Specialists say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture．“Culture shock”is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment．There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists．In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment．Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else．In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surrounding and, as a result, enjoy their life more．
There are some obvious factors（因素）in culture shock．The weather may be unpleasant．The customs may be different．The public service systems-the telephones, post office, or transportation－may be difficult to work out．The simplest things seem to be big problems．The language may be difficult．
Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that．But culture shock surprises most people．Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their community．Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions．They find themselves without any identify（身份）．They have to build a new self－image．
Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation（迷失方向）．This feeling may be homesickness．When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time．They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security（安全）．This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short time, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture．Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience－these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock．
1.When people move to a new country, they _________．
A．will never be familiar with culture of the country
B．have well prepared for the new surroundings

2.According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, ________．
A．the fewer difficulties you may have abroad
B．the more difficulties you may have abroad
C．the more money you will earn abroad
D．the less homesick you may feel abroad
3.According to the passage, factors that give rise to culture shock include all of the following except __________．
A．language communication
B．weather conditions and customs
C．public service systems
D．homesickness
4.The writer tells us that the best way to overcome culture shock is to _______．
A．get familiar with new culture
B．develop a strange sense of self-protection
