After eighty-four days without catching a fish, the two decided to go out to sea together. The weather was very good that day when they went out to sea, and the sky was also very kind to them. The two of them easily caught a huge marlin. The two thought they could return to Longlong, but unfortunately, the big fish they caught attracted a siege from sharks. The ferocious and huge sharks have been attacking fiercely, seeming to force and threaten Santiago to give up this big fish. fish. However, Santiago is not a coward. In danger, facing huge threats and facing the breath of death, the old fisherman has been resisting tenaciously. Although the fat and delicious fish was eaten by sharks and was destroyed until only a skeleton was left, Santiago did not give up the hard-earned fish easily.
After reading this novel, I was deeply touched, especially the sentence "A composition/A person can be destroyed, but he cannot be defeated." It touched my heart tightly, and Santiago The spirit of not being afraid in the face of danger, fighting pointlessly, never giving up, and never giving up deeply shocked me, moved me, inspired me, educated me, guided me, and encouraged me.
Human beings are great, very strong, have great potential, and have great perseverance; but they are also so small, so fragile, and so easy to give up and compromise. When we encounter difficulties and are in trouble, it is not shameful to feel afraid, and it is not abnormal to feel fear. But once we have the idea of ??giving up, the idea of ????escape, and the behavior of compromising, then we are cowards. If you show it, it will only make people feel cold, look down upon, despise, and stay away from.
In life, you still need a little arrogance and some pride. You can be self-confident and fearless no matter when and where you are. That is a true hero and his true nature! But if you give up on yourself, are greedy for life and fear death, are afraid of hands and feet, and are timid and fearful of trouble, you will only lead to failure, and you will only fall into the abyss, without respect, respect, success, and redemption.
I hope that everyone can bravely defend their marlins when encountering sharks; I hope that everyone can boldly fight against the minions of darkness when they are in trouble; and I hope that we can bravely fight against the minions of darkness on the journey of life. , can always be brave and strong, fight unyieldingly, and persevere! 2020 "The Old Man and the Sea" 800 words after reading (2)
Every book has its own "soul". When you read a book, you are unconsciously, Falling into the world imagined in that book.
Because the "souls" of books are different, naturally the world they envision is also different. The "soul" I refer to is the thoughts or wishes that each book itself wants to express.
We may shed tears because of those touching books, or get excited because of those books that record humiliating history, or even imagine ourselves to be the best in the world because of those martial arts and fantasy books.
"The Old Man and the Sea" is a book that allows people to understand what real life is and what is strong. It is a really good book. In real life, we will continue to suffer setbacks, failures, and many negative emotions. As a result, many people become negative and lose their love for life. However, "The Old Man and the Sea" depicts an old fisherman who fights with the sea and struggles to survive in a difficult environment. Everyone should remember that it was mentioned in the book that the worn canvas on the old man's fishing boat was like a flag of failure, as if announcing the old man's unlucky luck that he would never be able to catch fish. However, he did not give up and still went out to sea to fish. But in reality, some people cannot persist and choose to give up and escape when faced with setbacks. Compared with the old fisherman who is already living in embarrassment, those who escape really don't know what setbacks are. We may lose confidence in ourselves because of failure in exams. Or give up on yourself because of criticism from others. At that time, think about this strong old fisherman and how he faced life. Your own heart will naturally feel much more relaxed.
Others fight against the sea and the powerful force of nature, but now we are only facing some setbacks in study and life. Compared with the old fisherman, they are really nothing. His hands are covered with calluses, and his skin has been stained by the dazzling sun. The shabby fishing boat cannot withstand any storms, and his dilapidated hut is also the kind where it rains heavily outside and lightly rains inside.
However, he did not give up hope in life. He talked about baseball with the little boy, went to the pub to drink and chat, and still went out to sea to fish under the first ray of sunshine every morning. Regardless of whether there is a harvest or not, he will insist on going out to sea to fish. This is not just because he relies on fishing to make a living, but fishing has become a part of his life and a kind of memory in him. On his last fishing trip, he caught a big fish. However, on his way back to port, he was attacked by a shark. He resolutely picked up a harpoon to defend the fruits of his hard work. Although, in the end, the big fish was eaten by sharks, leaving only the white skeleton. However, the old fisherman's spirit of never giving up, although he failed in the end, his courageous behavior is something we should learn from.
