文化冲击与适应
什么是文化冲击? 它并不像这个词所暗示的那样“令人震惊”或突然. 基本上, it is the realization that many of your presumptions about the world and the way to get along may not always be accurate in another culture. It is also a deep and sometimes disturbing recognition that you are far from home, and you feel a growing sense that the rules you have learned your whole life do not apply. The "shock" is not a single moment but rather a growing emotional, physical, and mental awareness.
It is important to remember that this shock is part of your student's adaptation and a very normal process. These are feelings that are commonly experienced by anyone going through a major transition. 即使是那些经常出国旅行的人也会有这种经历, it is important that your student does not feel ashamed about their reactions to new situations. Acknowledge them and try not to let the negative feelings cloud their entire experience.
经历海外文化冲击的阶段
蜜月阶段:
你的学生会有很高的期望和积极的心态. Anything new is intriguing and exciting; new sights, new tastes, new smells, etc. Early problems are usually masked by the many tasks and adjustments that your student has to make. 这个阶段可能持续几天到几周.
拒绝阶段:
Your student will begin struggle to perform daily tasks because of the differences in language, 住房, 朋友, 或学业. Your student may become aggressive and begin to complain about the new country and culture. Your student may begin to reject the new country and only notice the bad things that bother them.
回归阶段:
Your student may begin to indulge in their own culture by only speaking English, 吃家里的食物, 只和来自自己文化背景的人交往. He/She may continue to complain about every aspect of the new country/culture and only remember the good things about their home country/culture. They may begin to remember their home as a wonderful place where nothing ever went wrong and often question why they left. 你的学生可能会感到焦虑, 悲伤, and homesickness and may be affected by these feelings through compulsive eating/drinking, 睡眠模式的改变, 或易怒.
适应阶段:
Your student will become more comfortable with the language and customs on the new country. He/She will become accustomed to the culture and begin to realize that no country is that much better than another, 只是不同的. 你的学生会更适应新的环境, 新食物, 新的习俗和幽默感开始回归.
逆转/返回阶段:返回美国后出现的症状.S.
Your student may feel depressed and miss the country and 朋友 they have left behind. He/She may feel that no one understands or cares about what they have experienced. Your student may come home with different perspectives and views about their culture and lifestyle. He/She might feel like a stranger in their home and become irritated and critical others and American culture.
记住，每个人都是不同的。
不是每个人都会经历文化冲击的所有阶段. Some will experience the phases in different orders and for different lengths of time.
