Choosing Dunhuang and Shaoxing at the same time marks the first time that one country has selected two cities in the program.These four cities are major cultural landmarks in their respective countries. Dunhuang was a major stop on the ancient Silk Road and is best known for its nearby Mogao Grottoes, which contain some of the finest examples of Buddhist art from a period extending 1,000 years. Suncheon is an eco-city in South Korea that is a major agricultural and industrial center and also known for Suncheon Bay. Kitakyushu city was formed in 1963 through a combination of five big cities centered around the ancient city of Kokura. It is also where the already delayed 12th meeting of the three countries' culture ministers will be held in 2021. Suncheon and Kitakyushu also won The Cultural City of East Asia in 2022.These four cities are active centers for art and cultural communication. According to the announcement, the four cities will work closely together to promote cultural development and prosperity in East Asia through sustained cultural cooperation and close exchanges, and will jointly support the preparation and hosting of the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Tokyo in 2021 and the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Beijing in 2022.The “The Cultural City of East Asia“ program was created based on an agreement reached at a meeting of ministers of culture from Japan, China, and South Korea in 2022.

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-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patients 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.32What does the author say about silence in conversations?AIt implies anger.BIt promotes friendship.CIt is culture-specific.DIt is content-based.33Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought? A. The Chinese.B. The French. C .The Mexicans. D. The Russians.34What does the author advise nurses to do about silence?ALet it continue as the patient pleases.BBreak it while treating patients. CEvaluate its harm to patients.DMake use of its healing effects.35What may be the best title for the text?ASound and SilenceBWhat It Means to Be SilentCSilence to Native AmericansDSpeech Is Silver; Silence Is Gold第二节共 5 小题；每题 2 分，总分值 10 分根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项No matter what language we are learning, we would all love to speak more confidently.
