930年，海明威乘的船在暴风雨中沉没，富恩斯特搭救了海明威，同次他们俩结下了深厚的友谊，并经常一起出海捕鱼，我十分敬佩老人的精神，是他让我知道了一个人必须有坚持不懈的精神，才能取得成功。

文中老人说这里离海岸很近，说不定更远的地方还会有更大的鱼，老人钓到了鱼，却不安于现状，还想要有更大的成就，我们就应该像这位老人一样胸怀大志，坚持不懈的坚持自己想要做的事。“一个人生来不是要被打败的，你可以消灭他，却不能打败他。”这句话表现了一个人的尊严和生命努力追求的本能，结局老人只是拖回了一个鱼骨，作者之所以这样写，是因为结果不重要，重要的是过程，在老人捕捉鱼，保护鱼的过程中就看出来了，只要为自己的梦想奋斗过，努力过，结果并没有那么重要，只要拼过，过程中就是胜利者，文中的老人没有向鲨鱼投降，他坚持不懈的精神深深地打动着我，也促使着我朝着自己努力的目标前进，就像我听说过的一句话：命运是不可改变的，可以改变的是我们对待命运的态度，即使前路困难重重，也不要灰心，不要放弃，相信柳暗花明又一村。

“人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能给打败。”

您知道这句话出自哪里吗？对，就是海明威所写的《老人与海》！在我犹豫不决的时候，在我心存放弃之念的时候，我的心中就会浮现出这本书，浮现出这句话，浮现出那位执着的老人，心中总会迸发出无穷的力量。

读过这本书的人，都会为老人一波三折、跌宕起伏的经历而惊叹。八十四天的苦苦等待，三天三夜与大鱼的拼搏，数天的成果保卫战，却换来了一架空空的鱼骨……但他的执着却不得不令我们肃然起敬。他战胜了大海，战胜了厄运，更战胜了自己！

留下这一传世佳作的是诺贝尔文学奖的获得者——海明威，是一位以电报式文风而著称，将文学创作中的冰山原则表现得最为充分的作家“真正的大师都是用最简单的语言来表达最深刻的道理。”他简洁明快而又深蕴含蓄的写作风格，彰显了他强烈的创作个性，开创了美国文坛上的一代文风，并影响了整个文学界。

美国艺术史家贝瑞孙曾这样评价《老人与海》和他的作者。“《老人与海》是一首田园诗，大海就是大海，不是拜伦式的，不是麦尔维尔式的，好比荷马的手笔；行文又沉着又动人，犹如荷马的诗。真正的艺术家既不象征化，也不寓言化——海明威是一位真正的艺术家——但是任何一部真正的艺术品都能散发出象征和寓言的意味，这一部短小但并不渺小的杰作也是如此。”

文章的主人公，那位可爱又可敬的老人，只是一个在墨西哥海湾打渔的老渔夫，似乎岁月早已夺去他的力量，在他的脸上犁下了深深的沟壑，两鬓的苍白也见证着他所经历的沧桑。但是，在精神上，他却是一个不可战胜的巨人。在他的生活中处处充满着挑战，他也在与强者的挑战中，证明了自己是强者中的强者。在最困难的时候，没有人可以帮助他，他只有靠自己，靠自己的双手，靠自己的信念来博得自己的一切，无论如何，他都是胜利者。他真正胜利的是什么？是他的从不放弃！是他始终怀着无比的勇气战胜到最后的精神！因此，无论面对着怎样的境遇，无论遭遇怎样的挫折，他永远不会失败，永远都是胜利者。忍得住痛苦，耐得住寂寞，勇敢前行，无所畏惧，这，便是硬汉精神的真谛。

我们呢？我们在人生的道路上，有老师的指引，亲人的庇护，朋友的帮助，我们还有什么可畏惧的呢。一位老人，一位临近生命黄昏的老人都可以为信念如此的奋斗，而充满青春活力的我们又有什么理由失去斗志，半途而废呢……

《老人与海》是一曲强者的颂歌，他代表着拼搏，代表着热情，代表着对命运的承诺；他里面有坚强，有勇气，有对明天美好的期待。“一个最伟大的人莫过于在经历过84天的疲惫后，梦见第85天的太阳。”是的，“人可以失败，但不可以被击败，外在的肉体可以接受折磨，但是内在的意志却是神圣不可侵犯的。”只要我们把这种精神，把这种信仰根植于心中，我相信，我们一定会做的更好！