Moreover, our hands have no calluses, and our skin has no spots from the sun. In the summer, the air conditioning is blown at home, and our parents help wash our clothes. When we come home from school every day, there are hot meals on the table. We really have no pressure in life, and we really haven’t suffered from things that can become setbacks. Our troubles and setbacks can only be said to be the small dissatisfaction of our youth. We haven't worked hard for life yet, so we don't know how difficult life is, so we regard our little dissatisfaction as a setback, and it seems to be serious. We don't understand that in society, there are many people like the old fisherman who live a difficult life and never give up. Those migrant workers, vendors, tinkerers... all live in a difficult environment. We should not discriminate against them. The construction of our city relies on their strong arms carrying loads of bricks and stones. Everyone is an indispensable part of social life. We must respect them and learn from them. They are a realistic version of "The Old Man and the Sea". They are also so strong and full of love for life. 2020 After Reading "The Old Man and the Sea" 800 words (3)
I am particularly impressed by the content of this book. The "tough guy" character of the protagonist, the old fisherman Santiago, left an indelible impression on me. He went fishing at sea and caught a big marlin with great difficulty, but the fish was so big that it dragged Santiago's boat at sea for three days and three nights before he was exhausted and was killed by Santiago. Ya Ge killed and tied him to the side of the boat, but on his way back, he was repeatedly attacked by sharks, and only the bones of the dead fish were left when he finally returned to port. In Santiago's body, a thrilling mermaid fight, we feel Santiago's firmness, calmness and wisdom in facing difficulties, adversity, violence and death. Santiago deserves our eternal respect. What it brings us is the noblest self-confidence of mankind.
The scene of the old man’s tenacious fight with the marlin is the most vivid in my memory. After the old man hooked the big marlin, he tried his best to resist the marlin for four hours in the boundless sea, but the marlin didn't seem to care and didn't show any signs of fatigue, and still swam forward steadily. The old man's series of verbal and psychological descriptions highlight his determination to persist to the end. While the old man is dealing with the fish, he also has to fight with his own body. Feelings of pain, cold, hunger, and dizziness kept coming, but he endured it tenaciously. In a contest of courage, perseverance and tenacity, the old man relied on his own experience and wisdom to support himself, and fought a desperate battle with the marlin. Finally, the old man defeated the marlin. The old man's heroic qualities of being fearless, tenacious, positive and optimistic are vividly displayed before our eyes. ah! Santiago He is really a typical "tough guy", a true hero who fights alone without fear, resolute and tenacious! He is strong and resolute, fearless in the face of pain and death, and never loses his human dignity and courage when fighting the harsh life. This is not something ordinary people can do! I admire him, his beautiful spirit of never giving up and never being discouraged, and his heroic demeanor that "people can be eliminated, but cannot be defeated"!
The old man’s spirit deeply touched my soul and made me grow a lot in life: I wanted to give up during the climb, but it was the old man’s spirit that inspired me and made me climb. At the top, you can see the beautiful scenery; when I was learning to ride a bicycle, I was once discouraged, but it was the old man’s spirit that inspired me, allowing me to regain my confidence and gain joy; when I was skating, I once fell, and it was the old man’s spirit that spurred me on. Me, let me stand up again and continue to slide... The old man's spirit gave me courage, strength and confidence, allowing me to defeat all difficulties.
When I finished reading this book, I understood that the road to life is long, difficult, and full of ups and downs, but as long as you face the difficulties bravely with a confident heart, you will definitely become a real winner. ! 2020 After Reading "The Old Man and the Sea" 800 words (4)
Recently, I read the novel "The Old Man and the Sea" by the modern American novelist Hemingway.
Santiago didn't catch a fish for eighty-four days in a row, and the whole family was so hungry that their hearts were worried. But Santiago was not discouraged and still went out to sea to fish on the 85th day. This time, he finally caught a big marlin that was 85 feet long and weighed 1,500 pounds! The joy in Santiago's heart cannot be described in words! He struggled with the marlin... Finally, he spent two days killing the marlin and hanging it on the bow of the boat. However, many ferocious sharks came to snatch Santiago's trophies. Santiago was not afraid. He bravely accepted the challenge of the sharks.
But the enemy is outnumbered, and Santiago tried his best but failed to save the marlin he had caught so hard, and was chewed into a skeleton by the shark.
