问题     Culture shock might be called an【C1】______disease of people who have been suddenly【C2】______abroad. Like most ailments, it has its own【C3】______and cure.
    Culture shock is【C4】______by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and symbols of social intercourse. Those signs or cues include the thousand and one【C5】______in which we orient ourselves【C6】______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【C7】______purchases, when to accept and when to refuse invitations, when to take statement seriously and when【C8】______. These cues, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, customs, or norms, are【C9】______by all of us【C10】______the course of growing up and are【C11】______much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend【C12】______our peace of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness.
    Now when an individual【C13】______a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are removed. He or she is like a【C14】______【C15】______how broad-minded or full of goodwill you may be, a series of props have been knocked【C16】______under you, followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety. People react to the frustration in【C17】______the same way. First they【C18】______the environment which causes the discomfort. ""The ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad. "" When foreigners in a strange land get together to【C19】______about the host country and its people, you can be sure they are【C20】______from culture shock."
【C19】

选项 A、grunt
B、gruff
C、grouse
D、grout

答案C

解析 grouse意为“埋怨,发牢骚”,符合句意。其他三项均不合适:grunt意为“咕哝着说”;gruff是形容词,意为“(说话、态度等)粗暴的,生硬的”;grout意为“薄泥浆,水泥浆”。
