review on joy luck club喜福会影评

The Joy Luck ClubMost films these days are easy to describe because they fit into types such as love stories or thrilliers. But The Joy Luck Club is different. It is a story about love and conflicts between four daughters and their mothers.The joy club club is a film based on the best selling novel by Amy Tan of the same name.It shows us the lives of four Chinese women who were new immigrants to Sanfrancisco during the 1950s. The four women acquaint themselves with each other by playing mahjong. They became closed friends because they had similar experiences and they called themselves the Joy Luck Club. As a mother, each of them has a lot of problems with their daughter.The film describes the relationship between the Joy Luck Club mothers and their daughters,and their cultural conflicts.It represents the process from misunderstandings, conflicts to understandings and harmony between mothers and their daughters.In this movie, the tender and complicated love betweenmothers and daughters certainly impressed and moved me a lot. Mother does not go to argue strongly on just grounds, argue with the daughter endlessly in the relation that the mother and daughter confront with each other, but adopt China's traditional forbearing and conciliatory method retreating in order to advance.It is one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. It combines the stories of mothers and daughters to tell one sincere story of friendship. It is one of the finest pieces of acting collaberations among an ensemble cast. It also combines foreign film with American film in a way giving it a new style. I like the set up of the movie or the sequence rather, better than the book. It seemed to make more sense. Many of the performances were powerful. Even those who only spoke the Chinese language in the film should have gotten awards for performances that made me laugh and cry.Frankly speaking ,the film is worth watching. I believe , you will think a lot and feel a lot after watching it.。

喜福会英文观后感喜福会英文观后感The first time I saw the title of the film, the Joy Luck Club, I thought that it would be a film filed with joy, luck and happiness. However, out of my expectation, in the film, I saw many unpleasant things—conflicts, hardship, disappointment, sorrow, hurt, torture etc. Of course there were some moving parts, and fortunately, it was a happy ending. Anyway, I enjoyed it very much. It made me have a penetrating thinking.The Joy Luck Club tells about the conflicts between Chinese immigrant mothers and their American-raised daughters and their struggling to understand each other. The film shows us these topics: the misunderstanding of love between the mothers and the daughters, the clash between the generations and cultures, and the struggle for the women to fight for equity. Now I am going to show you my understanding of them, emphasizing on the first topic.In many cases, we and those we love are easy to hurt each other because of the misunderstanding of love, the conflicts in generations and culture background, or unconsciousness.Take Jingmei and her mother Suyuan as an example. When Suyuan demands the little Jingmei to play piano, Jingmei shouts to her mother, “You can’t make me!” Even Jingmei cried that she wish she isn’t Suyuan’s daughter and Suyuan isn’t her mother, and that she wishes she were the dead like the babies Suyuan abandoned in China. The sad expression on Suyuan’s face indicates that she is hurt deeply by her daughter’s innocent words.This reminds me of my similar experience. Once I hurt my mother as Jingmei did. I didn’t mean to hurt her, but those wounding words just slip out of my mouth unconsciously. Often, we hate that why our parents don’t know my feelings, why they like to make us be something and totally unaware that what thei r children are. While the parents don’t know why all their sacrifices to the children can’t be paid off, even incite hatred. Actually, this is the generation gap that causes the misunderstanding. We don’t know the hardship our parents underwent before. The y can’t understand what we are thinking. So misunderstandings appear.Maybe as a child, Jingmei cannot comprehend what her remarks mean to Suyuan, and just want to show her grudge. But another main reason is the different backgrounds of Suyuan and Jingmei bare. Chinese parents always like to put all their hopes on the next generation for they are the generation full with hardship and pain. All they do just want the children to be better, but they ignore that whether their children can accept or not, nota long a child born in America, influenced by the American’s individual freedom and knowing little about Chinese culture. The generation gap and culture conflict cause the misunderstanding of the mother and the daughter.The other example is Waverly and her mother Lindo. Waverly tries her best to please Lindo in everything. Whether her mother approves or not becomes the master of all her choice. Even Waverly marries a Chinese man because Lindo likes Chinese, while she doesn’t love. Waverly doesn’t understan d why Lindo disapprove or criticize whatever she has done. On the other side, Lindo thinks that her daughter is ashamed of her, which is her continual internal injury after Waverly’s winning that chess contest, when Waverly shouted to Lindo if Lindo wanted to show off, won the chest by herself. Every time, Lindo’s disagreement with or indifference to Waverly directly results from the thought that Waverly feels it shameful to be her daughter. Both of them deeply love each other, but in the meantime, they hostile and hurt one another. This is the way them get along with each other. Fortunately, they clear up their misunderstandings and discover themselves by communicating.I am deeply moved by this scene:Waverly Jong says to Lindo, sobbing,, “You don't kn ow, you don't know the power you have over me. One word from you, one look, and I'm four years old again, crying myself to sleep, because nothing I do can ever, ever please you.” And after a short period of silence, Lindo smiles to Waverly with tears in he r eyes, “Now, you make me happy.” Then they laugh heartily, teary-eyed with happiness.Seeing the old Lindo bursts out laughing, like a child, and Waverly laughs joyfully, I sincerely feel delighted for them. Love needs communicating, understanding, and tolerance, which is what I learn from them.Along with above mentioned, the struggle for the women to fight for equity is also brought to the surface. For instance, Ying-ying encourages her daughter Lena to escape an unhappy marriage, not repeating the same mistakes she made in her first marriage. And An-mei tells her daughter Rose to learn to shout at the unfair fate, and express her own will because Rose has lost herself in her marriage. These two cases reveal that the women begin to release themselves from the restrains of being oppressed by the men and the old-fashioned thoughts as well as some Chinese traditional characters. Eventually, the women find their true value and win their own happiness.View from the whole film, the title, the Joy Luck Clu b may just be the old generation’s hope of better life for the next generation. On the whole, this is a movie made specifically for women. It is worth our appreciation.。

