The Old Man and the Sea《老人與海》

The Old Man and the Sea

Santiago is an old fisherman.

In the last 84 days, though, he didn't catch a single fish.

His partner is Manolin, a young boy.

Santiago is teaching Manolin about fishing.

Manolin's parents don't approve of their relationship.

"Santiago is too unlucky," they say.

"You should find a better master to learn from."高手;專家;主人

Manolin doesn't care, though. 毫不在意

He helps Santiago because he likes the old man and feels bad for him.

They eat together and talk about baseball.

Santiago feels down, but he won't give up. 感覺沮喪

He is confident and believes one day soon, his luck will turn around. 他很有自信,而且相信在不遠的某一天,他的運氣會好轉

On the 85th day, Santiago heads out to sea alone獨自.

He sails his boat far out into the ocean. 他將他的船駛入遙遠的大海中

He drops his fishing line deep in the water and waits.

At noon, Santiago feels a strong pull on his fishing rod. Santiago感覺到有一股很強的力量在拉他的魚竿

He tries to bring the fish in, but he can't move it. 他嘗試把魚拉回來,但是他卻拉不動牠

Santiago can't tie the fish to his boat because it will break破壞船身.

So, he uses every muscle in his body to bring it in. 他使用全身上下每一塊肌肉的力量把牠抓起來
