(2009年福建检测)"You're going to the United States to live? How wonderful ! You're really lucky!"

Does this sound familiar? Perhaps your family and friends said similar things to you when you left home. But does it seem true all the time? Is your life in this new country always wonderful and exciting? A great many facts show that it's not easy for newcomers to adjust to life in a new culture. They have to experience culture shock.

What causes culture shock? Maybe the weather is unpleasant. Perhaps the customs are different. Perhaps the public service systems such as the telephone，post office, or transportation are difficult to figure out and you make mistakes. The simplest things seem difficult. The language may be difficult. The food may seem strange to you. If you don't look similar to the natives, you may feel strange. You may feel as if everyone is watching you. In fact, you_are_always_watching_yourself.

Everyone experiences culture shock in some form or another. But culture shock comes as a surprise to most people. A lot of the time, the people with the worst culture shock are the people who never had any difficulties in their own countries. They were active and successful in their community (社区). They had hobbies or pastimes which they enjoyed. When they come to a new country, they do not have the same positions or hobbies as they already had in their countries. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. They have to build a new selfimage.

Culture shock produces a feeling of disorientation (晕头转向), which may be homesickness, imagined illness, or even paranoia (妄想症). When people feel the disorientation of culture shock, they sometimes feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the unfamiliar environment. They want to create an escape within their room to give themselves a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to familiarize the person more with the culture. Familiarity and experience are the longterm ways to settle the problem of culture shock.

【解题导语】　在人们看来，移居海外是件非常幸运的事情，然而由于气候、风俗、语言等方面的差异而造成的"culture shock"是件令人头痛的事情，文章向我们介绍了新移民们应该如何适应这些差异。

5. Who is the passage mainly for?

A. The family and friends of those who came to the US.

B. Those who have got rid of culture shock.

C. People who have just moved to a foreign country.

D. People who can easily adjust to their life in the US.

解析：选C。纵观全文可以看出，文章向我们介绍了来到异国他乡，应如何克服"culture shock"，适应新环境的问题，也就是说是写给那些刚移居国外的人的。

6. The underlined part"you are always watching yourself"(in Paragraph 3)means ________.

A. you are always feeling homesick

B. you are always worried too much about yourself

C. you are always looking at yourself in the mirror

D. you are always nervous about meeting other people

解析：选B。由上一句"You may feel as if everyone is watching you. "可以看出这种感觉是因为对自己过度担心而造成的。

A. They have trouble using public telephones.

B. Their positions or hobbies stay the same.

C. They are active and successful in the new community.

D. They have got used to the life in the new country.

A. A new identity.

B. Local food.

C. A new selfimage.

解析：选D。细节理解题。由倒数第一段中的"They want to protect themselves from the unfamiliar environment. They want to create an escape within their room to give themselves a sense of security. "可知答案。

9. The best way for the newcomers to overcome culture shock is ________.

A. to stay inside to protect themselves

B. to make a study of new hobbies

C. to adapt themselves to the new environment

D. to ask people for help when having difficulties

解析：选C。推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的"They have to build a new selfimage"及文章的最后一句话可以推出战胜"culture shock"的最好的办法就是：适应新环境，创造一个新的自我形象。
