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.
亲爱的爸爸:
您好!
我在学校里过得很好,只不过最近有件事很不安,就是我与同学的关系不知怎的,从好到最近却白热化了,弄得大家都不开心,作文之小学六年级作文:写给爸爸的一封信作文。平时和我相处不错的一位同学,到最近两周却有些闹翻了,下课了有时他无聊地打我几下,我与同学发生误会时他几句挑拨离间的话使我很不愉快,可这些我都忍了,即不还击,也不去主动和好,原以为他能就此罢休,万万没想到他竟然在上课也干扰我。本来到期未了,时间更紧了,我生怕听课漏了一个字,可他偏偏坐在我后面!上课时不时骂我一句,可最今人生气的是他竞一边重重地打我背,还踢我书包,当时我忍无可忍,火冒三丈,转过身失声地大叫“别搞了”。这下全班震惊,老师见状,便扣了我的分,这下。委屈涌上心头,心想:我招你惹你了,连老师也冤枉我,我大叫是不应该,可他在后面打我却一分不扣。当时我心里愤愤不平。对他只有怨恨。且他每天如此,使我心烦意乱,想起他就头痛。可仔细想想,平日里在某些细节里由于不注意难免会这样,我也不想我俩的友谊就此结束,可我该怎么办呢?爸爸,帮帮我。
除了这件小事,其它的都很好,您不用为了这种芝麻小事为我担心,我会有办法的。您还好吧,最近工作忙吗?对了,过几个月您都为了考试英语而天天学习上班两边倒,上周考完了,这周可以好好轻松轻松了。好了,就说到这儿。
祝您:身体健康!
万事如意

亲爱的爸爸:
您好!
夜深了,我坐在灯下给您写信。
春节过后,您就离了我到新疆去打工了,我十分想念您。您现在身体健康吗?工作顺利吗?生活愉快吗?
我知道你是多么地疼爱我呀!我睡觉老是不会睡,经常是睡着了就把被子蹬到一边,冻醒了才知道。你在家的时候,经常给我盖被子,睡觉从来没被冻着过。每一年春节,你都会从遥远的新疆赶回家来看我们。
每次都会给我买三、四套漂亮的衣服和许多新疆的特产,有葡萄干、哈密瓜等。你经常问我的学习情况,只要我想买课外书,你就一定让我满意的。有一次,我考试成绩下降了,我非常着急,担心你会责骂我的。可你知道了,只是轻轻地说:“这次考差了,没关系的,下次认真一点就行了。”
我还想告诉您:我们家的大狗下了三只可爱的小狗,我知道你非常喜欢小狗,我一定会把这三只小狗养得肥肥的,你过年回来看见了一定会很开心的,顺便带一只到你的身边,让它陪伴着您。
我和弟弟都很乖,学校老师和同学们都很喜欢我们。爷爷奶奶身体也很健康,我也会照顾他们的,您就安心地工作吧,不用担心。您在外边不但要照顾好自己,还要照顾好妈妈哟。您要代我向妈妈问声好。爸爸、妈妈,我爱你们。
祝您一切都好!

亲爱的爸爸:
您好吗?
最近住在我们家楼上的那一家搬走了,我很开心!他们住在我们家楼上的这四年,每一天都会发出很大的噪音,影响了我的学习和休息。
记得那一天晚上,我吃完饭跑到房间写起作业。大部分作业很快做完了,就剩数学试卷上的的最后一道思考题。这是一道奥数题,我左思右想也想不出来,非常苦恼,正在思考得脑仁疼的时候,突然听到楼上传来了“滋滋”的声音。这声音就像有个电钻正在我的头顶钻洞,感觉脑子要爆炸了
我知道是楼上那一家的狗又在抓地板了,他们家天天发出这样的声音。这时我实在受不了了,随手拿起一本书,扔向了天花板,只听见那“滋滋”声音越来越快,越来越响,仿佛天花板都要被它抓一个洞。
听到响声,妈妈走了进来,说:“你不要惹它了,说不定它就消停了。楼上这家人的素质真差,早走早好。”过了一会儿,果然没动静了。时间不早了,我洗漱准备上床睡觉。没想到,刚闭上眼,“滋滋”声又开始了
如今,他们那一家终于搬走了,我很开心。他们搬走的第二天,我和妈妈决定上去看看。推开门,大吃一惊,当初租给他们的时候特意刚刷了白墙,现在成了黑墙,上面布满了很多的涂鸦、鞋印、狗爪印遍地的狗毛和灰尘;厕所的马桶池内已经成黑黄色,妈妈用了整整一瓶消毒液才让陶瓷漏出些白色出来。我们怀疑他们家这几年都没有打扫过卫生,妈妈决定以后再也不把房子租给别人了。
爸爸,以后我就可以睡好觉了,您高兴吗?希望您能早点回家,我今天就写到这儿吧!
此致
敬礼
您的儿子孙兴
