All over the world mothers and fathers teach their children manners. Other children may have manners that are not like yours. There are all kinds of manners. 

Many years ago, children who had good manners were seen and not heard. They kept quite quiet if grown-ups were talking. Today, well-mannered children have more freedom. 

Sometimes good manners in one place are bad manners in other places. 

Suppose you are a visitor in the land of Mongolia. Some friends ask you to eat with them. What kind of manners do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud “Burp” (打嗝)after you finish eating. Burping would show that you liked your food. 

In some countries, if you give a loud burp, you are told to say “excuse me, please.”

In many places people like to eat together. But in some parts of Polynesia it is bad manners to be seen eating at all. People show good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat.

Suppose you visit a friend in Arabia. You should walk behind the other tents until you come to his tent. If you pass in front of the other tents, you will be asked into each one. People will ask you to eat with them. And it is bad manners if you say no.
