文章第一段的第二句“the degree to which it occurs will vary from one person to another.”表明人们遭受文化冲击的程度因人而异,因此该判断正确。
该判断错误。文中第二段中间提到“People react to the frustration in much the same way.”人们面对挫折时的反应基本相同。所以选B。
该判断正确。第二段的最后一句“First they reject the environment whichcauses the discomfort",当来到一个新文化中,人们的第一反应是杭拒带给他们不适的新环境,所以选A。
文章最后一段列出了文化冲击的种种表现,如对拖延和小挫折的过度担心、害怕被欺负、没有归属感、局外人的感觉等,但没有提到渴望旅行,因此选C。
文章的第三段提到“It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to real-ity.”回一次家能够使人回到现实,但是不能够帮助解决所有的问题,因此选B。
第一段中间的句子提到已有的跨文化经历等因素“all affect a person's ability to interact socially in the new culture",会影响到人们的社交能力,但是到底是正面还是负面的影响文中没有提及,所以选C。
