Today, I read a book called "secret garden" in the book, is the United States benai close-up.
Among them, the twenty-seventh chapter I felt most was "in the garden". The story is about the self closing Marie and self doubt Colin. They become lively and cheerful under the leadership of the garden, but when they are happy now, Colin's dad appears. His father lived a happy life with Colin and Mary.
After reading this book, it makes me feel happy is the book of life. If people lose their happiness, they are like the walking corpse. Without happiness, there is no joy of success, no tears of failure, no treasure after losing, no feeling of all. The garden is born in happiness, in the tragedy of the dust, and in the joy of opening, this is a dramatic change! This whole process is like a fairy tale, a woman in the story, she since her husband died, she put all the relics of husband away, trying to forget him, but her son looks like her husband, so she took her son to others, then she wanted to shut myself you wronged the things at home, think she was angry, think she was angry, finally put himself to death.
After reading the "secret garden", I learned: make myself happy! I can't change the world, but at least I can change myself. From now on, I'm going to get rid of my bad problems and make myself happy.
Recently, I read a book called "the wizard of Oz" book, feel good.

Which I do not love is oz because he cheated the people up to ten years, he has no mana, yet pretend force is infinite, and no one can.

By reading this book, I understand a truth that friendship is the most important, Rosie to save their dog, stand up and fight the lion, timid is self protection partner, and the ferocious tiger to bear on these examples, all praised the friendship, friendship will be given to you help, friendship will give you strength, from now on, to help others, make friends, let us feel the power of friendship!
This summer holiday,I made a good friend --- Robinson though ‘ROBINSON CRUSOE’. ‘ROBINSON CRUSOE’is a classical masterpiece which attracted me very much,and brought me much enlightenmet.I really lerned a lot of things from the eternal opus.
The ‘ROBINSON CRUSOE’have been authored by famouse English writer---Defoe. It’s about dramatis personae Robinson who met a frightful wind while he sailed on the sea. He was the only survinal, but he drifted to a uninhabited island. He bravely struggled, industriously worked and combated with barbarians. Robinson lived alone on the island for 28 years. He experienced many difficulties and dangers.
Robinson was a great person, he conquered countleand unimaginable hardships. If I stayed on a lonely island, I absolutely couldn’t vanquish dangers. I maybe would lose confidence for life. I respect Robinson very much, he is a real hero in my heart.
He lived on the island for about 30 years without any food, tool or habitation. He must depend by himself. Robinson wasn’t afraid of hardships, he had the fortitude spirit .He was brave in adventure and was good at labor. He used his head and hands to struggle all the time. I admire his courge very much, because these were not easy, work at all.
In fact, we also need the spirit of being undefeatalle indefatigable.
Like Robinson. If we believe in ourselves, never give up and do we best, we must be successful!
Robinson was a great miracle, he achieved mumerous. ‘impossible things’. ‘Robinson Crusoe’ was an immortal novel, because it gave us a courageous, intrepidity, diligent, indefatigable and wise ordinany person, a vanquish nature, a hero who exploited nature. The book is a really excellent adventuresome novel,
There is no perfect life in the world, but we can change our fate. If we have confidences and work hard, we absolute will be victorious, and the most important thing is ‘Never give up!
I saw a book in the bookstore a few days ago. The title of the book was that the little prince just saw this book and I loved it dee***. My mother saw that I liked it so much that I bought it.
The little prince was written by Anthony de Sanashbury in France. The little prince written by Anthony de Sanashbury was published in 1943. This story mainly talks about a little prince living on a distant planet. He lives together with the flowers. Love and tolerance undulate in his heart. So he left his planet with sadness and left his beloved rose.
The little prince traveled to a lot of planets, where the king of control, the self righteous drunkard, the mercenary businessman, the man who was loyal to his duty, the dogmatism of the geographers... The little prince is more sad. He doesn't understand what they are pursuing. Right? Vanity? Interests? Fossilized knowledge? At last, the little prince came to the earth. The little prince understood his love -- owning his own rose and having his own world.
In order to return to see the rose, the little prince abandoned his body and went back to his planet to protect his love -- rose.
I like this book very much. After reading this book, I know a lot about the truth of life, and I know that adults also do wrong things. So we must always keep this pure heart in the process of growing up, so that we can find what we are really looking for.
Jane Eyre, is a poor but aspiring, small in body but huge in soul, obscure but self-respecting girl. After we close the covers of the book, after having a long journey of the spirit, Jane Eyre, a marvelous figure, has left us so much to recall and to think:
We remember her goodness: for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes, for someone who despised her for her ordinariness, and even for someone who had hurt her dee*** in the past.
We remember her pursuit of justice. It’s like a companion with the goodness. But still, a virtuous person should promote the goodneon one side and must check the badneon the other side.
We remember her self-respect and the clear situation on equality. In her opinion, everyone is the same at the God’s feet. Though there are differences in status、in property and also in appearance, but all the human being are equal in personality.
We also remember her striving for life, her toughneand her confidence…
When we think of this girl, what she gave us was not a pretty face or a transcendent temperament that make us admire dee***, but a huge charm of her personality.
Her story makes us thinking about life and we learn much from her experience, at least, that is a fresh new recognition of the real beauty.
