(2012·合肥市第一次质量检测)
Most people who move to a foreign country or culture may go through some form of culture shock,and its degree is determined by the differences between cultures,the anxiety to adapt to a new culture and the familiarity with a new culture,etc.If you go,for example,to a culture that is far different from your own,you’re likely to experience culture shock more sharply than those who move to a new culture knowing the language and the custom of it.
It is important to understand and learn how to deal with culture shock if you are to adapt successfully to your new home’s cultures.There are four general stages of cultural adjustment,and being aware of them helps you understand that culture shock won’t last long.It’s just a process you are going through rather than a constant situation.
The first stage is usually referred to as “the honeymoon stage”.Upon arriving in a new environment,you’ll be interested in the new culture.Everything will seem thrilling and everyone will seem friendly and helpful.During this stage you are merely taking in these impressions passively.
But it isn’t long before the honeymoon stage gives way to the second stage—“the withdrawal stage”.The excitement you felt before is gone and problems arise.The language is hard to learn,people are unusual and unpredictable,friends,are hard to make,and simple things like shopping and going to the bank are challenges.It is at this stage that you are likely to feel anxious and homesick,and you will probably find yourself complaining about the new culture or country.This is the stage called “culture shock”.
At some point,if you can manage it well,you’ll begin the transition into the next stage,“the recovery stage”,in which you’ll feel more confident functioning in the new culture.Customs and traditions are clearer and easier to understand.At this stage,you’ll deal with new challenges with humor rather than anxiety.
1.According to the passage,culture shock can be________.
A.dealt with more easily for some people
B.reduced by learning the language alone
C.avoided by knowing adjustment stages
D.got rid of by learning just the custom
2.“The honeymoon stage” here refers to________.
A.the first month after the wedding
B.the period of excitement
C.the stage of adaptation
D.the holiday for a newlymarried couple
3.Which of the following doesn’t belong to the second stage?
A.Becoming upset.
B.Missing family.
C.Feeling confident.
D.Making complaints.
4.What would be probably discussed in the following paragraph?
A.Consequences of culture shock.
B.Challenges in a new country.
C.Preparations for a new culture.
D.The 4th stage of cultural adjustment.

(2012·太原模考)
Bali is an Indonesian island that is rich in indigenous (本土的) culture.A lot of people say that the Balinese culture is unique and that the people of Bali have always been contented with the “now”.If you ask a Balinese person what heaven is like,the probable answer will be “just like Bali”.This only goes to show that most Balinese people are happy to be where they are and never worry.
One factor that contributes to this laidback lifestyle is the culture of close family ties in Bali.In the Balinese culture,support is always available.Balinese extended families are so tightly knit that all members usually reside in the same complex.
Hinduism is one of the
main religions in Bali.The Balinese culture is based on a form of this religion,which is called “Hindu Dharma”.This religion reached the island during the eleventh century.Most of the family customs and traditions as well as community lifestyles of the Balinese people are influenced by this.The religious influence even expands widely into the arts,which makes Bali distinct from the rest of Indonesia.
In spite of the fact that tourists flood to the island every year,the Balinese people have managed to conserve their culture.Almost every native of Bali is an artist in some form or another.Parents and villagers have passed on their skills to their children,who all seem to have inclinations (意向) either to music,dance,painting,or decor.
Another remarkable mark of the Balinese culture is the
series of ceremonies and rituals known as the Manusa Yadnya.This marks the different stages of Balinese life.Cremation (火葬) is very popular on this island,and unlike in the West,death is a joyous and colorful event for the Balinese.
5.What do we know about the Balinese according to the first two paragraphs?
A.They lead a very relaxing but unwealthy life.
B.They live in large families and are close to each other.
C.Their family members are distributed in different places.
D.Their extended families live too close together to get along well.
6.Bali is distinguished from the rest of Indonesia by________.
A.people’s tight family relationship
B.the family customs and traditions
C.people’s great affection for religion
D.the influence of Hinduism on their culture
7.The underlined word “conserve” in Para.4 can be best replaced by
“________”.
A.preserve
B.spread
C.form
D.expand
8.When a person dies in Bali,it is common practice to________.
A.express deep sorrow at his death
B.celebrate the death like a great event
C.sing and dance joyfully in his honor
D.remember what he did in his lifetime
9.What is the text mainly about?
A.The Balinese religion.
B.The lifestyle of the Balinese.
C.The Blinese culture.
D.The tourism in Bali.
