review.

The Old Man and the Sea- After reading the novel 'The Old Man and the Sea' with tears in my eyes, I have a lot of feelings. After 84 consecutive days without catching any fish, Cuban fisherman Santiago finally caught a large marlin alone. However, the fish was so big that he had to hold his small boat at sea for three days before being exhausted. He killed him and tied it to one side of the boat. On the way back, he was repeatedly attacked by sharks, and when he finally returned to port, only the head, tail, and spine were left. This is written based on real people and events. In life, some people have escaped the devastation of war, but seeing their loved ones die, they are powerless and can only leave their bodies like bidding farewell to stone statues and walk into the rain. They can only show bravery and grace in the face of misfortune. Where is Old Santiago? Although he was in a disadvantageous position from the beginning, not catching any fish for 84 days, thinking he had fallen into "blood mold", and other fishermen regarded him as a failure. He was thin and haggard, with deep scars on his hands, and had no money to buy food. He had to rely on the child to bring him, but his bravery lay in knowing it was impossible. In 85 days, he was determined to fish for big fish in the distance. When he really caught a big marlin, knowing that the opponent had stronger strength than him, he still decided to fight to the end. I will accompany you until death, "he said," because being a fisherman is the profession I was born to do. When the sharks repeatedly attacked, he used all personal means to counterattack. The harpoon was taken away by the shark, and he tied the small knife to the oar handle and stabbed it haphazardly. The knife broke, he used a short stick. The short stick was also thrown away, and he used the helm to strike, but even though the fish was bitten off, nothing could break his brave will. After the first shark bit off about four pounds of fish meat, the old man thought to himself, "But people are not born to fail. A person can be destroyed, but cannot be defeated." His strong will is what moved me the most. And the wreckage of that big fish, the author finally described it as: 'It is now just garbage, waiting for the tide to take it away.' This implies that all material things, including humans, are destined to be destroyed, and only human actions and memories of actions are eternal. So, the last sentence of the book is: "The old man is dreaming of a lion." Through the lion, it represents vigorous vitality and youth, and also indicates that the old fisherman maintains a good memory of things. The most touching part of 'The Old Man and the Sea' for me is the brave will, firm determination, and tenacious vitality of the old fisherman. He faced repeated failures and despair, without giving up at all; He faced the cruel devastation of life without losing heart at all; He faced the erosion and unfairness of heaven on himself without any complaints I used to be a girl who was afraid of pain, crying loudly when getting injections, wrestling, and so on. However, after watching "The Old Man and the Sea", I learned that people are not born for failure. A person can be destroyed, but cannot be defeated; I have learned that not only can gods create miracles, but humans can also, as long as you have the spirit of a fisherman; I got it! Yeah, people need to have the belief like fishermen that 'people are not born for failure, a person can be destroyed, but cannot be defeated' in order to reap fruitful results; People should not be afraid of difficulties, sacrifices, dangers, or retreat
