3. 段落翻译

When a person moves from one culture to another, he

suddenly finds that much of what he has learned about

interpreting the actions of people around him is suddenly

irrelevant. He finds that the strategies he has used to influence

people or events in certain ways are no longer effective, and the

assumptions that guided his understandings and reactions are

no longer reliable. Even distinguishing between the significant

and the insignificant in a given situation becomes difficult, if not

impossible.

This sudden psychological transition from competent adult

to ineffective child inevitably results in the serious impact of the

individual’s feelings of selfworth. He experiences feelings of

frustration and helplessness. In short, he experiences culture

shock.

Culture shock is the result of the removal of the familiar.

Suddenly the individual is faced with the necessity of working,

commuting, studying, eating, shopping, relaxing, even sleeping,

in an unfamiliar environment organized according to unknown

rules. In mild form, culture shock shows itself in symptoms of

fatigue, irritability and impatience. Being unable to interpret the

situations in which they find themselves, people often believe

they are being deliberately deceived or exploited by host-country

nationals.

They tend to perceive rudeness where none is intended.

Their efficiency and flexibility is often impaired and both work

and family suffer. Some people may respond by developing

negative stereotypes of the host culture, by refusing to learn the

language and by mixing exclusively with people of their own

cultural background. In extreme cases, rejection may be so

complete that the individual returns immediately to their own

culture, regardless of the cost in social, economic or personal

terms. Alternatively, people may retreat into their own private

world, either mentally or physically.

Physical symptoms of culture shock may include headaches,

stomachaches, constant fatigue, difficulty in sleeping and a

general feeling of uneasiness. Unfortunately, many doctors are

unfamiliar with culture shock and attempt to treat the symptoms

rather than the cause.

The important thing to recognize about culture shock is that

it is universal. It is experienced to a greater or lesser degree by all

those who move from one culture to another. Experiencing

culture shock does not mean that an individual is inflexible or

unadaptable. It does mean that recognition of its inevitability can

lead to the development of steps to reduce its impact.
