Etiquette, etiquette and politeness are rich and varied, but each has its own regularity.

Since ancient times, there has been a clear statement that "a word is to prosper the country and a word is to defeat the country." Speaking is indeed an art, as the saying goes, "a good word warms the winter for three months, and a bad word warms the cold in June." As the saying goes, "people who can talk make people laugh, and people who can't talk make people jump." In daily verbal communication, although everyone is not required to be good at words, at least we should be appropriate, make judgments according to different environments and objects, and master the necessary ways and methods of conversation. If a student knows both books and manners, and his knowledge level and moral level are seriously out of harmony, it is impossible for him to become an excellent talent. An excellent talent should not only have high-level professional knowledge, but also have good moral quality and etiquette. Etiquette is the expression of good moral cultivation and one of the important ways to cultivate good moral quality, which needs to be reflected in a polite way. Although the research and education of etiquette have developed in China, especially the combination of occupation and etiquette has become the general trend. However, etiquette education has not attracted enough attention in colleges and universities, and most colleges and universities have not yet set up etiquette. Let's talk about the basic etiquette of visiting first. Most people in China are hospitable. It is such a delight to have friends coming so far. For visitors, whether they are booked or not, the first thing is the basic etiquette of visiting guests. Being a guest has different situations: visiting for the first time, visiting old friends, being invited to an appointment, asking for help, etc. So the manners are slightly different. However, no matter what the situation, as a guest, we should think of the host. When the guest is at home, it will bring less inconvenience to the host, and there are some roughly the same etiquette to follow. (1) Pay attention to the choice of time. Generally speaking, when you visit someone, you should choose a good time in advance. It is not appropriate to choose busy farming or three meals, and it is not too late at night. Holidays and weekends are good times to visit, but if you don't have an appointment, don't rush. The host usually has other plans at these times. It is most polite to make an appointment in advance. Try not to be an uninvited guest and come uninvited. For scheduled visits, both hosts and guests should be punctual, keep their appointments and keep their promises. Guests should arrive on time or a little earlier. If you can't keep the appointment due to special circumstances, you should try to inform the other party. It is very impolite to cancel the appointment silently. (2) Pay attention to the choice of clothes. A general visit is neat, simple and generous, and does not need to be too gorgeous. It is disrespectful to the host not to trim the margins. Celebrating a happy event must be taken seriously. (3) Knock at the door or ring the doorbell. Knocking on the door should have a sense of rhythm, not light or heavy, not urgent or slow, and it is advisable to knock two or three times. Don't break into an unlocked or open door. It is impolite to surprise the host. It's best to wait for the person to visit to enter the room before taking a seat. If you need to wait a long time, you can sit down and talk to the receptionist or read some books such as newspapers and magazines. When the visitor comes, he should stand up and say hello. No matter how urgent the matter is and how tight the visit time is, you can only greet each other at the door, don't talk about the topic, and talk about it after entering the room, otherwise it will leave an immature impression on the other party. Those who want to wear slippers should change at the door and say hello to their families. It is impolite not to say hello. (4) Thank the host for his warm hospitality. When the host provides tea, candy and other snacks, he should get up or lean over to take it and say "thank you". If he offers cigarettes, he should politely refuse. (5) In the process of conversation, we should pay attention to the etiquette and skills of conversation, keep the conversation short and say less negative and boring words. Be good at listening, respond positively and don't interrupt others' conversation at will. Guests should not look around the host's house. Don't walk into the master's bedroom unless invited by the master. (6) Grasp the best time to leave. General visit, the time should not be too long, nor should it be rushed. Generally, half an hour to an hour is appropriate. If it is a business or official visit, the length of time can be decided according to needs. It is better for guests to leave after the conversation with the host has reached a climax, or when a new guest comes, if the host feels tired during the conversation or his family reminds him that he has something urgent to do, it is more appropriate to leave at an appropriate time. When you leave, you should thank your host and family for their hospitality. If the host family has elders, you should leave them. To sum up, as a guest, the basic etiquette should be summarized as follows: make an appointment in advance, don't be an uninvited guest; Come as scheduled, don't be a guest who stood me up; Be polite and don't be a rude guest; Dress neatly and don't be a slovenly guest; Dignified and polite, don't be a vulgar guest; Leave at the right time and don't be a difficult guest. There are still many places in social etiquette that we need to learn. We should constantly improve ourselves and enrich ourselves. On the Etiquette Cultivation of College Students
