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.
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.
这八天的校园生活,可以说,它既给我带来了快乐,但是,它也给我带来了悲伤!
在星期一的下午,我依旧在写着英语作业,这个时候,一道题,使我陷入了久久地沉思中……时间一分一秒的过去,我还是浸在这道题的海洋中……这时,我想起了她——我的`英语老师!
于是,便打算和朋友去问题,可是,老师还在她的班级,不出来,没有办法,只到站在走廊里面等待着……
天空渐渐地黑了下来,我和朋友有一些无聊,便开始说笑,玩耍,打闹,正当她把我从教室里推出来的时候,英语老师从她的班级里出来了。
当我看到了寇老师,心里便开始紧张了起来,一串串问号马上蹿到了我的脑中:“完了完了,我和朋友玩耍,肯定让寇老师看到了,她会不会说我呢?会不会……都是xx推我,不然才不会……”想到这里,我迅速跑回了班里,马上把朋友拉了出来,想趁现在去问题,可是,老师已经到了办公室。
没有办法,我们只好向办公室走去,一路上,我们是打打闹闹地来到了办公室。没有想到,到了办公室门口,我们又开始议论,让谁先进办公室,最后,朋友没有任何办法,只好先进了。
一进办公室,老师为我们讲解完我们的问题后,就对我们说:“这两个人可在班里面玩儿好了,现在就开始笑呀!看看!笑的!”老师一边笑,一边对我们说。我和朋友都不约而同的笑了起来。
可是,在第二天发生的事情,让我永远都无法忘记。
那天下午,我和朋友照旧去问题,这次是朋友有不懂的题。
到了办公室,老师为我们讲题,还时不时地问我们一些问题,可是,也不知道为什么,平时那些我都会,怎么一到这里,全部都忘了?可能是紧张的原因吧!寇老师见我们半天没有回答,就对我们说:“哎呀!我真想一人揍你们一下!”而且,她的表情,不是生气的表情,虽然是笑着说的,但是,可以看出,她简直是无可奈何,连这么简单的问题,都回答不上来,老师能不这样嘛!
当我们走出了办公室,寇老师又突然对我们说:“学过的东西都忘地光光的!”我和朋友听后,都不好意思的笑了。
开学后的这两件事情,我永远都不会忘记,因为,老师这样做,都是关心我们,我不会辜负您对我们的期望!

你们好!
很长时间没写信了,格式都块忘记了,请原谅。在我的记忆中,这好像是我第二次给你们写信了。我在这里生活的很好,就是前些日子我们的热水器坏了,只能冲冷水澡了,不过你们放心,现在热水器又开始工作了。这里的生活也挺忙碌的:上午3节课,下午3节课,晚上还要晚自习,早上还有早自习呢,大概都是45分钟一节课。在这里,我交了许多好朋友,她们有从苏州来的,有从海盐来的',还有一位是杭、苏人(生在杭州,但在苏州读书),我们下课一起玩耍,上课一起分享知识的蜜果,别提有多高兴了!
不过在夏令营中,我认为最倒霉的事是:和张?宁一个房间。现在在我们班里,她可是臭名远扬,几乎所有的人都讨厌她,都恨不得以她为敌。为什么呢?因为她骄傲自大,以为在她们班的QQ群上是老大,就觉得在这个班上也是老大,就摆出一幅老大的架子,谁看着都讨厌,她总是命令别人去做这做那,自己却很不守信用。记得有一次,我借她小灵通玩,然后让她帮我洗一下衣服(那天我的手指破了,洗起衣服来非常痛。)她一口答应了,结果到了洗衣服的时候,却说:“你这些衣服这么脏,这么烂,谁高兴给你洗,自己洗去!”我非常生气,就说:“那我也不借你小灵通玩了!”她若无其事地回答道:“不玩就不玩,谁稀罕你这破小灵通啊?”我当时火冒三丈,但没办法,只好依着她来了。记得还有一次,她妈打电话来说要做剑桥作业,她自己嫌难,懒得做,竟然叫苏雯珍帮她做,当时苏雯珍正好没事做,就答应她了,事后苏雯珍也挺后悔的,但是张?宁,一点儿也看不出后悔,依然消遥自在。张?宁自称学过跆拳道,就总欺负人,到现在已经踩黄阅的脚n次了,却一次对不起都没说,她上一次把王心怡的头撞了,却把责任推到我身上。她自己要面子的来要死,在暗地里却总是嘲笑别人,搞得她变成了人见人恨的“大仇人”。
爸爸妈妈,这几天我好想你们,老是躲在被窝里偷偷的哭。自从到了杭州,我才知道你们平日里照顾我有多么辛苦了,我以后再也不向你们乱发脾气了。
祝身体健康快快乐乐每一天

The Role of Mobile Phone in People's Communication
The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.
There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with people's real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.
In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.
