If you are visiting England, you will notice that English have many customs and traditions that are different from those in China．
This guide provides help for anyone visiting England for the first time．
Standing in the queue
English people like to form queue．They think it is the fair way to behave．People wait in a queue in shops and at bus stops．People will think you are very rude if you don't join the queue．
Please, Thank You, Excuse Me and Sorry
It is good manners to say “please” and “thank you”．If someone is in your way and you would like them to move, say “excuse me” and they will move．If you bump into someone or you are in their way say “sorry”．They will probably say “sorry”, too, even if it was your mistake．Saying “sorry” does not always mean you think you were wrong．Someone it is just a polite thing to say．
Meeting a new person
When people meet for the first time, the usual custom is to shake hands．The next time you meet that person, you can just say hello．English people don't usually hug or kiss unless they know each other really well．
Talking to people
English people find it difficult to start conversations with strangers．They like to be private so if they are on buses or trains, they usually sit as far away from other people as possible．If you want to start a conversation, the topic that English people are always happy to talk about is the weather．So you need to be able to say “Isn't it warm (sunny/windy/wet/foggy) today?” or “Do you think it's going to rain/clear up?” This is much better than asking about politics, religion or how much people earn!

【題目】根據短文內容，選擇最佳答案。
“No man is an island” is a well-known line from John Donne's Devotion， written more than three hundred years ago. Even now people still agree with him. No one can live a completely isolated life. Without other people， life became empty and sad. We all need friends.
For some of us， though making friends is not difficult， feeling shy， we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.
There are many books about friendship， but Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence (影響) People， written in 1936， is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best-seller. It was later put into 28 languages.
Dale Carnegie's advice (勸告) seems to be simple， but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book.
1)Be friendly and polite.
Always greet with a smile. Begin with “excuse me” or “would you please”， when you want to ask somebody. Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.
2)Go out of your way to be nice.
Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you， but it will make your neighbour feel a lot better.[來源：Z|xx|k.Com]
3)Remember names.
They say that the sweetest music to a person's ears is the sound of his or her own name.
4)Be open-minded.
Try to understand other people's ways and ideas and learn something from them.
5)Listen patiently.
When someone is talking to you， look at him or her， listen carefully and say something when necessary.
