Reading notes

This summer vacation, "The Old Man and the Sea" with my company. "The Old Man and the Sea" in fact, there is no gorgeous language to set off the character characteristics, there is no magnificent statement to render the atmosphere, only a simple flat story, but enough to move people, give people a kind of impassioned power. In the book, the old man fought with the big fish to the death, and finally defeated the big fish at the last moment of exhaustion, and tied it to the side of his boat. Again and again, during the struggle, the thought occurred to him: "Men are not made for defeat." But on the way back, encountered a group of sharks, the old man tried his best to fight with sharks, he brought back only the skeleton. When we encounter bad luck and misfortune, rather than complain about the injustice of the fate, it is better to summon up courage, cheer up, resolute attitude and bad luck to fight. Don't old people do the same? The old man was not overwhelmed by any difficulties, he tried his best to fight with hardships in life indomitable, and also said the most unforgettable sentence in my life: "a person is not born to be defeated, you can destroy him, but can not defeat him." A person's life is impossible without failure, but if we can gain beneficial experience from failure, find the dawn of success, failure as the road to success, it will be failure to give the biggest harvest. Looking at all of life, who hasn't experienced failure? No matter how successful people are. The reasons for failure may vary, but it's always a blow you can't take. Although the old man did not keep the fruits of his victory, but this confident, brave, strong quality makes me admire. Through this book, I realized that I need to be strong. Santiago is a tenacious person. The tattered canvas on the fishing boat is like a weather-beaten flag, symbolizing tenacity and tenacity. Even if a lot of days nothing, but he "do not abandon do not give up", not only still insist on not going out fishing, but also go to the sea to catch big fish. This spirit is worth me to learn, to learn. In learning, there are often unsolved problems killing my will to learn, and there are often traps blocking my steps forward. Through the experience in Santiago, I understand that only this unremitting struggle is a magic weapon to success. People always have to be tempered, only the strong and unyielding people, to win. Sometimes, when they are defeated by difficulties, their will can not be depressed, but to regain confidence, with higher enthusiasm to meet new challenges. We must not be beaten down, even when difficulties are great, but face them bravely and be ready to meet them.