——《简爱》读后感英文版 (菁华5篇)
Today, I saw it in one breath. Because of the teacher's recommendation, Jane Eyre was written by Charlotte Bronte.
The hero of the text, Jane's parents, because of wind and cold, both left the world. After Jane Eyre has been followed her aunt, and a wicked cousin John Reed often called Jane, always beat her covered all over with cuts and bruises.
Think of me, mom and Dad took me as a pearl in the palm, I am afraid there is a collision point.
Later, the hateful aunt sent Jane to a charity school. Inside the food is very poor, very little quantity, the clothes are very thin.
From small to large, I did not once hungry, not once, clothing is bad, are brand-name. I'm really happy compared to Jane eyre.
Jane graduated from school, but she worked as a teacher for two years at work, but she felt that it had been so empty that she longed for a free and carefree life,. So Jane found another job, a tutor. Met Rochester, that is, she was tutor, Schonfeld's master.
The two fell in love, but when Jane was about to become a bride in Rochester, she knew that Rochester was married and that her wife was a woman maniac. Jane Aichen succumbed to blow away
Finally, Jane Eyre and Rochester finally together.
After reading the book. Jane Eyre for free life respected, her self-esteem, although beauty is not outstanding, but her heart is good is the most white. Of course, God does not live up to Jane eyre. It made Jane love a good love. With an unexpected fortune.
Once again, I am too insignificant. I'm selfish. I remember once, my favorite clothes are small, and my mother said I could give it to my sister, but I would never die. So far that dress is still at home! I'm really hateful. I regret it
This is a story about a special and unreserved woman who has been exposed to a hostile environment but continuously and fearlessly struggling for her ideal life. The story can be interpreted as a symbol of the independent spirit.
It seems to me that many readers' English reading experience starts with Jane Eyer. I am of no exception. As we refer to the movie “Jane Eyer”， it is not surprising to find some differences because of its being filmized and retold in a new way， but the spirit of the novel remains----to be an independent person， both physically and mentally.
Jane Eyer was a born resister， whose parents went off when she was very young， and her aunt，the only relative she had，treated her as badly as a ragtag. Since Jane's education in Lowwood Orphanage began， she didn't get what she had been expecting——sim* being regarded as a mon person， just the same as any other girl around. The suffers from being humiliated and devastated teach Jane to be persevering and prize dignity over anything else.As a reward of revolting the ruthless oppression， Jane got a chance to be a tutor in Thornfield Garden. There she made the acquaintance of lovely Adele and that garden's owner， Rochester， a man with warm heart despite a cold face outside. Jane expected to change the life from then on， but fate had decided otherwise: After Jane and Rochester fell in love with each other and got down to get marry， she unfortunately came to know in fact Rochester had got a legal wife， who seemed to be the shadow following Rochester and led to his moodiness all the time ----Rochester
was also a despairing person in need of salvation. Jane did want to give him a hand， however， she made up her mind to leave， because she didn't want to betray her own principles， because she was Jane Eyer. The film has finally got a symbolist end: Jane inherited a large number of legacies and finally returned. After finding Rochester's misfortune brought by his original mad wife， Jane chose to stay with him forever.
I don't know what others feel， but frankly speaking， I would rather regard the section that Jane began her teaching job in Thornfield as the film's end----especially when I heard Jane's words “Never in my life have I been awaken so happily.” For one thing， this ideal and brand-new beginning of life was what Jane had been imagining for long as a suffering person; for another， this should be what the audiences with my views hoped her to get. But the professional judgment of producing films reminded me to wait for a totally different result: There must be something wrong ing with the excellence----perhaps not only should another section be added to enrich the story， but also we may see from the next transition of Jane's life that “Life is like a box of chocolates， you never know what you would get.” （By Forrest Gump's mother， in the film “Forrest Gump”）
What's more， this film didn't end when Jane left Thornfield. For Jane Eyer herself，there should always be somewhere to realize her great ideal of being independent considering her fortitude， but for Rochester， how he can get salvation? The film gives the answer tentatively: Jane eventually got back to Rochester. In fact， when Jane met Rochester for the first time， she scared his horse and made his heel strained， to a certain extent， which meant Rochester would get retrieval because of Jane. We can consider Rochester's experiences as that of religion meaning. The fire by his frantic wife was the punishment for the cynicism early in his life. After it， Rochester got the mercy of the God and the love of the woman whom he loved. Here we can say: human nature and divinity get united perfectly in order to let such a story accord with the requirements of both two sides. The value of this film may be due to its efforts to explore a new way for the development of humanism under the faith of religion.
Life is ceaselessly changing， but our living principles remain. Firmly persisting for the rights of being independent gives us enough confidence and courage， which is like the beacon over the capriccioso sea of life. In the world of the film， we have found the stories of ourselves， which makes us so concerned about the fate of the dramatis personae.
In this era of rapid social and technological change leading to increasing life plexity and psychological displacement， both physical and mental effects on us call for a balance. We are likely to find ourselves bogged down in the Sargasso Sea of information overload and living unconsciousness. It's our spirit that makes the life meaningful.
Heart is the engine of body， brain is the resource of thought， and great films are the mirrors of life. Indubitably， “Jane Eyer” is one of them.
