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.

然而必须指出，如果不加思考地一概而论，把家风说成是传统的家庭教育，说成是一家一族世代相传的道德准则和处世方法，则有失偏颇，不可不加以厘清。
实际上，家风就是家庭的风气，它是一个家庭的传统，是一个家庭的文化。如同一个人有气质、一个国家有性格一样，一个家庭在长期的历史过程中，也会形成自己独特的风习。这样一种看不见、摸不着的习气，以一种隐性的形态，存在于特定家庭的日常生活之中，家庭成员的一举手、一投足，无不体现出这样一种习性，这就是家风。所以，家风既是一个家庭或家族长时期历史汰选、传统沉淀的结果，又是一辈又一辈先人生活的结晶，对家中子弟具有熏陶影响、沾溉浸润的意义。
家风作为家庭的文化和传统，表现的是一个家庭的自我和特色，是一个中性的概念，并不必然具有正面的意义，用现今的话说，并不都具有正能量。有的家风可能是勤奋、俭朴、为人忠厚、待人有礼，也有的家风可能是狡诈刻薄、酗酒、忿戾凶横。一所学校、班级的风习我们称之为学风、班风，而学风、班风有好坏之分、高下之别，并不总是值得弘扬。家风同样也有不良的，也并不都是传家宝，即便是在传统社会，被视为传家久、继世长的也只有“耕读”“忠厚”“清廉”这样的一些美好的品质。
作为家庭的文化，家风是附丽于家庭而存在的，只要有家庭，就会有家风。家风并不会因为农村的城市化、大家族被小家庭所取代而丧失。极端地说，“没有家风亦一种家风”。在社会结构和家庭结构都发生了革命性变革的当今，人们感叹“家风”荡然无存，其实是指家庭所秉持的“忠厚传家，诗书继世”这样一些传统内容的沦落，而不是家风本身的消逝。
家风又不同于家规。家规是家庭中的规矩，是家人所必须遵守的规范或法度，是父祖长辈为后代子孙所制定的立身处世、居家治生的原则和教条，它是借助尊长的`权威，加之于子孙的又一重针对性强、目的明确的道德约束，有的甚至具有法律效力。它有家训、家诫、家规、家仪、家教、家法、家约、家矩、家则、家政、家制等名义，有敬祖宗、睦宗族、教子孙、慎婚嫁、务本业、励勤奋、尚节俭等具体而明确的条文，是载诸家谱、可供讽诵学习的有形文本。而家风有别于这样一个家庭世代相传的道德准则和处世方法，它是一个家庭的性格特征和精神气质。通俗地说，我们可以把家规看作是教化家人的教科书，而家风则是经由长期教化后的结果。同时，它一旦形成，也就成为教化的资源，并且具有“润物细无声”的意义。
