Question

while in the peace corps, kristina enjoyed a delicious cambodian dinner that included several entrees. later that evening she was told that one of the entrees was roast dog, the same canine kristina was playing with the day before. at this point kristina became ill and swore she would be a vegetarian as long as she was in cambodia. which statement most applies to kristina's experience?

Answer 1

Answer: She is experiencing culture shock .

Explanation:

What is a culture shock?

A culture shock is a shock that is experienced by an individual when they move to an area which is different to the area where they original live.

A person may become disoriented due to the uncommon things that they may find in that new environment or new country.

It may be the way people live , the food they eat , their values , customs and beliefs that may not be familiar to a foreign individual .

In this case Kristina is probably not used to seeing dog's being eaten and it became a shock to her which may be normal to people of Cambodia as they are used to it .
