The children had desperately wanted to go to the circus. Every day after school they had gone down to the field behind the pub to see what was happening. First the men had put up tile big tent, and then moved in all the seats, and finally they had fixed the colored lights round the outside of the tent.
In another part of the field, the children watched as the animals were fed and exercised.
Sometimes, to their delight, two young women stood on the horses' backs and galloped round and round.
But the most exciting moment of all was when the trainer allowed them to watch him go into them lions' cage. The children were sure he would be attacked, but he came out again unhurt and smiling.
At last the opening night came round. Then the most terrible thing happened; their mother forbade them to go because she said it was unkind to put animals in a circus. The children were unable to make her change her mind, and they had to sit at home while the music and lights in the field reminded them of what they were missing.

I work in a small office from 9 till 5 Monday to Friday. Occasionally my boss asks me to come in on a Saturday morning as well. I don't earn a large salary and my job is rather dull, really. But I have a secret dream. My dream is to make a return flight to New York on Concorde. 1 know people say rude things about it. They say that it's noisy and expensive and that it uses too much fuel, and ...

A:
Culture Shock is the reaction of your mind and body to the change from a familiar environment to an unknown environment. In your own culture, you know all the ways a person behaves in different situations. In a foreign culture, you do not have any of this knowledge. You may feel lonely or homesick, helpless or irritable, and even feel you have no control over your life.
When dealing with culture shock, first you should remember that culture shock is a normal part of your adjustment to a foreign culture. Second, try to analyze the culture differences between your home country and your host country. Third, before going abroad, learn some social survival skills. Fourth, talk to some local friends about your feelings and specific situations, and they can help you understand ideas from their cultural point of view.
