“Reconstituted” families are more and more common in the UK.
Steve and Debbie got married in 2001 and had two children,Lily and Alex.Unfortunately,Steve and Debbie’s marriage didn’t work out and they got divorced in 2006.The children live with Debbie.In 2008,Debbie remarried.Her new husband,Martin,has three children from his previous marriage and they visit Debbie,Martin,Lily and Alex at weekends.In addition,Debbie is pregnant with her third child.She’s expecting a boy who will be a half?brother to Lily and Alex and also to Martin’s three other children.
Confused?Debbie’s family arrangements might have seemed strange 30 years ago but nowadays this kind of “reconstituted” family is increasingly common in the UK.Almost half of all marriages in Britain end in divorce and over 40% of marriages are remarriages.More than 10% of all British children live with one birth parent and a stepparent—a parent who isn’t their biological mother or father.The traditional “nuclear” family of two parents and their children is not so traditional any more.
What does all of this mean for parents in these “reconstituted” families?“There are difficulties and challenges,” says Debbie.“Different families have different routines and it can be difficult for children to move between their two families.Birthdays and holidays can be tricky.Where do the children go?Who should they spend their time with?Also,when my children are naughty it can be difficult for Martin to tell_them_off.Things that might be simple in a traditional family can be a bit more complicated.”
And how about the children?Martin’s eldest child,Ella,is 12.“I like my two families,” she says.“I live with my mum but visit my dad quite often and I’m happy that my mum and dad get along OK.They’re not married any more but it’s good that they can still be friends.” Of course divorce and separation are never easy but many families in the UK are finding ways to make family life work in new ways.

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.
1.According to the passage,culture shock can be________.
A.dealt with more easily for some people
B.reduced by learning the language alone
C.a(chǎn)voided by knowing adjustment stages
D.got rid of by learning just the custom
2.“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
3.Which of the following doesn’t belong to the second stage?
A.Becoming upset. B.Missing family.
C.Feeling confident. D.Making complaints.
4.What would be probably discussed in the following paragraph?
A.Consequences of culture shock.
B.Challenges in a new country.
C.Preparations for a new culture.
D.The 4th stage of cultural adjustment.
