Most people don't notice I'm polite,which is the point. I am big and look less energetic. Still,every year or so,someone takes me aside and says,wYou actually are polite,aren’t you?” I'm always thrilled. They noticed. That's the thing. When we talk about politeness,we usually think of please; thank you; I like your hat; etc. AW we need to do is to hear,not to notice.

When I was in high school,I read etiquette manuals (手册) . No one noticed my politeness except for one kid. He yelled at me about it. aIt's strange that you are always so polite,” he said. I took that as praise and made a note to hide my politeness further. Real politeness,I reasoned,was invisible(看不见的) . It adapted itself to the situation.

Politeness leaves doors open. V ve met so many people whom,if I had trusted my first impressions,I would never have wanted to meet again. Yet many of them are now great friends. One of those people is my wife. On our first date,she told me at length that she had an operation to remove a cyst (瘤) from her body. This is a cyst with hair and teeth. Of course,it killed the chemistry. But when I walked her home,I told her I'd had a great time. We talked a little after that. I kept everything pleasant and brief. Much later,I learned that she’d been having a very bad day in a very bad year.

People silently suffer from all kinds of terrible things. The good thing about politeness is you can regard these people exactly the same and wait to see what happens. You don't have to have an opinion. You don't need to make a judgment.

Last week,my two-year-old son,Abraham met a foreign woman in the playground. Out of curiosity,I suppose,he asked, “What's your name?” The woman told him. Then he put out his little hand and said, “Nice to meet you!” Everyone laughed and he smiled. He shared with her his firmest handshake,like I taught him.

Empathy Last year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people,among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. 51 Today,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.

Jennifer Freed,a co-director of a teen program,has another explanation. Turn on the TV,and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting,competing,and generally treating one another with no respect. 52 There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature.

53 Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides,empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness,anxiety,and fear.

Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact,Freed says,many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. 54 “Academicsareimpor- tant. But if you don't have emotionaK情感的) intelligence,you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life ,” she says.

What's the best way to up your EQ(情商) ？

For starters,let down your guard and really listen to others. 55 To really develop empathy,youM better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership,have a “sharing circle” with your family,or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

A. Everyone is different,and levels of empathy differ from person to person.

B. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,the researchers said.

C. “One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking”’Freed says.

D. Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.

E. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else —both what they think and how they feel.

F. Good social skills —including empathy are a kind of emotional intelligencethat will help you succeed in many areas of life.
