eighty four days.No one would like to talk to him for his eXtremely bad luck eXcept a boy who always came to help after the day and finally left to another boat under the pressure of his parents.Ignoring the contempt from the younger fishermen and sympathy from the older, on the morning of the 85th day,the old man started his fishing with determination and rowed his old boat very far in the sea where he believed there would be big fish.Fortunately the old man met with a big fish as he had wished and finally defeated the big Marlin with two days and nights struggle after overcoming great difficulties.But more unfortunately there were many sharks coming after his boat attracted by the smell of the blood of the big Marlin.After death-and-life struggle, when he finally got rid of the sharks coming after the boat, the big Marlin was bare skeleton.The Old Man and the Sea tells a frustrated eXperience of the old man who fishes alone in the sea in plain languages.Through the simple lines, a “tough guy” image isshaped and heroism is praised.The whole story starts with a peaceful beginning which is some trivial of life and talking with the boy, and suddenly turns to its climaX which is the dangerous fighting with the big fish and sharks alone in the sea, and ends with the old man’s return with the bare skeleton of the big Marlin.Though the boy only appears at the beginning and the ending in the novel, he plays an indispensible role,it is his inspiring and supporting that helps the old man to be “graceful under heavy pressure”.In the book, the old man prepared his fishing properly and preciously than any other fishermen so that “Then when luck comes you are ready” as the old man thought to himself.In reality, some of us keep complaining that they are born in wrong time or good luck never knocks their doors.In fact, good luck sometimes just comes when they are not ready.Taking Newton for eXample, if he had not acquired a lot, millions of apples could never make him discovery the gravity.So if we just keep studying as much as we can, good luck will finally find us and a bright future is ahead of us.The old man never gives up hope.When all of people think he is doomed, he still strongly believes that he will get a big fish.And he does.So never giving up hope is very important to us.This reminded me of the sentence inChurchill’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》英文读后感篇2the

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 Santiago's 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 thecourage 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.

Santiago gained a huge fish called Marlin after having drifted in the sea for 84 days. It was a fish that is 2 feet longer than the boat and that had dragged his boat for two days before being stabbed to death. It seemed that the old man wasn’t so successful, because he encountered a shark, struggled with the serious environments, even the only spoil——Marlin just left a skeleton. However, the most important thing is that Santiago had never given up for a moment.In this novel, I am deeply impressed by his persevering. I admire the old fisherman for his steel-like mind and persistence.I think there’s a real young man inside him, although he is at an old age and no longer goes back to his youth. From the strong comparison between the old look and the young heart, we can easily find that it is the positive firm spirits that make us hold our hopes and keep trying all the time and finally guide the roads towards success.Through the vivid description about the struggle between human and nature, Hemingway expresses his opinion that the courage inside human beings can help us face any failure and overcome any difficulty. In the book, the hero Santiago was beat by the shark, which we regard as a symbol of doom, but he chose to struggle with the fortune instead of losing faith in his life. Just the same as the hero Santiago, all of us will meet with various kinds of difficulties in our daily life, which is a rule of human’s fate. So how can we adjust our attitudes toward these and what should we do with so many problems? The old fisherman tell us the truth——“Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not be defeated”.老人与海读后感英文第7篇《老人与海》英文好句1.Every day is a new day. It is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready.每一天都是一个新的日子。

老人与海英文读后感【5篇】

老人与海英文读后感【5篇】1.老人与海英文读后感He is a strong man who is not afraid of difficulties and failure. He has been hit repeatedly, but he has never given up the idea of looking for hope. Despite repeated failures, he never lost heart and was disappointed. Although he nearly died, he ignited the anger of victory again in his fearlessness. He is the tough guy in Hemingway’s works - Santiago.Santiago went to sea for 84 days and got nothing. His tenacity and hard work ushered in the promising dawn on the 85th day and the brilliant sunshine on the 85th day. On the 85th day, the old man went to sea. In the vast sea, his persistence finally paid off: a huge Marlin was hooked.In the next four days, the old man competed with the big marlin. The scorching sun is not afraid of the sky, the cold wind is not afraid of the bone, and the lack of water is not afraid. With his courage and strength, he defeated the marlin and ushered in the dawn of victory. Many desc riptions vividly show the oldman’s strong and never give up spirit. Although his hands were weak and his eyes were hard to use, he