“joy”or “join”---- culture shock between the east and the westThe joy luck of club is the title of this novel. It is also held by Suyuan, Jingmei’s mother, to gather 4 families immigrated to America in 1949. What is the purpose of holding such a party each week? The answer is to be joyful as the name of party------ the joy luck club. 4 old ladies always play maijiang and tell funny stories in the party. Everyone here tries his or her best to pretend to be happy. However, deeply inside their hearts, all of them have their own sorrows.What makes them unhappy? Those pains are caused not only by their lives in old China but also by the misunderstanding of their own America-born daughters. So I think the name of the book is ironic.How come daughters do not understand their mothers? It is caused by culture shock between the east and the west.“3 obedience and 4 virtues”vs. Individual freedomIn Chinese tradition, wives must follow her own parents, husbands and parents-in-low. They are not allowed to have their own idea and have no right to choose their own life. If they do not obey the rules, they will be considered to be a bad woman. This point is shown in the first part of the book------- 4 mothers’sad lives in old China. Although they have escaped from China, they also have Chinese traditional characters.However, in America, children have equal rights with their parents. They can choose their own life in the way of they like. It is not difficult to understand why American-born daughters cannot like the way of their mothers educate them.Take Waverly for example. Lindo asks her daughter to play chess and take part in a contest. After winning the game, Lindo boasts her daughter’s prize to others. Waverly can not understand this way and even hate this. She wrangles with her mother. In her view, it is her own honor. And it is none business of her mother. She asks her mother that if she wants to show off, wins the game by herself.Mothers would like a daughter to obey their wills while daughters would like to be free and independent.Criticism Vs. EncouragementChinese parents express their love to children through criticism. On the contrary, the American people show affection through encouragement.For example, Suyuan always compares her daughter Jingmei with Waverly. She always puts out Jingmei’s bad points. These things make jingmei unhappy. She believes that her mother wants to control her and likes Waverly more than her. In order to show resistance to her mother, she decides not to play the piano that her mother tries her best to let her learn.Suyuan wants her daughter to became a swan, which represents her hope. She left fromChina for seeking a better way to live and finding a new lifestyle for women. She intent to let her daughter have been respected by others instead of being a Chinese traditional woman. However she fails. The failure is indicated at the beginning of the book. When su yuan arrived in America the immigration officials pulls her swan away from her, leaving the women fluttering her arms and with only one swan feather for a memory.It is a tragedy to Jingmei as she really has a talent for playing the piano. She does not realize it until her mother died. The treason for this tragedy is misunderstanding between 2 generations in different cultures.Chinese vs. EnglishThe linguistic barrier exists between each mother and their children. The children alsys complains their mothers’bad English mixed with Chinese words. They think their mothers are stupid while mothers think children know nothing. It shows that there is lack of communication between 2 generations.All of these show culture shock between the east and the west.At the end of the book, this situation is changed. Jingmei can understand her mother’s love; Lindo accepts Waverly’s husband who is a foreigner that she dislikes; Lena approves her value to her American husband after her mother’s advice…daughters starts to understand their mothers and the west can understand the east.Now I realize another meaning of the joy luck club. “Joy”stands for “join”It is a link between the 2 generations. In the party daughters and mothers have meals and communicate together. It is also the link between the east and the west. Mothers show Chinese dishes here and play Chinese traditional game---- maijiang. And all different colors friends gather here. It signs conciliatory of these 2 cultures.用一桌“三缺一”的麻将，牵出数个女子人生的悲欢离合，小说《喜福会》起首就不凡。