I first read "Jane Eyre" in eighth grade and have read it every few years since. It is one of my favorite novels, and so much more than a gothic romance to me, although that's how I probably would have defined it at age 13. I have always been struck, haunted in a way, by the characters - Jane and Mr. Rochester. They take on new depth every time I meet them...and their's is a love story for the ages.
Charlotte Bronte's first published novel, and her most noted work, is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story. Jane is plain, poor, alone and unprotected, but due to her fierce independence and strong will she grows and is able to defy society's expectations of her. This is definitely feminist literature, published in 1847, way before the beginning of any feminist movement. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the novel has had such a wide following since it first came on the market. It is also one of the first gothic romances published and defines the genre.
Jane Eyre, who is our narrator, was born into a poor family. Jane Eyre's parents died when she was a small child and the little girl was sent to live with her Uncle and Aunt Reed at Gateshead. Jane's Uncle truly cared for her and showed his affection openly, but Mrs. Reed seemed to hate the orphan, and neglected her while she pampered and spoiled her own children. This unfair treatment emphasized Jane's status as an unwanted outsider. She was often punished harshly. On one occasion her nasty cousin Jack picked a fight with her. Jane tried to defend herself and was locked in the terrifying "Red Room" as a result. Jane's Uncle Reed had died in this room a little while before, and Mrs. Reed knew how frightened she was of the chamber. Since Jane is the narrator, the reader is given a first-hand impression of the child's feelings, her heightened emotional state at being imprisoned. Indeed, she seems almost like an hysterical child, filled with terror and rage. She repeatedly calls her condition in life "unjust" and is filled with bitterness. Looking into the mirror Jane sees a distorted image of herself. She views her reflection and sees a "strange little figure," or "tiny phantom." Jane has not learned yet to subordinate her passions to her reason. Jane Eyre's passions still erupt unchecked. Jane Eyre's isolation in the Red Room is a presentiment of her later isolation from almost every society and community. This powerful, beautifully written scene never fails to move me.
Mrs. Reed decided to send Jane away to the Lowood School, a poor institution run by Mr. Brocklehurst, who believed that suffering made grand people. All the children there were neglected, except to receive harsh punishment when any mistake was made. At Lowood, Jane met Helen Burns, a young woman a little older than Jane, who guided her with vision, light and love for the rest of her life. Jane's need for love was so great. It really becomes obvious in this first friendship. Helen later died from fever, in Jane's arms. Jane Eyre's illness and death could have been avoided if more attention had been paid to the youths. Jane stayed at Lowood for ten years, eight as a student and two as a teacher. Tired and depressed by her surroundings, Jane applied for the position of governess and found employment at Thornfield. The mansion is owned by a gentleman named Edward Fairfax Rochester. Jane Eyre's job there was to teach his ward, an adorable little French girl, Adele. Over a long period the moody, inscrutable Rochester confides in Jane and she in him. The two form an unlikely friendship and eventually fall in love. Again, Jane's need for love comes to the fore, as does her passionate nature. She blooms. A dark, gothic figure, Rochester also has a heart filled with the hope of true love and future happiness with Jane. Ironically, he has brought all his misery, past and future, on himself.
All is not as it seems at Thornfield. There is a strange, ominous woman servant, Grace Poole, who lives and works in an attic room. She keeps to herself and is rarely seen. From the first, however, Jane has sensed bizarre happenings at night, when everyone is asleep .There are wild cries along with violent attempts on Rochester's life by a seemingly unknown person. Jane wonders why no one investigates Mrs. Poole. Then a strange man visits Thornfield and mysteriously disappears with Mr. Rochester. Late that night Jane is asked to sit with the man while the lord of the house seeks a doctor's help. The man has been seriously wounded and is weak from loss of blood. He leaves by coach, in a sorry state, first thing in the morning. Jane's questions are not answered directly. This visit will have dire consequences on all involved. An explosive secret revealed will destroy all the joyful plans that Jane and Rochester have made. Jane, once more will face poverty and isolation.
Charlotte Bronte's *e Jane Eyre, may not have been graced with beauty or money, but she had a spirit of fire and was filled with integrity and a sense of independence - character traits that never waned in spite of all the oppression she encountered in life. Ms. Bronte brings to the fore in "Jane Eyre" such issues as: the relations between men and women in the mid-19 century, women's equality, the treatment of children and of women, religious faith and hypocrisy (and the difference between the two), the realization of selfhood, and the nature of love and passion. This is a powerhouse of a novel filled with romance, mystery and passions. It is at once startlingly fresh and a portrait of the times. Ms. Bronte will make your heart beat faster, your pulse race and your eyes fill with tears.
This is a story about a special and unreserved woman who has been exposed to a hostile environment but continuously and fearlessly struggling for her ideal life. The story can be interpreted as a symbol of the independent spirit.

