五、阅读短文，完成下面的思维导图。
My favourite book is The Old Man and the Sea. I wrote a book report about it. The American writer Ernest Hemingway published(出版) it in 1952. The book became popular very quickly. In 1953, it won the Pulitzer Prize.
The main characters are an old fisherman (Santiago) and a little boy (Manolin). Santiago doesn't catch anything for months but he never stops trying. One day he catches a big fish, but he has to fight for days to kill it. He finally succeeds, but he can't pull the fish onto his boat. On his way back, sharks eat the fish, leaving nothing but bones.
This book teaches me to try my best to achieve my goal. The fisherman fights hard, 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.”
