A review of the Pursuit of Happiness
“The Pursuit of Happyness” was released on the 15th of December 2006. It is a dramatic story based on a biography of Chris Gardner’s nearly one-year struggle with homelessness. Directed by Gabrielle Muccino, the film stars Will Smith as Chris Gardner, and co-stars Jaden Smith playing Chris’ son, Christopher Jr. For Will Smith’s performance in the film, he was nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Best Actor. The ‘different’ spelling of the title, ‘Happyness’ is seen by Chris Gardner on the building outside the play centre is son attends, which Chris reminds the owners of the building multiple times that it is spelt with an ‘I’.
The film shows us the struggles Chris Gardner has with homelessness. He is bankrupt because he invested his life savings in portable bone-density scanners, which he thought hospitals would be interested in buying, but in the end hardly any doctors wanted one, as they considered it an ‘expensive luxury’. During the struggles, his wife Linda leaves to go to New York and Chris and his son are left in San Francisco with no income and living in a motel. Chris sees interest in become a stockbroker, but to become one he has to go through an internship. Meanwhile, Chris and his son are evicted because they can’t pay rent, and they are forced to go to a homeless shelter, and even one night had to sleep in the bathroom of the underground rail system. During his internship, he never once mentions his financial struggles and at one point he is asked to give one of his bosses 5 dollars for a cab, a sum that he can’t afford. After an intense six months, Chris is taken into the bosses’ office, and is offered a job as a stockbroker, the final scene shows him being in unbelief of the position he was offered and showing his happiness and gratefulness for the opportunity, Chris realises that his financial struggles are over as he now has a job with a regular income.
Christ was unfortunate, for he got a wife who was not understandable at all (though she has her own difficulties and was in bad luck with his business. But he was very fortunate also, for he got a son who was very thoughtful and, I think, tough life experiences always make a great person. It is said that this movie is inspired by a true story, and I want to say, this movie does inspire me a lot. What impressed me most are: Christ’s wife left him because of life pressure; Christ’s love to his son and Christ’s strong belief towards life. Through these, I know that it is not easy to be a good husband and a good Papa, since in reality, only love cannot only make everything. And I also learn that one has to strongly believe in himself, no matter how difficult the situation is, but of course, hard-working is indispensable.

在我书桌的一角,放着一个存钱罐。在旁人眼中可能只是一个普通的小玩意儿,可在我眼中意义非凡。
存钱罐的外形十分别致。看起来像迪斯尼那个人见人爱的小老鼠米妮。存钱罐的颜色光彩夺目,好看极了。它的肚子圆鼓鼓地凸出来,腹部有点凹进去,曲线优美,非常惹人注意。它的腰间还有一个小枷锁,没有钥匙的证明就企图拿走它肚子里的钱币,它可会“翻脸不认人”的。
说起存钱罐的身世,还有一段美丽的邂逅呢!有一天,我到商场玩,不经意间看到了这个存钱罐。我对它一见钟情,千方百计地缠着爸爸妈妈买下它。我对它视若珍宝。
存钱罐里面装的可都是我的血汗钱。那是我做家务的报酬。它忠心耿耿地“保卫”着我的幸苦钱。
每当我需要用钱时,只要开一下钥匙便可。我喜欢我的存钱罐!
我们家乡宝鸡四面环山,一条渭河穿城而过,有水的地方就有桥,渭河上有步行桥、廊桥、吊桥等,我最喜欢的就是新世纪大桥。
新世纪大桥又名彩虹桥,它为中承式拱桥,北接市区经二路,南通广元路。主桥长650米,引桥及道路长800米,桥宽26米,2002年10月1日建成。桥的两侧有红色和银色组成的栏杆,桥下有许多桥墩,像一个个大手把桥托了起来。晚上的桥更美丽,桥上的彩灯闪烁着,给黑暗中又增添了一丝光彩,桥上的霓虹映入河水中,像一幅水墨画。
早晨,桥上的人很多,上班的人背着包,一脸焦急,好像要迟到一样;而桥上的老爷爷在缓缓的打着太极拳,一幅安闲自在的样子;老奶奶在悠闲的散步,脸上露出了和蔼的笑容。来来往往的车很多,有自行车、公交车、私家车,真是车水马龙。
桥面下是渭河,小鸟在河面上自由自在的飞翔,河水静静地流淌,看着周围的一切,在微微的笑,忽然,一条小鱼跃出了水面,打破了短暂的平静,泛起了波纹,河床下有许多灰色的鹅卵石布满河床,河面望着天,向东缓缓流去。
我望着一切,笑得很开心,彩虹桥,宝鸡的翅膀,带领人们飞向远方!
