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.
It was a sunlit and enchanting scene of spring morning, when the teachers took us students of Grade 2 to go on our first spring outing. We set off at seven oclock from school. In the warm spring breeze, we were walking there together.
Fifty minutes later, we got to the destination. There, we were going to have a picnic. Some of us cooked rice, some cooked dishes, and some cooked soup. My deskmate, Guo Yunfeng, and I fried eggs. At first, we poured some oil in the pot. When the oil was hot enough, we put the egg into the pot. Soon after that, we turned it over. We were in threes or fours, and we were all bustling with our own tasks.
Times up! The meal was ready. Lets enjoy to our hearts content. Bottoms up!
2.文句短。长句表意丰富,含蓄蕴藉,行文舒缓,给人严谨缜密之感。然而,无深厚的文字功底,加之时的思想紧张,句子一长,极易顾此失彼,造成病句。短句构建快捷,简洁明了,凝练生动,写之顺畅,读之清楚。因此,应力求多用短句,少用长句,长短结合,参差错落。
3.段落短。行文分段不宜太长,段落短小,层次分明,条理清楚,文思脉络显而易见。长段大段,组织不当,便有内容庞杂,冗长累赘,思绪紊乱之嫌。写时尤须力戒“三大段”,防止中间一段连篇累牍,又胖又长,如猪之肥腹,有失雅观。
4.结尾短,范文《议论文点评短语》。抒情怀、凸旨意,不枝枝蔓蔓,不拖泥带水,不画蛇添足,干净利落,戛然而止,余韵悠然。
5.篇幅短。大家知道,中考阅卷正值炎热天气,阅卷工作量大,且有规定的时间,既紧张又辛苦,“鸿篇巨制”显然是不合适宜、不受欢迎的。短小精悍才是选择的上策。当然,通常中考大多都有字数限制,一般在600字左右,写时自然必须按要求去做,但是如果不加控制,过度增字加长,一发而不可收,以致成了“老太婆的裹脚布——又臭又长”,势必让人反感。
6.议论短。议论有画龙点睛之功效。或述感怀或表见解,或评或论,析事剖理,闪金铄玉,当精粹简练,要言不烦,切莫又多又滥。
