XL，please!Before I came to the USA for studying，I had pictured thateverything there was extra large.In my imagination，everyonewas overweight，meals were big, and the size of the clothes waslarge.But those were only my imagination.When I first came to NWS (National Weather Service)，I wasshocked by the size of the school.Is there one single building with only threefloors？Then I stepped into the dormitory.Oh my God！The room was so tiny that I could reach the two ends within three big steps.I didn't have a choice；I could only bear with it.I even teased(嘲笑)myself，“I was wrong about the XXL image of America.”Surprisingly，things worked out very well.Being in a small school helped me to know almost everyone in school and build close relationships with the teachers.The small size of the class gave me the opportunity to express myself in class.In the tiny dormitory，I built my deepest friendship with my roommate.Although my impression was wrong, I was glad that it was wrong.Go to be respectful to the olderWhile we were sitting there in the park，one guy threw away his cigarette butt(烟蒂)in the lake.Obviously，it would pollute this beautiful and shiny lake.The colorful goldfish would die because of it.I asked him, “Hey! What are you doing？Why did you do that？”“What？How old are you？”the guy said.“I think I am younger than you，”I said.“Ha！Then just stay quiet.It's none of your business.I think you are really rude！”“What？Hey，think about the goldfish！Are you happy if I throw a cigarette butt at you？”He reviled(斥责)me and tried to hit me.I couldn't understand why he was angry like a mad dog.My friend persuaded him and me to calm down.I was really angry，so I just left that ter，my friend asked me，“Hey！Why did you do that？”“What？What did I do？”“You shouldn't do that.He is older than you！”“What？He was wrong.I didn't do anything wrong！”“This is in Korea.Even though he was wrong，you shouldn't blame him.”I think that happened because of the culture difference.In America, I can say anything and give advice even if I'm younger than the other person.I am used to this culture I forgot about Korean culture and I could experience the culture difference because of this.It threw me into deep and dark confusion.【诱思导学】1．What did the author think of America，before he went there?________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________2．What is the advantage of the small size of the class?________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________3．Why was the guy angry like a mad dog?________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】 1.He thought that everything was extra large.2．It gives students the opportunity to express themselves in class.3．Because the author is younger than the guy.According to the local culture，the author shouldn't blame him.Period ⅠPreviewing(教师用书独具)●教学目标本课时主要是通过学生对学案所给内容的学习，了解下一课时即将出现的词汇，初步了解课文以及相关的背景知识，将对下一节课内容的全面理解起到铺垫作用。
(课外阅读)culture shock in different countries
Culture Shock in General每个国家都有其自己的信仰、世界观、风俗、社会习惯等等，这些告诫国民什么可做，什么不该做。
人们刚刚投入到全新而陌生的环境中学习和工作普遍会遇到culture shock(文化冲击)。
对于culture shock应当如何对待？又有什么方法能让我们更好地调整自己以适应陌生环境？同学们不妨走进下文，也来“冲击”一下！Each society has its own beliefs, attitudes(看法), customs, behaviors and social habits. These give people a sense of who they are, how they should behave, and what they should or should not do. These “rules” reflect(反映) the “culture” of a country.People become conscious(留心的) of such rules when they meet people from different cultures. For example, in some cultures, being on time can mean turning up several hours late for an appointment, even for a business meeting; in others, 3 p.m. means 3 p.m. Also, the rules about when to eat vary from culture to culture. Many North Americans and Europeans are used to having three mealtimes a day and organize their timetable around them. In some countries, on the other hand, people often do not have strict rules like this—people eat when they want to, and every family has its own timetable.When people visit or live in a country for the first time, they are often surprised at the differences that exist between their own culture and the culture in the other country. The most common way of comparing two cultures is in terms of their differences—not their similarities. For some people, traveling abroad is an exciting experience; for others though, cultural differences make them feel uncomfortable, frightened, or even insecure(不安全的). This is known as “culture shock”. Here are several things to do in order to avoid culture shock.Learning how to adapt to a new culture1. Avoid quick judgments; try to understand people in another culture from their own point of view.2. Become more aware of what is going on around you, and why.3. D on't think of your cultural habits as “right” and other people's as “wrong”.4. Be willing to try new things and to have new experiences.5. Try to appreciate(重视) and understand other people's values.6. Think about your own culture and how it influences your attitudes and actions.7. Avoid having negative stereotypes about foreigners and their cultures.8. Show respect, sincerity(诚挚), interest, acceptance and concern for things that are important to other people.Understanding and appreciating cultural differences can help people avoid misunderstandings, develop friendships more easily, and feel more comfortable when traveling or living abroad. SpeakingWhat kind of difference in the cultures are you expecting between