　　Culture Shock

　　Culture shock is precipitated1 by the anxiety thatresults from losing all our familiar signs and symbolsof social intercourse. Those signs or cues includethe thousand and one 2 ways in which we orient3ourselves to the situation of daily life ; when toshake hands and what to say when we meet people ,when and how to give tips, how to make purchases,when to accept and when to refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and whennot. These cues, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, customs, or norms, areacquired by all of us in the course of growing up and are as much a part of our culture as thelanguage we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend for our peace of mind and ourefficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of consciousawareness.

　　Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are removed.He or she is like a fish out of water4 . No matter how broad-minded5 or full of good will youmay be , a series of props6 have been knocked from under you, followed by a feeling offrustration7 and anxiety. People react to the frustration in much the same way. First theyreject the environment which causes the discomfort.“The ways of the host country are badbecause they make us feel bad. ”When foreigners in a strange land get together to grouseabout8 the host country and its people , you can be sure they are suffering from culture shock.Another phase of culture shock is regression. The home environment suddenly assumes atremendous importance. To the foreigner everything becomes irrationally glorified. All thedifficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered. Itusually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.

　　Some of the symptoms of culture shock are excessive washing of the hands, excessiveconcern over drinking water, food dishes, and bedding; fear of physical contact with attendants,the absent-minded stare; a feeling of helplessness and a desire for dependence on long-termresidents of one’s own nationality; fits of anger over minor frustrations; great concern overminor pains and eruptions of the skin; and finally, that terrible longing to be back home.

　　参考译文

　　出门一日难

　　文化休克现象源自焦急, 焦急的原因是我们找不到熟悉的社会符号及特征。这些符号 或体现包括了很多引导我们适应日常糊口的要领: 什么时候握手, 与人晤面时该说什么话, 什么时候及奈何给小费, 如何购物, 什么时候接管邀请, 什么时候拒绝邀请, 什么话需要严 肃看待, 什么话不需要。这些体现可以是话语、手势、面部心情、风尚可能行为准则, 它们都 是我们在生长的进程中得到的, 就像我们所说的语言或接管的信仰那样, 成为我们的文化 的构成部门。为了使心态和善, 事情高效, 我们各人都依赖于无数个这样的体现, 个中大多 数的体现都不是我们有意识地举办转达的。

　　这时候, 一小我私家进入一种生疏的文化规模时, 他先前所熟悉的全部可能说大部门的暗 示都消失了, 他就会感想无所适从。不管你是如何的心胸开阔抑或热情高涨, 在失去了一 个个依托之后, 你总会有一种挫败感和焦急感。面临荆棘, 人们的回响险些都是一样的。 首先, 人们会排出给他们带来困苦的那种情况。“ 东道国的糊口方法欠好是因为它们让我 们以为不舒服。”当一群客居他国的同乡聚在一告状苦东道国和东道国的人民时, 你就可以 确定他们正饱受文化休克之苦。文化休克的另一个阶段是回归。老家顿然变得异常重要。 对身居他乡的人而言, 老家的一切都不合情理地变得荣光异彩。他们将所有的贫苦与狐疑 都抛之脑后, 记着的都是老家的美功德物。凡是, 只有回家一趟后才气让他重返现实。

　　文化休克引起的一些症状是: 频繁地洗手, 太过体贴饮用水、食物及寝具问题, 畏惧与 处事生的身体打仗, 看对象时心不在焉, 感想无助和但愿从来自老家的恒久居住于此的人 哪里获得依靠感, 动辄大发性情, 对小病痛和皮疹太过担心等等, 后, 就是火急地盼愿回 归家乡。