could only see the intermittent together, and he kept trying. After trying again and again, the old man finally defeated the big marlin. The image of such a tough man is vivid in Hemingway’s works. He not only told us to dare to fight against fate and challenge failure and death, but also told us to persevere in the face of things and be unwilling to fail. When we face difficulties, we should, as the article said, “now is not a time to think about what you can do with what you have.”in the face of difficulties, we should be calm, confident, not complaining. “The old man and the sea also tells us that it is foolish for people not to hope. Even if life deceives us, we should be optimistic. So I send a poem to Santiago and his grass carp, and the people who are disappointed in life and can’t find a direction: “if life deceives you, don’t be sad, don’t be anxious, believe it, happy days will come. The heart will always yearn for the future, everything is fleeting, everything will pass. And what has passed will become eternal nostalgia.”2.老人与海英文读后感The old man and the sea creates a classic image of a tough man. An old fisherman named Santiago of Cuba went fishing 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 was strong and strong. He dragged the boat and drifted for two days and nights. In these two days and nights, the old man experienced a difficult test that he had never experienced before, and finally stabbed the big fish to death and tied it to the bow. However, at this time, he met a shark. The old man fought with the shark to the death. As a result, the marlin was eaten up by the shark. The old man finally dragged home with only a bare fish skeleton.When I read about the fierce struggle between the old fisherman and sharks, I was really worried about him, but he always maintained an optimistic spirit to face some great difficulties. Seeing here, I couldn’t help thinking of myself. Whenever I encounter some difficulties, I always feel very unhappy, feel very upset and want to escape from reality. Look at Grandpa fisherman again. No matter what difficulties he encounters, he doesn’t shrink back, but faces them bravely!Life should also be like this. Don’t be greedy and afraid of death. Have confidence in yourself. Even if we encounter many difficulties, we should never let it down. We should bravely eliminate it.We are the future of our motherland. We should be as ambitious as Grandpa fisherman and pursue better and bigger goals. I believe that with my efforts, I will become as brave and brave as Grandpa fisherman. Life is an endless pursuit. Its road is long, difficult and full of ups and downs, but as long as he bravely and tenaciously meets the challenge with a confident heart, he will always be a real winner!I will remember that a man is not born to be defeated. You can destroy him as much as you can, but you can’t defeat him.3.老人与海英文读后感When a person admits this defect and tries to overcome it instead of succumbing to it, it doesn’t matter whether he finally catches a complete fish or not, because the value of a person’s life has been fully reflected in the process of chasing the marlinsalmon.The old man and the sea has successfully created a classic image of a tough man. The author of this article also won the Nobel Prize for literature. The protagonist of the novel is an old Cuban fisherman named Santiago. He went fishing alone. After 84 days, he still got nothing. In 85 days, he finally caught a big Marinha fish. However, the strength of the fish is too strong. After three days of competition on the vast sea, the old man finally subdued the big fish, because the big fish is huge, He couldn’t drag the fish into the boat at all. He tied the big fish to the side of the fishing boat. On his way home, he encountered repeated shark attacks. The old man fought against the sharks, but in the end, he left only his head, tail and a spine.The old man Hemingway created here is a tragic hero. Although he finally got only a fish skeleton, he is a spiritual winner. He said: “man is not born for failure... A man can be destroyed, but not defeated.”Human nature is strong. Human beings have their own limits, but it is precisely because people like the old fisherman expand to the limits again and again and put greater challenges in front of mankind again and again.In this sense, heroes like Santiago, the old fisherman, whether they challenge the limits, fail or succeed, are worth learning from.Hemingway expressed his thoughts on the relationship between man and nature through the struggle between the old man and the big marlin, sharks and the sea and a large number of inner confessions: the law of nature is irresistible to human power, our noble people’s indomitable struggle against nature should also live in harmony with themselves.4.