    Experts say that it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is the term 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 surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.

    　　There are some obvious factors in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems---the telephone, 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 home countries and were successful in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity.

    　　They have to build a new self-image.

    　　Culture shock gives rises to a feeling of disorientation (迷惘). 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 and escape inside their room for a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock. 

    1. When people move to a new country, they _________.

    A. will get used to their new surroundings with difficulty

    B. have well prepared for the new surroundings

    C. will get used to the culture of the country quickly

    D. will never be familiar with culture of the country

    2.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 

    3.When people are homesick, they tend to ________.

    A. find some people to talk to             B. go outside to have a walk [来源:Z#xx#k.Com]

    C. visit their friends far away             D. stay indoors all the time

    4.The writer tells us that the best way to overcome culture shock is to _______.

    A. protect ourselves from unfamiliar environment    B. develop a strange sense of self-protection

    C. get familiar with new culture                  D. return to our own country

    For a small but increasing  number of young women in modern-day China, true love is all about the numbers. A potential suitor may have a good sense of humor and reasonable good looks, but what they say really matters is if he owns an apartment and how many square feet it is. A sizable bank account is also a must, and, some say, so is a luxury car。

    At least, that’s the way things look if you watch Chinese television these days. The latest reality-TV scandal to shock the nation involves Ma Nuo, a 22-year-old model from Beijing who appeared on China's most popular dating show, If You Are the One. She rejected an offer from a male contestant to take a ride on his bike. "I'd rather cry in a BMW (宝马) car than laugh on the backseat of a bicycle," Ma told her suitor with a giggle.

    The televised words swept the Internet and made an instant celebrity of Ma, who becomes one of the most talked-about women in the country. The reaction  among young Chinese was especially severe, reflecting growing anxieties over the widening gap between rich and poor, shifting societal values and public attention on the difficulties of finding a mate in a country where men are expected to outnumber women by 24 million in a decade.

    As disgusted as they have been by some of the contestants, viewers continue to watch religiously. Why are people still tuning in? "Audiences like programs because they are honest. They show the current reality of Chinese society," says Yan Mu, one of the founders of Baihe.com. Young people are so focused on making money and building their careers these days, they have little time to devote to dating, he says. "Many people feel pressure from their parents and peers," Yan adds. " It can be a struggle to find a partner." Money may not buy you love. But on China's reality shows, it can at least get you a date.

    1.The underlined words“numbers”in the first paragraph include the following except_______

    A．the age and degree

    B．the size of the house

    C．the sum of the deposit

    D．the price of the belonging

    2.What does Ma Nuo mean by saying“I’d rather cry in a BMW car than laugh on the backseat of a bicycle.”in the second paragraph?

    A．When she is in a BMW car, she will cry

    B．When she is on a bike, she will laugh

    C．She prefers money to true love

    D．She prefers true love to money

    3.Why do many young men take part in TV dating shows?

    A．because they think they may get true love from them

    B．because they think China’s reality shows can at least give them a chance to date

    C．because their parents and peers force them to do so

    D．because viewers like dating shows

    4.Which one of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

    A．some contestants have been disgusted because they are dishonest

    B．young people are too busy to take part in dating shows

    C．some people are worried that societal value are changing

    D．Ma Nuo rejected the bike offered by the contestant

    5.What is the best title of the passage?

    A．China’s TV Dating Show

    B．Date for Love or money

    C．Date Makes You a Celebrity

    D．Popular TV Dating Show
