Social customs and ways of behaving change. Things which were considered impolite
many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite
behaviour for a man to smoke on street. No man who thought of himself by smoking
when a lady was in a room.
Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right
of a woman in your country? Or doesn't it matter? Should you use both hands when
you are eating? Should leave one in your lap,or on the table?
The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a
large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people
shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will
open a door for a wonman or offer their seat to a woman , and so will most Americans.
Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is , if a dinner
invitation is for 7 o'clock , the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up
to explain his delay.
The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that
might make other people feel uncomfortable-----especially if they are your guests.
When the food was served , one of the guests strated to eat his peas with a knife . The
other guests were amused or shocked , but the host calmly picked up his knife and
began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel
foolish or uncomfortable.
one has accepted a dinner invitation ,what should he do if he is tobe late for the
dinner?
should find an excuse
should adk for excuse.
should say sorry
should telephone to explain his being late.
