(Q = Question; A = Answer)
Situation I
Q: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theater, is it rude to move?
A: Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it. Chances are that close sitter doesn't realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance. You undoubtedly aren't the first person he's met who needs enough room. Forgive his bad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.
Situation II
Q: If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something?
A: Consider frequency and urgency. Is this a one-time or an emergency? If so, you don't have to buy anything, but it would be kind if you did. However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.
Situation III
Q: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?
A: No. Try other means.1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down. 2) Lift your finger in a silence motion(动作) and smile. 3) Put on earphones and ignore him.
Situation IV
Q: If I remember my friend's birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?
A: This is the reason why the word belated was invented. "Happy belated birthday!" is short for: "Well, I know I forgot, but then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday."
Situation V
Q: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond(回复) to it?
A: Don't lie. Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it. Why waste a perfectly good lie when the truth will serve? "Yes," you can say if ever asked, "I saw it." No explanation is needed as to why you don't respond.

Maybe it is true that we do not know what we have got until we lose it,but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.
It takes an hour to like someone,and a day to love someone,but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance(保证)that they will love you back. Do not expect love in return;but if it does not,be content it has grown in yours. Do not rely on one's appearance;it can trick you. Do not rely on wealth;even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile,because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream;go where you want to go;be what you want to be,because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You cannot go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,enough trials(考验)to make you strong,enough sorrow to keep you human,enough hope to make you happy. The happiest people do not necessarily have the best of everything;they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry,those who appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you,it probably hurts the other person,too.
When you were born,you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die,you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
1.In this passage,the writer wants to tell us ______.
A. what to do in our life B. where to go with other persons
C. how to treat our life D. how to get on well with other persons
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. If you give someone your love,you are sure to receive love in return.
B. We often don't know what we have lost until it happens someday.
C. It is wise not to rely on anybody because you are likely to be cheated.
D. If it takes you a short time to love someone,you will forget the person.
3.One should ______ the painful past according to the writer.
A. value B. remember C. consider D. forget
