本人是新初二的学生，英语不怎么样，词汇量小得可怜，看《老人与海》（《The Old Man And The Sea》）英文版根本看不下去，看一页翻字典都得翻一下午，马上要开学了，看不完了。老师让准备一段约2分钟的背诵，我头都大了。先求助各位高手帮帮忙吧，告诉我最好背的一段！希望能给出原文，发文件也行，最好告诉我大概在书的哪一部分，让我好找到。分不多，但如果让我满意得话，我会追加悬赏的！
我刚才试着读了一下，只有一分钟，还有长一点的吗？
追答等我去翻翻…急吗？
追问不急，两天内就好，再晚就来不及了。
追答嗯嗯。我会尽快的
追问快一点呀，内容最好靠前一些，谢谢！
追答I wish the boy was here,' he said aloud and settled himself against the rounded planks of the bow and felt the strength of the great fish through the line he held across his shoulders moving steadily toward whatever he had chosen.
When once, through my treachery, it had been necessary to him to make a choice, the old man thought.
His choice had been to stay in the deep dark water far out beyond all snares and traps and treacheries. My choice was to go there to find him beyond all people. Beyond all people in the world. Now we are joined together and have been since noon. And no one to help either one of us.
It was dark now as it becomes dark quickly after the sun sets in September. He lay against the worn wood of the bow and rested all that he could. The first stars were out. He did not know the name of Rigel but he saw it and knew soon they would all be out and he would have all his distant friends.
'The fish is my friend too,' he said aloud. 'I have never seen or heard of such a fish. But I must kill him. I am glad we do not have to try to kill the stars.

追答“He always thought of the sea as 'la mar' which is what people call her in Spanish when they love her. Sometimes those who love her say bad things of her but they are always said as though she were a woman. Some of the younger fishermen, those who used buoys as floats for their lines and had motorboats, bought when the shark livers had brought much money, spoke of her as 'el mar' which is masculine.They spoke of her as a contestant or a place or even an enemy. But the old man always thought of her as feminine and as something that gave or withheld great favours, and if she did wild or wicked things it was because she could not help them. The moon affects her as it does a woman, he thought.”
