Read the article and underline the topic sentence for each paragraph.
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 they speak in different situations. The expressions they use might depend on whom they are speaking to or how well they know each other. It is all right to ask your classmates direct questions 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.
Usually polite questions are longer. They included 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 communication better with other people.
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.
Paragraph 1
For example, you may ask “Where are the restrooms ” or “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are ”
3. What should we do when we are talking with different people

we speak.
They might depend on whom you are speaking
to or how well you know them.
Paragraph 2
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 “_____”.

Do you know where my book is
