Dad, I love you and I will love you forever!
Yours beloved,

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.
云淡风轻的日子,因友情而可贵;虽然时间让一切风流云散,可藏于心中的,是挥之不去的。
又想起奶茶了。那个叫王艿的俏同桌,那个称我为豆浆的鬼丫头。小学六年,我俩曾坚定不移地融合在一起。我们跳莫名其妙的街舞,唱自词自曲的歌。几乎每天放学后,我们飞向路边小摊,吃香喷喷,松松的,带糖醋的甜,一点点辣的,各式各样的烧烤,五毛钱一串,我俩轮流放风,是怕被前来接我们的'老爸老妈逮个正着,被苦口婆心地骂一通“不讲卫生”。早晨我俩会合买一盒奶茶藏着课间共享;课间我俩会一致“对付”那些欺负我或者待她不理的男孩子们;当然也会为彼此的成绩高出半分一分或者其它的什么事,相持怄气个一天半天的……可此时呢,我俩却相隔千里之遥。在这个陌生的班级里,我一个人强颜欢笑地走进来走出去。
不知不觉,我翘起兰花指拨出了她的手机号码。“喂?豆浆吗?”话筒里又传出那阔别已久而却熟悉之至的嗲声嗲语,没错,是她那总喜欢故作柔媚的聒噪声。我皱着眉头,嘴角却微微上扬,极富抒情化地数落她:“奶茶啊,风采――不减――当年呀!”“过奖过奖,严师出高徒,弟子我哪比得上师父您的鼎鼎大名啊!”奶茶气定神闲地回敬道。臭丫头!我暗笑道,清了清嗓子哼道:“青出于蓝胜于蓝,你果然没令我失望。”“唉,没办法,谁叫我是天才呢!”奶茶叹息着。我笑道:“好了好了,你这个天生的蠢才,不是说好去五中,你怎么跑去上海逍遥了?”“呜呜呜……”奶茶拖着哭腔,“你真没良心?竟丢下我一个人……”“谁没良心了?去上海A中不把你累成植物人才怪!”我凶神恶煞地威胁她,“为啥要去呢?快从实招来!坦白从宽,抗拒从严!”“我投降,我投降,我那不近人情的老妈!硬逼我去破上海!迫于无奈嘛,你大人有大量,就原谅我吧。”不知为何,我突然觉得一向活泼的奶茶语气里竟带有许多忧伤,仿佛被感染似的,我叹了口气说:“是啊,要是你去五中的话那该有多好啊!”奶茶忽然没了声音,我也沉默了,话筒两端无语凝噎。
我马上又恢复轻松的语调:“要是你在五中,我们的‘奶浆’乐队又可以发扬光大了,你跳街舞还是三流呢!”“那叫个性,不过你唱歌倒是能让英国人和中国人同时云里雾里哦!”奶茶也毫不留情地挖苦我,一场唇枪舌战又上演了。聊到最后,我竟有点哽咽:“初中不能同校,那你高中时回来,你要是再敢单飞,我把你五马分尸!”“知道了,说得跟‘不求同年同月同日生,但求同年同月同日死’似的!”我却无力还嘴,脸上已泪流成河,挂断电话,时间仿佛只过了一秒又恍若隔世。奶茶,谢谢你,谢谢我们曾经的美好回忆!但愿我们有再聚首的一天哪!
奶茶伴豆浆,一段怪味友谊,甜蜜醇厚,怎能相忘啊?
今天中午,我的好朋友池恩通过微信给我发了一个她自己制作奶茶的视频,并向不会制作奶茶的我发起了挑战:要是我也能够自己成功做出奶茶,开学以后她就送我一本我最爱的画图本。
我虽然不会制作奶茶,但是我可以学习啊!于是我去联系了开蛋糕店的表姐,并且让她教我制作奶茶,表姐立马答应了,并且把制作奶茶所需要使用到的材料一一发给了我。
我先下楼去超市购买制作奶茶所需要的牛奶和茶叶,还有白砂糖和淡奶油。回到家后把材料拿到厨房,准备好奶锅装满矿泉水后先开始了烧水。在烧水的同时,我又拿出了一个锅,把火开到最大,开始翻炒茶叶。翻炒茶叶是一个十分艰难的步骤,也是制作奶茶中最为关键的一个步骤,翻炒了好一会儿,茶叶才炒干了,可以起锅了,刚好旁边的奶锅中的水也烧开了,于是我便把茶叶小心翼翼的倒入奶锅中的开水中。
按照食谱上的步骤,则需要把炒***茶叶和烧开的.水融合五分钟,但是我没有那么多的耐心,等了三分钟,就等不及了,赶紧开始下一步了。下一步是把牛奶倒入锅中,然后依次加入白砂糖和淡奶油,但是手忙脚乱的我,不小心把淡奶油给打翻了,所以导致我的奶茶中最终没有淡奶油。
再煮个五分钟,就可以出锅了,我的自制奶茶也即将大功告成了。把出锅的奶茶倒入一个玻璃杯中放凉,可是我却迫不及待的想品尝一口,喝了第一口,太苦涩了,再喝第二口,才喝出了奶茶的香味。这次的自制奶茶,也算是成功的了。喝完第一杯之后,我把剩下没喝完的奶茶分给了我的邻居们品尝,邻居品尝过后都说好。
期待我的下一次制作。
