One possible version:
Dear Wang Hua,
I’m very glad I can help you. Now let me tell you the way to go there. Wuhan Plaza is on Hangkong Road, it’s across from Zhongshan Park. It’s a little far from here, so you have to catch the number 549 bus and get off at Zhongshan Park,and then walk across the street. Wuhan Plaza is right there . Go into it, take the elevator to the forty-third floor. Turn right, you can see the glasses store in front of you . It’s very easy to find it. I know you are worried about your eyesight. But I think the most important thing for you is to have good habits. For example, don’t use eyes for a long time, do eye exercises every day. If you can do these things, I think you can have bright eyes.
yours

Zhang Ming is traveling in the USA.
He wants to go to a small town but he doesn't know the way.
What should he do
ask for information
or help
询问信息或请求帮助
Hi! Where is the East Town
Sorry. I can’t help you.
stranger
His request sounds ______________.
rude = impolite=less impolite
direct question
Excuse me. Could you please tell me where the East Town is
Sure. Take No. 23 Bus and you will get there.
Usually polite questions are longer. They include
expressions such as “Could you please….. ”or
“May I ask….. ” “I’m sorry to trouble you but…”
“Excuse me, I wonder if you can help me….”．
It is not enough to just ask a question
correctly. We also need to learn how to
be polite when we ask for help.
仅仅只是正确地问一个问题是不够的。
当我们寻求帮助的时候，我们也需要学习
如何显得有礼貌。

Before You Read
If you need to help with your homework,
how would you ask :
1. your mother of father
2. your best friend
3. a teacher
Mom, Can you help me with my homework
Can you help me with my homework
Excuse me, Sir Could you please help me with my homework
1. your mother or father
2. your best friend
3. a teacher
Could you please ...
When you visit a foreign country, it is important to know how to ask for help politely. For example, you may ask “Where are the restrooms ” or “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are ” These are similar requests for directions . Both are correct , but the first one sounds less polite. That is because it is a very direct question. It is not enough to just ask a question correctly. We also need to learn how to be polite when we ask for help.
Good speakers change the way they speak in different situations. The expressions they use might depend on whom they are speaking to or how well they know each other well. It is all right to ask direct questions to your classmates because you know them well. However, if you say to your teacher, “When is the school trip ”, this might sound impolite. But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know when the school trip is ”, this will sound much more polite.
2b
Usually polite questions are longer. They include expressions such as “Could you please ... ” or “May I ask ... ” It sounds more polite to say, “Peter, could you please tell me your e-mail address ” than “Peter, tell me your e-mail address.” Sometimes we even need to spend time leading in to a request. For example, we might first say to a stranger, “Excuse me, I wonder if you can help me” or “I’m sorry to trouble you, but ...” before asking for help.
It might seem more difficult to speak politely than directly. However, it is important to learn how to use the right language in different situations. This will help you communicate better with other people.
1. What do you think the two questions in paragraph 1
2. Why is using correct language not enough
Both are correct English, but the first
one sounds rude.
Because we need to learn how to be
polite when we make requests.(请求)
3. What should we do when we are talking with different people
4. What might the expressions you use depend on
We should change the way
(that / in which) we speak
They might depend on whom you are
speaking to or how well you know them.
5. If you are looking for your book,
if you ask your teacher about it,
you should say___________;
if you ask someone (who / whom) you know well
about it, you should say “___________”.
Where is my book
B. Excuse me, Mr. …
Do you know where my book is

默读第三段，判断正误
( )Usually polite questions are longer than impolite questions.
