问题     When you are preparing for your college adventures abroad, it is easy enough to make sure you get all the right form filled out, have your passport ready, your bags packed, and your text- books waiting for you at the other end. But how do you prepare for the adjustment to a new place? Especially, how to survive culture shock?
    If your language is not the main language spoken, make sure you take some classes in the local language before you go. Phrase books are all very well, but listening is the best way to learn. Audiotapes are a good alternative.
    Any travel agent can tell what the average rainfall will be and where the best tourist destinations are, but that does not help much. Ask around to find out if anyone you know has been there. Ask the travel agent for any less tourist-oriented information and check libraries and bookstores. Make sure you pack toiletries, medicines, and personal items before you leave. Sure, you can find a lot of things in the new country, but the brands and ingredients might be different and confusing, so go prepared. That will make it easier when you eventually do have to do some shopping.
    Take a phone card so you can phone home for the sound of a familiar voice. When you get on the plane, set your watch to the new time zone and try to place yourself in it. Drink plenty of water because flying dehydrates(使脱水)you. Stretch your legs and get some sleep.
    Make sure you know where your consulate office is in case of emergencies. If you don’t know, ask airport staff, university staff or use a phone book, but find it before you need it. Later on, remember, culture shock takes a while to get used to, so give yourself time. Even the most simple things are not always the same in another country. Buses are different, so get maps and timetables. Road rules are different, so use extra care. The currency is different, so familiarize yourself with the money. Habits are hard to break. To get the most out of your study abroad experience, find a happy medium between home and your new environment.
