Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.
'Manners make a man' is a true saying. By
manners we mean proper and respectful
behaviour towards all with whom we come
in contact.
Good manners come naturally to a person
who is brought up in a cultured family.
Good manners are, therefore, the sign that
a certain person has been brought up on
the right lines.
Good manners are very necessary for
progress in life. They help you to win the
favour and confidence of others. They are
a sure passport to success in life. An illmannered
person, on the other hand, is
disliked by everyone and has no chance of
success in any walk of life he joins.
Good manners endear us to others. A polite
answer turns away anger and a kind word
uttered in time saves a man from many
troubles. It is politeness which succeeds
while ability fails. Even a good action will
lose its value if the person doing favour
utters impolite words.
Good manners are learnt early in life. A
child born in a cultured family will learn to
be respectful to others because he will see
his elders behaving gently. A child born in
an uncultured family will be disrespectful
because he sees his elders behaving badly
towards others. A child will learn whatever
he is taught. So a little carelessness on the
part of the parents is likely to spoil him and
it will be difficult to reform him afterwards.
A person should be polite to strangers so
that they might have a good opinion about
the person. While travelling one should
observe the rules of the road. You should
be kind and courteous to old men and
ladies. While boarding a bus or a train you
should see that you do not push your way
in but take your turn. It is bad manners to
break the queue or push oneself in without
ones turn. 'Live and let others live' should be the
motto of our life.