喜福会影评读后感英文版The movie "the Joy Luck Club" is adapted from a Chinese American writer Amy Tan's Theeponymous novel.It is about four for the Chinese the rivalries between mother and daughter, is a moving film.These women moved to the United States for decades, but they still think constantly of raised by traditional education, abide by the Chinese for thousands of years the penetration in the blood, women have become almost feudal patriarchal ideology nature. Their common ideal is to strict education, over his daughter, so they can escape their this generation of women's destiny, they become the eyes of a happy woman. However, the mother of the bundle, the girls in their different ways a revolt, in this race, class, gender inequality in American society, two generations of women staged a fight each other to reach the same goal by different routes, by mutual recognition of tragicomedy. In the tragedy and comedy, the deepest impression is not character mouth lay things, but they cannot speak, those unable to touch, carefully conceal mentioning things, is the silence behind something. Here, silence has become a symbol, its huge destructive power to destroy the existence of female self-esteem, self-confidence and courage, so that they are suppressed in the heavy loss of the ability to survive. However once the silence is broken, the destructive power will immediately disappear, have been suppressed for a long time will be the recovery of human nature, the relationship between balance and harmony will be restored. " The Joy Luck Club" in they and most of the tales are silent and breaking the silence on the main line of weaving togetherThe Joy Luck Club,"" to give our inspiration: in the United States, is one of the so-called multicultural, namely sub-culture and mainstream culture to maintain a consistent pattern, essentially just a trick to cover other's eyes and ears, and cultural assimilation and psychological aggression cover. Then, with the other minority women, Chinese women only to regain the original self, breaking the silence and gender culture of silence, in their own way to self-esteem, self-confidence, independent life, to enter the " joy and happiness".For example, mother of June and Waverly to force his daughter to learn they are not interested in things, and make a comparison in the dark and each other, about her daughter's achievements.And now the Chinese parents expectations at female chengfeng's abnormal psychology is completely consistent, they always hope that through their own daughter to achieve their own failure to achieve long-cherished wish, they don't care about her feelings and real needs, more cannot be in a calm mood to accept thedaughter's real original appearance.Also because of this,June and Waverly resulted in a strong reverse psychology, to the mother：“This is not China, you can’t make me!”“Why do you always have to use me to show off!?”The Joy Luck Club,"" to give our inspiration: in the United States, is one of the so-calledmulticultural, namely sub-culture and mainstream culture to maintain a consistent pattern, essentially just a trick to cover other's eyes and ears, and cultural assimilation and psychological aggression cover. Then, with the other minority women, Chinese women only to regain the original self, breaking the silence and gender culture of silence, in their own way to self-esteem, self-confidence, independent life, to enter the " joy and happiness".。

