[06:21.99]3a Read the article. Underline the things that annoy people. Circle what people do when annoying things happen.
[06:45.71]I can’t stand it!
[06:49.23]We asked some people what annoyed them.
[06:52.89]Here’s what the said:
[06:54.46]I don’t like waiting in line when a shop assistant has a long telephone conversation.
[07:01.90]When that happens, I usually say, “Would you mind helping me?”
[07:07.18]And I don’t like it when stop assistants follow me around.
[07:11.20]Then I say, “Could you please not follow me around?”
[07:15.85]I’ll ask you if need some help
[07:18.73]Usually the shop assistants say they are sorry, but sometimes they get mad.
[07:24.58]If that happens, I won’t go back to that store again.
[07:28.99]I get annoyed when someone talks to me while I’m reading.
[07:33.75]This happens to me all the time in the school library.
[07:36.99]When it happens, I usually talk to the person because I want to be polite.
[07:42.94]But because I’m Polite, people don’t know I’m annoyed.
[07:47.38]So they do the same thing again.
[07:49.24]Perhaps in the future I should try not to be so polite.
[07:54.20]Would you mind keeping your voice down?
[08:03.92]If you spend some time in an English-speaking country, you might hear the term'etiqutette'.
[08:11.28]It means normal and polite social behavior.
[08:14.94]This may seem like a difficult word at first, but it can be very useful to understand.
[08:21.60]Etiquette is not the same in every culture, or in every situation.
[08:27.17]For example, standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries.
[08:34.53]However, if you do this in Eu-rope, some people might feel uncomfortable.
[08:39.99]Even in China, we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations.
[08:45.84]Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed.
[08:54.18]For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a mu-seum, or a movie theater is impolite.
[09:03.43]Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice down in public places.
[09:10.19]In fact, we should also take care not to cough or sneeze loudly in public if possible.
[09:16.93]If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette, we may give them some sugges-tions politely.
[09:23.88]Perhaps one of the most polite ways is to ask someone, Would you mind ding this or would you mind not doing that.
[09:32.81]For example, if someone cuts in front of you in a line, you could ask them, sorry, would you mind joining the line?
[09:40.52]If someone is smoking on the bus, we could ask, Excuse me, could you please put out that cigarette?
[09:45.24]people don't usually like to be criticized, so we have to be careful how we do this.
[09:52.00]Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world!
[10:00.26]For example, dropping litter is almost never allowed.
[10:04.70]If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask them, Would you mind picking it up?
