Ernest Miller Hemingway，one of six children， was born into the family of a small town doctor at Oak Park，Illinois， on July 21，1899．His parents wanted him to become a doctor or a musician， but after graduation from high school，he began his writing career（生涯）as sports reporter for the Kansas City Star．
When World War I broke out，Hemingway left his job and tried to join the army．After repeated rejections，he was finally accepted as an ambulance driver with the Red Cross in Italy，where he was badly wounded two weeks before his 19th birthday．
After the war, Hemingway went to live in Toronto，Canada，where he worked for the Toronto Star．Two years later, in 192l，he went to work for the International News Service．in Paris．From 1921 to 1927，he lived in Europe，where he wrote his first three works：Three Short Stories and Ten Poems（1923）；In Our Time（1924），a collection of short stories；and The Torrents of Spring（1926），a novel，which went unnoticed by the public．
With the publication of The Sun Also Rises in 1926，Hemingway's first major success as a novelist was established．This novel is considered by many critics（評論家）to be his finest work．In 1927 Hemingway published a collection of short stories called Men Without women, The following year he returned to the United States, where he lived for the next ten years at Key West, Florida. There he worked on A Farewell to Arms（1929）, a novel based on his World War I experiences. In 1932 Hemingway published Death in the Afternoon, a moving study of bullfighting, a subject in which he had shown a constant interest both in his short stories and in The Sun Also Rises.
The Old Man and the Sea（1952）tells of an old Cuban fisherman who, after a run of bad luck, hooks a giant marlin. The story of the old man's struggle with the fish, of his final victory which turns into defeat as sharks attack the catch and reduce it to a skeleton, ends with the words,“Man is not meant for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”The novel led to Hemingway's receiving the Pulitzer Prize given each year for distinguished American fiction.

Key West, Florida is a wonderful place to spend a vacation. It is a truly charming and fun city for the whole family. And of course you will get the good weather of Florida, with which you have plenty of time to enjoy the outdoor activities.
Key West is the most southern city in the continental USA. That is why their sunsets are so amazing. The sun is brighter there at sunset than anywhere else. It’s so beautiful that everyone gathers every evening at Mallory Dock to watch it. And there you will see jugglers (玩雜耍的人) and musicians entertaining in the streets.
The houses surrounded by trees and flowers are lovely in Key West, and many are restored and absolutely charming. There are too many hotels, inns, guest houses and restaurants to talk about. They all look great and their prices change according to seasons, and you can find something to suit every pocketbook and every taste.
At the seaport you will see various boats. It’s very interesting. The city is rich in history and was home to Ernest Hemingway. Harry Truman chose it for his winter White House. There are so many public transportation—taxis, tour trains, trolleys, bikes—and you can even walk if you choose. There are beautiful coral reefs. The deep reefs are farther off shore and are best visited with an experienced guide. However, there are shallow reefs close in where snorkelers (潛水者) can explore to their heart’s content. At Key West Marine Park you can do some good snorkeling. In Key West you can go diving, fishing and do all sorts of water sports.
The problem with Key West is that no one ever wants to leave. Be sure to take your camera with you because you will want to snap (拍攝) everything you see. And whatever you do, be sure to take in the sunset because it is nothing like anything you have ever seen.
