24、My own experiment with culture shock came to a fruitless end when I returned with homesick from a year’s study in Italy. I had never heard of culture shock. All I knew was that I was unhappy and wanted to go home.

That was twenty years ago, and since then culture shock has become a real field of study. It is now understood that any normal person, finding himself or herself for an extended time in a new culture, is in trouble.

The process of “culture shock” is now considered so predictable that its four stages have been noticeable (显而易见的). The first is the honeymoon stage. In this stage, the new country and its people seem delightful. Everything is better than home. Everything is so different and charming. For people who never stay in one place long enough to find out what follows, culture shock is nothing at all.

Then the bloom comes off the rose. Now the people start to look shallow, selfish and stupid. The different ways of doing things don’t seem interesting any more. You start to feel tired all the time. Culture shock has set in. You feel at spa. The emotional response (反应) to culture shock in stage two can be extreme (极端的). Confusion, depression, worry and anger can all enter to varying degrees. You may become physically ill. Little things seem terribly annoying.

The happier resolution is to move on to stage three. Adjusting. Rather than listing what’s “wrong” with Americans, you remind yourself that “right” and “wrong” are not meaningful terms in cultural matters. Instead, you try to understand what motivates Americans, perhaps realizing that many of the things you don’t like are related to the things you do like.

As time goes on, you should be moving into stage four. Acceptance. At this point, you simply don’t think any more about the specialties of Americans. You accept them as individuals. You have started to feel at home; you know how to do things. You have not rejected your old culture; but the American ways have settled upon you. You feel optimistic about your future here. You have truly arrived.

【1】Why don’t people suffer from culture shock when they first arrive in a foreign country?

A．They love to travel.

B．They don’t stay in one place long enough.

C．The new county and its people are delightful.

D．Everything is so different and charming.

【2】The underlined sentence “Then the bloom comes off the rose” means ________.

A．Something good goes away

B．The rose blooms

C．Something good comes about

D．The rose comes up

【3】Which of the following statements will the writer agree with?

A．Any normal person facing a new culture will be in trouble.

B．Culture shock is now considered unpredictable.

C．There is no “sight” and “wrong” in terms of cultural matters.

D．When you reject your old culture, you can accept the new one.

【4】The passage is mainly about ________.

A．the study of culture shock

B．how to get rid of culture shock

C．the writer’s own experiment with culture shock

D．the four stages of culture shock and their features

Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.

Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life. ”

At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal (水晶).
