10. culture shock
culture shock is precipitated1 by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and symbols of social intercourse. those signs or cues include the thousand and one 2 ways in which we orient3 ourselves to the situation of daily life ; when to shake 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 when not. these cues, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, customs, or norms, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and are as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. all of us depend for our peace of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness.
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 you may be , a series of props6 have been knocked from under you, followed by a feeling of frustration7 and anxiety. people react to the frustration in much the same way. first they reject the environment which causes the discomfort.“the ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad. ”when foreigners in a strange land get together to grouse about8 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 a tremendous importance. to the foreigner everything becomes irrationally glorified. all the difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered. it usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.
some of the symptoms of culture shock are excessive washing of the hands, excessive concern 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-term residents of one’s own nationality; fits of anger over minor frustrations; great concern over minor pains and eruptions of the skin; and finally, that terrible longing to be back home. 9

出门一日难
文化休克现象源自焦虑, 焦虑的原因是我们找不到熟悉的社会标志及特征。这些标志 或暗示包含了许多引导我们适应日常生活的方法: 什么时候握手, 与人见面时该说什么话, 什么时候及怎样给小费, 如何购物, 什么时候接受邀请, 什么时候拒绝邀请, 什么话需要严 肃对待, 什么话不需要。这些暗示可以是话语、手势、面部表情、风俗或者行为准则, 它们都 是我们在成长的过程中获得的, 就像我们所说的语言或接受的信仰那样, 成为我们的文化 的组成部分。为了使心态平和, 工作高效, 我们大家都依赖于无数个这样的暗示, 其中大多 数的暗示都不是我们有意识地进行传达的。