I have never been to Troy, but David Maule made me feel as if I were standing on the high wall of Troy, watching the fierce war. Thanks to this British author, who adapted the famous Homer’s poem into a lively story, I found it easier to understand this story. Though the story happened over 3000 years ago in a remote place, I was dee* fascinated by it. The mysterious plot is one of the reasons why I loved The Story of Troy so much, yet I am more interested in the human heroes of the war. Hector was the eldest son of king of Troy, Priam. He was not only a real hero of Trojan, but was regarded the highest moral hero in Greek classic by later historians. The war started because of the mischief of his brother, Paris, whom he didn’t appreciate. However, since Hector was the commander of the Trojan army, he was obliged to fight with all force. It was really a tragedy that such a valiant man died in the duel with another great warrior, Achilles. It is natural to see death in a war. As a famous Chinese parable says, “A life can be as slight as a piece of feather, or as weighty as Mount Tai.” Sometimes, one’s glory walks hand in hand with one’s doom. Achilles was such a typical person. His personal charm made The Story of Troy more attractive. He was so crucial because his every appearance in a war encouraged his fellow soldiers and terrified the enemies. Actually, Achilles was half-god who was almost invincible in people’s mind. That’s why his name was memorized long after his death. Besides the two great men, the wisdom of Odysseus also proved him to be a great hero. He didn’t want to attend the war because he was happily married and had a lovely son. However, since his country was allied to Mycenae, he had to take the command given by the king of Mycenae. I’m quite sure that the story of the wooden horse is widely known, however, few people know who thought of the brilliant idea, that’s why I admired Odysseus so much because he was the person who got the idea. Thanks to the horse, the ten-year war came to an end at last. If you want to know how the wooden horse worked, just read the book. The ancient Greeks believed that the gods and goddesses also played important roles in the origin, process and ending of the whole story. The story of the golden apple was such an example. When Eris, the goddess of argument and disagreement, threw out the golden apple to a wedding ceremony on Mount Olympus, a dis* happened. Hera, the queen of gods, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, were all involved in the argument for the apple. None of them was willing to give way, so they turned to Paris for a final judgment. Tempted by Aphrodite’s beauty and promise, Paris handed the apple to her. To keep her word, Aphrodite helped him to get Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world, as his wife. That was the cause of the war. Paris’s choice obviously annoyed the other two goddesses. So during the war, they helped the Greek alliance army while some other gods, such as Apollo and Aphrodite, guarded Troy. When Paris dueled with Helen’s former husband Menelaus, Aphrodite saved Paris when he was about to be finished off. After the duel between those two people, there was a truce between the Greek alliance and Troy. However, both Hera and Athena were not happy to see it. Hera pursued her husband ZEUS:“ Now, will you send Athena to make the Troyjans break the peace?”(Page 22) Then with Zeus’s permission, Athena went down to start the war again and finally she brought the Greeks to success. From the whole story, we can see that in ancient Greeks’ view, gods sometimes played a much more important role in their life. However, with the rapid development of science, we have learned that the Greek gods never existed. This is why a recent movie of Troy has not mentioned a single god. Everything happened due to men’s ambition, love, loyalty or jealousy. With those emotion and people’s effort, we human beings can accomplish wonders and be master of the world. God are of less importance than they used to be. Nonetheless, the gods and goddesses made The Story of Troy more mysterious and marvelous. I have learnt from the book more than the wonderful story of history, love and war. I believe that human can determine their destiny by their own. I highly recommend this book to my friends.
《Jane Eyre》 Written by Charlotte Bronte 《Jane Eyre》is the greatest love story ever told and is a literary work which has a long history . 《Jane Eyre》explains such an attitude: human beings’ value equals to self-esteem plus love. The author of 《Jane Eyre》――Charlotte Bronte and the author of 《Wuthering Heights》――Emily Jane Bronte are sisters. Although they lived under the same circumstances, they owned totally different characters. Charlotte Bronte is gentler than Emily Jane Bronte. She was so poor when she was young and she nearly could not feel her parents’ love, in addition that she was not attractive and was very short, so all of these reflected her self-humiliation. She had a strong sense of self-esteem, and she often compensated the self-humiliation of her self-esteem. She described Jane Eyre, in fact, she wrote herself. Jane Eyre was as common as Charlotte Bronte, and she kept going after a kind of free, bright and beautiful life because of her self-esteem. However, the two sisters passed away in their golden times. It seems the God who doesn’t like them that he punished them and destroyed them. What a pity! The main idea of《Jane Eyre》is to build a strong and independent woman according to describe a complicated love story between Jane Eyre and Mr Rochester. Jane Eyre was born in a poor family and she lost her parents in her early age. Therefore, she had to depend on others for a living. She bore her aunt’s abandon, her sister’s disgust as well as her brother’s insult. However, she did not despair, and she did not self-destruction. On the contrary, she stuck to struggle with everything and achieved the success at last. It is a power of love. Unfortunately, in her daily life of the school, she was often insulted and scolded by the Providers and always bore the physical and spiritual torments. But she did not give up but made a great progress. Finally, she obtained her teachers and classmates’ understanding. Shortly, Jane Eyre came across another difficulty that was she fell in love with Rochester. Her strong personality made her maintain the personal dignity. When she faced her rival in love Yinggelamug, she was not inferior to the aggressive girl. Similarly, in the face of Rochester, she never felt shameful owe to she is a family teacher. The other way round, she considered they were equal and should be respected by others. It is because of her integrity, noble, pure and soul without secular social pollution. Rochester was moved by her greatest respect and dee* in love with her. He was sincere, so she accepted him. Later, Jane Eyre found Rochester had a wife, so she decided to leave him without any hesitation. It shows her self-esteem again. At last, when Jane knew that Rochester was disabled and blind in order to rescue his wife, she returned to his embrace again. From this book, it can be reflected in the emergent shape of a female image in the industrial revolution era. Novel design a very bright end. Although Rochester ruined the estate, he became a disability, but we see that Jane Eyre was no longer in contradiction between self-esteem and love. She satisfied herself and Rochester in the end. From all the things, I believe nothing’s gonna change the love for everyone, it is mere confidence. Novel tells us that the best life is human beings’ dignity and love, the outcome of the novel arranged *e a perfect life. Although I feel that this conclusion is too perfect, even this in itself marked a shallow, but I still respect the author for such a good life ideals — is the dignity and love, after all, in today’s society, people often require money to pay the help. Choose between poor and rich is the main factor to choose whether love or not. Few will abandon the wealth because of love like Jane Eyre. So it is like a cup of ice that cleans up every reader’s mind, while causing readers, especially female readers’ resonance.

