The Old Man and the Sea
Finished reading The Old Man and the sea by Ernest Hemingway. This is one of Hemingway’s best stories. Relatively easy to read, but very impressive, more impressive than Orwell’s Animal Farm.
This old fisherman gallantly fought against nature, but his human effort had its limit. Felt very sorry for him. This old man, however, Learned the great truth in the end.

老人與海
讀完了海明威的《老人與海》。這是海明威最好的小說之一,比較容易讀,但相當深刻感人,比奧威爾的《動物農莊》還勝一籌。
老漁人勇敢地與自然搏斗,然而人力卻有其局限性,我為他深深地感到遺憾。但是,這個老人,最后卻學到了偉大的真理。
