The Old Man and the Sea is a short novel written by the American author Ernest Hemingway in 1951 in Cuba. It tells the story of a fight between an aging fisherman and a giant marlin (槍魚).The novel opens with the fisherman, Santiago, who has gone 84 days without catching a fish. He is so unlucky that his young apprentice (徒弟), Manolin, hasn't been allowed by his parents to sail with the old man.On the 85th day, Santiago sets out by himself, far onto the Gulf Stream. He sets his lines and by noon, a big marlin takes his bait (魚餌). After threedays' struggle with the fish, Santiago manages to tie the marlin to the side of his boat. While Santiago sails back to the shore, sharks are attracted to the blood left by the marlin in the water. Though Santiago makes a great effort,they have almost eaten up the marlin. Santiago knows that he is defeated (打敗) and tells the sharks of how they have killed his dreams. Once home, he is so tired that he goes straight to bed and falls into a deep sleep.Manolin feels much worried. The next day he brings him newspapers and coffee. When the old man wakes, they promise to fish together once again. The old man doesn't feel well and also coughs up blood a few times towards the end of the story.Readers think that the story is about man's fight against the natural world. In the story, Santiago and the marlin show similar qualities of pride, honour, and bravery, and both have to obey the same natural law—they must kill or be killed.

The novel has received so much praise and is considered to be one of Hemingway's most famous works. It was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953 and the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954.

【解析】

文章大意:《老人與海》是美國作家海明威的一部短篇小說,它使海明威于1954年獲得了諾貝爾文學(xué)獎。故事講述了一個老漁夫Santiago和一條大魚之間的戰(zhàn)爭。故事告訴我們不要放棄實現(xiàn)自己的夢想。

1轉(zhuǎn)換詞,由原文第一段第一行 written by Hemingway,可知是 Hemingway wrote, 此填 wrote。

2歸納詞文章主體段落都是關(guān)于《老人與海》的故事梗概,因此填introduction。 但是,本題空格后的介詞為 of,不同于 introduction 后常用的介詞 to,因此本題 答案可能存在一定的爭議。

3轉(zhuǎn)換詞,原文第一段最后一句,hasnt been allowed,做題時需要注意主被動之間 的轉(zhuǎn)換,因此填 allow。

4釋義詞,原文第二段第一句 Santiago sets out by himself,他獨自一人出發(fā),因此 alone。

5釋義詞,原文第二段第四行 while Santiago sails back to the shore,在回來的途中, 因此是 on his way back。此空故填way。

6歸納詞,原文第二段倒數(shù)第二行 how they have killed his dreams,他的夢想破碎 了,但由于文中沒有可供直接使用和轉(zhuǎn)換的詞,因此填入這些形容詞中的一個, 使答案言之成理即可。此空故填disappointed/sad/sorry/unhappy/upset/defeated。

7轉(zhuǎn)換詞,原文倒數(shù)第二段第一句 natural world 變?yōu)橐粋名詞 nature。

8歸納詞,原文倒數(shù)第二段第二句,這個故事“表現(xiàn)”了自然規(guī)律。此空故填tells/shows。

9釋義詞,原文最后一段第一行 praise,對應(yīng)答案,此空故填 think highly of。

10釋義詞,原文最后一句 It was awarded,書被給予獎項,意思即為 Hemingway“獲 獎”,因此填入以上答案中的任意一個即可。received/won/got。
