礼貌待人 Politeness treats people
The seats in our school reading-room are not enough for all the students. Many people get there very early to 'seize' a seat every day. So do I. One day a 'special' thing happened to me. And I learned a lesson that I shall never forget.
It happened on a Wednesday morning last January, just before our final examation. I got to the reading-room very early to occupy a seat. I put a book on the desk and then went to have breakfast. But when I hurried back into the reading-room,我的第一个绘画老师(My First Drawing Teacher), I found someone was sitting on the seat which I had occupied in advance. I ran to him immediatly and shouted at him angrily, 'Go away. It's my seat.' Everyone raised their eyes and stared at me unfriendly. My face turned red and I felt ashamed of myself. I took my book and fled helter-skelter before so many eyes.
I dared not go to the reading-room for several days. I learned a lesson in the reading-room. Since then I have been keeping the lesson in mind: To be polite to everyone.

我们学校阅览室的座位对所有的学生来说都不够。很多人每天很早就到了“抢占”座位。有一天我发生了一件特别的事。我学到了一个教训，我永远不会忘记。
这件事发生在一个星期三的早晨，去年一月，就在期末考试之前。我很早就到阅览室去坐了。我把书放在桌子上，然后去吃早饭。但当我匆忙返回到阅览室，我的第一个绘画老师(我的第一个绘画老师)，我发现有人正坐在我占的座位上。我立即跑过去，对他生气地嚷道：“走开。每个人都抬起眼睛盯着我不友好。我的脸变红了，我为自己感到羞愧。我拿起书狼狈逃离之前，这么多的眼睛。
我不敢去阅览室好几天。我在阅览室里学到了一个教训。从那时起，我一直牢记这一课：对每个人都要有礼貌。