As far as I’m concerned,there are various themes in the movie,the theme about the relationship between mothers and daughters,the theme about cultural identity ,the theme about feminism an d so on,which make The Joy Luck Club more outstanding and significant .But now,I want to talk about the theme of silence.In the field of literary criticism,the study to the theme of silence in literary works becomes an increasing focus of feminist attention.And the movi e is also full of the theme of silence.Firstly,the silence of mothers before daughters.Mothers are b orn in China and grow up in China,deeply influenced by the Chinese traditional culture;while dau ghters are born in America and grow up in America,receiving tne native American education and culture.They advocate freedom and individualism and speak the native English.So without doubt. what mothers think and say are repelled by daughters.Finally,there are misunderstanding,conflict and many more things appearing between mothers and daughters,which leads to silence. Secondly,the silence of female in a patriarchal society.In such an unfair society,the men are at an absolute central position.What’s more,women are men’s private property,attached to men,domin ated by men,at the lowest position of society and family.Under the command of the old culture a nd thinking,mothers all become silent. Meanwhile,the movie also analyzes the theme of silence f rom the point of view of culture.Western culture is more open and independent,advocating indivi dualism.But traditional Chinese culture is introvert and conservative.When the two totally differe nt kinds of culture collide with each other,there will be a large number of quarrel,misunderstandi ng among people.In Joy Luck Club,there are conflicts between Chinese mothers and their daught ers’husbands,even between the daughters and their husbands.For American mainstream culture, Chinese culture has been put at an absolute silent position.Although there are various forms of silence in the movie,the mothers and daughters also try to br eak the silence.Mothers can finally approve their daughters’marriages and the daughters can fina lly gain their relative happy life.So personally speaking, The Joy Luck Club is a masterpiece which brings us sentiment and spiritual wealth.<<喜福会>>是一部关于女人的电影，是一部关于女人对幸福的追求的电影，是一部关于女人灵魂的自由的电影。

The joy luck clubThe film The Joy Luck Club is describes the conflicts between the Chinese immigrant mothers and their American-raised daughters.The joy luck club is held by Suyuan, Jingmei’s mother, to gather 4 families which immigrated to America in 1949. What is the purpose of holding such a party each week? The answer is to be joyful as the name of party------ the joy luck club. Everyone here tries his or her best to pretend to be happy. But what makes them unhappy? Those pains are caused not only by their lives in old China but also by the misunderstanding of their own America-born daughters. At the club, we can see many conflicts between the mothers and daughters. But why will these conflicts exist？It is all because of the different between Chinese and American culture.1.Chinese Vs. EnglishThe language is the biggest difference between China and the United States . Also, the linguistic barrier exists between each mother and their children . In the film, most language is English. But mothers are often speaks Chinese, too. The children always complains their mothers’ Chinese words, even in playing MaiJiang. Because they don’t know if their mothers are cheating. The language barrier caused the misunderstand between the mothers anddaughters . It shows that there is lack of communication between 2 generations in different culture.2. Criticism and Force Vs. Encouragement and IndependentChinese parents express their love to children through criticism and force. They always like to put theirs hopes on the next generation. On the contrary, the American people show affection through encouragement. And the kids are allowed to do the things they want. They also can choose their own life in the way of they like.For example, Suyuan always compares her daughter Jingmei with Waverly. She always puts out Jingmei’s bad points. Th ese things make jingmei unhappy . And she believes that her mother wants to control her and likes Waverly more than her. In order to show resistance to her mother, she decides not to play the piano that her mother tries her best to let her learn. And even shout out “You can’t make me!” But Suyuan just wants her daughter to became a swan and to be better. It’s a Chinese traditional concept. The generation gap and culture conflict cause the misunderstanding between the mother and daughter.3.Modesty Vs. ConfidenceModesty is a Chinese traditional virtue. Chinese always say what they do is not the best, they can do better. But American is confident. They believe that they can do everything well. In the film,Lindo cook for Waverly’s boyfriend, Rich. When she offer her special dish, she say“This dish not salty enough. No flavor. It's too bad to eat, but please.” Rich taste it and say“It’s not matter.” Then add soy sauce to the dish, say“It’s ok.” It’s Rich’s confidence. He believe he can make the dish delicious. But what he do shows that the dish is really bad. It make Lindo unhappy. After the dinner, Waverly tell Rich“That was our cue to eat some and proclaim it the best she'd ever ma de.” The different attitude to things make the misunderstanding of Lindo and Rich.However, at the end of the film,daughters all became understand of their mothers. It’s also means American culture became undershand Chinese culture. The joy luck club is a link between the two generations. In the party daughters and mothers have meals and communicate together. It is also the link between the east and the west. Mothers show Chinese dishes here and play Chinese traditional game---- maijiang. And all different colors friends gather here. It signs conciliatory of these 2 cultures.。

