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.

When I was about twelve, I headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family. It was winter, and on that particular night, the wind was really blowing. As my mom and I headed towards the restaurant from our car, a girl about my age and her mother came up to us. They asked if we had any spare change. My mom immediately asked where they kept their things. They pointed to an old car in a parking across the street. The girl said there were six of them living in that car, which was the same size as my own family.
My mom said she had something to do after handing the people a few dollars. She sent me inside the restaurant with my dad and my three siblings. But she didn’t come.
Later, I found out she had gone home and practically emptied our cupboards into a few bags. Then, she brought that food over to the car and handed the bags to the family. I wasn’t there when that part happened, but I can only imagine the joy it brought to their faces.
A few days later, when I actually found out about what she had done, I asked her why she helped those people. She told me that they were not lucky. I remember the face of that girl who had asked us for change, she was the same age as me, yet we looked so different.
Here I stood, dressed in almost new clothes, headed to dine in a restaurant and then back home to the bedroom I shared with my younger sister. I remember thinking that the other girl didn’t have any food to eat. and she was heading back to a cold car shared with five other people.
