Reading Test 3 
 
SECTION 1 
You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-14 which are based on Reading 
Passage 1 
Australian culture and culture shock
A. 
Sometimes work, study or a sense of adventure take us out of our familiar surroundings 
to go and live in a different culture. The experience can be difficult, even shocking. 
B.
Almost everyone who studies, lives or works abroad has problems adjusting to a new 
culture. This response is commonly referred to as 'culture shock'. Culture shock can be 
defined as 'the physical and emotional discomfort a person experiences when entering a 
culture different from their own' (Weaver, 1993). 
C.
For people moving to Australia, Price (2001) has identified certain values which may give 
rise to culture shock. Firstly, he argues that Australians place a high value on 
independence and personal choice. This means that a teacher or course tutor will not tell 
students what to do, but will give them a number of options and suggest they work out 
which one is the best in their circumstances. It also means that they are expected to take 
action if something goes wrong and seek out resources and support for themselves. 
D.
Australians are also prepared to accept a range of opinions rather than believing there is 
one truth. This means that in an educational setting, students will be expected to form 
their own opinions and defend the reasons for that point of view and the evidence for it. 
E. 
Price also comments that Australians are uncomfortable with differences in status and 
hence idealise the idea of treating everyone equally. An illustration of this is that most 
adult Australians call each other by their first names. This concern with equality means 
that Australians are uncomfortable taking anything too seriously and are even ready to 
joke about themselves.
