2．Chengdu has dozens of new millionaires，Asia's biggest building，and fancy new hotels．But for tourists like me，pandas are its top（61）attraction（attract）．
So it was a great honour to be invited backstage at the not-for-profit Panda Base，where ticket money helps pay for research，I（62）was allowed（allow）to get up close to these cute animals at the 600-acre centre．From tomorrow，I will be their UK ambassador．The title will be（63）officially（official） given to me at a ceremony in London．But my connection with pandas goes back（64）tomy days on a TV show in the mid-1980s，（65）whenI was the first Western TV reporter（66）permitted（permit） to film a special unit caring for pandas rescued from starvation in the wild．My ambassadorial duties will include（67）introducing（introduce） British visitors to the 120-plus pandas at Chengdu and others at a research in the misty mountains of Bifengxia．
On my recent visit，I help a lively three-month-old twin that had been rejected by（68）its（it） mother．The nursery team switches him every few（69）days（ day） with his sister so that while one is being bottle-fed，（70）theother is with mum-she never suspects．

1．The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups．Silences may be thoughtful，or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say．A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness，uneasiness，or worry．Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable； therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap（间隙）with conversation．Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs．
Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people，just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do．Therefore，when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops，what may be implied（暗示） is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing．In these cultures，silence is a call for reflection．
Other cultures may use silence in other ways，particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power．For example，Russian，French，and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion．However，Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her．In still another use，persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect，particularly to an elder or a person in authority．
Nurses and other care-geivers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be expericencing．Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient's silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily．A nurse who understands the healing（治愈） value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures．
