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.
我在网上查资料时无意中看到了一个热搜:2022年冬奥会吉祥物亮相!看到后,我好奇地点了进去。
咦,这不就是个普通的熊猫吗?怎么还成吉祥物了?把图片放大一看,这熊猫的外面怎么会有一层冰罩的?这只熊猫真是不简单,光制作就修改了1000多次,真是浩大的工程。
第二天起床,我发现自己正处于一片雪海之中,但却没感到一丝寒冷,一看身体,竟然有一套玻璃似的衣服穿在身上。不过,管他呢!冻不着就行,也顺便看看这是哪?
我走了很长时间,发现我还在家乡,只是地上盖了厚厚的雪,这让我很欣喜,终于能回家了。就在这时,我的.前面出现了一道憨态可掬的身影。那黑白相间的皮肤,眼睛内泛着神奇的色彩,那酷似玻璃罩一样的东西套在身上。这不就是那个什么吉祥物吗?我带着疑惑问:你是不是叫冰墩墩?是的!你想不想出去玩一玩?冰墩墩平静地答道。我想着:玩?既然没事,就恭敬不如从命吧。随即,我点了点头,冰墩墩笑了笑,在身前开了一道传送门。
走出狭窄的传送门,映入眼帘的是鸟巢!冰墩墩自豪地问:知道这儿吗?这可是鸟巢啊,怎么可能不知道?看我一幅震惊的模样,满面笑容说:不错吧!我心想:这个可爱的熊猫还真是不简单,这鸟巢可是举办奥运会的地方,外观也是毋庸置疑的,那流畅的线条,就像真的鸟巢一样,何止是不错,简直完美!冰墩墩带我在鸟巢游玩了很长时间,我们一路欢声笑语,在无意间有了深厚的友谊。
下午,冰墩墩向我展示了他的才艺。我发现他是琴棋书画全面发展,我所有值得炫耀的东西都被他比了下去,更令我佩服的是冰墩墩还长得很好看,真是集智慧与美貌于一身,我不禁称赞:冰墩墩啊,你可真厉害。他很谦虚:哪里,哪里。唉,你饿吗?晚上带你吃大餐!我迫不及待地说:好啊,玩一天可把我饿坏了。
果然,冰墩墩领我大吃了一顿,算是我吃过最美味的饭了。天黑了,我也该回去了。冰墩墩开了传送门,我回头看了远处的他,大喊:谢谢你!冰墩墩边挥手边微笑着,目送我在传送门中消失。
躺在床上,今天与冰墩墩游玩的场景依然历历在目
Father's Day
Yesterday was Father's Day. I had planned to give my father a present. But I didn't remember it until in the morning.It was too late to post a card to him. So I decided to buy something. When I was in the department store. I found it was not easy for me to choose something right for him. Suddenly I
got an idea. I ran home and opened my computer. I made a beautiful card and mailed him through the Internet. then I began to make supper. When father came home, he was very glad to find a big meal on the table. then I asked him to check his e-mail. He was amazed to find a beautiful card in his e-mail-box.
What a wonderful surprise!
墩墩,是我大姨家的儿子,今年只有五岁,乌黑油亮的寸发,长长的睫毛,水汪汪的大眼睛,小巧玲珑的鼻子,樱桃小口,脸蛋儿红扑扑,软嘟嘟的,摸起来好像棉花糖。小弟弟虎头虎脑的,我特喜欢他!
照片上,可爱的'墩墩在吃,在玩,在笑……我看着书桌上那一沓沓厚厚的作业,再看看墩墩那玩得投入的神情,我不禁想:假如我是墩墩,我就可以天天都能喝到自制的香醇下午茶;假如我是墩墩,就可以天天吃到自制的美味甜点;假如我是墩墩,就可以去泡泡屋尽情的玩;假如我是墩墩,就可以天天自由自在地……
假如我是墩墩,那该多好啊!我喜欢现在幸福的生活,更喜欢童年里快乐的我!
