Task 1 summary writing

Directions: this part is to test your ability to do basic academic writing. You are required to read the following passage and then write a summary (no less than 80 words) about what you have read. The summary must be written on the Answer Sheet.

Culture shock is a well – known but little understood term. Although most people have head of it, few people understand what it means. Recent research has taken a closer look at this phenomenon, and as a result we understand it a little better. Now we know for sure what it is and how it can be managed. Here is a geed working definition for you. Culture shock is a consequence of: the stress experienced as result of contact with a new culture; and the feelings of loss, confusion, and impotence that result from the loss of accustomed cultural cues and social rules. It can cause both psychological reactions. If we hope to adapt to life in China, we need more than abstract information on the external realities which confront us in a foreign culture. We also need detailed information on the internal reactions we may experience from time to time when confronted by something that is outside the range of our previous experience. We may have difficulty understanding these. These reactions may include, for example: anxiety, alcohol abuse, depression, emotion/ psychological

crises, extreme anger, interpersonal and social difficulties, fatigue, loss of identity, irrational suspicion, uncomfortable physiological reactions, stress, and uncharacteristic changes in behavior. All changes are stressful, and culture shock is a normal reaction to change, although we may not think so at the time. Culture shock is not a mental illness, and with a little self-knowledge it can be managed successfully. Being aware of the typical reactions to cultural shock helps adaptation. We can then reinterpret difficult situations in light of this awareness, and work towards developing useful coping strategies. Task 2 Applied writing

answers on the Answer sheet. Halloween history is one of religious tradition, sacrifices and 11._______ folklore. While it seems strange to understand the motivation of

these ancient actions, it is good to knowing the roots of our current 12.______ practices of Halloween. The history of Halloween, like any other festivals‘ history is inspired through traditions that have transpired through ages from

one generation into the next, and as this process goes on, much of 13.______ their original meaning and roots are distorted by newer additions

and alterations. It happens so gradual, spanning so many years, 14._________ that we don‘t even notice the drastic change from traditional practices to today‘s way of celebration. Digging into its history

compare with innocent children we watch smiling when going 19._________ through their candy stash at the end of a ―trick-or- treating‖

adventure? Modern day Halloween practices encompass some of

the reality with the age-old customs; I guess we can say that 20.________ celebrating Halloween is commercialism draped in a veil of mysticism.
