When I first arrived in Shenzhen, I was over the moon. Everything I experienced, such as ways of living, clothes, music, and food, seemed new.
However, after about two months, the differences made me feel uncomfortable. I started missing my friends and family. Annoying thoughts took over my mind: Nobody could really understand me. Why was it so difficult to learn Chinese Why couldn't I have my mom's cooking here
These thoughts were highly unhelpful. So over the next few months, I started to make some real changes. I made new friends, learned to get used to the differences and so on. Things started to make sense and I understood Chinese culture better and better! Every day I felt more and more comfortable with my new home. I developed many new traits(特点) while also keeping earlier ones from my home country. My happiest moment was when my dear friend one day said to me,“You are Chinese now, Jack! You sound just like us!”
Culture shock is not so difficult and here are some tips that did help me: Try to really put yourself out there and make friends! Talk, even when you make mistakes! Try to learn about the new culture. That doesn't mean you have to give up who you are and what you believe in!

Alicudi is an island in Italy. It is small, covering about two square miles, and has about 100people living there. It has no hotels and just one bar. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage site (世界遗产) since 2000. Now there are too many goats, and it's looking for people to keep them.But if you want one, you'll have to catch it yourself!
Riccardo Gullo, mayor(镇长) of the island, said,“There are six times as many goats as people living here. If you can catch a goat and have a boat to get it off the island, you can keep it!”
The number of goats on Alicudi has increased greatly in the last few years. They have broken walls, damaged gardens and even gone into homes. No one owns the goats.
Tourists like to take pictures with the animals, and Gullo does want some of the goats to stay for that reason ——but the number now is just too large.
Gull o said anyone who wants to keep a goat —— or up to 50 goats ——can send an email to the local government and pay about $17. They'll then have 15 days to catch them and take them away!

Rather than trying to see as much as you can at the museum, put your focus on details. Art is all about your feelings. You can get very close to the painting, look at the colours. And then take a few steps back and look at it from the distance to see how the whole painting changes.
Ask questions.
29 . Why is that painting so famous How long would an artist need to create the painting Take the advantage of having a guide with you and ask everything that interests you.They usually know a lot about the collections.
Do not take pictures.
Although some exhibits could be so beautiful and interesting to you, don't take photos of them. If using the flash(闪光灯), you'll damage the paintings that are often hundreds of years old.And you can find great photos of the paintings on the website. 30
