Desert storm in mind.

Desert storm in mind.
In reading poetry, Desert Storm, I am really attracted to poetry. This expression of emotion through landscape, vivid performance of complex mental activities of the heart. Description of the details and records, people with personal experience, his mind will surface in a poem describing the scene. For example: Between the rows of block captain barracks the block captain galloped by. This kind of detailed description, highlighting the image of the entity to give readers the feeling of this immersive visual experience.
But behind the exaggerated expressions, people with imagination, such as: Hundreds of windows slammed shut. This exaggerated Desert Storm in order to highlight the enormous impact. Hyperbole here, just right before the description of details with contrast.
At here the word "This" means a state but not a thing or an entity. like the feeling of the desert strom for the immigrant. Like the impact from the local culture to the culture of thier own which they had it from their mother land. As migrants, their status of being despised, their culture has been contradictory, and their behavior was not understood, they are not respected by others, not social status. This is undoubtedly like a desert storm, dry, dirty, the rushing irresistible.
She use the line breaks in this way is working for the role of emphasized. As the people who want to express their most important views, they often will pause, that's mean the listeners or readers should focus what will happen in the next. it's make me remenber the It reminds me of the talk shows, the performers often had to pause in his speech, resulting in comic or the audience applauded.
This is not the spirit of the prison, but gave himself has put pressure on.imprisonment is mandatory, not resistance, where the author does not want to use the word, but even a good performance of the relocation of the subjective intention here. This sentence is the author's central theme and a combination of personal attitude. Like butterflies before the butterfly will go through a physical transformation, although this is painful, long, but there are subjective choice.Thus, the author's attitude is positive rather than negative, which is a kind of face the tribulations, instead of complaining, fear, hatred.

Rico:Follow your own course, and let people talk.

As an Asian American, Rico is undoubtedly very different but outstanding. Although in the author's eyes Rico maybe is the worst guy he was ever known, As Rico has a complex relationship with many girls, the pursuit of girls is his strength. No ambition, no goals in life, go with the flow. But I think everyone has the right to choose their own lifestyle except violate the law, their way of life does not necessarily need to be other people's recognition and understanding. Follow your own course, and let people talk.

At the beginning of the article, the authors describe the Rico is a “Player”, he was good at dancing and known how to seize the minds of girls, and be welcomed by the girls, these were out of our minds for Asian-Americans, why? Because in our minds: Asian-Americans should be very shy, low self-esteem, introverted, and there are barriers for others. However Rico is not only be accepted, even welcomed by the girls, I personally think that when the authors describe the details about how the Rico pursuits of girls, how the Rico dance, there are some Envy and jealousy in it.In the article the author was a more traditional people, get a good education and will be go to college, after graduated find a stable job, have a good income, without many love experience but get married with someone and have few children.

But everyone's values, lifestyles are different, There will be a number of objective factors that influence it. Such as family education, living environment, personal character. You can’t use your values to judge other people. It reminds me of one of my favorite song, I’m what I am, the lyrics inside is beautiful, I’m what I am, The different color of fireworks.

Some people pay their lives for the Truth, Some people die of poverty for Arts. Some people in order to survive were betraying their country. Everyone is different cause you can’t find anything are 100% same. The meaning of the life in my mind is when the moment you will be die, you look back whole your life without regrets.

Human nature has two sides like the light and dark. There is very Academy Award for best drama movie: Crash. There is a role in the film has proved this truth, A white police as some misunderstanding on daily life discriminate against blacks. In one time of no need check in for a black woman, He sexual harassment of the woman. But soon the black women has an accident , the white police rescued her. Just like the end of the Rico. Although he maybe a bad guy in his daily life but die for their country in the end. How could you say he is a bad people?

Follow your own course, and let people talk. You have the right to choose your own lifestyle.

Homebase

After reading the whole article, “Homebase”, The protagonist Rainsford's personality attracted me, what a Bright, strong child, it’s deeply moved my heart. The Article with a lot of different characters is a feature on writing techniques, but the plot twists and turns are the most attractive place. There are two stories were happened to him give me a profound memory. One is he unintentionally called his dad “Bobby” instead of “Daddy” and other one is about the “Death” on his parents.


