Every morning, the newspaper chief editor (主编) holds a meeting with the reporters. They discuss the main events of the day. 【1】

As soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. 【2】

Checking information is very important. They go to the newspaper’s own library to look up any information that they need. At the same time, the picture editor decides which photographs will be used.

【3】 Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible. Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor.

The chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. 【4】 Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes.

Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the time for printing the newspaper has come. This is done on fast-moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered (发送) by truck, plane or rail. Speed is important. 【5】

My close friend seldom(很少)says “please”. She will say “Can you get me that bag? ”or “Move it over here! ”I have told her a lot of times that it is polite to use “please” and “thank you”, but she hardly remembers. I feel that she is ordering(命令)me around without “please”, and I always get annoyed.

We have been close friends for over 10 years, this has always been there. It seems that I can’t stand it any more. What should I do? Can you help me?

Sincerely,

Linda

Dear Linda,

When your friend does not use polite words, it seems that she is ordering you to do something. So you have every right(权利)to hate her behaviors.

Ask her why she doesn’t use “please” and “thank you”. Explain to her that it makes you uncomfortable. Also, you don’t want to do anything for her because she doesn’t seem kind or pleasant when she asks you to.

Your friend was probably never taught how to use “please” and “thank you” in normal conversation. So you can try to teach her that. Remember that it is difficult to find another close friend if you lose one.

Yours,

Dr. Manners
