雅思阅读文章模拟练习：Culture Shock

　　随着近年来国际化的不断深入，Culture Shock成为了越来越明显的问题，基本上不是一个文化背景的人打交道的时候，大家多多少少都会遇到一些Culture Shock，只是程度的不同而已。那么究竟什么是Culture Shock，它又有什么特点呢?下面是雅思平为大家整理的详细内容。

　　Most people who move to a foreign country or culture may experience a period of time when they feel very homesick and have a lot of stress and difficulty functioning in the new culture. This feeling is often called culture shock and it is important to understand and learn how to cope with culture shock if you are to adapt successfully to your new homes culture.

　　First of all, its important to know that culture shock is normal. Everyone in a new situation will go through some form of culture shock, and the extent of which they do is determined by factors such as the difference between cultures, the degree to which someone is anxious to adapt to a new culture and the familiarity that person has to the new culture. If you go, for example, to a culture that is far different from your own, youre likely to experience culture shock more sharply than those who move to a new culture knowing the language and the behavioural norms of the new culture.

　　There are four general stages of cultural adjustment, and it is important that you are aware of these stages and can recognise which stage you are in and when so that you will understand why you feel the way you do and that any difficulties you are experience are temporary, a process you are going through rather than a constant situation.
