 What does the speaker mean by mentioning "a bucket of cold water thrown over you"?
【解题思路】四项均为一般现在时的描述性句子。本题考查的内容应该是某个细节,听录音时应注意对细节信息的提取,并留意四个选项中的关键信.(shocked by the difference,attitude …cold,foreign culture,budget shortfalls)。
【解析】讲座后半部分提到: “例如,你去到另一个国家或者一个不同的环境中,被一套不同的规则所支配。事实上,这种感受会令你非常震惊,就像被一桶冷水浇在身上。正是因为你无法将自己原本的文化当作一张地图,用来指导你自身的行为以及对周围环境的认知,文化冲击就这样发生了。”因此可以得出A项为正确答案。其余三项讲座中均未提及,属于干扰项,可排除。本题考查比喻的修辞手法,难度较大,需要考生对语境和语义进行准确把握。
