Although determined to kill the fish, Santiago says that he loves and respects it, and on the third day of his struggle he says,

"Never have I seen a greater, or more beautiful, or a calmer or more noble thing than you, brother. Come on and kill me. I do not care who kills who" (p. 92). Is Santiago ennobled by his fight? Does it define his character?

Answer:

Santiago is ennobled for having managed to fight such a majestic fish. This defines his character, as someone he recognizes as a wonderful openente, besides, he already feels victorious for being able to face this openente, even if it causes his death.

Explanation:

Although you haven't shown the book that this question refers to, we can see that you have an excerpt from "The Old Man and the Sea," which is a book that tells the story of Santiago, an aging fisherman who can't catch anything for days, until he came across the most wonderful, majestic, and tough fish he'd ever seen. During this fishing, Santiago learns many concepts and begins to interpret life, the sea and fishing in different ways. These reflections make Santiago admire the fish and see him as a wonderful opponent. He feels good to be able to participate in this fishing and although he wants to kill the fish, he doesn't care if the fish kills him, because he already feels victorious.

This is not actually about nature it’s meaning nothing good can stay. In the outsiders this poem is used. When Johnny dies he says stay gold to Ponyboy meaning stay good.

Why is ecology important? What is its impact in today's world?
Virty [35]
Ecology gives all species including us; food, water, shelter, and so on.The smallest difference can set everything off balance. A good example would be global warming. You would think that 2 degrees every decade would be a small change, but nothing in ecology is small. Plants need a certain temperature to thrive, if that temperature changes they die. A certain animal may be dependent on that plant for food and when that plant dies so does that animal. Another animal may also be dependent on that other animal for food, and with that animal gone it will also die. It's a viscous cycle that holds lots of power on us humans.

What kind of poem reading does the following represent?
slamgirl [31]
The kind of poem reading that the lines above represent is literal reading. There are no figures of speech here, such as metaphors, personifications, etc. which is why it's not a symbolic, figurative, or analytical reading. There is nothing to analyze here - the lines just tell the story of an eagle searching for its prey - it can't get any more literal than that.
