The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be blank and empty when the individual has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also indicate stubbornness and resistance, apprehension, or discomfort. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore, attempts may be made to fill every gap with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and see it as essential to understanding a person’s needs. 
Many American Indians have this latter view of silence, as do some traditional Chinese and Japanese persons. Therefore, when one of these persons is speaking and suddenly stops, what may be implied is that the person wants the nurse to consider the content of what has been said before continuing. 
Other cultures may use silence in yet other ways. For example, English and Arabic persons use silence for privacy, whereas Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to indicate agreement between parties. Some persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly toward an elder. Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than showing the disrespect of disagreement.
Nurses need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence so that personal anxiety does not promote the silence to be interrupted prematurely or to be nontherapeutic. A nurse who understands the therapeutic value of silence can use this understanding to enhance the care of clients from other cultures.

A. It implies anger
B. It promotes friendship
C. It is culture-specific
D. It is content-based
Question 12: Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?
A. The Japanese
B. The French
C. The Mexicans
D. The Russians
Question 13: What does the author advise nurses to do about silence?
A. Let it continue as the patient pleases
B. Break it while treating patients
C. Evaluate its harm to patients
D. Make use of its healing effects

A. necessary

There are many ways of communicating without using speech. Signals, signs, symbols and gestures may be found in every known culture. The basic function of a signal is to impinge upon the environment in such a way that it attracts attention, as, for example, the dots and dashes of telegraph circuit. Coded to refer to speech, the potential for communication is very great. While less adaptable to the codification of words, sings contain greater meaning in and of themselves. A top sign or a barber pole conveys meaning quickly and conveniently. Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs because of their intricate relationship with the receiver’s cultural perceptions. In some cultures, applauding in a theater provides performers with an auditory symbol of approval. Gestures such as waving and handshaking also communicate certain cultural messages. 
Although signals, signs, symbols and gestures are very useful, they do have a major disadvantage. They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly adjacent to the receiver. As a result, means of communication intended to be used for long distances and extended periods are based upon speech. Radio, television and the telephone are only a few of such means.

A. more difficult to describe than forms of communication
B. an interruption in the environment	
C. less able to to be adapted to refer to speech
D. none of these
Question 32: Applauding was cited as an example of ______.
A. a signal
B. a sign
C. a symbol
D. a gesture
Question 33: It may be concluded from the passage that ______.
A. symbols are very easy to define and interpret
B. only some cultures have signals, signs and symbols
C. waving and handshaking are not related to culture
D. signs, signals, symbol and gestures are forms of communication
Question 34: The underlined word “intricate” could best replaced by ______.
A. inefficient
B. historical 
C. feasible
D. complicated
Question 35: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Means of communications
B. Gestural communication
C. Signs and signals
D. Speech variations
