Cultural Note
The Pulitzer Prize
(普利策奖)
The Pulitzer Prizes is an award set up in 1917 according to the last will of Joseph Pulitzer, a tycoon(大亨) in the American newspaper industry. It's managed and awarded by the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism(新闻业). There are 23 individual awards in total. 15 of them are in the journalism category, like the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service and the Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Reporting. The other 8 are in the creative category, including the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction(小说) and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It has become the highest honor in the American journalism field and is known as the "Nobel Prize in Journalism". The results are usually announced in spring. It's given once a year.
普利策奖（The Pulitzer Prizes）是根据美国报业巨头约瑟夫·普利策遗愿于1917年设立的奖项，由哥伦比亚大学新闻研究生院负责管理及颁发。该奖共设23个常设奖项，其中15项属于新闻类（如普利策公共服务奖、普利策突发新闻报道奖），其余8项为创作类（包括普利策小说奖、普利策戏剧奖等），现已成为美国新闻界的最高荣誉，被誉为"新闻界的诺贝尔奖"。评选结果通常于每年春季公布，一年颁发一次。

Read Para. 3 and answer these questions.
This book has taught me not to give up. The fisherman fights hard, even though he loses the fish in the end. As Hemingway said, “Man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated." Even though I've already read the book three times, I'm not tired of
it yet. If you've never read
Ernest Hemingway, I recommend this book.
1. What has the writer learnt?
2. What does that famous saying of Ernest Hemingway mean?
3. Does the writer like the book? How do you know that?

Is the fisherman
successful? Why or why not?
Yes, he is successful. Although he lost the fish, he showed great courage and didn‘t give up, and he is still alive.
No, the old man isn't successful. He tried hard but still lost the fish, so from the result, he didn't reach his goal.
A successful loser;
a failed hero.
一个胜利的失败者；
一个失败了的英雄。
The story is about an old man fishing, fighting with a big fish and sharks.
It shows the old man's courage and spirit.
A man’s can be destroyed, but his will not be destroyed.
A man can be but not .

The writer didn't tell us everything directly. We need to think and find those hidden meanings ourselves. This makes the story short but full of deep ideas.
在《老人与海》中运用了海明威著名的“冰山理论”。
海明威曾说：“冰山运动之所以雄伟壮观，是因为它只有八分之一在水面上。”意思是作家只需写出事物的八分之一 ，让读者通过这露出水面的部分，去想象、感受隐藏在水下的那八分之七。
在这部作品里，海明威用简洁的文字描绘出老渔夫圣地亚哥出海捕鱼，与大马林鱼和鲨鱼顽强搏斗的故事，但这只是浮于水面的 “八分之一” 。在这简单情节之下，隐藏着丰富而深刻的内涵。比如老人面对困境时展现出的坚韧不拔的精神、人类不向命运低头的抗争意识、对生命和自然的敬畏与思考等，这些深层次的情感、主题与哲理如同藏于水下的 “八分之七”，需要读者细细品味、深入挖掘，才能领会作品真正的魅力与深度。这种写作手法使作品简洁却富有深意，留给读者广阔的思考空间。

What do they stand for respectively(分别)?
the spirit of perseverance and courage
the goals, dreams or great achievements
difficulties, bad luck and challenges
the uncertain and challenging environment
What are the “sharks” in your life? How should we face the “sharks” ?
In my life, the "sharks" are tough exams. They always make me nervous. Also, conflicts with friends can be like sharks. They make me feel sad and confused.
When facing tough exams, I'll study hard in advance and stay calm. When there are conflicts with friends, I'll talk to them sincerely, listen to their feelings and share mine. That way, we can solve problems and get along better.
Even though we may lose our fish, we can enjoy the process.
Never give up when you are in difficulties！
Be brave to face it and keep optimistic. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
