Another element of courtesy is empathy （善解人意）, a that enables a person to see into the mind or heart of someone else, to understand the pain or there and to do something to it．A man dinning with his girlfriend in a restaurant was trying to open the cap of a beer bottle, but he couldn’t do it because of badly injured ．He asked a young busboy to help him．The boy took the bottle, turned his back momentarily and loosened the cap without difficulty．Then he it again．Turning back to the man, he to make great efforts to open the bottle without success．Finally, he took it into the kitchen and returned shortly, saying that he had to loosen it—but only with a special tool．
another element of politeness is the ability to treat all people , in spite of all status or importance． when you have doubts about some people, act as if they are worthy of your best manners．You may also be to find out what they really are．
