Yesterday was Father's Day. I had planned to give my father a present. But I didn't remember it until in the morning.It was too late to post a card to him. So I decided to buy something. When I was in the department store. I found it was not easy for me to choose something right for him. Suddenly I
got an idea. I ran home and opened my computer. I made a beautiful card and mailed him through the Internet. then I began to make supper. When father came home, he was very glad to find a big meal on the table. then I asked him to check his e-mail. He was amazed to find a beautiful card in his e-mail-box.

梦想,是人生的羽翼。尽管教书是我的职业,读书是我的嗜好,但回首曾经,能拥有一间清静的墨香四溢的书房,晴窗万卷,笑看流年,却是我最大最真的梦想!
正像梁实秋先生所说的,书屋,尽管是一个非常典雅的名词,但在旧时,唯“士大夫人家才有书屋”吧!愚生也晚,虽是红旗下的新社会,但恰值20世纪七十年代,乡下的故土田园并不容我有丝毫的关于书房的念想。那些年,自家的两间土坯草房里,光线昏暗,墙体斑驳,除了两张木床,便是破烂的农具,还有一些杂乱无章的生活用品。我和弟妹们看书写作业,总是依赖一条狭长的板凳,在门前的大树下你推我挤地完成。若逢着阴雨天气,便只能弓腰撅腚地趴在屋内床上“鬼画符”一番了。其时,家中也根本没什么书看,床头枕下,偶尔倒能翻出一本半旧的《***语录》来,那是爹娘的时代记忆了,像现在的孩子爱看的《安徒生童话》《格林童话》等翻译作品,抑或皮皮鲁、马小跳之类,更是闻所未闻,梦中也无。既无书,又谈不上爱读书,又奢望什么书屋呢?
我到省城读中专时,仿若毫无缘由,忽然就对书着了迷,读而上瘾,整日里手不释卷。之所以有书可读,有闲得读,盖因学校有一座四层高的图书楼,楼内藏书无数,而其时我们的课程也并不紧张,吃住皆在校舍。我那时对随园主人提出的“书非借不能读”这一观点委实是“顶礼膜拜”——一来囊中羞涩,无钱买书;二来亦无须购阅,图书馆便是我这书虫的超级“书房”。所以,中专四年,书梦未曾休,书房梦却难得做一回。亦可说,那样的青春岁月里,书于我,重在“读”,而非“藏”,或曰“拥有”。我甚至自视颇高,觉着唯有图书馆才是一本本著作典籍的最好归宿,而不是被私人所独占独赏。
毕业那年,我被分至小城某企业工作。先是栖身于集体宿舍,人多物杂,生活繁乱,偶尔躺在单人床上翻翻书,疲了,倦了,便随手撂在一边,并无珍藏之心。书,大多还是借来的,有单位的,也有小城图书馆的。借而读,读而还,来有影,去无痕。当然,偶逢手头宽裕了,或于书店看中了一本心仪已久,偏偏图书馆又难寻的书,我亦会毫不犹豫地乐购而返。天长日久,竟也积了不少,因居室大家共用,无处摆放,所以东一本,西一本,床角,枕畔,餐桌上,鞋盒里……书影散乱,举目可见。其时,我有意无意地亦开始了写作的练习。但室内仅有的一张桌子亦是“多功用”的,上面常常粘了饭米粒,泛着啤酒沫,有时甚至还躺着两双臭袜子。加上同室兄弟们兴趣不一,工余闲暇还要用它打牌、下棋来调剂生活,故尔,即使我灵感突至,欲捉管为文,常常亦是草草收场。慢慢地,我在心底也就萌生了独居一室,可以自由读书、恣意写作的渴望。或者说,书房即卧房,卧房亦是厨房,三合一倒无所谓,总之得“离群索居”。然而,当时单位的境况是江河日下,弟兄们撑不住,相继摇首跳出,我也交了一纸辞呈,转身下了江南。走时,宿舍里已是狼藉满目,那些年购的书,我也只是随身带了痴爱难舍的几本,其余的,只能忍痛换作远行的盘缠了。书房梦于我,依然遥不可及。
在小城漂泊时,一个女孩竟相中了喜欢读书写字的我,给了我一个家。房子虽是租来的,且仅有两间,但,这似已足够。情郁于心的我仿佛一下子找到了恣肆倾泄的决口,在三年的时间里,不仅潜心凝虑地研读了大量的文史哲典籍,还顺利拿到了文学学士学位,走上了教师工作岗位。郑板桥曾笑吟:“室雅何须大,花香不在多。”这句话真是说到我的心坎里了。窗外虽非帘幕几重,阑干几曲,屋内却也报刊遍地,奇书满床。改作业,批试卷,乐而读,读而作……小小书屋“锁不住五夜书声”,承载了、容纳了我太多的荣辱悲欢,催我奋进,教我自省,甚至,使我从根本上忘记了它是租赁而来的。
20XX年,我们终于挥别了租房岁月,搬进了用住房公积金贷款置办的新家。新家三室一厅,明净敞亮,我的书屋梦,也终于变成了现实——无事此静坐,有情且赋诗。那些跟随我辗转多年、不离不弃的书卷文集,亦终于有了一隅歇脚地。想想,我本是普通的乡村中学教师,读书与写作,既是工作需要,亦是业余嗜好;既算闲情逸致,亦为精神追求。我所憧憬并享受的,是陆放翁“读书有味身忘老,病经书卷作良医”的从容之至与淡泊之趣,尔今,梦已成真,我的书屋我的梦——祖国在发展,城乡在进步,我有理由相信,一切都将不再是梦,夙愿终偿在今朝!
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.
