Delansa

The story of "The old man and the sea" is very simple, which is about the old fisherman Santiago in the continuous 84 days did not catch any fish, but finally fished on a big marlin. However, the fish is too big to put his boat in the sea to drag three days before he was  exhausted to kill it. After killing this marlin, Santiago tied to the side of the boat. You can imagine that it needs how much courage and how strong are needed! But on his way home, he was repeatedly attacked by sharks, which led the old man fought desperately with. Luckily, he finally returned to port with only the head and tail and a spine of the marlin but survived. Isn't his perseverance and confidence worth learning from? Although the old fisherman did not pull the whole marlin back to the shore, in the eyes of others is a failure, but in fact he is a success. As the saying goes: not to the success or failure of the hero, his strong will, brave spirit is not inferior to the hero's behavior, he will become an invincible giant through hardships, worthy of everyone's advocacy.

  The Old Man and the Sea is arguably the most typical Hemingway novel, concentrating on Hemingway's world and Hemingway's philosophy of life. The subject matter of the novel was obtained from an old Cuban fisherman, and Hemingway lapped it up for more than ten years. He not only enriched the story with his long-acquired wealth of knowledge about fishing, but also supplemented and tailored it into the subject matter he needed.

  Like the old saying, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Continuous 84 days catching any fish did frustrate him but could not destroy him. Perseverance supports him to the end of the battle between the nature and himself.

  The most outstanding spirit of the old man is perseverance. Along the way, he encountered all kinds of accidents and difficulties, physical and mental pain, but he never gave up, and often talked to himself to encourage himself. The old man's strong and optimistic spirit is worth learning, especially when we encounter difficulties.
