2. Who taught you to be polite?
My mom. She told me to be polite when I was young. I'm sure that sometimes, I'm rude or outspoken, but I try to have a good manner. As an idealist, I know that everyone is different, and there are many reasons why people behave the way they do.
我母親。我小的時候她教我如何禮貌待人。我知道有時候我有些無禮或者失言,但我嘗試著有禮貌。作為一個理想主義者,我知道每人都不同,我理解人們的表現(xiàn)都有各自的原因。
3. Do you think people should be polite?
(Why?) Having polite manners is a huge part of the society because a lot of people do not have good manners and it could ruin a relationship.
