三、任务型阅读Culture shock isn’t a clinical term or medical condition. It’s simply a common way to describe the confusing and nervous feelings a person have after leaving a familiar culture to live in a new and different culture.
It’s natural to have difficulty adjusting to a new culture. People from other cultures may have grown up with values and beliefs that differ from yours. Because of these differences，the things they talk about，the ways they express themselves and the importance of various ideas may be very different from what you are used to. But the good news is that culture shock is temporary.
What causes culture shock?
To understand culture shock，it helps to understand what culture is. You may know that genes determine a big part of how you look and act. What you might not know is that your environment has a big effect on your appearance and behavior as well.
Your environment isn’t just the air you breathe and the food you eat，though；a big part of your environment is culture. Culture is made up of the common things that members of a community learn from family，friends，media，literature，and even strangers. These are the things that influence how you look，act，and communicate. Often, you don’t even know you are learning these things because they become second-nature to you－for instance, the way you shake hands with someone, the kind of things you find funny，or how you view religions.
The differences between cultures can make it very difficult to adjust to the new surroundings. When you go to a new place, such as a new country or even a new city，you often enter a culture that is different from the one you left. Sometimes your culture and the new culture are similar. Sometimes, they can be very different. What might be perfectly normal in one culture－for example, spending hours eating a meal with your family－might be unusual in a culture that values a more fastpaced lifestyle.
Culture 1.____________
Definition Culture shock is a kind of 2. __________people have when living in a new and different culture.
Culture shock results from the difficulty people have in 3.____________themselves to new surroundings.
Culture shock is 4.____________.
5.______ 6.____________largely determine your appearance and behavior.
•Culture，an important part of 7.__________,has an influence on the 8.__________people look，act and communicate.
The 9.____________between cultures contribute to the difficulty in getting used to new surroundings，as something 10.____________in one culture seems unusual in another.
