Solution
Manners maketh a man. While talking, one must look into the eyes of the person spoken to.
When someone else is talking, one should have the decency to pay attention and restate what was gathered to confirm one has understood the essence of the talk. When someone is asking something or enquiring something, one should not be meddling with other things. Such behavior amounts to an insult to the speaker. While eating along with friends, when you finish, never get up and leave the table to wash your hands. While eating, one must eat without making much noise. Care must be taken not to spill curry, drinks on the fellow diners.
While attending an interview or going to college, one must wear a neat dress and greet others with a cheerful face. While talking to elders one must always use “Sir” or Madam. While requesting use “please”. When receiving help, remember to say ‘thank you. When someone is hurt by an unwise remark, be quick to apologize or say “sorry”.
