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.

初中学生的英语学习基础参差不齐,给教师的教学带来许多困难。学生学习成绩两极分化严重,普英语学科分化问题更为突出。怎样帮助、指导学生增强学习英语的信心,变厌学为乐学,提高学生的整体水平,从而扭转两极分化现状,已成为每位英语课教师探讨的重要课题之一。
今天上午,我们班上了一堂有趣的英语课。
人都到齐后,老师就开始上课了,她先教我们读单词,只见她吐词清晰,她读一句,我们就跟着读一句,然后再问我们问题,答对时老师就会面对笑容地说:“good或very good。”更有趣的是:她还用玩游戏的方式来教我们学习……
今天这一课道具要用蛋糕,老师先把题讲完,就利用剩下的一个半小时去订做蛋糕,还说:“买回来后就让大家一起分享。”听后,大家都兴奋不已,于是,我们就自觉地打扫卫生,有的扫地,有的洒水,还有的拖地……
大约一个小时以后,我们在二楼看见老师回来了,为了逗老师开心,那些顽皮的小家伙有的躲了起来,有的放起了音乐,还有的吹起泡泡来,老师一进门,呈现在她眼前的是一个“泡泡天地”,我们真的把老师逗笑了,老师把蛋糕放在了许多桌子的正中间,然后轻轻地把它打开了。我们欢呼着把蜡烛插在了蛋糕上并且点燃了,然后用英语唱起了生日快乐歌,当我们正准备吹蜡烛时,老师提醒我们要Make a wish!原来是许愿的意思啊!我在心底里许了个愿,希望以后能当上国家足球队队员。许愿后,我们就吹灭了蜡烛,开始吃蛋糕啦,我故意把奶油弄得额头上、鼻子上、脸上和下巴上到处都是,同班同学都用那流利的英语来描述着我的这张“小丑”的脸,然后,开心地笑了,我们完全变成了一群可爱的外国学生。
今天上午的这堂英语课我们既吃了蛋糕,又学到了英语,真是有趣极了!
