老人与海英文读后感篇1
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 liked elizabeth, 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2
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 in churchill’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4
santiago, an old man about sixty years old, fished alone with nothing caught in 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 is shaped 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 in churchill’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5
i have read many books， which i learned a lot of knowledge， let me know a lot of truth in life， including a book， let me experience a deep， it is a famous writer ernest hemingway wrote， "hits."
"hits" this book talked about such a story， old fisherman santiago de cuba consecutive 84 days did not catch the fish， was another loser as a fisherman， but he was persistent， and finally caught a big marlin large marlins his boat dragged on for three days at sea， exhausted， was tied to the boat he was killed on one side， and then return journey repeatedly been shark attacks， he has exhausted all means to counterattack. back to hong kong only the head and a fish tail spine. although the fish have bitten gone， but what can not destroy the will of his bravery. this book reveals to us a truth: people are not born to fail， and a person can be destroyed， but can not be defeated.
before i do anything as long as there is one point does not work well， they will retreat， and sometimes even say a few words dejected to say. in learning， i have a few tests as long as there is not very good there will be no confidence that their getting good grades. "hits"， the hero fighting with the shark， shark harpoon was taken away， he put the knife blade tied to tie chaos. knife broke， he used truncheons. batons have lost， and he used the rudder to e to play. this book reveals the truth， not to explain a man no matter what my greatest fear is the lack of confidence. confidence is like a motor car， is a human motivation. if you do one thing with the confidence， you mean half the battle. the hero in this book are full of confidence and perseverance， not exactly what i indispensable?
since reading this book， i know that his lack of learning is no longer due to a loss of confidence in the two do not go well， but more poorly in an exam， the more to be a good test. in the final exam the day， the morning two homework results， i do not have a certain class of students is good， but i admit defeat， but confidence that the determination to fight a turnaround. language examinations in the afternoon， i have done every road topics are especially careful. sure enough， i was class of the first language examinations， total score， i am also a first.
in the future， i do not care what difficulties we encountered， we must face with confidence， persist in the end， and never retreat. i want to thank the book， for which i have learned so much， thank it for me to understand so many reasons， for it let me know his own shortings and correct their shortings in time， so i became a socially useful people.
"hits"， the lonely old fisherman santiago has been not only be tough guy， his spiritual values embodied in the body is entirely the spirit of the ancient greek tragedy， a modern echo. in the "hits"， the hemingway finally for his beloved tough guy to find the soul， this soul is everlasting eternal values of mankind. thus， in the "hits"， the tough-guy character of santiagos fortitude has bee the novels surface. by santiago tough-guy character to praise the eternal values of mankind， became the real theme of the novel. "hits" and demonstrated what eternal value?
the first is peoples self-confidence. 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 santiagos 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 the courage 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. "hits" in the main space， describing the lonely old fisherman santiago， in the open sea and in large marlin and a variety of sharks entangled， fought for three days and three nights experience. by hemingway fullest description， we felt the santiago desperate struggle with the fate of the heroic and noble. last drag home for the elderly only a 18 feet-long fish skeleton， the only plete skeleton is the head and beautiful fish tail.
from the physical point of view， elderly people fought for three days and three nights a result of failure; but the human spirit， from the persons self-confidence self-esteem， courage and destiny from the human to make every effort to struggle for victory santiago .
after all， the true victory can only be a triumph of the spirit. no matter who made much material success， they can not win our respect and thanks. only the spirit and the spirit of victory， it moves us， that we have to follow the elderly and children， for his tragic tears.
