W: It's not the Canadian culture but the culture shock that was unbearable.
M: What do you mean by culture shock?
W: Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and symbols of social communication.
M: Being more specific, what is that?
W: When an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar signs are removed. He or she is like a fish out of water. A series of props have been knocked out from under him, followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety.
M: What are people's reactions?
W: People react to the frustration in much the same way. They reject the environment, which causes the discomfort. The home environment suddenly assumes a tremendous importance. 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. That's why I'm back.
M: It's like an illness.
W: Yes.
M: Any other symptoms?
W: Excessive concern over drinking water, food and bedding; fear of physical contact with others, 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; and finally, that terrible longing to be back at home.
M: What is the reason for all this?
W: This evidently grows out of the real difficulties, which the visitor experiences in the process of adjustment. There are house troubles, transportation troubles and shopping troubles.
M: I bet everyone comes across some difficulty.
W: If people succeed in getting some knowledge of the language and begin to get around by themselves, they are beginning to open the way into the new cultural environment.
M: Have you got it?
W: Hard to say.
M: Ha!

听力原文:M: How was your weekend?
W: It was awful.
M: Awful? Really? But I thought you were supposed to be going on a trip. Did it get cancelled?
W: No, unfortunately, it wouldn't been better if it had.
M: What do you mean?
W: Well, five of us were supposed to go to Chicago in Lisa's car.
M: Yeah?
W: And we were going to stay at Sue's parents' house, which is in Chicago.
M: Right?
W: So it's about a four-hour trip, and we were going to get there on Friday evening, spend Saturday sightseeing, and come back last night so we could go to classes this morning.
M: OK. That sounds like a good plan. So what went wrong?
W: What didn't go wrong? First of all, we were all crammed into Lisa's tiny car with all four bags.
M: Sounds pretty uncomfortable.
W: Hold on. I'm just getting started. Remember how hot it was this weekend?
M: Yeah, It was so bad I had to get out of the library. I ended up going to the beach both days.
W: Well, we were stuck in Lisa's car Friday afternoon and the air conditioner wasn't working.
M: Why didn't you open the windows?
W: We did, but the breezes blowing in weren't exactly cool.
M: I'll bet you were glad to get to Chicago.
W: That's the worst part. We never made it. Mary started feeling sick from all the heat, so Lisa tried driving faster to find Mary something to drink. To make a 10ng story short, the car broke down and we were stranded till this morning in some small town near the Indiana border.
M: Couldn't Sue's parents come pick you up?
W: They were out of town.
