Speaking of manners, I think of a story. Once, Comrade Lenin went downstairs, and in the narrow corridor of the stairs, he met a female worker carrying a basin of water downstairs. When the female worker saw that it was Lenin, she had to go back to make way. Lenin stopped her and said, "No, you're already halfway with your things, and now I'm empty-handed. Please go first! " He said the word "please" loudly and kindly. Then he clung to the wall and let the women go upstairs before he went downstairs. Isn't this also a sign of politeness?

I don't want to give too many examples of great men here, because it's easy to give people an illusion: if we think that politeness is only for great men and celebrities, then we don't have to feel guilty for our more or less uncivilized words and deeds; Or think that even if we practice the requirements of civilization, we can't become great men and celebrities. We need not only moral figures, but also a group of moral people.

The civilization degree of a society can reflect the civilization degree of a society and a country. A person's failure to observe social civilization will have a small impact on his own image and a big impact on the national reputation. During the Qing Dynasty, Minister Li Hongzhang went to Russia. In a public occasion, his bad habits broke out and he spat everywhere, which was greatly exaggerated and ridiculed by foreign journalists and humiliated China people.

Public * * * civilization is the embodiment of social consciousness, and public * * * civilization is based on the level of personal moral cultivation. Imagine if someone doesn't pay attention to their own civilization.
