    Take forms of address (称呼)for example. The average English person—    4    he happens to work in a hotel or department store —would rather die than call a stranger “Sir” or “Madam”. Yet in some European countries this is the most basic of common address. Our    5  “you” for everyone may appear more democratic, but it means that we are forced to seek out complicated ways to express    6   . I am all for returning to the use of “thee” and “thou”(Thee and thou are old-fashioned poetic words for “you” “you” would be    7    for strangers and professional relationships.

The British love to think of themselves as polite, and everyone knows how fond they are of their “pleases” and “thank yous”. Even the simplest business such as buying a train ticket requires 1    seven or eight of these. Another    2    of our good manners is the queue. Newcomers to Britain could be forgiven for thinking that queuing rather than football was the    3    national sport. Finally, of course, motorists generally stop at crossings. But does all this mean that the British should consider themselves more polite than their European neighbors? I think not.
