题目
For eighty four days old Santiago had not caught a single fish．At first a young boy，Manolin，had shared his bad fortune，but after the fortieth luckless day the boy's father told his son to go in another boat．From that time on，Santiago worked alone．The boy loved the old fisherman and always helped him with money and food．Usually，they would talk about the fish they had taken in luckier times or about American baseball after supper，while at night，alone in his cottage，Santiago dreamed of lions on the beaches of Africa，where he had gone on a sailing ship years before．He no longer dreamed of his dead wife．On the eighty-fifth day，Santiago set off to fish before dawn．Two of his baits （饵） were fresh tunas （金枪鱼） the boy had given him．Then he set his lines which went straight down into deep dark water．As the sun rose he saw other boats in toward shore．A man of war bird showed him where dolphin were chasing some flying fish．This time Santiago saw tuna jumping in the sunlight．A small one took the hook on his line．Pulling the fish aboard，the old man thought it a good fortune．Toward noon a marlin，a common fish in the sea，started eating the bait which was one hundred meters down．Gently the old man played the fish，a big one，as he knew from the weight on the line．At last he struck to settle the hook．The fish did not come out of the surface．Instead，it began to pull the boat to the northwest．The old man followed it． Although he was alone and no longer strong，he had his skill and knew many tricks． He waited patiently for the fish to be tired．It became cold after the sunset．Suddenly the marlin leaned，pulling Santiago forward on his face and cutting his cheek．By dawn his left hand was cramped （抽筋的）．The fish had headed northward； there was no land in sight．Hungry，he cut pieces from the tuna and chewed them slowly．That morning the fish jumped．Seeing it leap，Santiago knew he had hooked the biggest marlin he had ever seen．Then the fish went down and turned toward the east．Santiago drank a little water from the bottle during the hot afternoon．Close to nightfall a dolphin took the small hook he had baited．He lifted it aboard，careful．After he had rested，he cut meat from the dolphin and kept also the two flying fish he found in its stomach．That night he slept．He awoke to feel the line running through his fingers as the fish jumped．Making the line loose slowly，he tried to tire the marlin．After the fish slowed its run，he washed his cut hands in sea water and ate one of the flying fish．At sunrise the marlin began to circle．Faint and dizzy，he worked to bring the big fish nearer with each turn．Almost exhausted，he finally drew his big fish alongside and drove in the harpoon （鱼叉）．The fish was two feet longer than the boat．No fish like it had ever been seen in Havana harbor．An hour later，he sighted the first shark，a fierce Mako，and it came in fast to chase after the dead marlin．The old man struck the shark with his harpoon．The Mako rolled and sank，carrying the harpoon with it and leaving the marlin bloody．He knew the smell would spread．Watching，he saw two sharks closing in．He struck at one with his knife and watched it sliding down into deep water．He killed the other while it tore at the flesh of the marlin．When the third appeared，he thrust （刺） it with the knife．The other sharks came at sunset．At first he tried to beat them with the tiller （舵柄） from the boat，but his hands were bleeding and there were too many in the sea．In the darkness，as he steered （掌舵）toward the harbor of Havana，he heard them hitting the boat again and again．But the old man thought only of his steering and his great tiredness．He had gone out too far and the sharks had beaten him．He knew they would leave him nothing but the stripped skeleton of the big marlin．All lights were out when he sailed into the little harbor and beached his boat．He could just make out the white backbone and the upstanding tail of the fish．Once he fell under their weight and lay patiently until he could gather his strength to go on．In his cottage he fell on his bed and went to sleep．71．According to the text，which statement is NOT true about Manolin？ ____ A．The boy left Santiago at last．B．The boy had mercy on Santiago．C．The boy was Santiago's adopted son．D．The boy showed his great concerns to Santiago．72．Why did the man feel that he could be lucky this time？ ____ A．Because a lot of sharks followed his boat．B．Because he dreamed about the American lions．C．Because a small tuna took the hook on his line．D．Because he saw many flying fish were chased by the dolphins．73．Why does Santiago let the marlin lead his boat instead of pulling the big fish up？ ____ A．He was too tired and hungry to pull the big fish up．B．He wanted to use the marlin as a bait to catch the sharks．C．He wanted to kill the marlin first before he pulled it up to the boat．D．His experience told him not to do so before the fish was tired out．74．Which of the underlined sentences below can be used to best describe Santiago's character？ ____ A．"He no longer dreamed of his dead wife．"B．"Although he was alone and no longer strong，he had his skill and knew many tricks．"C．"Almost exhausted，he finally drew his big fish alongside and drove in the harpoon．"D．"Once he fell under their weight and lay patiently until he could gather his strength to go on．"75．According to the text，what will be talked about next？ ____ A．People's reflection when they saw the giant marlin's skeleton outside．B．A funeral held by the boy and the local people after his death．C．Santiago's action to realize his dream about the lions．D．Santiago's struggle against sharks．

解析
考查要点：
- 人物关系与细节理解（如曼诺林与圣地亚哥的关系）
- 因果关系与情节推断（如老人认为“好运”的原因）
- 人物性格分析（如圣地亚哥的坚持与智慧）
- 上下文逻辑推理（如后续情节的合理推测）
解题核心思路：
- 细节定位：通过关键词（如“Manolin”“marlin”）快速定位原文对应段落。
- 逻辑推理：结合上下文分析人物行为动机及情节发展。
- 选项对比：排除干扰项，抓住选项中与原文矛盾或未提及的信息。
第71题
关键点：
- 选项C错误：文中未提及曼诺林是圣地亚哥的“adopted son”，仅提到“a young boy，Manolin”与“the boy's father”，说明曼诺林是普通男孩，非收养关系。
- 其他选项正确：A（曼诺林离开）、B（帮助老人）、D（关心老人）均有原文支持。
第72题
关键点：
- 直接引用原文：第三段“Pulling the fish aboard，the old man thought it a good fortune”明确说明小金枪鱼上钩让老人感到好运。
第73题
关键点：
- 经验判断：第四段“he had his skill and knew many tricks．He waited patiently for the fish to be tired”表明老人需等待鱼筋疲力尽后再行动。
第74题
关键点：
- 选项D最佳：“patiently gather strength to go on”体现老人面对困境时的坚持与毅力，与“no longer dreamed of his dead wife”（A）无关，“skill”（B）和“harpoon”（C）未突出性格。
第75题
关键点：
- 结尾伏笔：最后一段“white backbone and the upstanding tail of the fish”暗示巨大鱼骨将引发他人关注，符合“skeleton”相关选项（A）。
