translation of book "the old man and the sea", if there is anything not good, amend for me, thanks! 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 fouty days without a fish, the boy's parents had told him that the old man was definitely and finallly salao,which is the most form of unlucky, and the boy had gone in their orders in another boat which caught three good fish the first week, it made the boy sad to see the old man come back in each day with his skiff empty and he always come down to help him either the coiled lines or gaff and harpoon and the sail that was furled around the mast, the sail was patched with flour sacks and , furled, it looked like flag of permanent defect. 它是个在海港小划船上垂钓的老人,在84天垂钓的头40天老人一无所获,起初有一个小男孩跟着老人一起垂钓,但是因为40天没有钓到鱼,小孩的父母警告小孩说这个老人注定是钓不到鱼了,男孩只要服从他父母的安排跟随另一条第一周就打到3条好鱼的渔船出海,看着老人每天空船而归,男孩挺伤心的,因此男孩也经常过来帮助老人收拾鱼线鱼钩鱼叉以及卷在桅杆上的船帆,船帆上补着用面粉袋补的补丁,缠绕着,看起来像标志着永远失败的旗帜。 the old man was thin and gaunt with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck, the brown blotches of the benevolent skin cannnncer the sun brings form its reflection on the tropic sea on hischeeks. the blotches ran well down the sides of his face and his hands had deep creased scars from handling heavy fish on the cord, but none of thes scar were fresh. they are as old as eriosions in a fishless desert. everthing about him is old except his eyes and they are the same color as the sea and were cheerful and undefeated. "santiago" they 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." the old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him. "no" the old man said. you'r with a lucky boat, stay with them." "but remember how you went eighty-seven days without fish and then we caught big ones every day for three weeks." :i remember" the old man said. i know youdid notleave me because you doubted"