China and Canada? (How do you think culture shock?)I think western countries will be more religious than China, and I'm looking forward to visiting a church there. Also, business in western countries will be more formal--based on contracts ,and a lot less o n connections. I think that will be a bit hard to get used to .And, I think that life will move at a faster pace in western countries. I am not really looking forward to that, but I think I'll probably adjust after a while. I am certain that the major differences I'll encounter--perhaps inmindset or attitude ,but I think I‟ll have to experience those things before I can really understand them.Culture Shock in the U.S.AMy friend Dr. Dong had a wonderful chance to go to Seattle to present a paper at a professional meeting. Having attended my course in Intercultural Communications, he consulted me to review some of the cultural differences he might experience. I also gave him the phone number of a friend of mine who lived in the area. When he got back, we met to review his experience.Dr. Dong told me that the course information had helped him. He experienced the typical stages of culture shock. He arrived expectant and happy and enjoyed his first days very much. At the medical conference, he felt quite confident in his area of research and was able to perform well in his presentation. But after a few days, he began to feel uncomfortable. His medical English was fine, but the social interaction skills were different, and he was unsure of the cues and the communication style.He worried more and more that he was misunderstanding simple English greetings and table talk conventions. When someone greeted him with, " Hi, how's it going?" he thought they had asked him " where are you going?" and answered with the name of the conference hall, only to get a quizzical stare from them. At a western style dinner, a colleague asked, " So how're you enjoyin' the States?" he thought he heard, " how are you enjoying your steak?" and answered that he was eating chicken, not beef. That time, they smiled, and patiently repeated the question, then both laughed at the error.Such misunderstandings and miscommunications were minor. But for Dr. Dong, they were the beginning of a sense of " cultural confusion." By the end of the meetings, he felt a deep sense of " cultural stress" and was worn out from having to pay attention to so many new expressions and ways of dealing with things. He felt his handshake was not as firm as Americans', found that people reacted unusually when he modestly insisted his English was not good after they complimented him, didn't know how to accept dinner invitations properly and therefore missed out on going to several lunches, and so on. Eventually, he was so bewildered that he felt the full impact of " culture shock."What is culture shock and why does it occur? The term was coined about 50 years ago by the Swedish scholar, Kalvero Oberg. His seminal article，"Culture Shock: Adjustment to New Cultural Environments" (1960) has been reprinted and revised for many textbooks and magazines. He called it " the occupational disease of people who have been suddenly transplanted abroad." His use of the word " disease" is a pun, because it implies that it is like an " ailment, with its own symptoms and cure," but also that the root cause is also a feeling of " dis " ease, or unsettled uneasiness.Think back on your own experience. Have you ever moved from one context to another? Many students feel some of this adjustment shock when they change from one school to another, or move from a small town to a big city.The list of sensations one feels in new surroundings often includes:＊Feeling like an outsider, feeling unsure of oneself or even feeling stupid;＊Sensing that one's language skills aren't good enough, missing jokes, colloquial phrases, references to TV shows or pop songs or other cultural " insider" information;＊Feeling uneasy and unsettled, irritable and increasingly short tempered;＊Feeling lonely and wanting to go " home," feeling more and more like a stranger or outcast;＊Feeling overwhelmed, overloaded, daydreaming, staring blankly at things or even staring at nothing;＊Becoming more and more afraid of communicating and of making mistakes, worried, anxious.These are all symptoms of initial culture shock. With a new context comes new ways of doing things. So being uninitiated and unsure of what to do, this sense of displacement is often very strong at the beginning. But the good news is that humans are very good at adapting. Though everyone undergoes some degree of psychological stress in transition, after a few weeks or months, we learn how to " read" our new context. We become aware of the new cues, the new expectations, the new ways of communicating. With some trial and error, and with a lot of patience with oneself, most people succeed in overcoming culture shock and learn to enjoy their new context.Dr. Dong's visit to the US was only three weeks long, but by the end of the 5-day medical conference, he was already starting to feel more confident. Sure he felt a little foolish about some of the mistakes he had made, but he quickly learned to laugh at his errors and found his colleagues smiled with him. This broke down the barriers to communication and helped him build some good professional relationships. And after the conference, he contacted the family I had referred him to and had a very nice time visiting them. There were some new cultural surprises, but he discovered he could better understand and adapt to them.By the time he returned to China, he was feeling quite positive about his American trip, and was glad for the new experiences and new skills it had given him. He had become successful in the initial transitions to a new culture. Though he had gone through some embarrassing or trying culture stresses, each had proven to be valuable learning experiences, and in the end had helped him overcome culture shock.我的朋友董医生有幸获得了一次去西雅图在一个专业会议上做学术报告的好机会。

