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.
The person I admire is my mum. She is an English teacher. She is very popular among the students because she spends lots of time on her lessons and has a good sense of humor. Students all enjoy her class.
My mum is not only a good teacher, but also a great mother. She is patient with me and always smiling while talking. My mum teaches me how to think independently and helps me to build up my confidence. When I have some difficulties in my studies, it is my mum who encourages me to work until I solve the problem. When I’m feeling sad or bad, it is also my mum who looks after me with care.
I remember when I caught a fever at midnight last year, my mum took me to the hospital as fast as she could. When we got home after my injection, it was about 5 o’clock in the early morning. My mum only slept 2 hours because she had to wake up at 7 o’clock to prepare breakfast for me, and then she went to work. She must be very tired that day.
My mum is not very beautiful, but I admire and love her.
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!
我们班级里的昆昆是个特别有正义感的孩子,很勇敢。如果班级里某某小朋友受到别人的欺负时他总会像个小英雄一样,保护别人。但他的方式总是会引起别的小朋友的反感,甚至有的时候会伤及到别人。一面为了想要发扬昆昆的正义感,但另一方面又想让昆昆能够换一种方式去“伸张正义”,我感到一些棘手。终于一件事情的发生,使得这个问题不得不去面对了。那天,昆昆正在和别的孩子一起观察小乌龟呢,小乌龟爬在乌龟爸爸的身上,真有趣。也许是出于对乌龟宝宝的喜欢、可能也许是为了保护乌龟爸爸,突然,洋洋的小手不自觉的伸向了那两只乌龟,想要把它们拎出来,昆昆看见了,显得特别的愤怒,一下子就把住了洋洋的手,并且把洋洋往自然角外面拽,想让他赶紧离开小乌龟。洋洋被他都拽到地上了,可昆昆还是没有一点松手的意思。我看到了这一情景赶紧制止了昆昆,昆昆特别着急地对我说:“老师,洋洋他伤害乌龟,我要保护他!!!!”看到这里,我有点生气,要让昆昆道歉,可是昆昆依旧重复着那句话,他觉得他的想法和做法是非常正确的。可此时,我转念一想,那句想要保护动物的`铿锵有力的话语把我想要批评昆昆的话先吞了回去。我明白,简单粗暴的方式去面对眼前的昆昆是什么作用都起不了的,甚至还会引起他的反感。
我拉着昆昆的手,微笑着让他坐到我的旁边,轻轻地拍着他,刚刚还情绪激动的昆昆,此刻变得安静了。我与昆昆讨论起了这件事情,昆昆也很乐意把事情的经过讲给我听,在集体中,我表扬了昆昆的勇敢、正义,同时也希望所有的孩子都能够和睦相处,知道动武是解决不了问题的。
读《在反思中成长》一书时,也发现了类似这样的案例,面对调皮的孩子,捉弄同伴无所不能,并且不认错,细心的老师的做法给与了我处理此类事件的启发。
首先可以利用家访了解孩子的家庭环境,也许这样“调皮”孩子的家长也可能是非常权威性的,管教严厉,认为不打不成才,所以处理一切事情都是以武力来解决。这样不正确的教养方式,一定要让家长清楚地了解到这对孩子的成长是有害无利的;其次,老师还要抓住这个宝宝的“闪光点”,如我们班级的昆昆是个非常爱帮助别人的人,那么老师可以让昆昆担当起“乐于助人”小标兵,给他戴上我们班级里特有的标志头饰,让昆昆继续帮助别人,同时也鼓励别的孩子努力帮助别人,争取也当上“乐于助人”小标兵。让昆昆经常得到表扬,以正面的方式教育他。
笔者所举的这个例子,虽然很常见,虽然很简单,但处理的方式却值得我们去深思,如果我们反其道行之,简单粗暴的对待孩子的“伤害行为”,相信孩子不仅不会有所改变,甚至还会“变本加厉”的更加粗暴。也许他的初衷是好的,但是这样的方式会使得一个善良的孩子变得陌生。任何一个人都不希望孩子变成那样,我们不需要单纯直接地告诉孩子对或错,只要你、我多用心、用爱心、用耐心,使孩子得到一些转变。
