听力原文: Culture Shock Good morning, everyone. In today’s lecture, I’d
like to talk about culture shock. Perhaps you think that studying in a different country
is something that sounds very exciting. It is a new experience, which brings the
opportunity of discovering fascinating things and a feeling of freedom. In spite of
these advantages, however, there are also some challenges you will encounter. You
may have difficulty adjusting to a new culture and to those parts of the culture not
familiar to you. This is culture shock. To be exact, culture shock is the anxiety
and feelings of surprise, disorientation, uncertainty, confusion, etc. felt when people
have to operate within a different and unknown culture such as one may encounter in
a foreign country. It grows out of the difficulties in assimilating the new culture,
causing difficulty in knowing what is appropriate and what is not. This is often
combined with a dislike for or even disgust with certain aspects of the new or
different culture. The shock often consists of four distinct stages, though not everyone
passes through these stages. The first stage of culture shock is often
overwhelmingly positive and far from bewildering. This is often called the
“honeymoon stage” — when you’re so fascinated with the language, the people and
the food seem like the greatest thing you’ve ever met. Also, the amusement of life in a
new culture seems as though it will have no ending. Eventually, however, the
second stage of culture shock appears. This is the “hostility stage”. You begin to
notice that not everything is as good as you had originally thought it was. People
don’t treat you like a guest anymore. You get laughed at, you horribly offend a little
old lady without knowing why. It is a basic emotion that permeates every part of the
experience, from misunderstanding shopkeepers, to losing your keys or missing the
bus. Frustration comes and goes, disillusion comes on like a monsoon and the pangs
of homesickness can become debilitating. Usually at this point in your adjustment
to a new culture, you devise some defense mechanisms to help you cope and to
protect yourself against the effects of culture shock. One type of coping mechanism is
called “repression”. This happens when you pretend that everything is acceptable and
that nothing bothers you. Another type of defense mechanism is called “regression”.
This occurs when you start to act as if you are younger than you actually are; you act
like a child. You forget’ everything, and sometimes you become careless and
irresponsible. The third kind of defense mechanism is called “isolation”. You would
rather be home alone, and you don’t want to communicate with anybody. With
isolation, you try to avoid the effects of culture shock, or at least that’s what you think.
Isolation is one of the worst coping mechanisms you can use because it separates you
from those things that could really help you. The last type of defense mechanism is
called “rejection”. With this coping mechanism, you think you don’t need anybody.
You feel you are coping fine alone, so you don’t try to ask for help. The defense
mechanisms you utilize in the hostility stage are not helpful. If you only occasionally
use one of these coping mechanisms to help yourself survive, mat is acceptable. You
must be cautious, however. These mechanisms can really hurt you because they
prevent you from making necessary adjustments to the new culture. After you
deal with your hostile feelings, recognition of the temporary nature of culture shock
begins. Then you come to the third stage called “recovery”. In this stage, you start
feeling more positive, and you try to develop comprehension of everything you don’t
understand. The whole situation starts to become more favorable; you recover from
the symptoms of the first two stages, and you adjust yourself to the new norms, values,
and even beliefs and traditions of the new country. You begin to see that even though
the distinctions of the culture are different from your own, it has elements that you

(1)So Roger Chillingworth—a deformed old figure, with a face that haunted
men’s memories longer than they liked—took leave of Hester Prynne, and went
stooping away along the earth. He gathered here and there an herb, or grubbed up a
root, and put it into the basket on his arm. His grey beard almost touched the ground,
as he crept onward. Hester gazed after him a little while, looking with a half fantastic
curiosity to see whether the tender grass of early spring would not be blighted beneath

1. The two most celebrating holidays in the North and South America, Australia
and Europe, and in most of Christian world are Christmas and Easter.
正确答案:非谓语动词误用,应把celebrating改为celebrated。
解析:celebrate和holidays在逻辑上是动宾关系,即“节日被人们庆祝”,因此使用其过去分词。 知识模块:改错
2. This normally takes from five days to one week for a person to adapt to
reversed routine of sleep and wakefulness, sleeping during the day and working at
night.
正确答案:形式主语错误,应把句首的This改为It。
解析:该句真正的主语是后面的不定式,由于主语太长,所以将其放在句尾,并用It作形式主语,且It takes sb.sometime to do sth.为固定表达。 知识模块:改错
3. The millions of calculations involved, if they had been done by hand, all
practical value have lost by the time they were finished.
正确答案:虚拟语气错误,应在have前加上would。
解析:本句包含了与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句,从句谓语动词使用了had+过去分词,主句谓语动词应使用would/could/should/might+have+过去分词。句意为“如此之大的计算量,如果用手工计算的话,等到完成的时候也失去了所有的实用价值。”根据句意,在have前加上would最合适。 知识模块:改错
