  In the story of The Old Man and the Sea, when the old man took his lot - the huge marlin - on his way home, the fish had been bitten by the shark and left with only fish bones. Therefore, the last big fish the old man saw was actually no longer a complete and living fish, but a huge fish bone.

  
  

  As for the old man's inner world at this moment, it can be imagined that he is full of complex emotions. First of all, he may have a deep sense of disappointment and frustration, because the fish he worked hard to catch was eaten by the shark and left with only the skeleton. This was the result of his efforts for many days, but he was ruthlessly deprived at the last minute.

  
  

  However, at the same time, he may also feel a tenacious and unyielding spirit. He did not give up because of difficulties, but persisted until the last moment. This spiritual power enables him to remain calm and rational in the face of great difficulties and setbacks without giving up hope.

  
  

  In addition, he may have a deep respect and sympathy for this fish. This fish is his opponent and his friend. There was a thrilling struggle between them, but in the end they all went into decline. Old people may feel the fragility and impermanence of life, and at the same time cherish their lives and experiences more.

  
  

  Generally speaking, the inner world of the old man at this moment is complex and profound, full of disappointment, frustration, tenacity, unyielding, respect and sympathy. These emotions are intertwined to form his unique inner world and philosophy of life.

  Much can be interpreted about the characters through the way Hemingway wrote their speech and descriptions. The male characters who carry this novel are simple. They live basic lives and spend their days contending with their most immediate needs. The village is not a rich one, and many of the residents are quite poor.

  The big fish was bitten out of shape, the old man is the sympathy for the big fish, the regret of catching the big fish, and the inner frustration after the fruits of labor were plundered
