老人与海 D2
Summary and reflection
这一部分描写老人出海捕鱼的过程,途中捕到一只海豚,之后拼尽浑身解数捕到一条大鱼,可是由于小船无法承载大鱼,返程途中遇到几只鲨鱼围攻,第一次是马科鲨,第二次是两条铲鼻鲨,老人英勇战斗,最终成功脱险。
文中多处环境描写细腻生动,恰如其分地渲染了当时的环境氛围,人物心理活动刻画细致入微,形象鲜明,有血有肉。
1. I wonder why he jumped, the oldman thought.He jumped almost as though to show how big he was. I know now, anyway, he thought. I wish I could show him what sort of man I am.(老人猜想大鱼跃出水面一定是在向他展示自己的身躯和威力,他也在向大鱼展示自己的意志和智慧。一个本能的动作,在作者的笔下也带着灵气一般,大鱼像人一样有了思想,向人宣战,老人也无所畏惧,迎接挑战,这无疑是人与自然之间的一场较量。)
2. "I told the boy I was a strange old man, now I must prove it"一个怪老头内心的倔强与不服输跃然纸上。
3. He smelled the tar and oakum of the deck as he slept and he smelled of Africa that the land breeze brought at morning.(老人的梦十分美好,安静恬淡,也表达了他对回家的渴望。)
老人与大鱼的搏斗就像我们在人生路上遇到的困难,只有自信从容,勇敢笃定地迎接挑战,最终才能找到真正的自我。人生路漫漫,我们每个人注定是孤独的灵魂,坚定信念,在路上。
