haloooooo guysss 😊

Today, I would like to give continue  my summarizing  of  the book entitled " The old man and the sea" 

after the boy was not allowed to sail with an unlucky old man. finally he fished with a more fortunate ship to get a lot of fish. 

after a while the boy asked the old man to come back to fishing with him again.becauce The old man once taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him very much.

"No," said the old man. "You sail on a lucky boat. Stay with them. "

"But remember how you sailed eighty-seven days without fish, then in the end we caught big fish every day for three consecutive weeks."

"I remember," said the old man. "I know you didn't leave me because of doubts."

"It's Papa who made me go. I'm a boy and I have to obey him. "

"I know," said the old man. "That's really reasonable."

"He doesn't have enough confidence."


"No," said the old man. "But we have it. Is not it?


after a while the old man spoke to the young man. the young man invited him to sail far into the sea, but the old man could not, because he was too old and myopic eyes.


Santiago told Manolin that the next day he would sail very far into the middle of the bay to catch fish, and he was sure that the wave of his fortunate fate would soon be over.

So on the 85th day, Santiago sailed alone, carrying his small boat deep into the middle of the Gulf of Mexico. He set the hook, and in the next afternoon, a big fish he was sure was a marlin biting his bait. Santiago could not pull the fish, instead found a small boat that was actually pulled by the giant fish. Two days and two nights passed in that situation, and during that time the old man held his snare with his own hard work. Even though he was very sick and injured in his struggle, Santiago felt a sense of love, emotion and appreciation for his opponent, often calling the fish his brother. He also decided that because of the fish's great dignity, no one was worthy to eat the fish.

On the third day of his struggle, the fish began circling his small boat, showing his tiredness to the old man. Santiago, now exhausted, began to deliriate, and was almost insane, using all the remaining energy he had to pull the fish to the side of his boat and stab the marlin with a harpoon, thus ending the long struggle between the old man and the fish very strong to survive.


Santiago tied the marlin's carcass on the side of his small boat and began sailing home, thinking about the high price the fish would give to the fish market and the number of people who could enjoy the catch. As long as Santiago continues its journey home to the seafront, sharks are becoming interested in the blood traces left by the marlin in the water. The first is the mako shark that Santiago killed with his harpoon, causing him to lose the weapon. He then assembled a new harpoon by tying the knife blade to the end of a paddle to drive away the sharks that came next. Five sharks were killed and many other sharks finally left. In the evening the sharks had devoured the entire carcass of the marlin, leaving only the skeleton of the spine, tail, and head, where the head was still stuck in the harpoon of the old man's fisherman. Santiago was very sad and punished himself for sacrificing the marlin, and finally arrived at the edge of the sea before dawn the next day. He struggled to walk towards his hut, carrying his heavy ship's pole on his shoulders. After arriving home, he lay down on the bed and went into long sleep