老人与海英文读后感The old man and the sea is one of Hemingway’s representative works. In the whole novel, we see the story of a strong and courageous old man fighting at sea.In the development process of the story, with the escalation of the intensity of the whole struggle, the interest of the whole story is also upgraded simultaneously. Therefore, many people think that it is really a boring story, which is understandable.Because there is a very obvious difference betweenthe descr iption of the plot of western novels and that of Oriental novels. In our common novels, the development of the plot of the novel must have a gradual process, and the progression of the story is also very intense.However, in western novels, the development of the plot is often more insipid. Moreover, for Eastern readers, because the novel itself is a translation, there are some misunderstandings in the understanding of the whole story. For readers, what they understand has been filtered by other people’s thoughts, so they can’t really grasp the author’s initial thoughts and views.The final result of the old man and the sea is actually puzzling. Because the old man finally experienced a life and death struggle and got only a fish rack without any effect, the ending of the whole story is actually full of a certain tragic color. It will not only make us want to say, is it worth the old man’s effort?In fact, if we look back and comb the novel again,we will find that in fact, the old man has got what he wants most.Because in such an environment, if there is no such struggle, the old man may have no hope of survival.5.老人与海英文读后感”A hero can be destroyed, but he must not be defeated.”This sentence comes from Ernest Hemingway’s the old man and the sea.The old man and the sea is about an old Cuban fisherman named Santiago who did not catch fish for 84 consecutive days. On the 85th day, he caught a large Marlin 18 feet long and weighing about 1500 pounds. Unfortunately, when the old man came back, he was attacked by sharks. He tried his best to fight, but finally he only harvested the skeleton of a big marlin.A short story has shaped an old man with tenacious fighting spirit. In our opinion, he is a failure, but in fact, he is a winner.As the saying goes: when the sword is sharpened, the plum blossom fragrance comes from the bitter cold.In our study and life, we will inevitably encounter unpleasant things: losing self-confidence due to poor academic performance and abandoning ourselves due to the betrayal of friends... But since I read this book the old man and the sea, I think: compared with me, the old man abandons himself when I encounter a little difficulty, and the old man encounters such a great setback, but he is always so confident, Am I going to give up? Ostling once summed up the theme of the novel: “this story is an ode, which advocates the spirit of struggle that will never yield even if the result is nothing, and praises the moral triumph in failure.”We should bear in mind the enlightenment given to us by the novel the old man and the sea: life is an endless pursuit. The road is long and difficult, and full of ups and downs. However, as long as we bravely meet the challenges with a confident heart, we will be the real winners.老人与海英文读后感【5篇】。

老人与海读后感_英文版(The_Old_Man_and_the_Sea)(范文大全)

老人与海读后感_英文版(The_Old_Man_and_the_Sea)(范文大全)第一篇:老人与海读后感_英文版(The_Old_Man_and_the_Sea) The Old Man and the Sea When I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.At that time, I thought it was a boring story.I couldn’t understand why the writer uses so many words to describe an old man’s fishing experience.But when I read it in English recently, I really gain something new both in the way of expressions and the spirits it shows to me.Maybe different ages to read the same book will learn different things from it.The old man and the Sea, one of Ernest Hemingway’ s most famous work of fiction, was published in 1952.Critics praise that the novel is Hemingway’s last major w ork of fiction, and he won 1953’s Pulitzer Prize for Fiction , Award of Merit Medal and 1954’s Nobel Prize in Literature.Hemingway is a famous American writer of modern times.He is also an international literary celebrity in the world.His father was a prominent doctor, and also good at fishing and hunting.The influence of his dad made him full of love with fishing and hunting.His life was active and adventurous, but it was full of pains.He had once joined the army and had injured in Italy, and he suffered much that was brought about by the war deeply.He was disppointed with the world and the pessimistic about the fate of the man.In order to save the desperate situation, Hemingway wrote a work, the Old Man and the Sea, that he firmly believes to be the best works in his life.It is a story that an old man whose name is Santiago went out to do some fishing on the sea.But down on his luck, he hadn’t caught any fish for eight-four days-----he will soon pass his own record of eighty-seven days.He goes far out into the sea and He caught a huge marlin which is much bigger than his boat.A desperate struggle ensures.Santiago manages to kill the fish and ties it to the boat.When he was on the way home, the smell 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.But these dangerous giant sharks eat up the marlin, leaving only a skeleton.The old man brings it home and goes to bed to dream, almost dead with exhausion.This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the old man.Different aspects can be seen from Santiago: such as brave, persistent, pride, optimistic, lonely and intelligent.He does not catche a single fish for eight-four days, what is worse, the child who has catched fish with him also forced to leave him.Lonesome is his only friend as well as enemy.But he still keeps on trying without being despaired.He goes far out into the sea and catches a huge marlin after three days’ patien t struggle.When a person waits for something so hard and when he has an opportunity to get it, he will cherish the chance carefully and make mind to realize it.From fighting with the huge marlin to driving away the fierce shark.It is only when the conditio n is so bad can show a person’s skill of braveness and persistence.Even thought he is so tired, he brings the big skeleton of the fish back to the bank.