     Culture shock has many stages. Each stage can appear only at certain times. Culture begins with the
" honeymoon". This is the period of time when we first arrive in which everything about the new culture
is strange and exciting. This honeymoon stage can last for quite a long time. Afterwards, the second stage
presents itself. A person may encounter some difficult times in daily life. This period of culture adjustment
(調(diào)整) can be very difficult and lead to the new arrival rejecting the new culture. This"rejection stage" can
be quite dangerous because the visitor may develop unhealthy habits, such as smoking, drinking too much.
     The third stage is characterized by gaining some understanding of the new culture. A new feeling of
pleasure and sense of humor may be experienced. And you are becoming stronger by learning to take care
of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor! This is called the"adjustment
stage".
     The fourth stage can be called" at ease at last". Now you feel quite comfortable in your new environment.
You can deal with most problems. You may still have problems with the language, but you know you are
strong enough to deal with them. If you meet someone from your country who has just arrived, you can be
the expert on life in the new culture and help them to deal with their culture shock.
     The fifth stage is the stage that is called the"re-entry shock." This occurs when a return to the country
of origin is made. One may find that things are no longer the same. For example, some of the newly learned
customs are not in use in the old culture.
1. What could be the best title of the passage?

A. How to Fight Cultural Shock
B. Stages of Cultural Shock
C. Origin of Cultural Shock
D. How to Adjust to New Cultural

2. In which stage may people miss their friends and relatives and feel homesick most?
A. The "honeymoon stage"
B. The "rejection stage"
C. The "adjustment stage"
D. The "re-entry shock"
3. Why do people experience the "re-entry shock"?
A. The place is not the same as before
B. The old customs have changes over the years
C. They are not used to the local customs.
D. They are no longer what they used to be.

　　In Glacier National Park, which is in the Rocky Mountains of Montana, there once roamed a little deaf Indian boy. He loved to wander in the forest, and made friends with the animals who lived there. Since he loved animals, he would observe them intently and learn their habits. This little Indian boy's name was John Lewis Clarke.

　　John Lewis Clarke's grandfather was a graduate from West Point and a captain in the U. S. Army. He was married to the daughter of a Blackfoot Indian Chief and adopted by the tribe. His son, John Lewis Clarke's father, also married an Indian princess, the daughter of Chief Stands Alone. Sadly, John's grandfather was later killed by Indians of another tribe near Helena, Montana.

　　John Lewis Clarke was not born deaf. He became ill at a young age with scarlet fever. Though he survived, he could no longer hear the sounds that the forest animals made. He could not hear his Indian friends when they called to him. Scarlet fever had caused him to lose his hearing. His Indian friends gave him the name Cutapuis (Cu-ta-pu-ee) which means, “man who talks not.”

　　Because John could not talk, he could not tell his parents about his many animal friends in the forest and the exciting things that he saw, but he found another way to express himself. He made figures of them out of clay(粘土) from the river banks. Later, when he was older, he learned to carve things out of wood. He loved to carve animals. With an axe and a pocket knife, he carved a life-sized image of a bear from a cedar trunk. The bear looked so real, the only thing missing was its growl.

　　When John was old enough to go to school, his parents sent him to the Fort Shaw Indian School. However, since he needed special education, he was transferred to a school for the deaf at Boulder, Montana. He also attended the School for the Deaf at Devil's Lake, North Dakota. When he was older, he enrolled at St. Francis Academy in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he studied wood carving. While he was still in his teens, John returned to Montana and opened a studio. He began to carve all the animals he had known very well in his childhood, and offer them for sale. He made models of animals out of wood, clay, and stone. He painted pictures using water colors and oils, and did excellent pen and ink drawings. He began to make a name for himself as an artist.

　　John spent most of his 89 years at his home studio in Glacier Park. Every year when the park season was over, he continued his work in Great Falls, Montana, his second home. Many important people bought John's work. John D． Rockefeller, Jr., the famous multimillionaire, was one of them. John's work was on exhibit in many places in this country. John died on November 20,1970. In his life-time, he literally carved his way to fame.

1．John probably started to use American Sign Language as soon as ________.

[　　]

A．he became deaf

B．he entered a school for the deaf

C．he could make figures out of clay

D．his Indian friends taught him

2．The subject of his artwork was mostly animals. This is most likely because ________.

[　　]

A．the environment he grew up has influenced him

B．he was an Indian

C．it was his way of expressing ideas

D．he did not like people

3．“The bear looked so real. The only thing missing was its growl.” This phrase means ________.

[　　]

A．John forgot to add one more thing

B．the bear was missing

C．the bear missed growling

D．the bear looked perfect except that it could not make any sound

4．During the course of his education, John attended ________.

[　　]

A．two schools

B．only a residential school for the deaf

C．four different schools

D．a(chǎn) school in Maine

　　The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant．The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages．Text messages(also called SMS)through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s．At first, mobile phone companies thought that text measuring would be a good way to messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other．Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called“texting．”

　　A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short．In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so it’s common to make words shorter．In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like“r”for“are”,“u”for“you”, and“2”for“to”．Several letters can also represent a phrase, like“l(fā)ol”for“l(fā)aughing out loud”．Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling“please”as“pls”．
