待人接物之禮儀 生活工作太忙碌,爸爸媽媽們不一定有時間關注孩子的禮儀教養,不過,隻要注意將這25條教給孩子就行啦。 Manner 1 When asking for something, say "Please." 問別人話的時候先說“請”。 Manner 2 When receiving something, say "Thank you." 別人給了自己什麽東西,要說“謝謝”。 Manner 3 Do not interrupt grown-ups who are speaking with each other unless there is an emergency。 不要打斷大人們的談話,除非真的有急事。 Manner 4 If you do need to get somebody's attention right away, the phrase "excuse me" is the most polite way for you to enter the conversation。 如果真的需要跟某人說話,最好先說一句“打擾了”。 Manner 5 When you have any doubt about doing something, ask permission first. It can save you from many hours of grief later。 如果在做一件事前拿不定主意,先去征求父母的意見和許可。 Manner 6 The world is not interested in what you dislike. Keep negative opinions to yourself, or between you and your friends, and out of earshot of adults。 別人不關心你討厭什麽,所以一些批評言論最好隻是跟朋友們隨便說說,不要傳得人盡皆知。 Manner 7 Do not comment on other people's physical characteristics unless, of course, it's to compliment them, which is always welcome。 不要對別人品頭論足,當然稱讚他人的外表是必要的。 Manner 8 When people ask you how you are, tell them and then ask them how they are。 當別人向你問好時,記得禮貌作答,並且也問候他們。 Manner #9 When you have spent time at your friend's house, remember to thank his or her parents for having you over and for the good time you had。 在朋友家做客時要向朋友的父母表達感謝。 Manner 10 Knock on closed doors -- and wait to see if there's a response -- before entering。 進房間前先敲門。 Manner 11 When you make a phone call, introduce yourself first and then ask if you can speak with the person you are calling。 打電話時先講明自己是誰,然後再找自己想要找的人。而不是一開口就問XXX在嗎。 Manner 12 Be appreciative and say "thank you" for any gift you receive. In the age of e-mail, a handwritten thank-you note can have a powerful effect。 收到禮物後要表達感謝,手寫的感謝信比發電子郵件要好。 Manner 13 Never use foul language in front of adults. Grown-ups already know all those words, and they find them boring and unpleasant。 別在大人麵前說髒話,大人們對髒話了如指掌,並且他們已經厭倦那些詞語了。 Manner 14 Don't call people mean names。 不要對人口出惡言。 Manner 15 Do not make fun of anyone for any reason. Teasing shows others you are weak, and ganging up on someone else is cruel。 任何情況下都不要嘲笑別人,這隻會顯示出你自己的軟弱,對被嘲笑的人來說也是件殘酷的事。 Manner 16 Even if a play or an assembly is boring, sit through it quietly and pretend that you are interested. The performers and presenters are doing their best。 看演出時就算再無聊也要保持安靜,台上演出的人是付出了實實在在的努力的。 Manner 17 If you bump into somebody, immediately say "Excuse me." 撞到人的時候要立刻說抱歉。 Manner 18 Cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze, and don't pick your nose in public。 咳嗽或者打噴嚏的時候要遮住嘴,並且公開場合不要摳鼻孔。 Manner 19 As you walk through a door, look to see if you can hold it open for someone else。 進出一扇門的時候記得停一小會,幫後麵的人把門開著。 Manner 20 If you come across a parent, a teacher, or a neighbor working on something, ask if you can help. If they say "yes," do so -- you may learn something new。 看到父母、老師或者鄰居在忙什麽的時候,問一句能不能幫手。幫忙的過程中你也會學到一點半點東西。 Manner 21 When an adult asks you for a favor, do it without grumbling and with a smile。 當大人請你幫忙做什麽事的時候,別抱怨,記得帶著微笑去完成。 Manner 22 When someone helps you, say "thank you." That person will likely want to help you again。 別人幫了你的忙,記得說謝謝,這樣他們下次也會樂意幫助你。 Manner 23 Use eating utensils properly. If you are unsure how to do so, ask your parents to teach you or watch what adults do。 正確使用餐具。不知道怎麽用的時候就問父母,或者觀察其他大人是怎麽使用的。 Manner 24 Keep a napkin on your lap; use it to wipe your mouth when necessary。 把餐巾放在大腿上,需要的時候拿來擦嘴。 Manner 25 Don't reach for things at the table; ask to have them passed。 不要伸手去拿桌子上離自己比較遠的東西,請旁邊的人幫你傳過來。