电影?喜福会?(The Joy Luck Club)以插叙的方式和细腻的手法将四对华裔母女的故事缓缓道出。

四位母亲，她们生长在中国，准确的说是生长在解放前的旧中国，而她们每一位的心中都深藏着一些不幸的遭遇和或多或少悲哀的回忆。

四个女儿，她们生长在美国，接受美国的教育和文化，竭力融入美国社会，她们一方面抗拒母亲的施加给她们的希冀，另一方面身上已经不可防止地带有了母亲潜移默化对她们的影响。

片头的独白说“老妇人记得多年前于上海，曾花费不菲买下一只天鹅。

旅途中，她告诉天鹅说，在美国我会有个像我的女儿，在那儿，她无需仰仗丈夫鼻息度日;没人会看低她，因为她将说得一口流利的英文;我要她成为一只比期望中还要好上一百倍的天鹅。

这羽毛虽不值钱，却是来自遥远的国度，一直载负着我的期盼。

〞这一根鹅毛承载的是母亲沉甸甸的期盼，她不希望发生在自己身上的悲剧重演，希望女儿不像她一样是只不起眼的鸭子被人驱赶，她希望女儿成为一只高贵的天鹅自由自在。

母亲希望女儿能承袭她的愿望和期盼，能过上母亲理想中的天鹅般的生活。

“她们忧心忡忡，虽然女儿们已经说得一口流利的英文，但却轻忽了她们来到美国的梦想。

〞女儿们在这一场文化冲突和交融中艰难地寻找属于自己的文化身份而不得。

同时这一场文化冲突和交融集中表现为四对母女在相处中的矛盾、误解以及沉默。

女儿们想竭力摆脱中国式的文化模式，但最终还是无法超越自己的文化之根，仍落入与母亲相似的命运中去了。

“我们宛如上楼梯，一步又一步，或上或下，永远重复着相同的命运。

〞所幸，最终母女们能坦诚地交流，女儿们理解了母亲们的苦心，母亲们也卸下了心中的担忧。

这一场跨文化的交流终于有了好的结果。

这是一部改编自华裔作家小说，由华裔导演执拍，由华裔演员主演的好莱坞电影。

因此整部戏处处可见跨文化交流、传播以及冲突中的真实细节。

首先是语言，影片以英语为主，母女间的对话也都是英语，主人公君还要求阿姨们不许讲中文以防她们打麻将作弊。

The Joy Luck ClubThe joy luck club describe four family which the mothers came from China when they are young and the daughter were born and grow up in America.Because of the difference of culture,the four family had a lot of conflicts between mothers and daughters.Chinese parents express their love to children through criticism and force.They always like to put theirs hopes on the next generation.On the contrary,the American people show affection through encouragement. And the kids are allowed to do the things they want.They also can choose their own life in the way of they like.For example,Suyuan always compares her daughter Jingmei with Waverly.She always puts out Jingmei’s bad points.These things make jingmei unhappy.And she believes that her mother wants to control her and likes Waverly morethan her. In order to show resistance to her mother, she decides not to play the piano that her mother tries insists to let her learn and she even shouts to her mother.But Suyuan just wants her daughter to became a swan and to be better.It’s a Chinese traditional concept. The generation gap and culture conflict cause the misunderstanding between the mother and daughter.Lindo Jong teaches the power of invisible strength to her daughter Waverly, instilling in her the skills that contribute to Waverly's talent in chess. She fears that in trying to give Waverly American opportunities,she may have undermined her daughter's Chinese identity;Lindo aslo fears that she herself may have become too assimilated.Waverly is the youngest of Lindo and Tin Jong's children. She has always been a model of success, winning chess tournaments as a child and eventually building a lucrative career as an attorney. Jing-mei has always felt a rivalry with her, somewhat imposed by their competitive mothers. Much of Waverly's talent in chess stemmed from her ability to hide her thoughts and channel invisible powers.Women's struggle reflected in the level of the family.To her daughter as a carrier, the result is the growth of the trauma that caused by her daughter, and it will not succeed.The purpose of education is too clear.Her own strong wish imposed daughter.The power is applied to another independent soul.It deprived of education independence soul, and can not achieve their purpose, but so had a deep gap between the mother and daughter in their hearts Education twisted malformed.Weak soul is the real weak. Looking back at his mother when facing social oppression system, in their wisdom they were fighting and successfully fled from there to find freedom for themselves, but the wounds in her heart caused by forced daughter can not find herself. Rose has won a prestigious boys school love family background, but she dropped out of school for one and all for her husband and family, all from her husband's request, until we lose this feeling, to divorce.Finally,In the mother's encouragement, she did not want her husband to tell her own true thoughts. Her awakening of self-consciousness help her husband found her again, finally they reconciled.Another aunt's daughter, and her husband had to be strict AA system life, and this life in dignity eroded her daughter, the mother thought of his life, was whoring slut husband curse, the kind of hurt that she accidentally drowned himself children, life-long unhealed wound, the mother told her daughter that you are worthy of being respected, and left him, and later found the treasure of her daughter who won happiness.As a result, four daughters have made detours, or unhappily married, or living without a purpose.They became "incomplete" people because their personality is incomplete, distorted, have been live for others, or mother, or her husband, but never thought according to their true will to live.Later mothers aware of this damage, due to the high expectations, or affect their personality crippled daughter, they held out his hand to the girls, to encourage them.This mother and daughter relationship, both opposition have harmony. In childhood, the high requirements of the daughters had hurt. Adulthood, the mother also use their own life experience, to untie her locks to help them know themselves, understand themselves, to build confidence. Female and ultimately no opposition, but to become partners, which is toget rid of the weak position of a recipe.Women should know how to self-esteem, the mother told the girls the truth. Self-esteem, but also to be loved and to love.If the "Aphasia" between mothers and daughters is more out differences between the two cultures and collision, then the girls in the face of strong Western cultural offensive show when embarrassment and confusion is reflected in the mainstream culture of "Others "marginalized. We see in the film, although no formal daughters of Chinese tradition, traditional morality, values, and the whole Chinese culture seem distant and diaphragm.However,due to the mother’s words and deeds,monasteries,these traditional or subtly influence their thinking.This is doubly cultural infiltration, with a dual cultural awareness, so when they solve the problem with the American way, the subconscious awareness of Chinese culture will be the role of dual identity is doomed to enable them to seek harmony between the two cultures.。

