题目内容
5.When I came to Cincinnati as an au pair (家庭打工留学生),a lot of things there were different from what I knew.My host family lived in a huge house I could only describe as a"castle".In Germany I had lived in a small apartment together with my mom.Soon I found out that the"castle"was actually rather small in our neighborhood.Everybody there was very friendly and polite.They greeted you when they were walking by at least 3feet away from you.They must not have seen a German au pair before,for most people I met asked me all kinds of questions about Germany.I enjoyed answering their various strange questions.I made a lot of friends and I started to hang out with them.
Of course,there were a number of new things,and it took me the whole year to find them all out.I never got homesick.Perhaps it was because I did not have too many negative experiences and felt loved and welcomed there.
However,I had undergone some painful experience back in Germany.I was frustrated by the way people would run me over and not even say"Sorry".Taking up my studies at the TU-Dresden,I felt lonely.Everybody here seemed to be withdrawn(离群的) and I missed everything I had in Cincinnati.Germany was so"cold".I found it so much harder to make new friends.I also flew back to Cincinnati several times for long periods.I felt that without those visits I was not able to make it.
Now I am over this German culture shock.It almost took me an entire year.I am still going back and forward between Dresden and Cincinnati four times a year.
