Society has always advocated civility and politeness. However, there are still many uncivilized people and phenomena. Since ancient times, there have been some people who pay great attention to civilization. Let's read their stories together and remind ourselves to be civilized people!

First, Ceng Zi avoided the seat.

? Ceng Zi quit? From the Book of Filial Piety, which is a very famous story. Ceng Zi is a disciple of Confucius. Once he sat next to Confucius, who asked him. In the past, the king of sages, whose virtue was supreme, educated people all over the world with the theory of essence and metaphysics, so that people could live in harmony. There is no disagreement between the king and his deputies. Do you know what they are? Hearing this, Ceng Zi understood that Confucius wanted to show him the most profound truth, so he immediately stood up from the mat where he was sitting, walked outside the mat, and respectfully replied, I'm not smart enough. How can I know? Please ask the teacher to teach me these truths. ?

Here it is. Avoid seats? This is very polite behavior. When Ceng Zi heard that the teacher was going to teach him, he stood up and went to the mat to ask the teacher for advice to show his respect for the teacher. Ceng Zi's polite stories are told by later generations, and many people learn from him.

Second, it snows at the city gate.

Shi Yang (1053~ 1 135) was a gifted scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty and a musician in Nanjianfu (now Fujian). After winning the Jinshi, he gave up being an official and continued his studies.

Cheng Hao (1032~ 1085) and Cheng Yi (1033 ~107) were famous scholars, philosophers and educators at that time. They are all founders of Neo-Confucianism in the Northern Song Dynasty. Their theory was inherited by Zhu in the Southern Song Dynasty and was called the School. Shi Yang admired Cheng Cheng's knowledge and went to the school in Hao Cheng to learn from his teacher. Four years later, Cheng Hao died, and he continued to learn from Cheng Yi. At this time, he is 40 years old, still respecting teachers and studying hard.

One day, it snowed heavily and it was freezing. When Shi Yang encountered a problem, he braved the cold wind to ask his classmate You Zuo (1053~ 1 123) to go to the teacher's house for advice. When he came to the teacher's house, he found the teacher asleep in the chair. He couldn't bear to disturb him, for fear of affecting the teacher's rest, so he stood quietly outside and waited. When the teacher woke up, the snow under their feet was one foot deep and covered with snow. The teacher invited Shi Yang and others into the room to give them a lecture. What happened afterwards? Chengmen Sydney? Become a widely circulated model of respecting teachers.

Third, Kong Rong let pears.

Kong Rong has five brothers and one younger brother.

One day, I ate pears at home. A plate of pears was placed in front of everyone, and my brother asked my brother to take it first. Guess what pear Kong Rong is holding? He doesn't pick the good ones, he doesn't pick the big ones, he only takes the smallest ones. Dad was very happy after seeing it. Although the child is only four years old, he is really sensible. Just deliberately ask Kong Rong:? There are so many pears, you must take them away first. Why not take the big one and only the smallest one? Kong Rong replied? I am young, so I deserve the youngest. The big one is for my brother. ? Father asked him again:? You have a younger brother, isn't he younger than you?

Kong Rong said? I am older than my brother. I'm my brother. I should leave the old ones for my brother. ?

You see, how well Kong Rong speaks. His father smiled when he heard this. Good boy, good boy, really good boy. ?

Kong Rong is four years old and knows how to make pears. Make way for brothers, make way for brothers. Everyone speaks highly of him.

Fourth, the Prime Minister apologized.

During Hawke's tenure as Prime Minister of Australia, he had an argument with an old man about pension in a shopping mall. On impulse, Hawke scolded the old man: stupid old man. ? The old man therefore took him to court. Hawke held a press conference and publicly apologized to the old man for his uncivilized language. He said:? I was sad that day, but that can't be the reason why I used that wording. If I really hurt him, I would like to apologize to this gentleman for it. Please forgive my rudeness. ?

5. Lenin makes way

Once, Lenin went downstairs, and in the narrow corridor of the stairs, he met a female worker carrying a basin of water upstairs. As soon as the women workers see Lenin, they will make way for Lenin and prepare to go back by themselves. Lenin stopped her and said, you don't have to do this. You're halfway done, and I'm empty-handed. Please go first! ? He released it? Please. Speak loudly and kindly. Then he leaned against the wall and told the girl to go upstairs, and then he went downstairs. Lenin is undoubtedly a great man, but he is not rude because of his lofty position, which shows his great quality.

Sixth,? Humiliated? Lincoln

Once, American President Lincoln and his son Robert drove into the street and met an army crossing the street. Lincoln casually asked a passerby:? What is this? Lincoln wanted to ask which state's corps it was, but he didn't make it clear. The man thought he didn't know the army and replied rudely. This is a federal army. You are such a fucking idiot. ? Lincoln reprimanded himself to an ordinary passerby and only said? Thank you? No scowl.

Seven, the origin of the unjust verdict

Ke Liping, conductor of Shanghai No.22 bus, won a very special award? Unfair award? . One day, when a young man bought a ticket, he deliberately spat on a fifty-cent bill and threw it on the floor of the carriage. While other passengers accused the young man, they also quietly looked at Ke Liping. She bent down to pick up the paper money, wiped her phlegm with a napkin, and then politely handed the ticket to the young man. Ke Liping's behavior was praised by the passengers. The young man felt ashamed and apologized to Ke Liping. Colleagues reported the matter to the team afterwards, and the team leader gave a special prize to Ke Liping? Unfair award? To encourage the whole ticketing team.

Eight, respect respect.

In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there was a man named Lu Xiaohui, who was brilliant, knowledgeable and polite. He has a long history under several kings and can be said to be a man of great power. However, he never thinks highly of himself and visits his officials. Regardless of the size of officials, he treats them with courtesy and does not put on airs at all. If the guest leaves, he will stand up and personally escort him to the door.

An assistant saw this incomprehensible scene and said to him: Lu Chang is a historian with a high status. He is very polite to everyone, even to ordinary people. It's beneath his dignity, and he gets nothing. Why bother a historian with a smooth road? Lu Xiaohui smiled disapprovingly and said, If you want to take it first, you must follow it first. I hope everyone respects me, so I must respect everyone. ?

Lu Xiaohui followed this principle all his life, so he was respected and supported by many people, and his achievements far exceeded others.

Nine, a model of civilized etiquette

Dr. Sun Yat-sen is a pioneer of bourgeois revolution in China and a model of civility and courtesy. He believes that bad habits such as spitting, growing nails and not brushing your teeth are all acts that violate civilization and manners and are not commensurate with the civilized tradition of our Chinese nation. He advocates? Sincerity and loyalty? , pay attention? Every move is tiny? A symbol of civilization.

X. Respect teachers

Rainy days, comic books? San Mao? Zhang Leping, the author, held an umbrella in one hand and a cake in the other, visited Lu Yinsheng, a primary school teacher whom he had not seen for more than 50 years. Lu Yinsheng once gave Zhang Leping a topic to guide him to draw political cartoons, which was the beginning of Zhang Leping's study of cartoons. Although more than 50 years have passed, Zhang Leping still remembers it vividly. Teacher Lu in his 80s looked at Zhang Leping and asked? Who are you? Looking for who? Zhang Leping said? My name is Zhang Ping, and now my name is Zhang Leping. ? Teacher Lu is very excited: you rarely think of me for decades. It is not easy! ? Zhang Leping said? You taught me to draw my first cartoon, and I have never forgotten you! ?
