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.
大自然总是最明白这道理的。
依米花是个笨小孩儿,她不懂得怎样能飞快地抢来养分,夺来水源,怎样抓紧时机让自己绚烂让自己怒放。她只知道一门心思地长自己的根,一天一点,让它慢慢变深变大,大得足够抓牢土地,足够供给自己营养,然后才不急不缓地开出小小的花来。
毛竹也不怎么灵光,抛在山谷里几年也不动声色,只是一根筋地积蓄着力量,然后一场大雨后,冒出一片青翠,绿遍整个山林。
于是我们看到了沙漠里的小小花朵,她比很多更大更惹眼的`植物都坚韧;于是我们看到了蓬蓬勃勃的竹林,骄傲地摇曳生姿,挺拔清丽。你看,这些笨孩子,谁说他们不是最聪明的?
人类当中会走曲线的也不少。达·芬奇成百上千次地画鸡蛋,堆出了一个流芳百世的大画家;王羲之的一池墨香,染出了一帖龙飞凤舞的《兰亭集序》;陈景润的几麻袋演算纸,砌成了歌德巴赫猜想的阶梯;爱迪生的几千种材料,试出了照亮千家万户的那盏灯泡;李时珍踏千山跨万水尝百草,尝出了一部鸿篇巨著《本草纲目》。他们都不是所谓的“聪明人”,没有那捡着近路走的小心思,只有一股不撞南墙不回头的蛮劲,只知道一直走一直走,不懂回头,也不知道看两边的千般风景万般诱惑。这样看来他们都是笨孩子,可是试问,有哪个“聪明人”达到了这些笨孩子的高度,做到了他们能做的事?
曲径通幽。沿着曲线走也能把你带去光明灿烂的彼岸,但有时候走直线却容易把人引向歧途。看那靠一张脸蛋铺出通向名利之路捷径的明星,如烟花般转瞬即逝。还有那贪官污吏,几张支票赢得的荣华,却只能把人推向无底深渊。
试试看,两点之间,曲线最短。
地球上最后一个人独自坐在房间里,这时,忽然响起了敲门声……
他蹑手蹑脚的走到门旁,屏住呼吸,手缓慢地掀开猫眼,把脸侧贴到门上,左眼紧闭,右眼睁大,眼球死盯着门外,找了几秒,却什么都没有发现,仍旧是一样的景色。他提起的心这下次可落了下来。他拍着胸膛,在心中默念:刚刚一定是神经太紧张,造成了幻听。他刚要走开,突然,“咚咚~~~”那敲门声再次响起,他刚刚落下来的心又再次提起,没等他反应过来,又一次敲门声响起,比上次更加有力,大声。他心想:不管外面是魔鬼是神还是其它什么东西,只能硬着头皮上了!他来到门边,再次掀开猫眼,观察,却仍旧空无一物。他视线往下一移,心底一惊:
那是一个满身穿戴着盔甲的不明生物。那不明生物明明只有五岁儿童般身高,却老态龙钟,相貌与人类相差不远,酒槽鼻,厚嘴唇,眼神如同鹰般锐利,橙色略带银丝的头发和胡子连在一起,身上的铁质盔甲带有一丝丝裂痕,盔甲没有掩盖的手臂上,那应肌肉发达而造成的青筋暴起,右手上提着一个印有狮子头像的锤子,眼镜四处张望,头却不偏离前方,左手不住的敲着门,每一次都比一次用力。他想:这是什么生物?矮人?矮人不是只在传说中存在吗!怎么可能是真的.?不可能!不可能!
就在这时,门外的“矮人”仿佛不耐烦了,提起手中的重锤,两手握住,朝着铁门就是一锤,那怪力硬生生地将铁门凹进去一个大坑,他在门外吓得瘫倒在地上,心中不断念叨着:哪个天仙佛祖上帝耶稣不管是谁都救救我吧!而门外的“矮人”仿佛没垂倒门而发怒,“矮人”将锤子放到地上,震起了一片尘土,其重量可想而知!“矮人”甩甩双手,将锤子提起,又是猛地一发力,里面的人才刚有勇气爬起来逃离,那连门带墙都倒塌下去,带起了一阵尘土,蒙蔽了“矮人”和地球上最后一个人的双目。带尘土过去后,地球上最后一人还在震撼这个怪力,然而“矮人”却马上反应过来,脚上一发力,那势头仿佛猛虎下山般,一下子冲到地球上最后一人面前,以迅雷不及掩耳之势一锤锤死了地球上最后一人。
Dear Dad,
Long time no see, I do miss you. Well, let me tell you something about my life here.To tell the truth, i live a normal life just as anywhere i can live.(我过着一个在任何地方都普通的生活 My life is revolved on work and work.(我的生活除了学习还是学习Frankly,i feel tired sometimes(老实说,我有时候觉得很累.But i see, studying is the whole life to students like me.(但是我知道,学习是像我这样的学生的全部 So no matter how difficult, i will do my utmost .所以不管多艰难,我都会尽自己最大的努力。

地球上最后一个人独自在房间里,这时,忽然想起了敲门声。他大吃一惊,一头雾水,心想:怎么可能?地球上不是只有我一个人了吗?哪来的敲门声呢?不可能呀!难道……难道……是外星人?他悄悄地走到门旁,蹲下身子,躲在那里静静地观察。
敲门声继续传来,“咚咚咚”,响亮而沉重,带着一丝诡异。地球上最后一个人联想起他曾经读过的一本书——《八十天环游地球》,主人公菲利亚·福格那无所畏惧,勇敢加强,不惧怕任务艰难险阻……于是心中顿时充满了坚强的信念,刚才的那些畏惧和害怕消失了很多。
他继续蹲守在门边,外面的敲门声还在继续。没有丝毫停歇的.意思。地球上最后一个人这是恍然回悟起自己就是一个科学家,可以研究一切来历不明的事物,那么还有什么可怕的呢!于是他大胆的推开大门,看见了门外站着一个外星人:四只小腿又细又短,眼睛长大额头上,而且只有一只,全身长满体毛……咦!怎么突然之间消失了?还不待他看清楚,外星人眨眼间就消失得无影无踪。
地球上最后一个人没有多想,立刻返回实验室,小心地放入一种实验药水。天空霎时变得乌云大作、闪电雷鸣交加,天就像要塌下来似的,大雨却始终没有下来。一个小时过去了,两个小时过去了……将近五个小时的时候,突然一声轰炸,一团绿色的烟雾腾空而起,紧接着大门就被这团烟雾砰地一声撞开,随之升上天空消失不见了。
他走出大门,门口站着一只短耳、小鼻,吐着长长舌头的,有着四条又细又长小腿的狗。这只小狗正是在这个地球上唯一留下与他作伴的动物。科学家牵起小狗的前脚,他们一起开始了重建地球的伟大计划。
