Chinese Cooking Introduction for my prof

   As everyone knows,  China  is a country with a long history, vast territory ,56nationalities ,and a large population.If  you ask me to say something about Chinese cooking culture,it is indeed a very difficult question.I'm afraid to say it for a whole night .Chinese food can be divided into eight categories as regional division, （Shandong cuisine, sichuan, guangdong, fujian, zhejiang, jiangsu  dish, hunan, cuisine）.Chinese food has five characteristics that are color, aroma, taste, meaning and form.There are variety kinds of Chinese cuisine's cooking method. Such as stir-frying,deep-frying,quick-frying,slippery-frying,,shallow-frying,braising,boiling,and dip-boiling. Only the cooking way of quick-frying can be divided into sauce-lot way, which means when you quick-fry something it will be put into a lot of sauce,oil-lot way . And also many dessert and many sugar-lot flavor cuisines. these cuisine's cooking method include wire drawing and honey sauce, in addition, the wire and honey all means different kinds' changing state of sugar when we use diverse way to cook it.My home is in the northeast of China . Because of cold climate, northern dishes are relatively oily,and the use of scallion, ginger, garlic  tends to be quite popular.Changing  falvour may be another main reason.On the table of my hometown,it's usually  divided into two parts,which are staple food and   cooked  food.Cooked food contains soup,wine or beer,hot dishes,and cold dishes.If  we eat in a restaurant,Chinese  like to eat the dishes while talking or having a drink, and eat the staple food later. the types of staple food have rice,dumplings,noodle, deep fried dough cake,and so on.Among them, the dumpling is the most special troditional food.Dumplings and fish must be eaten on the Chinese New year's Eve. we also eat them in life,because they are delicious.I will show you some pictures and video.I wish you can enjoy them.

a movie

At first，I want to say it is quite a  nice movie that it is worth watching，it let me see   a  terrible war and the emotion’s changes of a person who survived from the war.In the following essay,I will talk about something that leads people to suicide and how suicide is represented in media between this movie and the real life situation. "Brothers" tells a shocking story about two siblings ,elder brother Sam is a  military officer ,he has a beautiful wife named Grace and two naughty daughters,the other is his brother Tommy,he is just out of poison. In a military mission,Sam and his sodiers’  helicopter is shot down and they two are caught by some s.however Grace misunderstands he is dead,the whole family falls into sorrow and tears, facing the sudden news,Tommy decides to fill in the family to take care of the children and treats it as his responsibility,in the grief of losing Sam,they start the new life,at the beginning,they feel a little frightened and ashamed,but as the time goes by, the distant disappeared, conversely mutual attraction replaced it and had a good impression each other. in the control of the s,Sam suffered  from all kinds of pains of body and subjected to traumas that rob him of his humanity,he was threatened to kill his soldier by his hands,from then on,he lives in a world which is full of remorse and humiliation.However, when Sam unexpectedly returns to house, a nervous mood settles over the family. Sam becomes very withdrawn and strange,even grows suspicious of his brother and his wife.he wonders whether they have ever slept together.with the such a complex family relations and the heavy psychological pressure,Sam finally cannot bear any more  and arrived at the brink of collapse,so he sprouted the thoughts of suicide.In real life,many examples of suicide are caused by media’s pressure and public opinion,for example , former South Korea's  president Roh Moo-Hyun has died from a fall off a mountain.But to my surprise, more suicides is due to the description of the media in the wrong way.There was  a book named  The Sorrows of Young Werther ,which tells a   story about  the  leading character in a novel suicided after his courtship failure,however,after it  published, a lot of young people followed  the fiction to over their life,in the same way. Later, people use "In fact, a large number of cases and study proved the existence of werther effect,when I was in the junior high school,on the April fools’ day ,an amazing news spread in China,that is a famous Hong Kong singer Zhang(Leslie Cheung) droped from a tall building ,media reported this event without limit,as a result,in the next 9 hours there were 6 persons jumped off a building to suicide. The psychologist pointed out, Leslie cheung’s suicide strengthened the originally existing suicidal people ’desire. Therefore, when the media puts the adverse conditions and suicide together to relate , and  it means offering a detailed description of the situation, the  people with same situation will produce the very strong demonstration effect for its implementation suicide and provide motivation. In addition, The news media in order to attract eyeball , they lost the most basic principles of the news report,they should know what they can say and what they cannot say. The above is my view of suicide.there may be  many mistakes in this essay,sorry.thank you for ur reading.

Kung Fu Panda reviews

 

 

THE GENERAL IDEA:

The synopsis for Kung Fu Panda looks something like this: “A clumsy panda bear becomes an unlikely kung fu hero when a treacherous enemy spreads chaos throughout the countryside in this animated martial arts adventure featuring the voices of Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, and Jackie Chan.On the surface, Po (voice of Black) may look like just another portly panda bear, but beneath his fur he bears the mark of the chosen one.By day, Po works faithfully in his family's noodle shop, but by night he dreams of becoming a true master of the martial arts.Now an ancient prophecy has come to pass, and Po realizes that he is the only one who can save his people from certain destruction.With time running short and malevolent snow leopard Tai Lung (Ian McShane ) closing in, Furious Five legends Tigress (Jolie), Crane (David Cross ), Mantis (Seth Rogen), Viper (Lucy Liu), Monkey (Chan), and their wise sensei, Master Shifu (Hoffman), all draw on their vast knowledge of fighting skills in order to transform a lumbering panda bear into a lethal fighting machine.Now, if the noble Po can master the martial arts and somehow transform his greatest weaknesses into his greatest strengths, he will fulfill his destiny as the hero who saved his people during their darkest hour.”

MY REVIEW:

“The most important element” in any film will vary according to its genre.For a film like Kung Fu Panda clearly the most important element it needed to pull off was comedy. the movie succeeds quite well on this level.At first ,he title of the movie attracted me deeply because Kung Fu originated in China,but a panda is also a national treasure of China.In my opinion,it  may be built on the basis of Chinese cultural background.I am very intersted in a movie about my country.so I watched it carefully,Allover, Kung Fu Panda ends up being a funny (not outright hilarious), exciting, well animated and beautiful to look at movie that both kids and even adults will enjoy.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kung_Fu_Panda

The aphorisms creak.The plot's an open book.But all of those clichés are part of the joke in this ebullient ursine coming-of-age tale about a humble panda destined for greatness.
