2019屆高考英語基礎(chǔ)鞏固復(fù)習(xí)名師點津教案
everyone experiences culture shock in some form or another. but culture shock comes as a surprise to most people. a lot of the time, the people with the worst culture shock are the people who never had any difficulties in their own countries. they were active and successful in their community (社區(qū)). they had hobbies or pastimes which they enjoyed. when they come to a new country, they do not have the same positions or hobbies as they already had in their countries. they find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. they have to build a new selfimage.
culture shock produces a feeling of disorientation (暈頭轉(zhuǎn)向), which may be homesickness, imagined illness, or even paranoia (妄想癥). when people feel the disorientation of culture shock, they sometimes feel like staying inside all the time. they want to protect themselves from the unfamiliar environment. they want to create an escape within their room to give themselves a sense of security. this escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to familiarize the person more with the culture. familiarity and experience are the longterm ways to settle the problem of culture shock.
