How should we behave in public places? Here is some advice. Keep your voice down Don’t speak or laugh loudly. Remember that although you may be excited and want to voice your excitement, the people around you may not be interested in it at all. It’s polite to speak in a low voice. This includes laughing as well. Dress properly Dress in a way that is appropriate for the place that you are going to. If you are going to an event where people dress in a formal way, do the same. Do not wear blue jeans or a T-shirt to a dinner party. Follow table manners In Western countries, it’s not polite to pick up food with your hands. You should use a fork or a spoon. When you are in China, you shouldn’t start eating first if there are older people at the table. Using your phone while having a meal is also bad behavior. Protect public property (财产) Public facilities (设施) such as chairs, garbage cans, and public artworks are for everyone’s use and enjoyment.