“ He saw the white naked line of his backbone and the dark mass of the head with the projecting bill and all the nakeness between.” Maybe, Santiago gets nothing, but he has tasted the victory in fighting process.The tough guy image of the old fisherman is more obvious and outstanding.It reprensents a spirit that is struggle, pride, never given up, confident.When reading the big fish’s smell of blood is smelledby 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 up.But the old man also charmingly criticized himself the left hand “ this work time actually was resting ”.I was so admire the old man’s optimistic spirit.In the life, some losses are inevitable, we should treat by the optimistic manner.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 giving up.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 horrible 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 theold man had returned with the marlin intact, his moment of glory, 2 like the marlin’s meat, would hav e been short-lived.The glory and honor Santiago acquires comes not from his battle itself but from his pride and determination to fight.As the novel begins, Santiago definitely and finally failed.However, he kept self-composed and had confidence in his dignity.So even having got nothing in the first 84 days, he continued to go out to fish.Santiago decide to sailing out further than any fisherman had before testified his confidence to the depth.It also shows his confidence to change his bad luck, because he clearly knew what he was born for.Yes, he was born for the conquering of the sea.Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.We all know that the windows of one’s soul.It means the old man’s heart or soul is convincible.In order to protect his dignity, he finally summarized the famous motto “ Man is not made for defeat.A man can be destroyed but not defeated”.This is obviously the declaration to the difficulties and adversities.It encourages human to fight for dignity.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 anddeath, love and hate, destruction and regeneration—of nature.I also appreciate the relationship between the old man and the boy.The old man was in bad luck and the boy had got good fishes after he left the old man.Santiago didn’t feel jealous but happy for him.When talking with the boy who was not willing to leave, the man said, “ I know you did not leave me because you doubted” and he felt it was quited normal, though he would be lonely without the boy.When the boy asked if he could offer the old man a beer on the terrace and then took the stuff home, the old man said, “ why not”.Between fisherment, all these details show that Santiago was reasonable, sensible, kind with open mind.The old man’s grace lies in his gender feeling.Some details in how the old man woke the boy: he took hold of one foot gently and held it until the boy woke up.When the boy was still sleepy, the old man put his arm across his shoulders and said, “ I am sorry”.Just like someone said, heartlessness doesn’t make the hero, pity for children makes more the man.With confident attitude towards life, the old man took thing philosophically.In fact the boy could come back to him and he needed the boy, but when the boy wanted to be back, the old man refused because it was the boy’s parents who made him leave a nd he could not make the boy awkward and unlucky with him.And boy, who also much care about the old man.The boy looked after the man and accompanied with him.They had a great time when they get together.Although his parents forced him to another fish boat, he still continued take the old man as his mentor.The old fisher man’s tragic life reflected Ernest Hemingway’s experience.He has taken part in two world wars and spanic war.He and the people had not relief from the evil dream of the war.Despairing, failing had been always around them.The society is full of chaosand decay after war.These helped Hemingway to show the character of Santiago.In addition, by describing the experience of Santiago, Hemingway successed in reaching his goal to convey the main theme of the story.Courage, confidence, as well as never giving up are ways leadings to success.In other words, a man can be destroyed but not be defeated.Both readers and critics give the work------the Old Man and the Sea so high comment just because of the meanings and influences of the book.It tells us that a man should face and overcome difficulties in life with courage, confidence, and the spirit of never giving up.