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.
望一眼窗外,突然发现看不到蓝天、白云,天地间一片灰色的景象,连对面的楼房也只有朦胧的轮廓。这样的天气越来越频繁,雾霾正无声无息地笼罩着我们的城市。雾霾是雾中悬浮着大量的烟、灰尘等微粒而形成的混浊现象。据环保部遥感卫星监测:1月29日中国范围内有130万平方公里的地区被雾霾笼罩,空气质量严重污染。
那雾霾天气是怎样来的呢?很多家庭都拥有小汽车,我们的出行更便捷了,但汽车的尾气排放污染空气;电厂、炼油厂、化工厂在我们的城市里“大显身手”,但夜以继日地不断排放出煤烟和灰尘;绚丽的烟花爆竹让人目不暇接,但空气中烟雾腾腾,变得非常混浊,空气质量急剧下降,PM2.5、PM10指数直线上升,这些都是造成雾霾的主要原因,它们在带给我们快捷方便、赏心悦目的同时,也悄悄给我们带来了意想不到的后果。
雾霾的天气,我们呼吸的是混浊的气体。空气中的霾会引起肺炎、咽喉炎、气管炎、心脏衰落等疾病。1952年,英国伦敦的那场大雾似无形的***手,在短短五天内就夺取了4000人的生命,在之后两个月内有夺去了8000人的生命,可见大雾的威力,也该给我们敲响了警钟。我们要的是清新的空气,要的是健康的体魄。
请不要以牺牲健康为代价,而换来所谓的美好生活。少开车,绿色出行,多种树,保护森林。治霾,从我做起。
依然还记得入团上父亲、母亲的职业栏上两个重复的“务农”大字,因为如果让追溯祖上八代的身世,职业栏上不过是再重复着多书写几遍这两个字而已。
是啊,我拥有什么呢?我离高富帅的距离比生和死还遥远,离官二代的距离可能要追溯到唐末宋初。我似乎不知道我拥有什么,却已经知道我失去了什么,将失去iphone、名表和跑车,更将失去心中那完美的女神……
然而,一位把刀缸少年告诉我:珍惜拥有!
依然记得学校食堂里一碗饭吃出6只半苍蝇的那一幕,因为到现在我还在纠结那半只苍蝇让谁给偷吃了。
曾有人问我:你拥有什么?
是啊,我拥有什么呢?早上吃着地沟油油条、苏丹红咸蛋,喝着三聚氰氨奶营养早餐,中午是瘦肉精肉炒农药韭菜,人造鸡蛋,石蜡翻新陈米饭,晚上是尿素豆芽,石膏豆腐配染色馒头。据说,东邪西毒南帝北丐已各据一方,占领了祖国江山。我似乎不知道我拥有什么,却已经知道我失去了什么,将失去城管体魄以保家卫国收复失地的夙愿…
写到这,我知道文章虽然不错,但是老师会给评语说我跑题了。
呵呵,你说我跑题,我说我根本没看题目。