老人睡去了，他梦见了狮子，又有更多坚强的人醒来了，有你，有我，有无数的人们和老人一起，去迎接第85天更加明媚的太阳……

这篇文章讲述了一位老人在第85天智捕大马林鱼回家途中遭鲨鱼袭击，顽强抵抗，最终只得带回一架鱼骨，仍受到人民尊敬的故事。

老人与大马林鱼斗两天两夜，他没有水，没有食物，没有武器，没有助手，但他毫不灰心，他不断鼓励自己，最终征服了这个庞然大物。尽管之后厄运连连，但他从没有想过放弃。他一次又一次振作，与命运抗争。哪怕最后他只剩一根木棍，他也毫不畏惧。他乐观、不屈，不断超越自己的极限。老人最终战胜的不是鲨鱼，而是他本身。凭着永不言败的精神，孤身一人与群鲨战斗，尽管结局他并没有得到完整的大马林鱼，但他依旧受到了所有人的尊敬。

一个人可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。

这位老人完美的诠释了这句话，当他遭受鲨鱼袭击，一次又一次遭受挫折，面临死亡的危险时，他只是拿出百倍的信心和勇气去面对、迎接生活给他的种种磨难与挑战，毫不畏惧，永不言退。

《老人与海》是美国作家海明威代表作之一，也是他生前最后一本经典名著。

书中叙述：一位在墨西哥湾流中捕鱼的老人——桑地亚哥，他消瘦憔悴，过了八十四天，连一条鱼也没有捕到。到了第八十五天，他活捉到一条比船还大的马林鱼，但那条鱼并没有就此放弃，叼着鱼钩继续往东方游，过了一段时间，马林鱼跳出海面，使老人能一刀毙命，它的血染红了海水，此时鲨鱼一只接一只聚集在船的附近，想要分杯羹，虽然最终老人杀了鲨鱼，但鱼肉一块块被撕走，从原本完好如初的一条鱼，变成支离破碎的鱼骨。

看完《老人与海》这本书后，我觉得老人有着坚忍不拔的心，完成任何事，就算遇到许多困难，也不曾放弃。人生不如意十之八 九，每个人生大道不可能都是光明平坦，必定都有起起伏伏，我们需要毅力与勇往直前的心志，才可成大事。挫败是人生一段过程，虽然老人始终都没捕到鱼，但他不会善罢干休，就算被其他渔夫冷嘲热讽，也不会在乎别人的看法，依然继续捕鱼;我们可以克服它，使它成为成功的养分，伟人不都有这段经过吗?每个人都不喜欢失败，但失败是走上完美的台阶，我不得不克服困难，才能迎接美丽的春天。

海涅说：“春天的颜色，只有在冬天才能认清，火炉边才能吟出最好的五月诗篇。”没有经过一番的挫折，是不会有成就;挫折虽然使人痛苦，但是它使我们增长智慧和经验，让人生更有意义与价值;只要能从失败中寻求方法解决，相信难关都能一一被化解。

在这个寒假里我看了《老人与海》。书中主要讲了老人在连续84天没捕到鱼的情况下，在第85天的时候发现了一条大马哈鱼，开始了长达3天3夜的追捕，最后大鱼被他杀死，而在归程中老人又遭到鲨鱼的袭击，最后回港时老人只剩鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨……

这本书给我最大的启示就是不要害怕失败和困难。

在书中，老人是多么坚强，不害怕失败，不害怕困难，因此厄运并没有把老人打倒，老人却把命运踩在了脚下，成为了生活中的强者。

在电影里，我也看到过类似的场景。在《一条狗的使命》中。小狗贝利为了找回自己的主人伊森，历经了一次一次的失败和困难重生了四次，最后终于找到伊森。小狗贝利的这种精神不是与老人一样么？

在现实生活中，碰到困难是难免的，可我们要正视困难，用坚持不懈的精神去打败它，如果失败了，就要从失败中吸取教训……再想想自己，每当碰到一点点困难就想退缩，想放弃。当我每次考试没考好时，我就会不敢正视，于是对下次考试也失去了信心，从而一次又一次的失落。仿佛进入了一个恶性循环。但读了《老人与海》后，我知道了人生没有不失败的，每个人都会历经失败，而我们要做的是在失败过后重新站起来，勇敢的去面对，去寻找失败的原因，总结经验，并战胜它。