Let’s talk a little bit about the easy and happy thing, he unintentionally called his dad “Bobby” instead of “Daddy”. The concept of transfer systems in Asia, the generational divide is very clear, if you direct call the name it’s very impolite to elders, like ask a lady her age. But perhaps he had grown up with Western education, this concept is not strong. In Asians mind, this kind of calling is a rude, uneducated behavior, but in here it’s very cute, this shows that Rainsford is not only thinking his father as the older, but more as a friend. He is definitely proud of his father. While he even call the people who he liked or admired person “Bobby” so that to express his missing for his father. Perhaps the only fatherly love is the most expect thing he was wanted to rely on.

This article touched me most places are definitely what happened to his childhood. The “Death” on his parents. I can’t image there is any other thing could be as sadly as losing the parents. Without parents’ care off the world will be bleak and sad all the time. What a brave, strong boy. When he faced such a disaster, he courageously lived. He is the extended life of his parents. Sometimes, there is no personal experience of pain so that can’t understand the pain of cruel, profoundly. This reminds me of the earthquake in China last year. Sichuan Province in China 7.8 earthquake occurred in more than 20 million people displaced. Although the Government has rushed to the rescue, but a sudden disaster, many families instantly disappear, with the number of people separated from their families. People see them on TV crying, confused, fear. But they can’t really feel these feeling, if you see someone crying in the TV you may feel sad, but some people crying in front of you, you may also shed tears with him, the more closer you touch them, you will feel more deeply emotion.

Rainsford is told “This is your Country. Go out and make yourself at home”.(Page 83). How brave and correct is this encourage. Like many immigrants, Rainsford felt lonely, discrimination, lack of confidence. But psychology suggests is very significant for people. Everyone has a place that was belong to him, find it and make yourself at home. The first generation of immigrants are always the most difficult, because they have to bear the pressure of life, culture shock, language barriers. The second generation is often the most contradictory, because they have to integrate the new culture, people’s accept, after that will be better.

Respones to 5 article

Strong gain respect but not imitate.
The article “American Born Chinese” written by Cene Luen Yang are constituted from three stories-the Monkey King (Chin-Kee), Jing Wang (Also Danny) and Wei Chen (Monkey King’s son).They try to integrate into the new environment and accept a new culture. But they were excluded and ridiculed by the new environment of people. Try to accept new things is a positive attitude, but when you be marginalized, do not be inferior, lonely, angry. But through some things to prove yourself to win the respext and acceptance by the new environment.As today's China, when China had just formed, has not been recognized by the world, or even pushed aside by the United States and Europe, but China through the strengthening of military technology, education and culture. Gained recognition in the world, from an invaded country, to the present world power.Everyone has the right to choose what  they want to be but his race can not be changed, Strong gain respect but not imitate.
Survive is victory
The story "Strangers from a different shore" written by Ronald Takaki are talking about the Chinese immigrants came to California because the 'gold mountain' story, but when they arrived , there are only forced isolation, racism, and violence, eonomic exploitation.The first is the tragic fate of migrants, they not only have to overcome language barriers, but also by cultural conflict, the exploitation of local people. However, they survived. Survive is victory, their children may be educated, their grandchildren may have the power, and their great-grandchildren may change these unfair treatment.Kind of like a seed into the soil without adequate sunshine, rain. But they survived, they germinate, take root and grow. Eventually become a tree. This is the life of the transmission.
The life of the transmission

After i reading the article" China Man" by Maxine Hong Kingston I have every reason to believe that this is definitely an article worth reading again. it's talking about the male relatives and covers four generations.Articles by the time the main line, describing the narrative of the immigrant life.Chinese workers as they fight against the unfair treatment of local plays an important role.Appears to be the fate of a family, in fact, it's the fate of a generation, they are the microcosm of  chinese workers live in  the United States.Their interpretation of the tenacious of life, on the fate of the confrontation, and the continuation of love.