The Reading Report about The Joy Luck ClubReading the novel is not the first time of my knowing The Joy Luck Club . When I watched the film , the meaning of the title , the theme of the novel , the reason for the arrangement of stories from four mothers and their daughters and other important things were all unknown to me . But I knew that was my type for it is about feelings between mothers and daughters , and especially chinese speaking Eglish .Amy Tan , a Chinese American writer , is the author of the book in which she explors the mother-daughter relationships . Originally , the relationships between mother and daughter seem to be quite complex in a family but in Amy Tan's work , it is perfectly typical for its portrayal of conflicts between the traditional Chinese mothers speaking shabby English and the open wholly Americanized daughters who just wear a Chinese face but speak fluent English . I never think it is richly dramatical , and instead these kinds of conflicts , in fact , truly ecists in many Chinese immigrants' family . The novel is written impressively and deeply especially , I think , in understanding of mothers' love for their daughters for reasons that the previous experience of her with her mother provided the basis for her novel . It is said that the exprience of anthor is similar to that of Jingmei woo . Maybe , the novel implies the deep and complex feelings of auther for her mother and her closest relatives in China .It gives me a greatly deep impression that the book is begun with Feathers From a Thousand LI Away . It penetrates the mothers' hope and love for their daughters through a swan's feather . Through the old woman's words "In America I will have a daughter just like me. But over there nobody will say her worth is measured by the loudness of her husband's belch. Over there nobody will look down on her, because I will make her speak only perfect American English. And over there she will always be too full to swallow any sorrow! She will know my meaning, because I will give her this swan—a creature that became more than what was hoped for." and the mothers' former tragic sufferings , we will find that all the mothers are in hope of their daughters never suffering from their sufferings . And the mothers waited, year after year, for the day , they could tell their daughters it is their hope through a feather of the swan in perfect American English . At first , it is a little difficult to understand thereason for these words . However , through the whole novel , in fact , you will find the old woman represents the four mothers , the feather of swan embodies the hope of mothers for their daughters . These sentences show implicitly the feelings of author and her understandings for mothers . In fact , in the Joy Luck Club , the feather indeed is gained by Jingmei Woo . And from the beginning to the end ,the feather has been existing .Only if one high-quality novel , like a perfect verse , needs you spending much time reading once more , you will understand something . I thought that the novel is loosely plotted and is in disorder . But the fact verifies that I am wrong . Through the whole story , the novel begins with the death of Jingmei's mother and ends in Jingmei visiting China to see the twin-half sisters whom her mother had been forced to abandon when the Japanese attacked China many years ago . What's more , in detail , the stories of four mothers and four daughters have relative connections in theme about love between them and the mothers' hope for their daughters . And the theme shows the comflicts and harmonization between different cultures .Then I think why the author titled the novel " Joy Luck Club " . I am puzzled by it and the purpose of writer . The name of club made mention of by Jingmei's mother . And the author directly titling the novel the name of their meeting implies her feelings for her mother .I can guess that the title originated from a kind of hope or belief . According to mothers' former sufferings , they were not happy . Even at the present , all of them hides the previous tragic experiences . Maybe , the club is a place where they can pretend to be happy or avoid the past memory or worries or even the shock of culture .Reading the novel is as we are reading our life and then think our past , present and futere . Especially , the conflict between Waverly Jang and her mother impresses me most . Waverly is a woman who is quite independent-mined and intelligent , but her mother's constant criticism is terribly annoying . She once had a gift for international chess.however , when she realized her mother taking advantage of her achievement and talent to show off in public , especially to the strangers , she felt terribly ashamed and annoyed . She shouted to " you can not make me " . From then on , her mother felt cold at Waverly and were particularabout her favorite things . Infact , I think Waverly felt sacred subconsciously at letting her mother down and something that she did was aimed at flattering her mother . When waverly brought her boyfriend , Rich , to her families , her mother just smiled but she still was particular about Rich's appearance , having many spots on his face . Description about the conflicts of manners between Chinese tradition and American notions has given me a greatly deep impression and quite interesting . These words of " And then he had helped himself to big portions of the shrimp and snow peas , not realizing he should have taken only a polite spoonful, until everybody had had a morsel . " vividly express the American character of being casual which counts as discourtesy in China . The part of Rich criticizing her mother's cooking is quite funny and impressive . Our Chinese habit of making disparaging remarks seems to be extremely common . Being modest and avoiding showing off are parts of Chinese traditional manners . Her mother complaining about " This dish not salty enough , no flavor " , in fact , was a cue to eat some and proclaim it it the best she had ever made . But the Rich did not understand . From the following description of her mother being horrified , I judged that her mother was strongly objective against Rich and even their marriage . Waverly also had such an opinion . But I am wrong and from their conversation I understand something more important . Mother is the only one that understands their daughters or sons in the world.And none of the mothers do not love their children . And the heaty conversattion can make a strong bridge between the different generation or even the peonple from the different cultures . I find that if you would not like to tell your hearty words out , others are not able to know what you are and what you think . People each have different opinions about the same things . Waverly had thought that her mother disapproved of her marriage and hated her Rich . However , her mother's meaningful words surprised Waverly and even me . Just be particular about who I really care for and love. It occured to me that whoever we hurt is always who we really love for reasons that others would not care for our complaint . Yes , who will care for those who you do not love ? The answer is known by us fron the beginning to the end . It is the love for Waverly that her mother has been showing her . Waverly , a wholly Americanized girl , never trully knew her mother and was ignorant of the lovefor her . Indeed , the language and the culture did make a great difference in the exchange of feelings , which is a terribly high barrier between Waverly and her mother , also between other three mothers and their daughters . But love and understandings , finally will prevail over others .Personally , through the whole novel , the conflict between mothers and daughters , virtually , is that of the cultures between the East and the West . Mothers represent the classic, traditional Chinese culture but the daughters are the symbol of just , free , open and modern American one , which are two kinds of contradictory elements . However , through the whole novel , it is easier to find that finally they can understand each other and be in harmony . When Jing-Mei saw her twin-half sisters , she was surprised at this kind of familiarity . "And now I also see what part of me is Chinese. It is so obvious. It is my family. It is in our blood. After all these years, it can finally be let go. " shows that Jing-Mei understood her mother's stubbornness and love and was struck by mother's greatness . The resolution of the contradiction shows that the cultures of the East and the West can be in harmony with each other .《生命列车》The Train Of Life1.不久以前，我读了一本书。

