What are magic words? Words like “thank you”，“please” and “sorry” can work wonders in our daily life. These polite expressions are used every day in America—among strangers,between friends or with family. 1.People with good manners always communicate with others well by using these magic words.

What should you do when you receive a gift for your birthday? 2. 你最好坐下来写一封感谢信。

3. The words “thank you” are very important and used very often. We say them when someone hands us a letter,passes us a book,offers us a drink,or lends us an umbrella.

“Please” is another important word,but many people forget to use it. It is not polite to ask someone for help without saying “please”. 4. We are supposed to use it when we ask for something too. It may be a book,a pen,or more milk. It may be in the classroom,at home,or at the bus stop. We can use “please” to make a request pleasant.

5. 我们也应该学会说“对不起”。

If we have hurt someone's feeling,we will have to say “sorry”. When we have told a lie and regret it,the same word should be used. Sometimes we have forgotten something or broken a promise,so we need to explain with the word as a beginning. “Sorry” is such a word that can make people forget wrongs.

^uThank you!Please!Sorry!^,?—these words are simple but useful. Man said them long ago. We use them now. So will our kids.
