The British Museum
Located in the Bloomsbury area of London,the British Museum is the location of a national collection of science and art treasures.It first began in 1753 when Parliament purchased the collection of Sir Hans Sloane and a collection from Sir Robert Cotton along with Sir Robert Harley’s Library.First opened to the public in 1759 in Montague House,it was later moved to its present location,being built in stages from 1823.The famous Reading Room was built in 1857 and is now part of the glassed-in Great Court.
The British Museum aims to “illuminate the histories of cultures for the benefit of present and future generations”.Thus,the number and subject of the exhibits and galleries are vast.Ranging from Africa,Asia,the Americas,and Europe to ancient Egypt,Greece,and Rome,and back to prehistoric times,they highlight more than just Britain.A visit to the Museum is a visit through the centuries of mankind and what he has left behind of himself.
The 4th to 20th century European art and archaeology collections illustrate cultures of the time.Items from the famous Anglo-Saxon Sutton Hoo burial are of particular interest.Sutton Hoo,located in East Suffolk,contained 11 barrows(坟墓)and the remains of a Saxon ship complete with gold and silver treasures.
Today the British Museum contains one of the most comprehensive collections of art and archaeology in the world.

【社会文化类】
Most people who move to a foreign country or culture may go through some form of culture shock,and its degree is determined by the differences between cultures,the anxiety to adapt to a new culture and the familiarity with a new culture,etc.If you go,for example,to a culture that is far different from your own,you’re likely to experience culture shock more sharply than those who move to a new culture knowing the language and the custom of it.
It is important to understand and learn how to deal with culture shock if you are to adapt successfully to your new home’s cultures.There are four general stages of cultural adjustment,and being aware of them helps you understand that culture
shock won’t last long.It’s just a process you are going through rather than a constant situation.
The first stage is usually referred to as “the honeymoon stage”.Upon arriving in a new environment,you’ll be interested in the new culture.Everything will seem thrilling and everyone will seem friendly and helpful.During this stage you are merely taking in these impressions passively.
But it isn’t long before the honeymoon stage gives way to the second stage — “the withdrawal stage”.The excitement you felt before is gone and problems arise.The language is hard to learn,people are unusual and unpredictable,friends are hard to make,and simple things like shopping and going to the bank are challenges.It is at this stage that you are likely to feel anxious and homesick,and you will probably find yourself complaining about the new culture or country.This is the stage called “culture shock”.
At some point,if you can manage it well,you’ll begin the transition into the next stage,“the recovery stage”,in which you’ll feel more confident functioning in the new culture.Customs and traditions are clearer and easier to understand.At this stage,you’ll deal with new challenges with humor rather than anxiety. 5.According to the passage,culture shock can be . A.dealt with more easily for some people B.reduced by learning the language alone C.avoided by knowing adjustment stages D.got rid of by learning just the custom
6.“The honeymoon stage” here refers to . A.the first month after the wedding B.the period of excitement C.the stage of adaptation
D.the holiday for a newly-married couple
7.Which of the following doesn’t belong to the second stage?( ) A.Becoming upset. B.Missing family. C.Feeling confident.
D.Making complaints.
