A Science and technology has developed in the twenty-first century. Many intelligent products are wisely used in all walks of life. For example, an intelligent robot. Many people praise the convenience that intelligent products bring to human beings. But human beings have also ignored their disadvantages. For example, these smart products make people forget to do housework. People will become lazy…… Think about it. One day, if the intelligent machine fails but human beings forget all the life skills that they need. After the Jade Emperor knows the risks immediately, he sent Sun Wukong the divine troops from Heaven to find solutions. The Jade Emperor felt that this was not a normal science and technology development. Who knows it is this suspicion that puts Sun Wukong’s pedestrians in an unprecedented danger? But it also reveals the conspiracy behind it. The case is entirely clear. Sun Wuking looked at the fastest plant in the production of intelligent machines. It was found that all of these factories were operated by an unidentified person known as ‘an adult’. What’s more amazing is that all the employees in the factory are robots. So the white dragon horse left to protect Yang Seng, and the other three went to explore. Once there, the robot guards began to attack three allowing to explanation. A few of Sun Wuknog’s attacks were blocked by all the attacks that were not valid for them. In the fight, Sun Wuking found that every robot had a power supply board. He made a stick, the robots fell to the ground in a moment, Sandy and Pigsy also learned that Sun Wukong’s methods. They easily defeated the robot. So they went all the way, and finally found ‘the adult’ camp. They found that ‘the adult’ was a robot, too. But it’s different from other robots. It is a highly intelligent robot with a variety of weapons. For example, electric saw, gun, shield……The three of Sun Wukong were very hard. Even if they find the power board, they don’t have to do it. When the three of them were all seriously, injured, the robots was proud to say that he wanted to dominate the world’s plan. When the Buddha came, he beat the robot down and pressed it into pieces. The robots were eliminated, and Sun Wukong and others saved the earth and saved the world. After the elimination of the robot, Avalokiteshvara incarnates an old lady to teach people life skills. Soon, people from all over the world have learned their life skills again. At the same time, they also realized that they should not be too dependent on intelligent machines. The whole world has been restored to its original pattern. Monk Tang mentoring fought with Nine Heads Lion A.D. & F.D. of Pok Oi Hospital Mrs Cheng Yam On School, Man, Hang Yan Mandy - 11 hen Monk Tang mentoring arrived to the country which is near the West, they took a rest under the tree and Monkey King went to take some peaches to Monk Tang. It made the Nine W Heads Lion want to eat them and called other lions to catch them. It said, ‘Monk Tang is a ten lives good people. We will be longevity if we eat a piece of meat from him.’ They ran on the tower and threw some grenade to them. But they weren’t resigned to playing second fiddle. Monk Tang took out his mobile phone to call his blood brothers to help him. Monkey King and Piggie used their gun to make them couldn’t throw any grenade to them. The Sha Monk took out his bow to shoot the arrow. The two sides have been fierce fighting and the atmosphere is very fierce. It sustained about three days and Monk Tang mentoring won. Then they used two months walked to the West. At last, they took the lection back to the capital of their country. My Wonders on the way to the West A.D. & F.D. of Pok Oi Hospital Mrs Cheng Yam On School, Tai, Ka Ming Victor - 11 oday, my Chinese teacher distributed a book ‘Journey To The West’. She asked me to do a book report with it. After I came home, I felt excited as I was about to read the book. However, I found T the book bring and dozed off after reading a few pages. When I woke up, I found myself in a strange place. There were no buildings or cars, only sand and cactus. I looked around and saw a monster which looked like a monkey. ‘Ahhhh!’ I cried and ran away. However, the monster chased after me. After a while, I felt tired and I thought, ‘This is it.’ But then, I saw the monster. I was frightened but I was too tired to run. ‘Hi there, little kid. I am Suen-Wo-Hong. Why are you here?’ I couldn’t speak a word. By the way, speaking of his name, I also remembered that I read this book in kindergarten. I became familiar with the story. ‘Ummm…Hi. I am Victor. I was in Hong Kong doing homework then I dozed off.’ ‘Hong Kong? Homework? I had never heard of it though.’ Suen-Wu- Hong said. I realized I was back to ancient China, the Tang dynasty. ‘Mmmm…where is Tang-Zhen? And Zhu-Ba-Jie?’ ‘Oh they’re just ever there. I spot you lying next to a rock so I came and checked what happened. We greeted each other and then we continued to escert Tang-Zhen, who was on his way to collect ideas for Buddhist. Then we met our first monster, Bai-Gu-Jing. She dressed up as an old lady but Suen-Wu- Hong fignred out and killed her. Tang-Zhen was furious. ‘How could you do that?’ But since I remembered the plot of the story, me and Suen-Wu-Hong convinced Tang-Zhen. I also told Tang-Zhen that Bai-Gu-Jing was still escaping. Together we put Bai-Gu-Jing into death after chasing him. By the time I realized that there’s a missing character, Sha-Zheng. Then I realized Shun-Wu-Hong also changed. I managed to tell Shun-Wu-Hong that Sha-Zhen was not here. However he told me he didn’t know. In the leg of our journey we met the second patch of monster-the seven Zhi-Zhu-Jing. However, with our efforts, we managed to kill these seven monster. Without anymore monsters, we got back on our track. We talked along the way without anymore abstacles or monsters. Eventually, we arrived at India where the story I knew, had ended. However, after I said goodbye to the group, I realized I was still stuck inside the story! I was panicked until I found out that the story was all a dream as I woke up in an instant. With the book report’s subject as ‘Rewrite the story,’ it makes my writing much more easier as I dreamed the story I should write. The Monkey King goes to the West A.D. & F.D. of Pok Oi Hospital Mrs Cheng Yam On School, Watanabe, Akira - 10 long time ago, the Monkey King went to the west by himself. He first went to find some weapons. Then he started going to the West.

