Reasons for liking The Old Man and the Sea

Reason for liking: The old man fought bravely with his courage, perseverance and wisdom under the condition that the "weapon" was simple and helpless and the shark took turns to attack. In him, we saw an indomitable, strong and unyielding "tough guy" who dared to face difficulties and death. This "tough guy" is the embodiment of Hemingway's personality ideal, the symbol of the tenacious struggle between human beings and nature, and represents a healthy and positive spirit. His "tough guy" willpower reflects the narrowness of the life realm of those who are confused and confused.
