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.
我们刚一进门就看见馆里面一幅热闹的场面,场上在举行开幕式,一看,哇!足足有一千多人呀!好紧张!我心里说道。
我们六个女孩,在那里练了一遍又一遍,这时候程老师喊:“过来化妆啦!”我们一窝蜂全部挤了上去,程老师连忙阻止我们:“一个一个慢慢来,轮流化。”我们乖乖地排成一行。鲁秋庆第一个化,程老师给她化了绿色的`眼皮,红色的脸蛋,粉红色的嘴唇和黑色的眼睫毛。当然,我们每个人也是一样。开始换服装了,我拿着服装定睛一看,哇!橙黄色的服装上有许多金黄色的亮片。我便三下五除二地把服装换好了,我走出来,拉了拉衣服,心想:好合身哟!站在舞台上一定很漂亮吧!
我们在旁边候场的时候,我的心情突然不紧张了,变得很舒畅。该我们上场了,我们六个像平时一样有秩序的跑上场,站好了队形,摆好了姿势。音乐想起来了,我们开始跳。我越跳越起劲,感觉自己已经像飞一样了,我很高兴。随着动作的变化,我觉得自己飘上了云朵。最后,我们用优雅的动作结束了整个健美操。比赛结束,我们回到场边等待成绩。一停下来,我的汗水大颗大颗地从脸上往下流,但我却一动也不动,生怕扣分。我眼睛一斜,突然看见鲁秋庆的手臂上有一只灰色的蚊子正在咬她,她也纹丝不动,我向她投去了敬佩的目光。
终于,报我们的成绩了,仔细一听,天哪!8.53分的高分!我们还是抑制住激动的心情,郑重地出场。一出场我们就欢呼起来:“我们得了一等奖!”
参加这次比赛,我的到了的启示:“梅花香自苦寒来,宝剑锋从磨砺出”。我们六个人是一个整体,要团结齐心,一定会成功。
This is my first week in ** Senior Middle School.Everything here is new for me.Our school is an old school but it`s very beautiful.I have 50 new classmates in my class.They`re all very excellent, I think, and I felt a little sad.Because I`m too common.But come to think of it,it`s a very good thing.I believe I can also be very excellent if I study with such excellent classmates.I didn`t know why Ms *** chose me to be the committee of study.But I know it`s a good chance for me to raise my ability.All I can do is do my best in the future.I am sure that Ms *** and my classmates can help me when I do something wrong. Because they`re all very kind.It`s a pleasure to work and study with them.I`m really very happy.I`m not an outstanding student in this class,but I can do the same thing like others.I believe I won`t make anyone disappointed.
不过,我们也没有因此而放弃健美操的训练,放弃几个月后去烟台参加全国比赛的计划。我们大家又在一起训练了几个月,教练一个动作一个动作教我们怎么发力,怎么漂亮得完成,还因为杭州没有标准的比赛场地,为了让我们找感觉,还特意让我们这些要去比赛的队员,都坐火车去衢州的标准场地去踩板。在那里,我们很多很厉害的大哥哥和大姐姐,甚至还有世界冠军,一起吃了饭,好好的近距离接触了下!训练虽然辛苦,但我们五人操的完成度和完成质量都有了很大的提高。
八月七号到十一号,终于到了去烟台参加全国比赛的时候了,一跑进比赛营地,就看到很多穿着不同比赛服装的运行员,有不少还在进行最后的阵前排练,感觉他们的水平都很高,这些应该就是我们的对手吧!心里就对明天的比赛有点忐忑不安了。
说来也怪,第二天一到场上就没有这么紧张了,脑子里只记得平时教练说的要点和重点,跟着音乐和节奏自然而然地跳了起来。最后比赛结果还不错,拿到了第二名。这和我们平时刻苦训练是分不开的。只要有努力,只要有付出,就会有回报。
下午,我们整装待发。乘坐第二课堂的专车向贺龙体校进发!到了那,一栋栋红白砖瓦的教学楼映入眼帘。学校门口的大显示屏上写着“中学生运动会健美操赛点:贺龙体校欢迎您!”天空中蓝色的.气球在微风中慢慢地摆动着。五颜六色的花坛在彩旗的衬托下,显得更加艳丽。校园不像原来那样热闹,而是特别的幽静。这可都是志愿者的功劳呀!
我们来到场馆内时,已经来了几个观众了。我们赶紧在前排找了个好位置坐下。整个场馆的座位分为两边,其中一边就被湖南省的长郡中学的啦啦队给占了!
“湖南队加油!”在啦啦队的欢呼声中,我们湖南队自信的走上了舞台。“湖南!长沙!Let’s go!go!go!”开始了!在一阵浑厚粗旷的摇滚乐中,湖南队开始了精彩的表演。要想在这项比赛中获得第一,那可有点难!但我们湖南健美操健儿非常投入,动作整齐,把一个接一个的高难度动作呈现给观众,队员们的脸上充满了自信的笑容,他们忘记了紧张,忘记了劳累。
最后,湖南队尽管没有得第一,只排了第三名。但我们为他们感到骄傲。他们为今天几分钟的表演付出了很多很多!湖南感谢他们为我们争得了荣誉,我一定要向他们好好学习!
