The zoo also pays much attention(关注)to her health, including daily blood pressure(血压) checks."We spend so much time together, and she is like a family member to me," said Zhang Naicheng,who has looked after her for 28 years. In recent years, Zhang has spent most of his nights staying inXin Xing's panda house in case she needs him."It's hard work, but I have fun looking after the panda," he said.

In the shows, mukbangers eat food and sometimes talk to their viewers.Mukbang started in South Korea in around 2010 and has spread(传播) all over the world. Why did mukbang first appear in this country? According to Jeff Yang, an Asian-American culture expert,eating on one's own can be hard in a country like South Korea because it has the culture of eating together. But eating alone is quite common in the country. Watching mukbang can be a way to have someone to eat with. It lets people connect(链接) with others even though(尽管) they are at home alone. This is one of the reasons why many people around the world like watching mukbang.However, mukbang has its dark sides. The way mukbangers eat food in some shows isn't healthy.This leads to bad habits and brings serious health problems. To draw people's attention, some mukbangers prepare a lot of food in front of the camera. But they throw away much food secretly during the show or throw up food after the show to make viewers believe they have eaten up everything. These mukbangers waste a lot of food.Such shows have been criticized(批评) by many people. Food waste is a serious problem around the world, and stopping food waste has special meaning for our country. Thus, our country has done a lot of things to solve the problem and asked short-video platforms, such as TikTok and Kuaishou, to regulate(管理) their eating shows.48.
