Question

   Politeness or having good manners are both about respecting others and yourself.

   How would you feel if someone：

   . talked to your friend but turned his back to you?

   . pushed you out of the way to get the seat you were about to sit on?

   . let the door slam in your face as you were about to walk through it?

   . shared your things but never shared anything of theirs?

   . never said “please” or “thank you”？

   . didn't pass your phone message to your friend?

   Good manners are about considering the feelings of other people,and being the kind of person that others will like and respect.

   In the “olden days” children were taught about the Golden Rule — Always do to others as you would wish them to do to you if you were in their place.

   This is still a good way to behave nowadays. If you are respectful to others,then you are more likely to be treated with respect by them.

   If you show good manners everywhere you go,then you are more likely to encourage others to behave in the same way towards you.
