36. In the regression period, you tend to speak your native language rather than the language of the host country. __36__

本题考察对“regression period”中行为表现的理解。前句提到在回归期，人们更倾向于使用母语而非东道国语言。后句应解释原因，可从思乡情绪、文化归属感或避免压力等角度展开。例如： “This is because you may feel homesick and want to connect with people who share your cultural background.” 此句明确指出，使用母语是因思乡及对文化共鸣的需求，与前文“speak your native language”形成因果关系，逻辑连贯。 答案：This is because you may feel homesick and want to connect with people who share your cultural background. （其他合理答案亦可，需体现“使用母语”的原因或表现。）
