“Should I send my boss a birthday present?” “Is it OK to wear a red dress to a wedding?” When Americans are unsure about the most appropriate(适当的)way to behave,they often look for
the answer in Emily Post’s Book of Etiquette. It’s a large book that tells people how to behave
politely in any kind of situation,from business to home to travel.
Emily Post was bom in 1872. She wrote many articles for newspaper about etiquette,and in 1922 she put them together in a book. Ms Post died in 1960, but her book has been reprinted more than 90 times since then. Her daughter,granddaughter,and now her great-granddaughter have all helped to rewrite it.
The book’s advice has been changed a lot since 1922. For example,the section on etiquette for sports once talked about tennis and golf. Now,you’ll also find snowboarding and in-line skating. And the newest edition includes etiquette rules for sending e-mails and using cell phones.
