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.

One possible version:
The summer holiday is coming. Our class have had a discussion about what to do during the holiday. Some are in favor of staying at home. They think it’s both convenient and comfortable. What’s more, they can save money for other purposes. But they will lose the chance of getting to know the outside world.
However, others prefer to go out for traveling since it can increase their knowledge and broaden their horizons. But they will spend more money and meet some difficulties while traveling.
In my opinion, it would be much better to stay at home, for I can do what I like, such as reading books, watching TV, and helping my parents with the housework.
这是我第一次陪着同学熬夜,这也是我人生中的第一次感受熬夜的清晨。
开学的第一天,我被分配到了C520寝室。原本以为宿舍生活枯燥乏味的我,却在这一天彻底改变了想法。
一个寝室住八个人,说宽也不宽,说挤也不挤。夜晚,准备睡觉了,宿管阿姨关掉了走廊和所有寝室的照明灯,顿时,四周变得黑漆漆的一片,就犹如掉进了煤堆一般。我本以为即将在这伸手不见五指的黑暗中度过这个宁静的夜晚,但随着一缕刺眼的手电筒光,这份宁静被打破了。
“五号床,快把门关紧!”二号床的舍友朝五号床的舍友小声喊道。
“没问题。”五号床回应,很快便下床跑去关门了。
我呆呆地望着手持手电筒的二号舍友,心里疑惑着:“咦,有什么事吗?为什么要开手电筒?为什么要关紧寝室门?”种种疑问浮现在脑海,几秒后才反应过来。
对哦,今天中午好像听他们说晚上要熬夜,难道……他们真的要这么做吗?我默默地想。不一会儿,三号、四号、六号、七号、八号都起来了,他们陆陆续续下了床,坐到了冰凉的大理石地板上。
我也下意识地下了床,和他们七个坐在一起。
四号床首先发话:“同志们,这是我们C520第一次集结,为了表示庆祝,我们今天晚上不睡觉了!”
“好!”其他六个人喊了起来,我也附和着弱弱地应了一声。
说罢,除了我以外的七个人便开始聊了起来。夜聊对于我来说那么新奇。
我勉强地钻进了他们所聊的话题中去,同他们一齐聊了起来。
在大家的聊天中我慢慢知道了,二号床姓缪,是一个富家公子,家里开着皮革厂。五号呢,姓章,来自我所住小镇旁边的一个村子,是一个农民的孩子。四号和我来自同一个小镇,只不过,我们两家住得比较远,所以之前没有机会认识。
其他的人,我也草草地认识了。就这样,我们越聊越起劲,越聊越入迷,从家人到小学母校到兴趣爱好……最后,竟到了凌晨2点钟,因为实在太疲倦才各自上床睡觉。
这次的夜聊,给了我一次前所未有的体验,真的非常有趣,非常新奇。不仅让我第一次认识了这些舍友,也给我留下了一生都难以忘怀的记忆。
