Nowadays in a globalized world people from all over the world emerge to live cordially with each other cultures. Due to we have to deal with culture shocks, specially because creates a melt pot since each person brings his customs to enrich the culture of this country, but sometimes this experience takes difficulties and anxiety between people, consequently appears symptoms such an apathy, and exclusion that may be characterized by behavioral disorders, such as xenophobia which can be manifested by the affected individual.

Firstly, Culture shock is a state of incomprehension, anxiety, disorientation and suffering as an individual suddenly exposed to a social or cultural environment radically different from his own. A good example of this situation It happens frequently for the international students and immigrants where cultural conflicts become visible not only when students come to school and learn new ways of living there, also to get adapted from different beliefs and religion thoughts of the society which are challenged by intellectual interested for deeper understandings. At the time the country where they are living feels a rejection to new changes expressed by xenophobia and sometime with violence acts that shows the ignorance of the people to expand their possibilities and thoughts.

Despite that, cultural mixes in countries brings benefits to the society in order to know better some aspect of other cultures that probably sometime we haven’t hear or be familiar with, that provide to the people the opportunity to don’t believe in external forces judgments , and excluding them to the community because they are from somewhere. In addition to that, this experience brings a direct connection with all over the world and may be very persuasive and reasonable to many people according to understand that the world is not a standard practice.

To sum up, the main reason that people experience cultural shock in other countries is basically because citizens practiced a particular culture as they are basis on, being so strongly attached to their own culture. Due to they sometimes forget to be respectful and open to know relevant aspects from different societies, generating ethnocentrism in their countries , that´s why is significant to improve international exchanges between countries in order to produce an interconnected societies .

Strategies to be a better student in a reading and listening exercises

Pre reading strategies
The first strategy that I choose is to Brainstorming, which consist to examine the title of the selection you are about to read, then you list all the information that comes to mind about this title, using these pieces of information to recall and understand the material also as a relevant knowledge to reframe or reorder what you know, or to note what you disagree with, for further research.

The second strategy is about to preview the vocabulary , which means to find or look for the unfamiliar words, because need to be taught to you before reading so that new words, background information, and comprehension can improve together. Then try to list all words in the assignment that may be important for you to understand. Arrange words to show the relationships to the learning task. Add words you probably understand to connect relationships between what is known and the unknown.

While reading strategy

Firstly you can guess some word meanings by using context clues, word formation clues or cognates scanning and skimming for specific pieces of information, which will be helping you to predicting text content, then you have to identify the topic sentences that contain the main idea of the paragraph using visual and sensory images such as graphic organizers to identify the main idea or themes of a text.

Secondly is significant to recognizing lexical clues as a strategy because will be facilitate you to distinguish between fact and opinion in a text, then identify connecting ideas via connectors, also is useful to s rereading, to repair comprehension when it breaks down so you will be pay, attention to the grammatical function of unknown words or any context in the text.

English Language

The English language too has come to play a leading role in international communication. Thus, many people whose native language is not English have studied English and become more conversant with English than with their own languages( differrent countries). This is especially true with the leaders of the people to whom English is a foreign language. As a result, the English language is used by them not only in the administration of their countries but also in all their institutions of higher learning.

English is the primary language in Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Australia (Australian English), the Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, Belize (Belizean Kriol), the British Indian Ocean Territory, the British Virgin Islands, Canada (Canadian English), the Cayman Islands, the Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Grenada, Guam, Guernsey (Channel Island English), Guyana, Ireland (Hiberno-English), Isle of Man (Manx English), Jamaica (Jamaican English), Jersey, Montserrat, Nauru, New Zealand (New Zealand English), Pitcairn Islands, Saint Helena, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Singapore, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, the Turks and Caicos Islands, the United Kingdom, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the United States.

In many other countries, where English is not the most spoken language, it is an official language; these countries include Botswana, Cameroon, Dominica, Fiji, the Federated States of Micronesia, Ghana, Gambia, India, Kenya, Kiribati, Lesotho, Liberia, Madagascar, Malta, the Marshall Islands, Mauritius, Namibia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palau, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Rwanda, the Solomon Islands, Saint Lucia, Samoa, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Sri Lanka, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. It is also one of the 11 official languages that are given equal status in South Africa (South African English).

English is also the official language in current dependent territories of Australia (Norfolk Island, Christmas Island and Cocos Island) and of the United States (Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa and Puerto Rico),[29] and in the former British colony of Hong Kong.

Countries and things that have been influence and contribute International English

The human race is divided by a multiplicity of languages, many of which have come to play an important part in the affairs of the world.So the English language too has come to play a leading role in international communication. Thus, many people whose native language is not English have studied English and become more conversant with English than with their own languages. This is especially true with the leaders of the people to whom English is a foreign language. As a result, the English language is used by them not only in the administration of their countries but also in all their institutions of higher learning.

From the beginning the languagethat have been influenced english involve half Greek and half Latin or french words, depending oneach point of view ,as a social , cultural , economic aspect or just depending on the relathionship between countries and their contribution that enriches the language with new idioms or special words that means something in other languages but doesnt have meaning or translation in english . Even thougth The Largest number of Teutonic words are Anglo-Saxon in origin followed by Scandinavian then by Dutch and German. Low German has contributed more loanwords to English than High German.
Examples:\
1. Regarding the title of the poem "gently" is certainly Romance in origin and I don't know about "night", which does exist in German but quite close to it's Latin origin, as well. Perhaps it's Indo-European since I don't have time to check.
2.A Celtic element also exists in English which is often overlooked. " Cloak and gown" are early loans from Gaulish clocca and gunna. "Bother" is an early loan from Old Irish. "Brat" and "Fiddle" aslo appear to have an Irish origin, compare Middle Irish brata "a child's blanket" and fid "wood". Welsh has given us "penguin and daffodil"; Cornish "pesky, pixie and wrass (a type of fish)". "Uncanny and raid" are Scottish Gaelic. "Whiskey and galore" could be either Scotch or Irish. Linguist Mario Pei once said that the Celtic languages have given English many of its most colorful words.