第二篇:The_Old_Man_and_the_Sea老人与海英文读后感The Old Man and the SeaThe old man and the sea which was written by Ernest Hemingway who won the Nobel Prize for Literature and the Pulitzer Prize.It 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.This book gives me a deep impression especially the description about the man’s braveness and persistence.The novel tells us a story: an old man named Santiago in Cuba who was a fisherman.He had been fishing hard in the Gulf Stream for 84 days but got nothing.In the previous days a boy named Manolin was fallowing him as a company, but the kind boy was force to leave the old man by his parents who thought that the old man was unlucky.Santiago went fishing alone in the eighty-fifth day and got a big fish which fully has 18 foot length in the measure.However, on the way back a shark came and ate the stly, the marlin left only a skeleton.The book is a fable describing the unconquerable spirit of the old man--How he takein the spiritual victory from the circumstance that is full of disasters.Hemingway seems to believe that there are only two options: defeat or endurance until destruction;Santiago clearly chooses the latter.His stoic determination is mythic, nearly Christ-like in proportion.He didn't give the old man the success, but fortitude and resilience to face the pressure.The value of his life was completely reflected in the way he catch fish.He is the real winner in his own world.He is an ordinary fisherman, as well as a hero.And he is made out as a person of motivation, passion, and hope.Santiago was old just as Hemingway said, “Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.”He think every day is a new day.No matter how old he is.He said , “It s better to be lucky.But I would rather be exact.Then when luck comes you are ready.” He was poor;he had nothing except a little boat and harpoon.But he sa id , “Now is no time to think of what you do not have.Think of what you can do with what there is.”Santiago is a man with little direction but enough determination and experience to live.He chose not to see what others thought but lived by how he perceived the world.He overcame the marlin with his constant struggles and persistent and he showed his earnest desires to live and fish.Throughout the story many aspects can be found about Santiago’s personality merely in the content of his 3-day fight against the marlin.Certainly Santiago is a man of many themes and personality traits.He is respected by a young boy, Manolin, yet he is looked down upon by many of the younger fishermen in the Cuban fishing village where he lives.Some people laugh at him when he passed by, and some thought of him to be too old to be a fisherman.They didn’t believe he was able to catch a fish.Buthe was much better and more exact than most of the other fisherman in the village.Santiago was alone.He catches fishes alone.He fights against sharks alone.He can talk to nobody except himself.No one will help him.Even though he faced hungry, weary and difficulty alone, he does not give up and never feel lonely because his willingness is so strong.And he was approached in an ideal trip.“I fight you to death” , a tough voice.Although he knew it was very difficult to beat the big marlin, but he still did not give up.It shows his heroism and the strength of his tenacious trend.I extremely admire the fisherman's willingness.He lets me understand one person certainly must have relentless spirit, only then could obtain what he wants successfully.“The senior fisherman think: Here to the seacoast really was too near, perhaps could have a bigger fish in a farther place...”.He had not settled to the prese nt situation, but was approaching 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, leap the water surface in it the flash, did utmost throws to its heart, one wail ended the big fish's life, it wasstaticfloatsonthewatersurface...”, I extremely admire the relentless spirit of old man.Although he knew the difficulty is very strong and hard, but he did not slightly flinch.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 reflectswhen 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.” It i s the most well-known sentence of this novel.These words become belief of many readers.In my opinion, the whole story is about a battle between an old man and the sea, both of which are considered to have symbolic meanings according to critics.The old man once was so energetic and strong but couldn’t get harvest from the sea.He used his old body and strong mind to fight against nature and challenge his fate.He got the large fish, but he lost totally because he carried back only the skeleton of the fish with his hands bleeding.However, he had done all he could to fight against all unlucky things and didn’t lose his face.He behaved like a real man, a tough man.That’s what’s most important in a battle.When he met difficulty, he welcomes difficulty.A person shouldn't fear but accept the defeat with pleasure.I think we can study senior fisherman's spirit in life and learn to be tough and brave like him when facing with hard times in our life, which is the best solution we should choose in a bad situation.Sharks may be seen as a hit that made the success and happiness loss.But, as the child said, “It does not beat you, it does not.” We need not fear the difficulty and we should handle the matter, then we can obtain a bigger success and the victory.We will meet a lot difficulty, and what we should to is trying our best to fight against it.Perhaps we loss in the battle, but we win the spirit, the intangible thing.What is most important is not the result, but the course.第三篇:老人与海读后感_英文版(The_Old_Man_and_the_Sea) The Old Man and the SeaWhen I was a middle school student, I’ve finished this book in Chinese.At that time, I thought it was a boring story.I couldn’t