全新版大学英语综合教程4课文原文及翻译Unit 1: Cultural DifferencesText A: Understanding Cultural DifferencesPart ICulture Shock and Its EffectsCulture shock refers to the feeling of disorientation and confusion that individuals experience when living in a new cultural environment. It occurs when people are suddenly confronted with unfamiliar customs, traditions, languages, and behaviors that differ from those of their own culture.The effects of culture shock vary from person to person. Some individuals may feel anxious, lonely, or even depressed. Others may become frustrated or irritated by the differences they encounter. These symptoms can have a significant impact on individuals' mental and emotional well-being, making it crucial to develop strategies to cope with culture shock effectively.Part IIAdapting to a New CultureAdapting to a new culture requires an open mind and a willingness to learn and embrace new customs and traditions. It is essential to approach cultural differences with respect and curiosity, avoiding making hasty judgments or stereotypes.Language is often a significant barrier when adapting to a new culture. Learning the local language can greatly enhance communication andunderstanding, enabling individuals to connect with the local community and build meaningful relationships.Part IIIThe Importance of Cultural SensitivityDeveloping cultural sensitivity is vital in today's interconnected world. It involves being aware of and respectful towards cultural differences and understanding that there is no absolute right or wrong. By adopting a culturally sensitive mindset, individuals can navigate cross-cultural interactions more successfully and avoid misunderstandings or conflicts.Cultural sensitivity also plays a crucial role in global business and diplomatic relations. Being knowledgeable about cultural norms and practices can help individuals build trust and establish long-lasting partnerships.Part IVTips for Overcoming Culture Shock1. Seek support: Reach out to friends, family, or support groups who have experience living in the same or a similar culture. They can offer guidance and advice on how to cope with culture shock.2. Embrace new experiences: Rather than shying away from new customs and traditions, actively participate and embrace them. This can help foster a sense of belonging and facilitate cultural integration.3. Be patient: Adapting to a new culture takes time and effort. Be patient with yourself and others, and remember that adjusting to a new environment is a gradual process.Text B: Cultural Differences in EducationPart IThe Role of Education in Different CulturesEducation plays a central role in shaping individuals and societies. However, the goals and methods of education vary significantly across cultures. In some cultures, rote memorization and obedience to authority are emphasized, while others focus on critical thinking and creativity.Part IIViews on Teaching and LearningDifferent cultures hold diverse perspectives on teaching and learning. In some cultures, the teacher is viewed as the sole authority figure and imparts knowledge to passive students. In contrast, other cultures emphasize student participation and encourage critical thinking and independent learning.Part IIIClassroom DynamicsCultural differences also manifest in classroom dynamics. In some cultures, students are encouraged to speak up, ask questions, and engage in lively discussions. In contrast, other cultures value silence and respect for authority, where students listen attentively to the teacher without interrupting or challenging their views.Part IVEducation and Social MobilityThe role of education in social mobility varies across cultures. In some societies, education is seen as the primary means to improve one's social status and economic opportunities. In contrast, in more collectivist cultures, the emphasis may be on maintaining societal harmony rather than individual achievement.Text A Translation: 《理解文化差异》第一部分文化冲击及其影响文化冲击指的是个体在新的文化环境中所体验到的迷失和困惑感。

作主语和表语时，动名词形式表示一般的、概念性的、时常的动作，而动词不定式常表示一时的、偶然的行为和动作。
如：当医生是不错的选择。
（对任何人、任何时候而言都是这样的）当个好医生是我的梦想。
（对个人而言，是个别情况）用动名词还是不定式作宾语，主要分为以下四种情况：(1)只可使用动名词作宾语的动词：enjoy,miss,practice,prefer,suggest,consider,appreciate,avoid,mind,imagine,finish,admit,deny,delay,risk等。

Normal Level of Feelings
Adapted from a model by Robert Kohls
◆Therefore, culture shock is not a one-time phenomenon.
Culture shock is…
• …a strong, emotional reaction • …a feeling of not knowing what to do or how to do things in a new environment, and not knowing what is appropriate or inappropriate • …completely normal • …different for each person • …universal • sets in after the first few weeks of coming to a new place.

This approach attempts to understand values and behaviors from the point of view of that culture, rather than as right or wrong.
