This process, which helps us to deal with culture shock, is the way our brain and our personality react to the strange new things we encounter when we move from one culture to another.Culture begins with thehoneymoon stage. This is the period of time when we first arrive in which everything about the new culture is strange and exciting. We may be suffering from jet lag but we are thrilled to be in the new environment, seeing new sights, hearing new sounds and language, eating new kinds of food. This stage can last for quite a long time because we feel we are involved in some kind of great adventure.Unfortunately, the second stage can be more difficult. After we have settled down into our new life,we can become very tired and begin to miss our homeland and our family, friends, pets. All the little problems in life seem to be much bigger and more disturbing when you face them in a foreign culture.This period of cultural adjustment can be very difficult and lead to the new arrival rejecting or pulling away from the new culture.The third stage is called the adjustment stage. This is when you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the host culture. Your sense of humour usually becomes stronger and you realize that you are becoming stronger by learning to take care of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor!The fourth stage can be called “at ease at last”. Now you feel quite comfortable in your new surroundings. You can cope with most problems that occur. You may still have problems with the language, but you know you are strong enough to deal with them.There is a fifth stage of culture shock which many people dont know about. This is called “reverse culture shock”.Surprisingly, this occurs when you go back to your native culture and find that you have changed and that things there have changed while you have been away. Now you feel a little uncomfortable back home. Life is a struggle!56. When does culture shock happen？A. When you reach your teensB. When you move to a big cityC. When you meet foreign people for the first timeD. When you go to live in a foreign culture57. How do you feel during the first stage of culture shock？A. Lonely and depressed B. Bored and homesickC. Happy and excited D. Angry and frustrated58. How could the third stage be described？A. Adjustment B. Rejection C. Enthusiasm D. Anger59. Why might-reverse culture shock be a problem？A. It hardly ever happens. B. It is extremelystressful.C. Most people do not expect it. D. It only happens to young people.BMark felt that it was time for him to take part in his community, so he went to-the neighborhood meeting after work. The area s city councilwoman(女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems.Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.It was too much for Mark.“The problems are too big,”he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, “I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here.”Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. “People should just take care of themselves,”he decided. “That s enough to do. I can t take on all the problems of the world. ”As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didnt have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy,suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boys arm and led him back to his mother.Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. “Thanks! ”she said. “Youve got great timing!”“Just being neighborly,” Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. on one of them was “Small acts of kindness add up. ”Mark smiled and thought, “Maybe thats a good place to start.”60In Marks opinion， A nobody was so able as to solVe the problemsB he was not in the position to solVe such problemsCmany people were too selrish to think about othersD he already had more than enough Work to do61The underlined word“darted”in paragraph 5 can be best replaced by“ ”Awalked Bmarched Cwandered Drushed62What is the implication of the Words on the bus wall？AYoU shoUld be kind to your neighbors and they will treat yoU the same wayBEveryone can play his own part to make things betterCAll small acts will add up to kindnessDIts a small act to help a person in need63The passage is mainly about Ahow individuals can help make a differenceBrunning a neighborh00d meeting to solVe its problemsCcitizensreactions to the problems they faceD solVing problems through group actionCTo the Editor,I have been reading your newspaper, the Hometown Gazette, for the past two years, ever since I moved to Smithville. We moved here from New York City, so I am accustomed to reading excellent newspapers such as The New York Times. In fact, we still have the Times delivered on Sundays. The entire family enjoys reading the recipes(食谱) in the magazine, as well as the Styles section.The Times is great, but the Gazette is another story. I ve never read an article that doesnt contain at least three or four spelling or grammatical errors. For instance, in last weeks issue, you misspelled the word“secretary,”used a singular verb with a plural noun, and used “its”as a possessive(所有格). And that was just in the lead story! In case you never went to elementary school, “its”means “it is. ”Its not a possessive adjective!Its a pity that this tiny little hick (乡下) town has only one newspaper, because I d like to have an alternative to the rag you publish. I find it hard to believe your news stories. If you can t spell correctly, how can you get your facts right？I ve been meaning to get this off my chest for some time. Please cancel my subscription(订阅 ).And buy yourself a dictionary.Sincerely,Jane Z. Jones64.
