原文及翻譯

At first, Steve had trouble with the language. He said that the only way to really learn the language is to talk to people. Steve talked to a lot of people. He made a lot of mistakes, but people were patient with him and they tried to help him with his Japanese. It wasn't long before Steve felt more comfortable in his new surroundings.

起初，史蒂夫在語言方面遇到了困難。他說，真正學習語言的唯一方法是與人交談。史蒂夫與很多人交談過。他犯了很多錯誤，但人們對他很有耐心，并試圖幫助他學習日語。不久之后，史蒂夫就對新環(huán)境感到更自在了。

You have to be willing to learn new customs and a new language if you move to another country. Steve feels very comfortable in Japan and in Canada now. He is thinking about going to another country now. He thinks that he might like to try and live in Italy.

如果你搬到另一個國家，你必須愿意學習新的習俗和新的語言。史蒂夫現(xiàn)在在日本和加拿大感覺很自在。他現(xiàn)在正在考慮去另一個國家。他認為他可能想嘗試住在意大利。

I'm sure that he would get over his culture shock very fast if he moved there. Moving to a new country can be difficult, but if you are willing to learn, it can be a very rewarding experience.

我相信如果他搬到那里，他會很快克服文化沖擊。搬到一個新的國家可能很困難，但如果你愿意學習，這將是一次非常有益的經(jīng)歷。
