When you study abroad and have the time of your life, it can easily feel like you’ve just experienced the climax of your life. When you return to your home country, you are very likely to suffer from reverse culture shock.
The trick to keeping study abroad experiences relevant even after your return is to not try to copy them. Instead, try and embrace your home culture once more by reminding yourself of all the amazing things you missed while abroad.
Once you’ve re-established yourself in your home culture, reach back to connect with your abroad culture. Find an authentically Italian, German, or Japanese restaurant that serves the kind of food you were used to eating. Take people with you, show them how to use chopsticks, and explain the healing power of the fish on their plate. As they become more familiar with your daily experiences abroad, it’ll become easier for them to reconnect with the new you.
Naturally, dinner at a Chinese restaurant with family in Oklahoma won’t be the same as with your friends abroad. For those friends you wish you could’ve taken home with you, don’t forget using email, letters, Skype, or calls to stay in touch. With the world getting smaller every day, you may find yourself in the same country, state, or city sooner than you think.
Once family and friends start to get a better idea of where your affection for the foreign culture came from, it’s time to find others with similar experiences to yours. The best place to start is the study abroad office at your school, which can easily put you in contact with other students who have just returned from abroad. Even with countries as different as Kenya and China, it’s often quite surprising how similar those experiences can be. Exchanging stories over lunch can be more therapeutic than doing the same with a clueless roommate.
[19]Other people who you will suddenly have a much closer connection to are international students from your study abroad country. Chatting with them and showing them around is not only a great way of keeping your foreign language skills sharp, but also a nice way of returning the hospitality you received abroad.
There is no doubt that people who come back from study abroad are returning with new perspectives, new ideas, and all the right potential for innovation. Don’t underestimate the change you can be. Find the right people and start out locally. Most importantly, regardless of what you end up doing, don’t leave your exploratory enthusiasm abroad.
16. What does the speaker suggest to keep one’s study abroad experience relevant?
17. What is the benefit of sharing daily experience abroad with friends from home country?
18. What does the speaker say about finding others with similar abroad experience?
19. What do we learn about international students from one’s study abroad country?
选项
A、They work at the study abroad office.
B、They have returned from Kenya or China.
C、They bring comfort to peers by exchanging experience.
D、They may be as clueless as your roommate.
答案
C
解析
录音指出,在午饭时间跟去过相同国家的同学交流具有治愈的效果(more therapeutic),A项“与有类似经验的人交流经历让他们感到安慰”是对be more therapeutic的同义转换,故为正确答案。录音指出可以到留学事务办公室找到拥有类似经历的人,而非A项所表达的“他们在留学事务办公室工作”。有出国经历的人,哪怕是去过肯尼亚或中国这些国家的人,也可能与自己有很多类似的经历,B项则错误地表述为“他们去过肯尼亚或中国”。录音中说的是与有类似经历的人聊天一定比毫无经验的舍友好,而不是D项所表达的“他们可能跟你的舍友一样毫无思绪”。
