【正确答案】：
        CULTURE SHOCK MIGHT BE CALLED AN OCCUPATIONAL DISEASE OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN SUDDENLY TRANSPLANTED ABROAD. LIKE MOST DISEASES, IT HAS ITS OWN SYMPTOMS.
        CULTURE SHOCK IS CAUSED BY THE ANXIETY THAT RESULTS FROM LOSING ALL OUR FAMILIAR SIGNS AND SYMBOLS OF SOCIAL INTERCOURSE. THOSE SIGNS OR CUES INCLUDE THE THOUSAND AND ONE WAYS WITH WHICH WE ARE FAMILIAR IN THE SITUATION OF DAILY LIFE. SOME OF THE SYMPTOMS OF CULTURE SHOCK ARE: EXCESSIVE WASHING OF THE HANDS; EXCESSIVE CONCERN OVER DRINKING WATER, FOOD DISHES, AND BEDDING; FEAR OF PHYSICAL CONTACT WITH ATTENDANTS; 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; GREAT CONCERN OVER MINOR PAINS AND ERUPTIONS OF THE SKIN; AND FINALLY, THAT TERRIBLE LONGING TO BE BACK HOME.
        TO OVER COME CULTURE SHOCK, THERE ARE SEVERAL ADVICE TO HELP YOU. IT IS VERY PLEASANT TO TRAVEL AND TO TRY OUT AND EXPLORE WHATEVER IS NEW. YOU SHOULD STICK WITH THE EXPERIENCE AND TRY TO DEAL WITH IT REALISTICALLY. THEN, YOU SHOULD LEARN THE SYSTEMS, PROCEDURES, LANGUAGE, OR NONVERBAL BEHAVIORS OF THE NEW ENVIRONMENT SO THAT YOU CAN COPE WITH IT ON THE BASIS OF SOME MASTERY, COMPETENCE, AND COMFORT. 
【题目解析】：
结合课文给出文化震荡的定义，原因表现以及建议。
文化震荡可以被称为突然移居到国外的人所患的一种职业病。同大多数疾病一样， 这种病也有其自身的症状。
文化震荡是由于人们失去了以往社交活动中所熟悉的标志与信号而引起的忧虑所造成的。这些标志与信号包括了我们所熟悉的日常生活中的方方面面。文化震荡的一些症状包括频繁洗手； 过度担心饮用水、餐具、寝具是否洁净；害怕与服务员有身体上的接触；心不在焉地瞪视；感到无依无靠，总想依赖在当地定居已久的本国同胞；受到一点挫折便时时发火；有一点小痛小痒就极度焦虑；最后就是迫切希望重归故里。
有几点建议可以帮助你克服文化震荡。无论是旅游还是试验，探索任何新的东西都能令人非常愉快。你应该坚持下去，尽力脚踏实地地处理种种不如意。然后，你应该了解了新环境中的制度、常规、语言及身体语言。因而你便能比较熟练地、较有把握地、相对自如地处理新环境中出现的各种情况。