The topic of race is eternal
After reading the article "1882 Chinese Exclusion Act", I live in an era of relative peace was lucky,Article about the early California government workers do not want to exclude Chinese immigrants, because they provide essential revenue which helps to fill the financial gap in California, but when they have money, they began to squeeze the Chinese labor.Chinese workers are mostly men, stay alone in the USA or returned to china is the big dilemma for chineses labors.Cruel capitalist exploitation of cheap labor, it is sad and unfortunate time. Backwardness will be invaded.The topic of race is eternal.

Exploitation and discrimination

After reading the article "Angel Island Poems" I feel very sad and dreary,Exploitation and discrimination
is that time, the synonym for Chinese workers.Since anti-bills, the Chinese workers in the United States by the unfair treatment, detention, discrimination, abuse. Labour was anxious, nervous, scared. This is unfortunate nation, respect is not obtained by begging, but by great strength. Now the Chinese people, may not be the year of discrimination, but when those great Chinese people work in the United States has caused American citizens rise in unemployment, this alien race discrimination, bias will re-appear

Background of Me

My name is Zheng Xu. I am an international student from China. I ultimately came to the United States to study business and to pursue a position in the professional business area.


I have a goal to be a successful businessman; I will study, practice, and strive to achieve it. I believe that I am created to be in business. I am an outgoing person and I enjoy interacting with others. I love smiling because smiles give me confidence and ease the pressure. Whenever I smile to others, they will smile to me. We both feel happy and harmonious. As the reason for my disposition, I prefer to cooperate with people instead of working alone. Cooperation is fun not only in the final outcome, but also is learning from each other and making new friends. I believe that two heads are better than one. Just as the emergence of a global village, advanced communications make people more closely related, Teamwork greatly improves efficiency and results. I not only participate in organizations, but also I try to be the executive leader in the organizations. Leadership is not the powerful symbol, but a symbol of responsibility.

I also have my strengths. I had an internship in China Petroleum Finance Co. Ltd. International Trade last summer. I have my own Chinese stock account from two years ago and average yield rate is 23.7%. I’m an excellent entrepreneur. I created a website forum called 2nd home(http://2ndhome.xclub.cn/home.asp), It’s mainly for Chinese university students studying in the United States, Like a Chinese student alliance, currently has four universities already join our Organization (Miami University, Ohio State University, University of Michigan，University of Pittsburgh). There are more than 20 Miami students in my working group including the CSSFA incumbent president and last president. Since I am a international student from China, I found more and more Chinese young people come to the United States to complete their college career. The group of international students will be a unique and valuable customer base, they have more spending power and potential price. Web sites through advertising, agency company (tickets, travel, student training) to make revenue. We will give most of these revenue back to the partner organization as allowance.

Collision and Counterweight

After reading the “Who’s Irish” by Gish Jen i was I certainly was attracted to the story, especially the role which her grandmother, it's reminds me of my grandmother and my childhood. I am a student from China, when I read the whole article, I have every reason to believe that such thinking appears in the grandmother who is the real and full of charm.
Perhaps from the Western point of view, The grandmother is full of harsh, overbearing. She looked down idle son, and humiliate his family, speak English and physical health, but does not work support the family, and even scoff at their diet to express discrimination.But as a concept has a traditional Chinese woman, she definitely is a character of perseverance and selfless woman.
In the article inside, the collision between granddaughter with her grandmother, full of realism and humor. This appears to be a collision between two people, in fact that's the Counterweight to the cultural and age differences.Little granddaughter is very stubborn personality, she likes to undress in the outside, but it is intolerable in the eyes of Grandma, Grandma does not give food and other means to threaten small granddaughter no effect, in the end her use violence form that on the granddaughter never undress.In Irish eyes, maybe they never thought of beating the child, but in China, beat the children when they was young kids are very common, physical pain is more persuasive than the language.However, when the granddaughter was asleep in the park, Grandma worries frightened. She loved her granddaughter, but there are differences of expression.In the confrontation between granddaughter and grandmother, there is no winner, because Grandma is with traditional Chinese philosophy and educational approach to the granddaughter who was growing up in the environment of Ireland.This is the transfer of love, renewal.

She can live alone with a telephone,She did not even know how to speak English  but through her own  restaurant to live in Ireland. more than that she was helping her daughter to watching her grannddaughter. we can understand she was an Independent woman.
