(1) He was an old man who fished alone in a skiff in the Gulf Stream and he had gone eighty-four days now without taking a fish. In the first forty days a boy had been with him. But after forty days without a fish the boy’s parents had told him that the old man was now definitely and finally salao, which is the worst form of unlucky, and the boy had gone at their orders in another boat which caught three good fish the first week. It made the boy sad to see the old man come in each day with his skiff empty and he always went down to help him carry either the coiled lines or the gaff and harpoon and the sail that was furled around the mast. The sail was patched with flour sacks and, furled, it looked like the flag of permanent defeat.
(2) The old man was thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck. The brown blotches of the benevolent skin cancer the sun brings from its reflection on the tropic sea were on his cheeks. The blotches ran well down the sides of his face and his hands had the deep-creased scars from handling heavy fish on the cords. But none of these scars were fresh. They were as old as erosions in a fishless desert.
(3) Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated.
(4) "Santiago," the boy said to him as they climbed the bank from where the skiff was hauled up. "I could go with you again. We’ve made some money. "
(5) The old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him.
(6) "No," the old man said. "You’re with a lucky boat. Stay with them. "
(7) " But remember how you went eighty-seven days without fish and then we caught big ones every day for three weeks. "
(8) "I remember," the old man said. "I know you did not leave me because you doubted. "
(9) "It was papa made me leave. I am a boy and I must obey him. "
(10) "I know," the old man said. "It is quite normal. "
(11) "He hasn’t much faith. "
(12) "No," the old man said. "But we have. Haven’t we?"
(13) "Yes," the boy said. "Can I offer you a beer on the Terrace and then we’ll take the stuff home. "
(14) "Why not?" the old man said, "Between fishermen. "
(15) They sat on the Terrace and many of the fishermen made fun of the old man and he was not angry. Others, of the older fishermen, looked at him and were sad. But they did not show it and they spoke politely about the current and the depths they had drifted their lines at and the steady good weather and of what they had seen.
(16) When the wind was in the east a smell came across the harbor from the shark factory; but today there was only the faint edge of the odor because the wind had backed into the north and then dropped off and it was pleasant and sunny on the Terrace.
(17) "Santiago," the boy said.
(18) "Yes," the old man said. He was holding his glass and thinking of many years ago.
(19) "Can I go out to get sardines for you for tomorrow?"
(20) "No. Go and play baseball. I can still row and Rogelio will throw the net. "
(21) "I would like to go. If I cannot fish with you, I would like to serve in some way. "
(22) "You bought me a beer," the old man said. "You are already a man. "
(23) "How old was I when you first took me in a boat?"
(24) " Five and you nearly were killed when I brought the fish in too green and he nearly tore the boat to pieces. Can you remember?"
(25) "I can remember the tail slapping and banging and the thwart breaking and the noise of the clubbing. I can remember you throwing me into the bow where the wet coiled lines were and feeling the whole boat shiver and the noise of you clubbing him like chopping a tree down and the sweet blood smell all over me. "
(26) "Can you really remember that or did I just tell it to you?"
(27) "I remember everything from when we first went together. "
(28) The old man looked at him with his sun-burned, confident loving eyes.
(29) "If you were my boy I’d take you out and gamble," he said. "But you are your father’s and your mother’s and you are in a lucky boat. "
The dialogue between Santiago and the boy suggests all the following EXCEPT______.
选项
A、it was Santiago who cultivated the boy as a fisherman
B、they shared plenty of precious recollection of the past
C、the affection between them were deep and warm
D、the boy wanted very much to be treated as an adult
答案
D
解析
推断题。虽然在第二十二段中老人说男孩已经是一个大人了,但是交谈中并没有反映出男孩对自己是否被当成大人对待持什么态度,故[D]不符合文意,为本题答案。从第五段和第二十四段可以看出,男孩从五岁第一次上老人的船开始,一直跟随老人学习捕鱼,可知是老人一手将男孩培养成一名捕鱼人的,故排除[A];第二十三段至第二十七段中,两人回忆了一些过去共同捕鱼的时候发生的事情,虽然过去很久,但依然记忆犹新,两人分享着珍贵的记忆,故排除[B];在对话过程中,男孩一直回忆过去和老人在一起的温馨场面,又提出要重回老人船上,而老人则从维护男孩利益的角度,不让他离开现在的船只,两人的交谈充满了温情,故排除[C]。
