Just as you will have to prepare yourself for a period of psychological disorientation when you leave the USA, you should know that after your time abroad, you may also have to prepare yourself for a parallel period of readjustment when you return "home". Why? Simply because, if you have had a full experience living and learning overseas, you are likely to have changed some while you have been away. So the place you return to may itself appear to have changed, as indeed it might have. Even though these changes are seldom huge, and may not be apparent to others, you are likely to be very aware of them, and this can be confusing, all the more so because it is unexpected. Brigham Young University’s Culture Grams offer many insights on customs and lifestyles of individual countries. Phone 1-800-528-6279 or visit the website at http: //www. culturegram. com.
Immediately after you return, you can probably expect to go through an initial stage of euphoria and excitement. Most people are overwhelmed by the sheer joy of being back on their native land. But as you try to settle back into your former routine, you may recognize that your overseas experiences has changed some of many of your perceptions and assumptions, your ways of doing things, even what it means to " be yourself". You might have become, in a sense, a somewhat new person. After all, that is what education is all about! But this intellectual and personal growth means that you can expect a period of disorientation as you adjust to the " new" environment at home.
The readjustment period is usually rather short-lived, since " home" will never be as " foreign" to you as the foreign environment you adjusted to overseas. Also, your experience of dealing successfully with culture shock abroad will have provided you with the psychological tools for dealing with the challenges of readjustment. Obviously, the more you have immersed yourself, the more difficult it will be to have things go back to a previous notion of normality. However, if you are a-ware of the changes (and seek to learn from them) , smooth adaptation is more likely.
What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
选项
答案
Why you need readjustment after coming back from abroad.
解析
(文章第一段开头说当你从国外回国之后要经过一段时间的心理调整,后面接着设问了一下“这是为什么呢”,随后在讲原因。由此可知第一段的中心思想是“当你从国外回国之后为什么需要一段时间的心理调整”。)
