When I was a freshman in college I watched the film Gua Sha Treatment for the first time, now I am a junior student and I come back to review the movie from a multicultural aspect, I have many different feelings after watching the film again.
At the beginning of the film, XuDatong is given an award and later he delivers a speech. What makes me impressed most is in his speech he says “one day I will become one of you, a truly successful American, today this award proved that America is a true land of opportunity and I am the living proof of that.” At that moment Xu thinks he has realized his American Dream totally with his lovingly wife and adorable son. However, I think it is ironical that to make a speech like that and I assume it is made on purpose to hind a clue for the story's development. How many non—American people have such a beautiful American dream? One of my classmate studies in American now and before he went aboard he told me his American dream is he can stand at the top of the New York. To be honest, I also dream that one day I can get the Green Card living there happily and successfully maybe working at the Wall Street. When Xu gets the award he thinks he entirely melted in the melting pot neglecting the multicultural obstruct, later the plot goes against the way he thinks. And later Quinlan asked Xu'why you be the scapegoat of your father?' Xu answers 'because he is Chinese.' Then maybe Xu knows that there is always a wide gap between Chinese and American cultures.
The second scene is Xu hit his son Denis because Denis hit the son of xu's boss, at the middle of the film xu tells his boss that he hit his own son is only to show his respect to his boss John Quinlan, that time Quinlan feels puzzled “what a Chinese logic”,yes, American can never understand such a logic full of Chinese characteristic, because they respect everyone including the children, they won't beat a child to please the boss, and there is no such a conception of degree between employee and employer, they feel everyone is equal, which is quite different from china.
Connected to the second scene, the third difference I want to analyze is the care for the children. In America, people pay more attention to the right of children which can be seen from the law—leaving children alone at home is illegal, while in China it is so common that almost everyone may experience such loneliness. And Children Welfare Agency does work in America which shows the importance Americans attach to children's right. What's more, I remember a line 'No one won the case, especially the child.' In my opinion, it also manifests the universal concern from the American public to the children.
The fourth aspect is following the procedure, in the film, more than there times, the people focus on the rule, the law, the procedure. At the Christmas Eve Xu wants to return back to his home pretending as a Santa Claus, what a pity, the security recognizes him and persuades 'you are always a good tenement, never causes troubles for me.' And another scene is at the end of the film , the judge says 'I have to follow the procedure.' However, in China people always have to ask for a favor to do something, and later you have to pay back the favor,for myself, I prefer the American style, strict to the procedure.
The fifth and the last point is the humors, Quinlan says 'you can't fall, your health security is the company paid.' 'Datong, welcome home, maybe next time, you can come from the front door.' 'dady, why you come from the window' ' because we don't have a chimney.' I really adore this distinguished American humor, especially in dangerous situations, which is quite rare in China.
That's my whole reaction to Gua Sha Treatment.
我不愿离开,离开一起洒过热泪的朋友,离开收藏着我灵魂的`母校的一草一木一人一事。
可是,那孤独的地方在不停地呼唤我。我知道那里有我一生的拐弯角,有我的前途。我没得选择,我决定离开。
在离开之前,我决定带走我的灵魂,我知道它在我的母校的每一棵花草,每一位同学,每一位老师的身上。详细资料如下:
姓名:我的灵魂 性别:男 年龄:17 状态:非固体非液体非气体 属性:灵属性
万望收藏着它的朋友给我一个电话,一句亲切的问候,一声真心的鼓励,或一个深情的微笑。谢谢!
寂静的午后,灰蒙蒙的天,空气中仿佛被混入了干燥剂一样,呼吸间喉咙干渴得厉害。走在大街上,我转过身,看见一根电线杆,差点撞上。我停下脚步,仔细一看,寻人启“示”?只见电线杆上贴着一张传单,上面赫然写着“寻人启示”。我的嘴角忍不住上扬,露出一个微笑,思绪忍不住飘到三年前。
“好了吗?”小甲问。我忙走过去:“好了,好了,开始吧。”我们一行人坐上了沙发。“谁先啊?”小乙兴奋地跳了起来。“要不,我先上了?”我站起了身。“行啊,开始吧。”小丙已经迫不及待地动来动去了。
我走上前去,将小丁拿过来的卡片翻开,看了一眼便放下。随即又拿起卡片:“不对啊,小丁,你这字写错了!”我的语气中甚至带了点得意:“不是我说啊,小丁你多大了?这么简单的字都会写错了。”
小丁走上前:“错了?怎么可能?在我记忆中是这么写的啊。”
小甲、小乙、小丙也坐不住了:“这局先过啊,我们来看看这字错哪了?”我把卡片递到他们眼前。“寻人启事?没写错啊,梦泇,你想啥呢?”小甲抬起头,一脸正经地看着我。“不会吧?我前两天还在红绿灯那看到过!”我瞪大了眼。当我还想说些什么的时候,一直没说话的小丙开了口:“就是寻人启事啊,我刚搜的百度。”他摇了摇手里的手机。
啊?!这下这脸可丢大发了……我默默坐上了沙发的一角,恨不得找个地方躲起来。“下次记住就好,你又不是第一次了。”小丁朝我笑了笑。呵,这家伙,安慰之后还不忘插上一刀。
“嗯!”我抬起头,说什么也不能再这么丢脸了啊。
所以说,学好汉字真的很重要啊!
她顺着声音走过去,发现是一只小树蛙,蓝莹轻轻地问:“小树蛙,你哭什么呀?”“我妈……妈……去上游有……有事了,可……可是好多天了都……都没回来。”小树蛙抽泣着说。“哦,这样啊,别担心,我去帮你找找,我一定找到你的妈妈。”蓝莹坚定地说。于是,她踏上了寻找树蛙妈妈的旅程。
蓝莹越过了两座山,趟过了一条大河,绕过了五十五座村寨,历尽千辛万苦,终于到了河的上游。
她顺着水流的方向继续走,空气中开始飘散着一股难闻的味道,越往前走气味越浓烈,她连忙戴上了口罩。这时,她发现了一个冒着黑烟的工厂。
她连忙打电话给森林派出所,经过警长黑熊的认真调查盘问,蛤蟆老板终于承认,他这里一直在生产塑料椅子,不但不符合生产标准,而且排污量严重超标,前段时间有只树蛙因为体内吸入了过多的有害气体,中毒晕倒,现在还在森林医院救治。
蓝莹一听,忙赶到森林医院,原来,小树蛙的妈妈就是那个受害者。
一切真相大白。过了不久,树蛙妈妈康复出院了,又回到了小树蛙的身边。而那个黑工厂呢,已经被命令停产,蛤蟆也被关进了监狱。
蓝莹想出去透透气,可她刚钻出水面,就听到了一阵低低的.哭泣声。