But I think Santiago has already won! What a perfect failure!
Although he failed to save the marlin, his character of not being afraid before the battle, his bravery and fearlessness during the battle, and his character of not being discouraged after the battle were all vividly displayed! Isn't this worth learning?
In life, can we face difficulties when we encounter them? Can we be fearless when we are outnumbered? Can you bounce back after failure?
No. I just can't do it. When I was studying for the Mathematical Olympiad, when I encountered long questions, I would often be frightened by the superficial phenomena and choose to give up. In fact, the problem is very simple. We are intimidated by its superficial appearance. As the saying goes, if you know that there are tigers in the mountains, you will go to the mountains with tigers. It is the same in everything. Don't be intimidated by difficulties. You must learn from Santiago and not be afraid of difficulties.
When you are learning piano, the exam music is very difficult. The melody, notes... are almost never repeated, and you have to memorize and feel them. I was often discouraged, thinking that I would never be able to play. But I chose to persevere in the end, completed the grade examination song brilliantly, and successfully passed the eighth grade. yes! We should learn to be fearless, learn to persist, and learn not to admit defeat. The character of never giving up and the spirit of perseverance are the golden keys to our door to success.
In the last winter jasmine composition competition, I failed to represent the school in the competition. I felt very disappointed and have been unable to recover since then. But the teacher taught me that failure is the mother of success. As long as you continue to work hard and refuse to admit defeat, you will definitely gain success soon! After hearing this, I seemed to see hope again. After hard work, I finally achieved excellent results in the subsequent essay competition. So many famous scientists have been hit countless times, but have they given up? No! They never lose heart, they believe that God will not treat those who work hard badly!
The ancients said: There is no way out in the mountains and rivers, but there is another village with dark willows and bright flowers. We must face challenges with confidence and fight against difficulties fearlessly. Because I believe success always belongs to us! 2020 "The Old Man and the Sea" 800 words after reading (5)
The waves continue to roll, hitting the rocks on the shore, splashing crystal waves. In a wooden house by the sea, an old man named Santiago slept peacefully. In his dream, there was a brave lion.
This old man named Santiago shocked me deeply. He persisted in his belief and finally caught a big marlin by himself even though he had no fish for 8 consecutive days. , but the fish was so big that the old man dragged it on the sea with his small sailboat for three days before killing it and tying it to the side of the boat. But on the way back, the big marlin was repeatedly attacked by sharks. When it finally returned to port, only the head, tail and a fish bone were left. This may be a funny joke in the eyes of people who read this book for the first time, but I think it is a hymn to a hero.
Although the old man Santiago was at a disadvantage from the beginning - he had not caught a fish for 8 days, he considered it "bad luck", and other fishermen regarded him as a loser. However, his bravery lies in knowing that he cannot do anything and doing it. The old man knew that the opponent was stronger than him, but he was still determined to fight to the end. Although all the fish and meat were bitten by sharks, nothing could destroy his heroic will.
After the first shark took about a pound of meat, the old man thought: "However, people are not born for failure. A person can be destroyed, but he cannot be defeated." This sentence expresses the theme of this book. From this perspective, this book is not a fable, but a masterpiece of realism.
The old man can still maintain an elegant demeanor under heavy pressure. He is a mentally invincible tough guy! He is a hero who knows he will fail but is not afraid of failure! His tenacious struggle not to be overwhelmed by failure shows the indestructible spiritual power of mankind. It is the embodiment of man's invincible spiritual power.
The author added a little boy, the boy and the old man to the original story, which strengthened the optimism of the book, and the old man’s spiritual victory is also reflected in the last sentence, "The old man is dreaming of a lion." , because the author mentioned many times in the book that the old man recalled seeing lions on the beaches of Africa when he was young, using lions to represent vigorous vitality and youth.
In addition to using sympathy and admiration to make readers feel that the old man is great, the boy Manolin is also rich in another theme: return. The boy brought back the old man's lost youth and his past self. Therefore, during those three days alone at sea, he often muttered: "I wish the boy was here." Every time he said it, he could regain his energy to cope with this difficult test. The old man is full of yearning for life and looks forward to a better tomorrow. What's more valuable is that he defeated pessimism, despair and death, and dreamed of lions again.
In the dark, I seemed to see the old man as brave as a lion, setting off with the pure boy...
