For example, when we want to ask a stranger for the way, we should say “Excuse me” at first. 17 Next, “Could you please…” is often used while asking for the direction. After we know how to get to the final place, we should say “Thanks” to others. 18 19 They usually include pens, special maps, cameras and so on. Sometimes a pen can help us to get to the right place. We can write down the crucial(关键的) words about the place, and then we can show them to the strangers who we want to ask for help. 20 Before we go to a strange place, we can get some photos about it.

It is important to know how to ask for help
politely. 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.And direct questions sounds impolite. Usually polite questions are longer. Sometimes we even need to spend time leading into a request. It might seem mored ifficult to speak politely than directly. But using the right language in different situations will help you communicate better with
other people.

1. When you visit a foreign country, it is important to know how to ask for help politely. 当你在国外游览时，知道如何礼貌求助很重要。
句子真正的主语 (subject) 是后面的动词不定式短语 to know how to ask for help politely.
it 是形式主语，代替真正主语放句首，避免使句子头重脚轻。
构成常见句式：It is + adj. (for sb.) to do sth.
做某事（对某人来说）是怎样的。
It’s very helpful to be able to speak a foreign language.
politely作副词，意为“礼貌地;客气地”，其反义词为 impolitely（无礼地;粗鲁地）；
polite是其形容词形式，反义词为impolite（无礼的）。
He is a polite child. He speaks to everyone politely. 他是个有礼貌的孩子。他对每个人说话都很有礼貌。

(adj. 无礼的) (adv. 无礼地)

3. Both are correct, but the first one sounds less polite.
