Culture shock is a special disease for people who have suddenly moved to a foreign country. .
Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar signs of social communication. When to shake hands and what to say, when we meet people, when and how to give tips, how to do shopping, when to accept and refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These signs, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, or customs, are acquired（获得） by all of us in the course of growing up and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept.
.
Now when a person enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar signs are removed. No matter how broadminded will you may be, a series of supports have been knocked from under you, followed by a feeling of failure in much the same way. “The ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad.” When foreigners in a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure that they are suffering from culture shock.

Making Peace with Your Parents
As a teen, you’re going through big changes physically and mentally. Your interests are expanding. .
Here is the challenge: Kids need to explore the world in new ways, and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are out in that world. These conflicts can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm houses. Sometimes conflicts can’t be avoided. But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships, you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.
For instance, try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry, tired, distracted, or hungry. A good time to talk is when you’re all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, you’d better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation --- for now. . Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you’re listening.
.
Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each others’ feelings can disagree without things getting ugly.
. How do you build trust? Trust comes by actually doing what you say you’re going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships.
