culture shock

Going abroad to study would lead to embarrassment, but this process that is called ‘culture shock’ is natural and useful to overcome your stress. First, getting used to the British’s gloomy skies might be difficult, for the chilly winter makes students cynical and demoralized. Second, due to the unfamiliar British food and unaccustomed cooking for themselves, they would depend on junk food. It causes damage to your health. Students have to take natural vitamins from fresh fruit and vegetables. Third, since thick clothes would be so uncomfortable to some students who come from warm countries, they may think that the British figure of dress is ridiculous, monotonous and unseemly. Next, it is tiring work to study English steadily, so it leads to missing their familiar language. Also, British regional accents and quick speaking cause misunderstandings, even though they can speak English fluently. Therefore, students have to take responsibility to adapt themselves to new circumstances.