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.I also appreciate the relationship between the old man and theboy.The old man was in bad luck and the boy had got good fishes after he left the old man.Santiago didn’t feel jealous but happy for him.When talking with the boy who was not willing to leave, the man said, “ I know y ou did not leave me because you doubted” and he felt it was quited normal, though he would be lonely without the boy.When the boy asked if he could offer the old man a beer on the terrace and then took the stuff home, the old man said, “ why not”.Between f isherment, all these details show that Santiago was reasonable, sensible, kind with open mind.The old man’s grace lies in his gender feeling.Some details in how the old man woke the boy: he took hold of one foot gently and held it until the boy woke up.When the boy was still sleepy, the old man put his arm across his shoulders and said, “ I am sorry”.Just like someone said, heartlessness doesn’t make the hero, pity for3children makes more the man.With confident attitude towards life, the old man took thing philosophically.In fact the boy could come back to him and he needed the boy, but when the boy wanted to be back, the old man refused because it was the boy’s parents who made him leave and he could not make the boy awkward and unlucky with him.And boy, who also much care about the old man.The boy looked after the man and accompanied with him.They had a great time when they get together.Although his parents forced him to another fish boat, he still continued take the old man as his mentor.The old fisher ma n’s tragic life reflected Ernest Hemingway’s experience.He has taken part in two world wars and spanic war.He and the people had not relief from the evil dream of the war.Despairing, failing had been always around them.The society is full of chaos and decay after war.These helped Hemingway to show thecharacter of Santiago.In addition, by describing the experience of Santiago, Hemingway successed in reaching his goal to convey the main theme of the story.Courage, confidence, as well as never giving up are ways leadings to success.In other words, a man can be destroyed but not be defeated.Both readers and critics give the work------the Old Man and the Sea so high comment just because of the meanings and influences of the book.It tells us that a man should face and overcome difficulties in life with courage, confidence, and the spirit of never giving up.第四篇:老人与海英文读后感篇一:老人与海英文读后感This year summer vacation, I read the American well-known writer Hemingway's

老人与海英语读后感(一)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 thedescription about the man’s braveness and persi stence.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 h is 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.Sa ntiago?,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 theend 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 obse rvation: “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 bythe final image of the lions. Because Santiago associates the lions with his youth, the dream suggests the circular nature of life. Additionally, because Santiago imagines the lions, fierce predators, playing, his dream suggests a harmony between the opposing forces—life and death, love and hate, destruction and regeneration—of nature.This book gives me courage of conquering all kinds of difficulties .And I have the belief that the most beautiful thing is the process that we make our best to achieve our dream,and never say give up .老人与海英语读后感(二)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 likedElizabeth, the heroine,though I didn\'t think she\'s beautiful. But she\'s smart. However, I didn\'t pay much attention to the plot. I thought it\'s so long that it made me impatient and bored. By now, I haven\'t read the whole story in English or its Chinese version, either. I owe it to my prejudice.In fact, I didn\'t understand the story at that time. I didn\'t know why it called Pride and Prejudice. Of course someone was pride, but I didn\'t find where\' s the prejudice. I thought it\'s normal, the way people treated each other in that. I considered prejudice would be very disgusting. But to the movie everthing was OK in my minds, except its length. Now, I think I have understood more about it. I\'m a prejudiced person so I can\'t find where\'s wrong. I merely like to do the things I like. Everytime I meet somebody or something,my thinking about he or it all depends on my foregone experience and my mood of the time.。

老人与海英文读后感篇1Read "the old man and the sea" this article, I could not help secretly for Hemingway's 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。

老人与海读后感英语版老人与海读后感英语版The old man Santiago from The Old Man and the Sea is a character seen in many perspectives, as a hero, an ordinary fisherman, an unlucky old man, and a wise man. Throughout the novella he is made out as a person of motivation, passion, and hope. Despite what others do or do not think he is a man of action, and not one consumed by regret. The young and old villagersa€? view of Santiago is an important one, but not a differentiating one.The villagers are split into two groups. The older fishermen that respect Santiago and wish him luck, and the younger fishermen that see him as little more than bad luck. While neither group is particularly important to the plot, each of their views sets an ambiance of Santiagoa€?s forthcoming adventure. Without their views Santiago would be little more than a lucky old fisherman.Santiago has a resolute grip upon reality and lives by it. He sees himself as a man with little direction but enough determination and experience to live. He chose not to seewhat others thought but instead lived by how he perceived the world. His constant