Do you enjoy eating salsa and chips? Or maybe you like having ketchup on your fries? Then, you must like the essential ingredient in these sauces, tomatoes. The tomato originally comes from South America and has been eaten by people there for thousands of years. Today, tomatoes are popular the world over. However, when they were first introduced, there was quite a bit of controversy and worry surrounding them. Ancient Aztec writings mention recipes for dishes of tomatoes, peppers, and salt-probably the first salsa recipe! Spanish soldiers conquered the Aztecs and brought tomato seeds back with them to Europe. In Europe, these yellowish tomatoes were first called “apples of gold.” For a long time, people in Northern Europe and North America did not eat these “apples of gold.” People were afraid to eat tomatoes because the plant looked similar to the nightshade plant, a deadly poison. German people even thought that if someone ate tomatoes, he or she would change into a werewolf. However, by the mid-1800s, people all over the world had accepted the tomato as a good food to eat. Nevertheless, the tomato was due for more controversy. Do you think tomatoes are a fruit or vegetable? Actually tomatoes are a fruit. However, in America, tomatoes are a vegetable by law. Why are tomatoes legally a vegetable in America? In the 1800s, there was no import tax on fruit from other countries, but there was an import tax on vegetables. At that time, many tomatoes were coming from other countries into America, and American tomato farmers became worried about making a living. The government made tomatoes a vegetable by law so that non-American tomatoes would be taxed. It is easy to tell that the tomato is really a fruit. In fact, tomatoes are similar to berries. Both have seeds inside, and both grow from the flowers of a plant. Both also have delicious flesh surrounding the seeds. Tomatoes and strawberries are actually in the same family. Question 31.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the question. Culture shock is the emotional and mental reaction to being in a completely new cultural environment. This is often a very difficult experience for many people and it consists of several stages of feelings until someone successfully adapts to being in the new culture. The “honeymoon” phase of culture shock is usually the first stage that people go through when surrounded by different cultural values and lifestyles. During this stage, people often have very positive images of their new cultural surroundings. They tend to view these in an idealistic way and ignore or minimize problems. Encounters with new people are seen as fascinating and unique. This phase is usually quite short for most people and quickly gives way to the second stage, called “the frustration phase”. During the “frustration phase”, the newcomer begins to experience a more negative view of their cultural surroundings. The problems of communicating in a new language or the tasting different foods, for example, are no longer novel. The visitor tends to exaggerate or dwell on problems in the new culture. There is a definite frustration that things that should be easy are still difficult. For example, people who may have been enjoyed learning the basics of a language during the honeymoon phase would now find it a chore to try and communicate with locals in the frustration phase. Newcomers may feel isolated during this phase and many people will voluntarily isolate themselves. Depending on one’s outlook and situation, this phase can last days, months, or even years. After the frustration phase ends, the adjustment phase begins. This marks the time when newcomers begin to adapt to the new culture. They begin to accept the differences around them and the challenges of everyday life. They can appreciate some aspects of the new culture while being realistic about those they perceived as problems back in the frustration phase. This opens the door to three possible outcomes – mastery, rejection, or assimilation. Those newcomers who enter the “mastery phase” have completely adapted to the values and beliefs of the new culture. They are able to navigate the new culture like a native while at the same time keeping some of their own original cultural values. Those who choose the “rejection phase” have decided against integrating in the new culture and do not accept it. They usually choose to permanently withdraw from the culture through isolation or returning home. Interestingly, these people usually have the hardest time re-adjusting to their home culture after going back. Integrators are people who completely adopt the identity of the new culture and give up the values and beliefs of their home culture. Culture shock is a very emotional experience for most people and there are many symptoms. A person going through culture shock may display irritability and angry outbursts at times. Many experience a bout of depression or lethargy from time to time. If not managed carefully, this can lead some people to suicide. It is important to recognize these symptoms in newcomers and understand the reasons for these feelings. Question 36. According to the article, what is culture shock?
