Manners are unwritten rules of people’s behaviors. Manners shows respect for others. We don’t want to have dinner with people who eat loudly or talk with their mouth full of food. We cannot enjoy a movie when the children sitting behind us are kicking the seats all the time. Those will make us feel terrible. With good manners, the world will become a more pleasant place to live, so manners are important for everyone.
Good Manners at Home
· Speak politely to your parents and siblings (兄弟姐妹) by using polite words like “Thank you,” “Please,” and “Sorry.”
· Show good table manners with actions like clearing the table after finishing a meal.
·Help with the household chores like washing dishes, cleaning the house, or doing the laundry.
·Remember to greet your parents and siblings in the morning and after coming back home, and to say your goodbyes before leaving.
Good Manners at School
·Raise your hands when you want to ask or answer a question. Talk to your teachers with polite language.
·Use the magic words: “Thank you,” “Please,” “I’m sorry,” “Excuse me,” and “Could you please...?”

【推荐2】If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are necessary. Even now some people get most of their news from TV or radio. Many buy a newspaper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people, reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation(代) to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives—the big political stories, the reports of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more reports of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic engineering. In the future, I think there will be more reports of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do—as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operate and what our feelings really are.
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted (传递) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m pretty sure how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read—sports and international news, etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media. They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw (预料) that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screens or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.
1. What does the underlined phrase “feed off ”in the last paragraph mean?| A．Compete with. | B．Depend on. |
| C．Fight with. | D．Kill off. |
| A．Newspapers will win the competition among the different media. |
| B．Newspapers will stay with us together, with other media. |
| C．Television will take the place of newspapers. |
| D．The writer believes some media will die out. |
| A．The Best Way to Get News | B．The Changes of Media |