It’s an interesting and motivational story. Sometimes, we may not as good as others, but we still can achieve by our efforts and strong wills. As long as we do not give up our dreams, nothing is impossible.
The story was so well done.It's full of heart and of course set for the family.I enjoyed the atmosphere that they made for the movie.It was so ancient china and enjoyable.Each and every character had their own personality and Po was no exception.
Sorry parents and teenagers,there's no jokes directed to make us laugh.Their are cute moments that make you laugh but as stated for the kids.The thing that made me continue to watch was the amazing action sequences that just lets you sit back and stare in awe.
I recommend seeing this.It's cute,the story is entertaining,and you cheer for Po the whole time in his journey to become a Dragon Warrior.
The film was about a panda called A Bo into the story of a martial arts heroes from a kung fu master oogway: because ghost layman expected snow leopard Hashimoto will escape, snatch the dragon scroll, hurt people. Then with the raccoon master decided to choose the dragon warrior to inherit the dragon scroll, to defeat Tai lung. He was the master apprentice, know thousands of martial arts, always wanted to get the dragon scroll, but see his inner evil master, then refused. Later, taro becomes evil, all sorts of brutal killings and Pinggu lost peace, he attempted to snatch the dragon scroll, but oogway subdued. To the date of the election, is busy noodle Po, see this message, the selection of the Dragon Warrior at the mountain, but his father forced to let him carry noodles buffet up to sell noodles, it was fat, now no more than so much weight, it had to spend a longer time to the mountain.
About a simple and honest panda dream to become the dragon warrior, when the accident was chosen as the dragon warrior, we have shown a very surprised, including the master, the Furious Five, think this is impossible, but oogway did not consider it impossible things in the world, which he believes only ordinary panda can play dragon Warrior duties. When everyone looked down on the kung fu panda, he felt very sad. He was eager to learn the martial arts, but he did not take care of him. Until one day, the master apprentice before the most beloved of remnant leopard escaped from the heavily guarded prison, everyone is aware of the danger, the Furious Five effort also failed to defeat remnant leopard, then decided only by the master of Kung Fu Panda PK remnant leopard, so using the characteristics of Kung Fu Panda 2 taught him Kung Fu. When faced with the fierce and powerful remnant leopard, Kung Fu Panda always Xinruzhishui, finally defeated the remnant leopard, you change danger into safety.
I like the best part of the panda. Because they are playing, using some strange moves, finally the panda finally won the residual, save everyone's life. Seeing this movie, my feeling is that the panda wants to save friends and masters who laughed before, so volunteered to go out and fight against the disabled to save everyone, such a spirit is worth learning.

The Old Man And The Sea This is a great book, mind you. How I gave opinions to that is the spirits of Santiago greatly affected me. But the author, Earnest Hemingway said if his writing is really good, then the characters can also be many other things. Santiago is a common fisherman, and he hadnt had a fish for 84 days. And this time when he left he fished a big salmon by himself. He fought the fish for 3 days and nights and finally he kills it. He called it his brother. But he then had to fight the sharks and finally he gone home with a fish spine, and some fish bones. I could find his great spirits of never giving up. Particularly if he just loose the grip of the fishing poleand let the fish go, he wouldnt have any trouble, but he can stay to the end. Something I regret to tell you is that I didnt read this book very carefully, so I intend to tell you I want to read this book again and tell you what Ive gained through the second-time reading.
The Old Man and the Sea was written by an American writer named Ernest Hemingway. It has been translated into tens of languages, and the writer was so proud of his work.
Santiago, the hero of the story, had gone eighty-four days without taking a fish back. At first, a boy named Manolion had been with him, but Santiago couldn’t catch even one fish. The boy had gone at his parents’ orders in a lucky boat which caught three good fish the first week, and the couple thought that it was definitely and finally bad to let their boy stay with the old fisherman. On Santiago’s eighty-fifth day of fishing, he went out alone, leaving the smell of the land behind and rowing out into the clean early morning smell of ocean. To his surprise, he caught a tuna which he had never seen before and it was hard to believe that the tuna was bigger than his boat. Later, the blood from the tuna left a trail for all sharks as wide as a highway, so fighting against sharks was unavoidable. The result was that sharks ate up all the meat of the tuna and Santiago only brought the tuna skeleton back. He was so tired that he slept dee* as soon as he got home, dreaming of lions.