  • A Global Dao: Diagnoses and Prescriptions for Artificial Reductive Binaries in the West and the East
    A Global Dao: Diagnoses and Prescriptions for Artificial Reductive Binaries in The West and The East by Aaron Amon Greene Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences, University of Washington, 2017 Associate of Arts, South Puget Sound Community College, 2015; Associate of Applied Sciences (Business Administration), S.P.S.C.C., 2015 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Humanities in the Simon Fraser University /Department of Humanities Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © [Aaron Amon Greene] 2020 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY [2020] Approval Name: Aaron Amon Greene Degree: Master of Arts Title: A Global Dao: Diagnoses and Prescriptions for Artificial Reductive Binaries in The West and The East Examining Committee: Chair: David Mirhady Professor Paul Crowe Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Luke Clossey Supervisor Associate Professor Stephen Duguid Internal Examiner Professor Emeritus Date Defended/Approved: August 21, 2020 ii Abstract The arbiters of the subject of Daoism have assumed authority to determine what does or does not merit inclusion through a few select means; either through a circumscribed scholastic lens or via cultural/religious authority typically predicated on established traditions. This thesis attempts to explain the ways in which both approaches tend to minimize relevant or qualifying contributions to a subject of Religious Studies such as Daoism. Deconstructing these reductive approaches requires first exploring them on their own terms, establishing how they narrow the aperture of consideration, and demonstrating their highly limited applicability in forming a more comprehensive understanding. Both the presuppositional tendencies of essentialism in Western academia and traditionalism in Eastern mores serve to create false binaries that can exclude many potential contributors to ongoing discourses.

    7 Transgenderism in Japanese Manga as Radical Translation The Journey to the West Goes to Japan Leo Tak-Hung Chan The subversive nature of manga is a fact widely acknowledged. Using "an expressive format that combines stylized and simplistic imagery with a laconic text," it can "lampoon, satirize, romanticize [and] reimagine the world in which people live" ( Allison 1996 : 56-57). But what if the targetof the parody is a text from another culture? A case in point involves the parodic manga versions of the Chinese classic The Journey to the West (Xiyouji; hereafter The Journey), representing a shift from a verbal to a visual medium and from a Chinese to a Japanese context. Not surprisingly, when such manga is translated back into Chinese, readers in China are offended to see their own cherished literary work tampered with, leading in 2007 to a critical attack on Japanese manga versions of a parodic nature ( Lin and Zhang 2008 : 168); official statements were issued concerning the need to curb the translation of such works in order to protect the health of Chinese culture. Much venom was directed not just at manga derived from The Journey, but on Japanese parodies in general. An article in the national newspaper Huanqiu shibao was subtitled "Why Does Japan Parodythe Classics of Other Countries?" Among the commentators (e.g., Zhu 2007 ; Lin and Zhang 2008 ), the point was stressed that a culture of egao, or 'malicious meddling,' originated in a Japanese concept that had spread to Mainland China via Taiwan and Hong Kong. There were also strongly

    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 3, No. 7, pp. 1243-1249, July 2013 © 2013 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland. doi:10.4304/tpls.3.7.1243-1249 A Comparison of the Themes of The Journey to the West and The Pilgrim’s Progress Yan Liu English Department, Zhenjiang Watercraft College, No.130 Taohuawu Road, Zhenjiang 212003, China Wenjun Li English Department, Zhenjiang Watercraft College, No.130 Taohuawu Road, Zhenjiang 212003, China Abstract—The Journey to the West, which tells the journey of four Buddhist monks who have overcome many hardships for the purpose of arriving in the West and asking for the Buddhist Scriptures, is one of the “four classics” of China. The Pilgrim’s Progress tells the difficult journey of Christian from the "City of Destruction", his hometown to the "Celestial City". Despite of the sameness of the two stories, that is, the strong religious atmosphere, there are still obvious differences between them. This article tries to compare the themes of the Journey to the West and the Pilgrim’s Progress. At the beginning, we will discuss the themes of the two novels. Then we will compare the differences of the themes and will discover that both of them have revealed the religious belief of “learn virtue and unlearn vice” and criticized the current society. But the aims of the journeys and the attitudes to the new rising class of the authors are of remarkable differences. The purpose of this article is to help the readers appreciate the two stories better, and to have better understanding of the reasons of such differences.
