当前不少文学作品被改编成电影。
有人选择看电影,有人则喜欢读原著。
请你以“Film or book, which do you prefer”为题,按照下列要点写一篇英语短文:
1、看电影:省时、有趣、易懂
2、读原著:细节更多、语言优美
3、我的看法及理由
注意:1、词数:1502、参考词汇:original work或book in the original(原著)One possible Version
Film or book, which do you preferis that it takes less time to understand the whole story. Besides, the film is usually more interesting, and it is easier to follow.
They think that they can get more detailed information from the original. Meanwhile, the language in the book is possibly more lively and beautiful. home, reading quietly in a situation of my own, and what’s more, I am able to better understand the author’s ideas. In a word, to read the original work is better than to see the film based on it.
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.
Father's Day
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.
What a wonderful surprise!

星期二,我搞值日,匆匆忙忙的,不到五分钟就完成了属于我的工作,便去老师那补习了,到放学回家为止都没在回教室过……
第二天,我哼着小曲儿走进了教室,不过很快就愣住了,大家都安安分分地坐在位子上看书,没有一点声音,安静得连翻书声都能听见。更奇怪的是,大家都愁眉苦脸的,很不开心的样子!这,大家都怎么了,怎么都不说话啊?平时可都不是这样的啊!就连最调皮的王明杰都在认认真真的看书,是不是发生什么事了啊?难道春游不可以去了?还是有同学又惹张老师生气啦?我一边想着许多不祥的可能,一边慢吞吞地走向座位。
可我就是没想到——我们班扣分了!这是我问了我同桌才知道的。我怀着一颗忐忑不安的心坐了下来,看得出,同学们都很失望。是什么地方扣了分?到底是谁?是谁给班级扣分了?真是可恶!我心中充满了疑问。
哦,张老师走进来了,“把课外书放进去!”那声音好冷啊,这还是张老师的声音吗?我看得出,张老师脸上充满了失望、生气、无奈……她看着我们,脸渐渐红了起来,一定是因为扣分的\'事,肯定是扣了不该扣的分!
“大家都应该知道我们班扣分了吧,而且——是卫生扣了分,教室卫生!”张老师看着我们说道。我把头低了下来,突然有种不祥的预感,因为我昨天是搞卫生的。
而张老师见我们没反应,继续说道:“教室卫生一直是我强调最多的一块,可为什么我们还是扣分了呢?……就是因为有些同学把我的话当耳边风,值日不仔细,不认真,拿着扫把乱挥一通就自以为好了,万事大吉了。……昨天扫后面的是谁?”听到张老师最后一句话,我心头一震,啊,难道,难道是我给班级扣分了?
张老师说完便走到门旁的卫生表前看了起来,过了一会儿,有转过身来,说:“谢栩敏,昨天搞后面卫生的是不是你?”我吞吞吐吐地站了起来,点了点头。我分明看到张老师脸上掠过一丝惊讶的神色,不过这丝惊讶又立刻被生气取代了!……
我和张老师谈了许多,她讲的最多的就是万事要细心!不可以大大咧咧,马马虎虎的。是啊,要是我认认真真对待这每周一次的值日,就不会扣分了,我当时完全是应付了事,真是不该啊!
这是我第一次让班级扣了分,但我相信,也绝对是最后一次了!

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.