In this story, Santiago was an old and poor widow though he was good at fishing and had so much valuable experience. He only lived on fishing all his life. At long last, he just brought the skeleton back, you may think such a fisherman should be a loser, but this result didn’t mean failing. On the contrary, Hemingway used the skeleton which was the pillar of spirit to strengthen the meaning of the old man’s life. Santiago was described as a perfect person who never gave up.
The boy named Manolion appeared in the beginning and at the end. Even during Santiago’s voyage, he always came to the poor old man’s mind. He was the only person who cared Santiago sincerely, trust Santiago absolutely, and the young boy wanted to be an inheritor of Santiago’s career. Hemingway not only told us the experience of fishing should be spread from generation to generation, but also expected us to admire, to learn from and to carry on the spirit of Santiago. The appearance of Manilion was not by chance, which was arranged by Hemingway. During Santiago’s long voyage, how much he wished the boy could have been with him to drive his loneliness away. Youth is the symbol of energy and hope. Even an old man can be young inside. Lions appeared several times in Santiago’s dreams for they were living in his heart, which showed the spirit of Santiago would never be low.
The coming of the sharks could not be avoided. They can be thought as attack which can swallow your success and happiness. The story tells me to face the problems happened in my life with a heart as wide as ocean. Though the old man was lonely, he was a traveler who walked on the road of realizing his ideals. But he was not alone at the moment, for his will was so firm. The Old Man and the Sea has won the Nobel Prize at last, which is a comfort to the writer.
The old man and the sea "is a novel written by American writer Hemingway, an old fisherman named Santiago eighty-four consecutive days did not catch a fish, although he has grey-haired, but he refused to admit defeat, still full of fighting spirit. At his insistence, finally in eighty-fifth days caught a one thousand and five hundred pound fish, eighteen feet long, the fish pulled the old man boat into the sea to swim, in no water and no food, no tools and peer predicament, the old man is still in the fight with the big fish, two days later he finally killed the fish, but also attracted many sharks, although he waged a fierce battle with the sharks, but he managed to get the big fish eat shark, the old man had to go home with the rest of the fish bones.
After reading the novel, I was dee* moved by the old man, and some people may think that the old mans behavior is very stupid, in the "no harvest" days can still hold on. Moreover, the old man was fortunate enough to have a big fish after a fierce struggle and was eaten by sharks, and what the old man had done before seemed meaningless to them. But in my opinion, the old man is admirable. First of all, the old man was very patient, and for the long days he did not reap anything. Even if he was laughed at, he persisted. Finally, his perseverance came in, but he had to fight the big fish. In the process, he was the only one on the ship. From the spiritual point of view, he was lonely, and there was no food on the ship, and his body could not support him any longer. In the physical and mental torture, he still persevered, and this is what I admire most of him.
I feel the same about the old man. In junior high school, we have to reform the sports running, long-distance running, for no movement of the cells for me, it is a bolt from the blue. When I first started, I was far from perfect. For me, it is to get out of class to tell some fantastic tales, most students are an easy job to do. If in sports in this regard with others widen the gap, he may also be very sorry. So I decided to practice long-distance running, maybe I could sprint the full score on the day of the exam. So in addition to the provisions of the morning school every day after school every day I ran outside, to walk a few laps around the track and field.
Distance examination and more than a year, long distance is really very strenuous, every time run out in a sweat does not say, for my poor people, running really very hard, from the beginning of the second lap breathing difficulties, when there are half circle of people want to fall to the ground, but also to be speed run, sprinting throat like something off, as if next second there is something to be poured out. But I still insist on, and finally to the examination day, although I tried my best, but still a little bit out of full marks. Know the moment of achievement, tears involuntarily in the eyes of the rotation, in mind, before the efforts are in vain?. Now, Zhang Sijia feels that his efforts are not without progress. At least I have made great progress.
Maybe sometimes, in the eyes of others, you insist on things is meaningless, but not all things can be accomplished, there must be a long process, through the long process, even if not successful, but they also can get to it.

Gua Sha is a movie about the differences between American and Chinese culture. Xu datong is a video games designer in St. Louis. When his father visits from China, he performs Gua Sha（a Chinese traditional treatment）on his grandson, which leaves bright red marks on the skin and causes a lawsuit of child abuse. In the court, Datong loses his mind so that finally he loses custody of his son. I think this scene is shocking and thought-provoking to most of the Chinese audiences. But the most impressing scene to me is the ending. Datong wants to see his son in Christmas eve, he has to climb a pipe to the ninth floor which his son lives. I think the pipe is not only a pipe, but also a gap, a deep gap between American and 5000-year Chinese culture. He wants to climb over the gap and he will never succeed, perhaps no Chinese people really could succeed.
It’s about assimilation into American culture, and not assimilation in an ”International” city, like SF or NY or LA or Chicago, but St. Louis, MO（actually shot there）.Really great acting, interesting story.
Gua Sha is a treatment in traditional oriental medicine in which a wooden board repeatedly slides across the patient’s acupuncture acupressure massage points. It works in similar principles like that of acupuncture acupressure massage. This method would inevitably leave bruise on the skin, and the story begins here, when the visiting grandpa who does not speak any English used this traditional practice to treat the grandson when both son and daughter-in-law were at work.
