It's a very good habit. You should say "thank you" when someone passes you the salt on the table or opens the door for you, or say you have done your homework well. "Thank you" is used not only between friends but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives. "Excuse me" is another useful short expression. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know he or she wants to walk past you without touching you. It's not polite to interrupt others when they are talking.

Read the article and select the best answer. Article: Long long ago, a young man found a spring of delicious clean water while he was going through the desert. He brought some back to the oldest man in his village, who had been his teacher before. After a four-day journey he sent the water to the old man who took a deep drink, smiled warmly and thanked his student for the sweet water. The young man returned to his village happily. The next day, the teacher let another student taste the water. He spat it out, saying it was awful. It went bad because it had stayed in the old leather container for so many days in such hot weather. The student asked his teacher why he pretended to like the awful water. The teacher _ , "You only tasted the water. I tasted the gift. The water was simply the container for love and kindness. And nothing could be sweeter than these." I think we understand this lesson best when we receive small gifts of love from very young kids. Whether it's a slice of bread or a piece of colored paper, the natural and right response is to show our thanks and happiness because we get love from the gift. To show our thanks doesn't always come naturally. Unfortunately, most children and many adults only see the thing itself. They never feel the meaning of the thing. We should tell ourselves and teach our children about showing thanks and happiness to the persons who give the gifts from their hearts because gifts from the heart are really gifts of the heart. Question: What does the writer want to tell us? Options: A: We should never receive anything from others. B: We should show thanks and happiness when we get the gifts from the heart. C: We should pretend to love the things given by others all the time. D: We should give gifts from our hearts.
