  When you cough or sneeze, you’d better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand.And then, you should say, “Excuse me.”

  This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this.Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth.One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible.If not, they will be passing those germs(细菌)along to everything and everyone they touch.

  If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door.If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through.If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through.

  After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students.Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go along way toward helping students realize hot to be polite and thank others.Once they’ve been told, they’re halfway there.

  When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right.That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the moving stairs.When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter.

  After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways.I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan.In both places, people made efforts to make way for others.On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left.On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter.

Douglas Adams was born in Cambridge in March 1952, educated at Brentwood School, Essex and St John's College, Cambridge where, in 1974 he gained a BA (and later an MA) in English literature.
He was the creator of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy(《银河系漫游指南》), which started life as a BBC Radio 4 series in March 1978. Since then it has been transformed into a series of best-selling novels, a TV series, a record album, a computer game and several stage adaptations.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy's success sent the book straight to Number One in the UK Bestseller List and in 1984 Douglas Adams became the youngest author to be awarded a Golden Pan. He won a further two (a rare feat), and was nominated—though not selected - for the first Best of Young British Novelists awards.
He followed this success with The Restaurant at the End of the Universe (1980); Life, The Universe and Everything (1982); So Long and Thanks for all the Fish (1984); and Mostly Harmless (1992). The first two books in the Hitchhiker series were adapted into a 6-part television series, which was an immediate success when first showed in 1982. Other publications include Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (1987) and Long Dark Tea-time of the Soul (1988). In 1984 Douglas teamed up with John Lloyd and wrote The Meaning of Life and their second huge success, The Deeper Meaning of Life followed in 1990. One of Douglas’s personal favorites was written in 1990 when he teamed up with zoologist Mark Carwardine and wrote Last Chance to See an account of a world-wide search for rare and endangered species of animals.
Douglas sold over 15 million books in the UK, the US and Australia. He was also a best seller in German, Swedish and many other languages.
Douglas Adams died on Friday, May 11, 2001, in Santa Barbara, CA. He will be greatly missed by fans worldwide