Sadly, in US, this is a story that repeats itself many times in the area where many oriental immigrants lives and all of these are due to simple misunderstanding between cultures.Gua Sha: Step-by-Step, by Arya Nielsen.If an acupuncturist is trained in Classical Chinese medicine, they will do this technique in their practice for pain, and for acute or chronic illness.
Charlie from the "Rain Man" brings out the hospital until the beginning of "Rain Man" returned to the hospital is the film's central narrative paragraphs, occupy the entire film is 2 / 3 over. This progreis the procemore like road-mode, and this car is a big important paragraph of the props and bearing. The film also made a conscious decision to use other modes of transport instead of cars to complete the film "family" theme of the portrait. When Charlie prepared with "Rain Man" on the airplane, "Rain Man" showed extreme panic and anxiety, and enumerated in the previous periods crash. In no way Charlie circumstances had promised to "Rain Man" take automotive requirements. At this point, and directing were reached to extend the use of narrative time and space vehicles, and create a relatively broad narrative environment.
The whole car is the bearing of the incident, the theme is the cornerstone of good play. In the two-person trip to the middle of a "Rain Man" suddenly reminded of his underpants, he was required to return to the Charlie designated places to buy designated underpants. This has been a strange burn up his brother Charles at this time the dilemma. Abnormal helplehe angrily left the car, walked alone one person complained loudly, when he can look back again, my brother has not the car, but to sell his underpants that direction going. At that moment, the car empty, represented the brothers emotion and the way of thinking on the alienation and difficult to communicate, so俩人have left their places of spiritual exchange - automotive, suddenly created a separation empty art results. When Charlie and later, "Rain Man" won large amounts of money in the casino after playing and traveling together when Suzanne, the atmosphere is warm, because the narrow space in this car represents the soul of communication between the brothers, let them at the same time bathed in golden sunlight, the spring water fountain also like the ease of mind and a cheerful background music and exciting dance issued轻捷crisper, and drop people droplets sound. In these two areas, car apparently served as a "family" of communication sites, was a sharp contrast, and the plot laid a foundation for further development.
Apart from the car, also used in the film, such as the telephone, television, such as the product of modern science and technology to social reality of the state of some of the hidden side of refraction, and have a certain amount of social satire role. However, the greatest irony in the film, or for "Rain Man" Charlie irony.
"Rain Man" is suffering from "autism" a claof people is excluded from the normal world outside. The film "Rain Man" Raymund is typical. He has done things always behave properly all the things I asked Chen unchanged. He and others fear that exchanges and contacts, everything in the world is limited to the plane, dogmatic understanding of their behavior is the "otherness" in total disregard of the environment and the changes only according to its own subjective sense of action . And past performance of "non-normal" film, the film "Rain Man" Apart from congenital disability, but also has some "normal people" do not have some talent. In the movie, the director repeatedly demonstrated his interest and the unique digital extraordinary memory capacity, and intensified this individual acts, the leading clues, the entire narrative become an important motive exists. The film also uses its own characteristics that created a special effects comedy and drama tension. From a certain perspective, "Rain Man" films of this role is the focus of the entire drama. Tablets comedy links, the motives for contradictions in his possession were to be embodied. If Charles and Suzanne se-x, the unknown rational Raymund enter their room, and Suzanne and together up. This in his personal unconscious, without creating a logical act of endlejokes in the film. More importantly, his behavior aroused the discontent Charlie, but also for the further development of narrative and character level two opposing laid the foundation for mutual dissolution.
Impressions of the film Gua Sha
Some time ago, I watched a movie called Guasha. It is a movie about the differences between American and Chinese culture.
There’re a lot of conflicts in this movie, such as the criteria of abusing children, the using languages between the different generations, the ways of teaching children. Of course, the main one is Chinese traditional values and American ones. It is showed on three characters, Datong, his wife and Grandpa.
Datong is the central character that the director chose to express the theme. His words, his actions, his thoughtway, all represent the Chinese traditional values. His wife are very well educated and wants only Engllish spoken in her home. As an old Chinese, Grandpa can accept the American values partly, but not to follow.
Undoubtely, Iam feeling a lot from that movie. The most important is the Culture Shock.
Chinese immigrants struggle to hold onto their American dream after the husband's father（Xu Zhu）comes for a visit from mainland China and gives a si-mp-le Chinese Medicine therapy called Gua Sha to his grandson.
Da Tong（Tony Leung Ka Fai）is the father who is trying to integrate his Chinese cultural beliefs into his daily American reality, especially when dealing with his bo（Hollis Huston）and best friend, who is too quick to believe the worst about Da Tong's treatment of his son, Dennis. Da Tong's failures show his confusion about the differences between his original Chinese culture and his new American home. Even within his family there is conflict because Grandfather can't speak English and is excluded from many conversations because Mother（Wenli Jiang）wants only English spoken in her home for the benefit of her American born son. Da Tong and his wife are very well educated and understand that their child's best chances for succein America, and for him not to experience the same troubles they've had during the past 8 years, are to speak without an accent. They even go so far as to insist the boy use a fork and knife instead of chopsticks, even when it's obvious they are still eating Chinese style food, served in the normal way: communal dishes for the food and smaller, individual rice bowls for each person. Mother seems a bit inflexible in her insistence on being as American as possible, while Da Tong's cultural leanings are just as strongly Chinese, although not by conscious choice.
