II. Expressive essay about the event or character that impressed you in the excerpt 'The Octopus'.
Writer Guyn Véc-nơ in the text 'The Octopus' excerpted from the novel 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea' has brought me interesting associations about the battle between the Nautilus and the giant sea monster. Particularly, I am extremely impressed with the character Captain Nemo.
Firstly, Nemo emerges as a skilled, courageous captain. When faced with the giant octopus, he shows no fear or hesitation. Nemo calmly analyzes the situation and decides to use a harpoon instead of a gun because the bullets cannot penetrate the soft body of the octopus. Upon seeing the tentacles threatening the crew, Nemo swiftly grabs a harpoon and cuts them off, forcing the monster to dive into the sea. Witnessing the octopus wrapping a crew member, he rushes forward, attacks, and cuts off its tentacle. In a moment of danger, Nemo decisively thrusts his harpoon into the monster's mouth. Faced with adversity, Captain Nemo remains steadfast, unwavering, without any hesitation or fear. That is the beauty of human intelligence, ingenuity.
Moreover, Nemo is also a captain full of love and compassion. The phrase 'I have a duty to repay you' to Nettie shows his gratitude, always appreciating those who help him. Especially, the image of the captain with tearful eyes looking down at the sea 'just swallowed one of his compatriots' makes anyone who reads it cannot help but feel sorrowful.
It can be said that from the character, I have drawn a meaningful lesson about love, unity, courage, and readiness to face danger.
Captain Nemo's character will forever leave an indelible impression on me about the spirit of bravery, compassionate heart. Through the character's image, I see the beauty of human strength against the sea and nature.