“joy”or “join”---- culture shock between the east and the westThe joy luck of club is the title of this novel. It is also held by Suyuan, Jingmei’s mother, to gather 4 families immigrated to America in 1949. What is the purpose of holding such a party each week? The answer is to be joyful as the name of party------ the joy luck club. 4 old ladies always play maijiang and tell funny stories in the party. Everyone here tries his or her best to pretend to be happy. However, deeply inside their hearts, all of them have their own sorrows.What makes them unhappy? Those pains are caused not only by their lives in old China but also by the misunderstanding of their own America-born daughters. So I think the name of the book is ironic.How come daughters do not understand their mothers? It is caused by culture shock between the east and the west.“3 obedience and 4 virtues”vs. Individual freedomIn Chinese tradition, wives must follow her own parents, husbands and parents-in-low. They are not allowed to have their own idea and have no right to choose their own life. If they do not obey the rules, they will be considered to be a bad woman. This point is shown in the first part of the book------- 4 mothers’sad lives in old China. Although they have escaped from China, they also have Chinese traditional characters.However, in America, children have equal rights with their parents. They can choose their own life in the way of they like. It is not difficult to understand why American-born daughters cannot like the way of their mothers educate them.Take Waverly for example. Lindo asks her daughter to play chess and take part in a contest. After winning the game, Lindo boasts her daughter’s prize to others. Waverly can not understand this way and even hate this. She wrangles with her mother. In her view, it is her own honor. And it is none business of her mother. She asks her mother that if she wants to show off, wins the game by herself.Mothers would like a daughter to obey their wills while daughters would like to be free and independent.Criticism Vs. EncouragementChinese parents express their love to children through criticism. On the contrary, the American people show affection through encouragement.For example, Suyuan always compares her daughter Jingmei with Waverly. She always puts out Jingmei’s bad points. These things make jingmei unhappy. She believes that her mother wants to control her and likes Waverly more than her. In order to show resistance to her mother, she decides not to play the piano that her mother tries her best to let her learn.Suyuan wants her daughter to became a swan, which represents her hope. She left fromChina for seeking a better way to live and finding a new lifestyle for women. She intent to let her daughter have been respected by others instead of being a Chinese traditional woman. However she fails. The failure is indicated at the beginning of the book. When su yuan arrived in America the immigration officials pulls her swan away from her, leaving the women fluttering her arms and with only one swan feather for a memory.It is a tragedy to Jingmei as she really has a talent for playing the piano. She does not realize it until her mother died. The treason for this tragedy is misunderstanding between 2 generations in different cultures.Chinese vs. EnglishThe linguistic barrier exists between each mother and their children. The children alsys complains their mothers’bad English mixed with Chinese words. They think their mothers are stupid while mothers think children know nothing. It shows that there is lack of communication between 2 generations.All of these show culture shock between the east and the west.At the end of the book, this situation is changed. Jingmei can understand her mother’s love; Lindo accepts Waverly’s husband who is a foreigner that she dislikes; Lena approves her value to her American husband after her mother’s advice…daughters starts to understand their mothers and the west can understand the east.Now I realize another meaning of the joy luck club. “Joy”stands for “join”It is a link between the 2 generations. In the party daughters and mothers have meals and communicate together. It is also the link between the east and the west. Mothers show Chinese dishes here and play Chinese traditional game---- maijiang. And all different colors friends gather here. It signs conciliatory of these 2 cultures.用一桌“三缺一”的麻将，牵出数个女子人生的悲欢离合，小说《喜福会》起首就不凡。