Da Tong's love for his son is tested severely when Da Tong tries to balance it against respect for his boss. When Da Tong's son hits his boss' son, Da Tong insists on an apology that seems
unnecessary and makes Da Tong look stubborn and uncaring. Da Tong gives his boy a light rap on the head when he refuses to apologize and the boy cries to his mother that the reason he hit his playmate was that the other boy called Da Tong stupid, one of many examples of doing the wrong thing to protect your family.
The conflict arising from doing the wrong thing out of love or respect for one's family or closest friends continues throughout the movie, and every way Da Tong turns, he finds failure and encounters both obvious and subtle forms of anti-Chinese racism.Even Chinese folklore about the Monkey King, Sun Wu Kong, that Da Tong incorporates into a video game he designed is used to provoke his pride when he's vulnerable and fearing for the loof his son. Da Tong is misunderstood by everyone, family, friend, and foe, even though he has only the best intentions, and he carries the responsibility quite heavily, ma-ki-ng one wrong turn after another.
Gua Sha (Motivational model yuedu.shows how a person's cultural beliefs are so dee*** set within oneself that it is usually impossible to examine why you do most anything, from how you dreand talk to whom you love and respect and how you show it. The invisible nature of one's cultural beliefs also makes it difficult to impossible to explain yourself to others when questioned. Da Tong experiences an excruciatingly painful and difficult struggle while trying to protect his son, an ordeal that forces him to examine the validity of some of the most vital things he thought he knew about his identity, his Chinese culture, and the new American world he'd chosen as his home.
The movie showed me how normal it is for people to look for ways that their culture is superior to others' and how the misunderstandings arising from different cultural perspectives can seem very large, but can be nullified with si-mp-le, 2-sided explanations when people are willing to listen.
It appears this film is not readily available in the USA, but it's the best I've seen at highlighting the differences between American and Chinese culture. Parts of the movie's dialog are only in Chinese and I've yet to find a DVD with English subtitles, although it's easy to get the gist of what's going on during those short passages. The credits are a combination of Chinese and English, holding true to the integration of both worlds. I've noticed some important roles are not credited here on IMDb, such as Judge Horowitz, who was played by Alexander Barton.
“Scrape” is indeed a good film for us to see. When I was seeing the film, I was touched by its wonderful plot. The film narrates that the main character named Xu Datong came to America 8 years ago and he realized his American Dream. He has a successful career and a happy family, everything is going well. But one day, he was told that his son was maltreated by himself. The truth is that his son Denis has a fever and a stomachache, but his grandfather can’t understand the English instructions on the medicine bottle. Therefore, he uses the traditional Chinese medicine therapy “Guasha” to cure his grandson, which becomes the evidence of the father’s abuse to his son. And the traditional Chinese therapy “Guasha” seems to be the tool that is used to maltreat children in the eyes of foreigners. In China, scrape is a very normal thing for people to accept, and why it becomes so complicated and difficult for foreigners to acknowledge the traditional Chinese therapy. Facing with the new explanation of traditional Chinese culture and moral standard by prosecution lawyer, Xu Datong loses his mind and is hard to calm down. The judge announces to exploit his right of guardianship over his son. And he is not allowed to meet his son and he is very angry at the time of the scene. When the defense lawyer of the opposite talks about the role named “Monkey King”, we can see that many foreigners are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture.
Analyzing from the aspect of Chinese and Western’s thoughts, the
western countries are controlling the world with their strong economic and military strength, and they try to centralize unify the western model of the civilized world. Therefore, they start to smear and debase other civilization pattern. The western society is never research extensive and profound Chinese culture seriously and they don’t know more about the Chinese culture. As a result, foreigners are unable to understand “Guasha” in the movie. As we all know, thoughts of western people are more open than us, but they can’t accept the thing without any scientific proof.
In the aspect of education, when the Chinese parents deal with the fight between two children, they will educate their own child firstly, while the western parents will respect the truth. So Xu Datong’s action to educate his son is seen as violence even abuse. The traditional Chinese notion is that parents give birth to their child and they have the right to educate them well, other people are with no right to interfere. However, parents are just legal guardian to their children in America, and they have no right to scold their kids and to say nothing of fight their children. Therefore, the Chinese notion of education is rather different from the western notion of education,
Legally, America is a legal system country, law exists in the every corner and every dispute can be solved by the way of law. They emphasize on the truth and evidence. Finally, Xu Datong was announced
to leave his son, according to law, the court’s adjudication is right. But many Chinese people are unable to accept it, which we can see the difference between China and America. We have to acknowledge that American people emphasize personal rights; they use law and social institutions to limit people’s action, especially to the protection of juveniles. They think everyone is equal and has their own rights. We can learn something good from American law.
In conclusion, cross-cultural communication may have some conflicts. In order to reach the agreement, we should learn to respect other different cultural customs in the process of cultural communicating. We need to have tolerant attitude, and eliminate national prejudice and adhere to the principle of equal culture.