struggles and his persistent resolve to overcome the marlin and himself show his earnest desires to live and fish.The boy is a crucial element to Santiagoa€?s world. Manolin is always at the edge of Santiagoa€?s mind when he thinks of convenience. At times with the fish, Santiago thinks to the boy and then to his own lack of ability. He may deny it, but at times it is his relationship with the boy that both makes him realize he needs help, and compels him to go on.Christian imagery and concepts are important assets to the old fishermana€?s personality. He is seen as a kind man, and although expresses his frustration towards certain points, only conveys his anger towards the evil representation of the sharks. His kind, infinite eyes, and he carrying his mast like Jesus and his cross only augment his Christ-like personage. His loneliness and greatness are both shown as Manolin is assigned a new boat after 40 days with Santiago, the same length of time as Christ spent in the wilderness.Santiagoa€?s change at the end of the novella turns him into almost a universal hero. By being at sea, his ventureswere never limited and the events of the story just seemed to happen. After he rebukes himself for his arrogance with the marlin, Santiago goes home and dreams of the lions playing in Africa, signaling a cycle of a child-like rebirth through Manolin.Throughout the story many aspects can be found about Santiagoa€?s personality merely by the content of his 3-day fight with the marlin. The ideology that encompasses the story is only consumed by Santiagoa€?s pure will to persevere. Certainly Santiago is a man of many themes and personality traits.I believe that in the past three decades, the way society has treated he elderly has remained primarily the same. Some younger citizens have looked up to the elderly with respect, yet most continue to shun them andconsider them useless and hopeless in a society such as ours. I think that the elderly population is continually losing respect from the new generations. Santiago, the elderly man in the novel The Old Man and the Sea, is respected by a young boy, Manolin, yet he is also looked down uponby many of the younger fishermen in the Cuban fishing village where he lives. This book is set in the late 1930's and, I as I see it, shows that societies all around the world have had adecline in respect for the older people in their environment since the beginning of the nineteenth century.An enormous number of issues have changed since Santiago's time, allowing the elderly to have the ability to do more in their old age and live in areas specifically designed for their needs. However, there is still an enormous lack of respect for the older people in society, and it is becoming worse every day. Younger citizens of our country make fun of older people, call them names, and believe that they are incapable of doing most things that the younger ones are capable of doing. When we believe they can no longer support themselves, we place our elderly relatives into retirement homes and "old folks' homes" as many call them. Sometimes they, themselves, do not wish to go to such a place, but we force them to, which many times is the wrong choice. Some younger people help the elderly, though, and try to support them, but few of these people can be found. It is a fact that when people get beyond a certain age, their memories begin depleting and they atrophy physically. However, as Santiago shows in the novel, older people have much knowledge about the world around them and enough strength to make it through hard situations if they are determined and have the will andcourage to believe in a better tomorrow.In Santiago's community, it is shown that their is still a natural respect for elders, as is seen in Manolin's support of the old man. He was one of the dying breed that truly looked up to his elders and regarded their feelings and experiences with much respect. He greatly aided Santiago by giving him support and courage and helping him through every day chores. Their are still some people with such feelings in the world today, yet many have had their opinions swayed by others and begin to think badly of the elderly.Their is also a lack of respect for Santiago and the elderly in the novel, which can be found in the actions of the young fisherman. Some laugh at him when he passed by, and some thought of him to be too old to be a fisherman. They believed he was not in good enough shape to catch a fish, yet it was only his bad luck that deterred him from doing such a thing. He was much better and more exact than most of the other fisherman in the village, yet they could not see past his age to view his accomplishments.I think the false beliefs about the weakness of the elderly can be turned around only if society looks much harder at their abilities and their goals. We must begin to see thatalthough they may not have great physical strength, they still have a mind that is capable of many things. Their are many jobs that they can hold in the workplace and many things they can do to help society of which we, the younger generation, are not aware. We must realize that they have gone through many experiences that we have not and that they hold a vast amount of knowledge about the world around them. There will come a time when one's age does not determine the value of one's life, but we can change that dream to reality only if we try.老人与海读后感老人与海读后感英文版老人与海英文读后感200字。