面对困难，我们还要向老人一样付出辛勤的汗水，没有付出怎能有收获？天下没有免费的午餐，就算努力到最后也没有成功又有什么关系？我们努力过了，便不会留下遗憾。

我相信，在我的努力下，我一定会变得像老人那样勇敢，那样不怕困难。更不怕失败！

在茫茫大海上发生了看似平凡而又并不平凡的故事……也许没有大海，那就没有了这个不平凡的故事。正因为有了大海，才有了这平凡的渔夫，才有了这硕大无比的鱼;才让渔夫钓上了这条大马哈鱼，但却在海上与其搏斗了三天三夜才把它杀死，接着却又遭到了鲨鱼的袭击，最后的结局可想而知，这条大马哈鱼只剩下又粗又白的脊骨。一切的肉体都不复存在了，剩下的仅仅是—个躯壳，一个没有灵魂的躯壳，只不过是一堆毫无利用价值的骨架!然而在这个颇具悲剧色彩的故事中，却折射出一位“英雄人物”——渔夫圣地亚哥。

他连续八十四天捕不到鱼，在别人看来，他是失败的。一个渔夫捕不到鱼，还能算是—个、真正的渔夫吗?而他却还在第八十五天出海捕鱼。他从未放弃，即使已经八十四天没捕到鱼了。他的这种坚持不懈，“知其不可为而为之”的精神难道不值得我们佩服吗?古时愚公移山，他明知道开山挖石并非易事，也不是一朝一夕可为之的事情，这需要自己的子子孙孙一代代不懈地做下去，可他仍坚持带着子孙一天天去移石。愚公不也“知其不可为”，却也坚持不懈地做下去了吗?天帝最后感其诚，命山神搬走了山。连古时一位九十多岁的老翁都如此，我们不是更应该如此吗?如今的中学生，兴趣倒是挺广泛，学这又学那，可几乎每次都是“三天打鱼，四天晒网”，总半途而废，他们缺少的不就是像圣地亚哥和愚公一样的毅力吗?只要有了毅力，便没有不可攀登的高峰，只要有了毅力，便没有不可逾越的障碍!回想起文中老人的话“人不是为失败而生，一个人可以被毁灭，但不能被打败”不正道出了本文的主题吗?人真是很奇怪的动物，为何有勇气面对死亡，却没有勇气面对失败。失败真的如此可怕吗?人生谁能没有失败?就像人学走路，也得有过摔跤，而且只有经过摔跤，人才能学会走路。失败可以毁灭一个人，也可以造就一个人，有人因为害怕失败不敢追求成功，这就是弱者。在弱者面前，失败是倾覆生活之舟的波涛，波涛越大，他就越容易被吞噬。但我相信每个向往成功的人都不希望自己是弱者。

作为一位强者，就不应该面对失败而消沉悲观，就不应该因为沮丧而停止追求!《老人与海》给予我们的启示实在太多太多。它确实是—部好书，—本让人受益终生的好书!

开始，老人先是准备了几天，然后划船离开码头。几天后，他找到合适的地点钓起鱼来。可令他非常意外的事情发生了，他捕到一条大鱼，然而当天，他没办法把那条鱼拉上来，因为鱼太大太有力量了。就这样，一场较量开始了。连继二天，他们都在拉来拉去。到了第三天，较量终于以老人获胜结束了。老人发现那条大鱼竟然比老人的船还长，老人决定把那条大鱼绑在船舷上返航。可一件非常不幸的事发生了，途中鲨鱼开始吃那条鱼。就这样，老人和鲨鱼战斗起来。每天，老人都要打死一些鲨鱼，虽然很残酷，可要保住这条鱼又有什么办法呢。

最终，鱼肉被鲨鱼吃光了，只剩下骨架，老人被打败了。然而他休息了几天，又准备出海打鱼了。

我要学习老人坚持不懈的精神。

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 fish’s 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 fisherman’s spirit in life, handles the matter does not fear the difficulty, only then can obtain successfully.

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 is one of Hemingways most enduring works and may very well become one of the true classics of this generation. It played a great part in his winning the Pulizer Prize in 1953 and the 1954 Novel Prize for Literature and confirmed his power and presence in the literary world. Hemingway is also one of my favorite writers. Besides The Old Man And the Sea, I have read some of his other works, such as The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms and The Snow of Kilimanijaro. But The Old Man and the Sea is the one that left the deepest impression on me.

I first read this book when I was in my fifteens. And now I remember it just as well as if I had read it yesterday.
