Manners are very important for our daily life. There are many different customs and habits among different countries. We must find out and follow their customs so that they will not think us ill-mannered. Here are examples of the things that a person with good education(教育) does or does not do. A person with good manners is always popular, but it is troublesome to a person with bad matters.
If you visit a Chinese family, you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you will not move before the host says \sit down until the host asks you to take a seat. When a cup of tea is put on the tea table before you or sent to your hand, you should say \hand, or they will think you are ill-mannered. Before entering a house in Japan, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very dirty, this is not done. In a Malay house, a visitor never finishes the food on the table. He leaves a little to show that he has had enough. In England, a visitor always finishes the drink or the food to show that he has enjoyed it. The host will be pleased with that.
You have to give your present in public in the Middle East to show it is not a bribe(贿赂). But it's good manners to give your present in private in Asia. You mustn't give knives in Latin America because it suggests that you want to cut off the relationship(关系). You mustn't give your food or drink to Arabia because it suggests that you think your host isn't offering you enough to eat and drink.

Millions of children in the United States ride safely to and from school on school buses each day. Although school buses are the safest way to take them to school, about 33 school-age children die in school bus-related(与巴士有关的) traffic accidents each year.

Young children are most likely to be hit because they hurry to get on or off the bus, act before they think and have little experience(经验) with traffic. They believe that drivers will see them and will wait for them to cross. And they don't always stay within the bus driver's sight. 36. School buses are ________.
