Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar signs and symbols of social intercourse. These signs include the thousand and one ways in which we orient ourselves to the situation of daily life: when to shake hands and what to say when we meet people, when and how to give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These signs, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, or customs, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend for our space of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these signs, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness.
Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar signs are removed. No matter how broadminded or full of good will you may be. a series of supports have been removed from you, followed by a feeling of frustration in much the same way. First they reject the environment which causes discomfort. "The ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad. "When foreigners in a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure that they are suffering from culture shock.
Another phrase of culture shock is regression. The home environment suddenly assumes a tremendous importance. To the foreigner, everything becomes unreasonably glorified. All the difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered. It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.
Culture shock is called an occupational disease mainly because ______.
A.like all other diseases it has its own signs and cure
B.only those who engage in culture work suffer from it
C.it is hard to get rid of
D.only those living in a strange culture may experience it
第5题

C.the sudden loss of our own signs and symbols
D.the discomfort that we feel when faced with a foreigner
