Kalvero Oberg describes four stages that people go through when they experience situations that are very different from those to which they are accustomed. Stage one is a honeymoon phase, during which the new experience is perceived to be interesting, picturesque, entertaining, and charming. You may notice several superficial differences such as music, food, and clothing, and the fresh appeal of the new experience keeps you feeling interested and positive.
When you stay in a new environment for a while, you move to stage two—the crisis stage—in which the shine wears off and day-to-day realities sink in. In a relationship, you notice annoying habits; in a new country, you find barriers to establishing connections or to learning the language beyond a few polite phrases. Suddenly, your new major includes a class or a professor you dislike. The difficulties and unpleasantness of reality replace the charming and picturesque "honeymoon". However, if you stick with the experience and try to deal with it realistically, you will probably move to the third phase of culture shock: recovery.
In recovery, you learn the systems, procedures, language, or nonverbal behaviors of the new environment so that you can cope with it on the basis of some mastery, competence, and comfort. After about two weeks in London, I began to feel familiar with traveling by "tube", paying in the correct currency, and using some phrases that are unique to English people. I had the advantage of speaking the same basic language and of sharing a great deal with the English in some broad, cultural aspects. In a country that was very different from my own, it would probably have taken me longer to move into the recovery phase.
Finally, the fourth, or adjustment, phase occurs when you feel that you function well and almost automatically in the new culture. You no longer need to make mental conversions of the country’s money and it is relatively easy for you to adjust to social customs. A greater enjoyment of the new experience is now possible, and you may regain some of the initial positive regard you had in the honeymoon stage. If you stay long enough on a visit from a big city to a small town, or, the other way round, you may become so well adapted to the new environment that when you return to your original home, you will again experience culture shock.
If a person returns to his home country after a long enough visit to a host country, he may
选项
A、obtain better abilities to adapt to a new environment.
B、regain some of the initial positive regard.
C、no longer live in small towns.
D、go through the four stages of cultural shock again.
答案
D
解析
如果一个人在国外呆了很长时间再回到自己的祖国,他可能[A]适应新环境的能力更强。[B]重新产生最初形成的一些积极看法。[C]不再住在小镇里。[D]再次体验一遍文化冲击的四个阶段。根据题干中的关键词long enough visit,可以发现解答此题的信息出现在最后一段的最后一句:你有可能完全适应了新的环境,当你回国后你甚至会再次受到文化冲击,这正是[D]的意思。[A]和[C]的内容文中并未提及;而[B]说的是适应阶段的特征,是所答非所问的干扰项。
