实验范文：

It is common to experience culture shock when visiting other countries with different traditions and customs, particularly for an extended period of time.  Some visitors are interested in adapting to foreign cultures and  effectively manage culture shock; some people are not.  There are several reasons why we can better enjoy travelling  with an open mind and develop an appreciation for cultural differences across the world .

As visitors in foreign lands, we are probably in for the feeling of disorientation, insecurity and anxiety in unfamiliary situations. altogether known as culture shock.  This phenomenon is understandable because values, behaviors and social customs we routinely take for granted no longer serve us in different surroundings.  Of course, it takes time to learn a 'do-as-Romans-do' attitude, but it is always advisable to keep an open mind.  We ought not to give in to the temptation to isolate ourselves into the comfort of what is familiar.  Perhaps, all we need is a little more patience to understand the new environment in its historical and social context. In all events, the right thing to do is to observe objectively, and not to judge automatically as if anything different is 'wrong' or 'negative'.

To better appreciate differences culture-wise, it is also important that we learn beforehand enough background information about a country we are ging to.  In case we know close to nothing about that country, it means that we might have no interest in its culture, so why should we visit there in the first place?  For visitors, a little bit of knowledge about a foreign culture tends to be misleading.  But it doesn`t have to be that way.  For instance, making an effort to learn the local language and social customs can increase communication skills and proper behaviors, both being of great help to demonstrate an interest in a different culture as well as integrating with the local community.  In fact, before travelling it pays to learn something of many things about a foreign country's culture and tradition, ranging from the greetings to the clothing to the before-meal ceremonies.

Visiting a foreign country can be a rewarding experience if we are open-minded and knowledge-conscious toward any different culture.  It seems necessary to reduce the negative impact of culture shock so that the entire visit would become pure fun.  After all, when we come across a new environment, we don't expect to experience everything exactly like back home, do we? (Essay created by Jeenn Lee Hsieh)

题目是为什么有些人能学习到很多当地文化而有些人不行，不是intersest

我记得题目一直用的是VISITOR。感觉有比较的意味，所以考试的时候我一直在写的是旅游者学习他国文化的方法，旅游者比其他人具有的优势等等的，然后这篇范文看了一下第二段和第三段两段貌似整体的思路都不一样啊。有没有630的烤鸭来讨论下？

我也参加了630的雅思考试。我直接回答问题，直接写人们有什么途径来学习外国文化。写到原因，我还写了有些人工作忙，条件不允许，丝毫没提到是已经出去的visitor. 郁闷，估计是跑题的严重
