人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。

轻轻合上这本《老人与海》，不禁思绪万千，我的心早已随着这书飘到那波涛汹涌的大海。这本书，给了我生活的信心和面对生活的勇气;这主人公(圣地亚哥)，使我明白了“世上无难事，只怕有心人”。

《老人与海》的故事很简单，写的是老渔夫圣地亚哥在连续84天没捕到鱼的情况下，终于独自钓上了一条大马林鱼，但这鱼实在太大了，把他的小船在海上拖了三天才筋疲力尽，他杀死了绑在小船的一边，可想而知，这需要多大勇气和多强的意志啊!但在归程中一再碰到鲨鱼的袭击，于是老人与鲨鱼进行了殊死搏斗，但最后回港时只剩下鱼头鱼尾和一条脊骨。

但是他这种坚持不懈，自信的精神难道不值得我们学习吗?虽然老渔夫没有把完整的马林鱼拖回海岸，在别人眼里是失败的，但是实际上他是成功的。

俗语道：不以成败论英雄，他那坚强的意志，勇敢的精神不比英雄的行为逊色，他将成为经历磨难而战无不胜的巨人，值得每个人倡导。

古时的愚公移山，他明知开山绝非易事，也非一朝一夕就可完成，他“知其不可为而为之”，仍坚持带领子孙后代来开山。终于感化天帝，命山神搬走了这几座山。还有“水滴石穿”，“铁杵成针”，“冰冻三尺”等等，不都意味着“有志者，事竞成”吗?

《老人与海》中有句名言：一个人不是生来就要被打败的，你可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。这句话衬托出了老渔夫的勇敢意志。

在现实生活中，碰到困难是难免的，最重要的是要勇敢面对，有坚持不懈的精神，从失败中吸取教训。回想自己，每当碰到一点点困难就不耐烦，当失败时就好比泻了气的皮球。

当我看到“老渔夫想：这里离海岸实在太近了，也许在更远的地方会有更大的鱼”时，我不禁有感而发：虽然老渔夫已经捕到了一些鱼，但他并没有安于现状，而是有着更远大的目标。而我们呢?取得了一点点成绩就沾沾自喜，自得忘形，没有奋斗的目标，这怎么会成功呢?“失败是成功之母”，就是这句话，是老渔夫在84次的失败后，在第85次时捕到了大鱼，尝试到了成功的喜悦。

在日常生活中，我们经常会因考试的失败而失落，对自己没有信心;也许会因为朋友的背弃而伤心，自暴自弃。但是，自从我读了《老人与海》后，想想来渔夫，再想想自己，就觉得自己碰到的不是问题。同学们，人生谁没有失败过，最重要的是在失败过后重新勇敢的站起来，积极的去面对，去寻找失败的根本原因，并改正。

老人与海读后感：“人生能有几回搏”，我们要全力以赴，以全心的面貌去挑战，坚信成功将不再遥远。“人不是为失败而生的，一个人可以被毁灭，但不可以被打败。”当我们碰到困难而灰心丧气时，一定要坚持，古人云：山穷水尽疑无路，柳暗花明又一村，我们要满怀信心的去迎接挑战。因为我相信成功永远属于我们自己!

第二篇：《老人与海》读后感.英文版

This winter holiday, I read a book called "the old man and the sea" classic. I benefit a lot from it.

This book is about: an old fisherman, he is called the San Diego. The old fisherman for eighty-four straight days at sea without fish. At first, there is a called manolin told the boy and he a out to sea, but after forty days without a fish the boy was parents arrange to another vessel, because they think that children follow the old man not good luck. Eighty-five days, the old man, the ship is far out in the morning, he unexpectedly caught a larger than the ship QiangYu. The old man and the fish tries to two days, finally fork it in it. But the injured QiangYu at sea for a trace of the bloody left, attract numerous sharks for crazy. The old man struggling to fight with sharks, but back to harbour, QiangYu left with a huge skeleton, the old man to a head of ducking out on land. Children come to see the old man, he thought that the old man was not defeated. That afternoon, the old man in the shack asleep, a dream he saw the lion.

After reading this book, I have a lot of feeling. Especially the old fisherman San Diego, his strong, generous, kind, loving, even in the life of the defeated in the battle, in the face of the inevitable fate, he is still strong in spirit, is "butch". He faced great pressure in the outside world and bad luck strikes, the strong and unyielding, still ahead, or even deadly opponents, though he failed, but keep the human dignity and courage, with the winner of poise.

This story reflects the people in "full of violence and death of real life" expression comes out of courage. Try to think of, an old and poor and alone, or even the old man to death, but to his deadly and these weaknesses, struggle to maintain his identity and dignity, to re-establish his circle in the name, and those who love and he can inheritance of the traditional culture of people keep good relationship. But ultimately the old man a hero's struggle not only save yourself, also inspired those around him, and make them the spiritual to sublimate. The outcome is the San Diego in "full of violence and death of real life" showed the best proof of courage.

This also reminds me of life some of the people, and they may and San Diego, old age, poor and alone, around by the death. But it is very different, it's that they chose dejected, accept, let it be. The end result is caused by: they look down on people, by the destiny tinkering with, again without your chance to blow. In fact, sometimes, just a little, confidence a bit stubborn, it will be possible for his life by entirely different effects. I believe, dares the fate, life and the struggle of the people, no matter how, is the strong!!!!
