Question

American people like to say “ Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so, too. It is a very good habit(習慣).

You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table, when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.

“Excuse me” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you,

you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite to break others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you begin to cough or make any noise before others.

【解析】

試題分析：美國人喜歡說“謝謝你”當其他人幫助他們或者向他們說贊揚。許多國家的人也這樣做。這是一個非常好的習慣。你應該說“謝謝你”當有人遞給你鹽時，當有人在你之前為你打開門，當有人說你的工作做得好，或你買了好東西，或者你所居住的城市非常美麗。“謝謝你”不僅僅是朋友之間，而且父母與子女之間，兄弟姐妹。“對不起”是一個短短的一句話。你知道有人想走過去，不能不碰到你。打斷別人的講話這是不禮貌。如果你想跟他們其中的一個，說“對不起”，再開始說話。當你開始咳嗽或作出任何噪音之前等等，你也應該這么做。讓我們學會說“謝謝”、“對不起”。
