Recently,I enjoyed myself watching the movie "perfect stranger".
The storyline is like that:Rowena Price, one of those journalist for gossipy mags, or if you prefer to upmarket her profession, an investigating journalist who digs people's deepest and darkest secrets. A friend of hers is found murdered, but not before giving her leads that her potential murderer could be Harrison Hill, New York's top advertising executive.So Ro tried all means to get into his company and began the investigation.Add in a jealous assistant in Miles Haley , the plot get more and more twisted, with plenty of sexual innuendos and meanings between lines.
The interesting part of this movie is that in the end,the murderer is actually Rowena herself.Because in her childhood,her step-father was always sexual maltreat her.Her mother and she could not bear it anymore so they killed him and buried him.Unfortunately,all these were seen by Rowena's best friend and in the late years she used this thing to force Rowena to do everything for her.Rowena can not stand her anymore so she killed her friend.However,all these things is find out by Miles so Rowena decided to kill him just as she killed her friend.Unfortunately again,this seen is seen by her neighbor.It is clear what is waiting for Rowena.
I like the twisted plot and surprising ending .Apart from that ,I also learnt some lessons from it.First ,if you want nobody to know your bad secret,the best way is do not have any bad secret.In order to hide her bad secret,Rowena use more and more bad secret to hide her previous one.It is not a bit useful and those bad secrets lead her to death in the end. Second is,in every person's life,there must be something that makes you fearful.Sometimes it is a person,sometimes it is a object.Like Rowena,the things threatened her was her friend or be more accurate, her bad memory of the past.If one cannot get rid of these things,he will be controlled by them all his life time and that will be a very sad thing.So,if one fears about his bad memory,the solution is not trying to hide it I think,it is better for you to "bring it to the sun" and see it correctly.Only in this way will you be released and have a delightful life.
It is worthy to take time to enjoy the story and to get as much as lessons you can get.

Stalin and Mao Zedong
Q: Compare two well-known world leaders in terms of the emotional intelligence they demonstrate (d) .In particular, compare the ways they manage (d) change or adversity.
There were two famous communist party leaders: Joseph Stalin, general secretary of the Communist Party of USSR and Mao Zedong, chairman of PRC. They had encountered great changes to their nations: Nazi invasion in Russia and Japanese invasion in China and both of them were the leaders who led his people to manage the change. They all had a “steel” personality. In Russian, the word stalin actually means steel and Stalin once said: to be a communist, you should have a will of steel and a personality of crystal. So, when the Nazi power set up their foot to Russia, he showed Russian people his will of steel. He called his people to be confident and strong so that Russian people could not only drive Nazism out of Russia but also out of the world. The history showed us: he finally managed it with his great will. Chairman Mao shared the same “steel” will with Stalin. During the anti-Japanese war, Mao’s great will and spirit of never give up inspired thousands of Chinese warriors to protect their nation and after 8 years of hard times, he led Chinese people to the final success. Another similirity in their personality is both of them were over confident.They thought what they did were all correct but it turned out that during the post-war time, they both did something wrong to their nation. They both led some political revolutions to strengthen their ruling. One was the Political Revolution in Russia which killed a lot of innocent people. The other was the Culture Revolution in China which restricted a lot of people’s talents. The Political Revolution caused big unrest in Russia and the Culture Revolution slowed down China’s economic development for about ten or twenty years. Due to their strong but over confident emotional intelligence, the two great leaders both did something great and something wrong when they faced the changes in their nation.
