Standing outside the door on a snowy day, waiting for Cheng Yi (Cheng Yi) to wake up and teach-respect the teacher and emphasize the road.
Shi Yang (1053? 1 135) A gifted scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty, a musician in Nanjian Prefecture (now Fujian). After winning the Jinshi, he gave up being an official and continued his studies.
Two stories about civilization
China is a world-famous ancient civilization and etiquette country with a long tradition of etiquette. From ancient times to the present, handed down from generation to generation. With the development of society, etiquette is also developing constantly, adding new connotations and giving people inspiration and strength. As a teacher, we should pay more attention to etiquette and advocate civilization. A few things made me realize the importance of etiquette again.
Story 1: Our school has a working lunch at noon every day, and all teachers eat together. However, for the safety of students, two teachers are arranged to send students to the long-distance highway every day, which makes both teachers have to eat in the future. At noon that day, many teachers began to eat lunch as usual, only the secretary Chen sat at the table without moving chopsticks. We thought there was something wrong with him, but I didn't expect him to tell us a story of "Yi Men Chen". The story probably means that people who talk about "Yi Men Chen" pay great attention to "Yi" and "Li", which shocked the emperors at that time. One of the details says: all dogs here know "righteousness" and "courtesy", and there is a legend that "dogs don't eat until they arrive." After we heard the story, we remembered that there were two teachers who didn't come to dinner and came to see the students across the street. . . . Since then, every time we eat, we will wait for everyone to arrive before opening chopsticks.
One more thing, several juniors walked side by side, talking and laughing. A teacher came in front, and they didn't know each other. But when the teacher came to these students, everyone else was joking. Only one student bowed respectfully and said "Hello, teacher". Of course, the teacher answered "hello" happily, and the other students didn't hum. After the teacher passed. Some people say that the classmate is a cake, and the teacher he doesn't know bows. Some people say that he is just pretending to show others. That classmate didn't refute them, but said: being a polite person is the most basic requirement of being a student. I was very moved to hear this last sentence. I was moved by the sincerity of that classmate. Politeness is really a rare quality
Another thing, which can be said to be just an action, is that a teacher sees a piece of popsicle paper, bends down, picks it up and throws it into the trash can. It was a humble move, but he set an example and taught us that he was a teacher. If some students see what the teacher has done, how can they not admire him? Maybe he will do the same next time. He will also understand that littering is uncivilized.
Through these small things, I have realized the meaning of "etiquette" more. It is manifested from a small thing, a manifestation of spiritual beauty, and a standard for a person to be a man. We should turn the campus into a civilized and pollution-free paradise. It's the same reason: starting from me, only you, me and him "starting from me" will be full of etiquette "taste" and make you, me and him a real person.
Are there any short stories about civilized manners? 10-40 words. It will be urgent this afternoon. Please hurry up before 3 o'clock.
1. Unity and friendship-calm Liu Mingchuan.
Liu Mingchuan, the governor of the Qing court in Taiwan, was a great hero in the construction of Taiwan Province, and he urged the construction of the first railway in Taiwan Province. There is an intriguing story about the appointment of Liu Mingchuan: When Li Hongzhang recommended Liu Mingchuan to Zeng Guofan, he also recommended two other Jinshi. In order to test which of them has the best personality, Zeng Guofan specially asked them to go to Zengfu for an interview at a certain time. But at the appointed time, Zeng Guofan deliberately refused to let them wait in the living room, but secretly observed their attitude carefully. I saw that the other two seemed impatient and kept complaining; Only Liu Mingchuan enjoyed the calligraphy and painting on the wall quietly and calmly. Later, Zeng Guofan questioned the calligraphy and painting in their living room, and only Liu Mingchuan could answer. As a result, Liu Mingchuan was recommended as the governor of Taiwan Province.
Note: People who have no patience will definitely lack the spirit of perseverance and overcoming all difficulties, and naturally they will not achieve anything great. If you want to make a difference in the future, you must first temper your patience and perseverance.
2. Kong Rong lets pears.
Kong Rong (153—208), a native of Lu (now Qufu, Shandong), was a famous writer in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and one of the seven sons of Jian 'an. His literary creation was highly praised by Wei Wendi Cao Pi. According to historical records, Kong Rong was not only very clever when he was young, but also a typical example of paying attention to brotherhood, mutual help and friendship.
When Kong Rong was four years old, he often ate pears with his brother. Every time, Kong Rong always takes the smallest pear. Once, my father saw it and asked, "Why do you always take the small one instead of the big one?" Kong Rong said, "I am the younger brother, and I am the youngest. I should eat the small one and let the big one be eaten by my brother! "
At an early age, Kong Rong learned the truth of mutual courtesy, mutual help, unity and friendship between brothers and sisters, which surprised the whole family. Since then, Kong Rong has spread the story of pears for thousands of years, becoming a model of unity and friendship.
It's snowing at the gate.
The story of "Cheng Menxue Pear" comes from "Song History? Biography of Shi Yang: "I was forty years old when I met Cheng Yi in Luo. One day I saw H, and I sat with Youzuo. When I felt it, the snow outside the door was a foot deep. "
"Pear in Cheng Menxue" is about Shi Yang and You Zuo, scholars of the Song Dynasty, asking Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi for advice. Shi Yang and You Zuo studied under Cheng Hao. After Cheng Hao's death, both of them were forty years old and had been admitted to Jinshi. However, they will go to Cheng Yi to continue their studies. The story happened on the day when they first visited Cheng Yi in Songyang Academy.
According to legend, one day, Shi Yang and You Zuo came to Songyang Academy to visit Cheng Yi, and they happened to meet Mr. Cheng, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed. At this time, it began to snow outside. Eager to be a teacher, the two men stood aside respectfully and said nothing. After waiting for a long time, Cheng Yi slowly opened his eyes and saw You Zuo standing in front of him. He was startled and said, "Ah, ah! Are they still there? " At this time, the snow outside has accumulated more than a foot thick, and He Youzuo doesn't look tired and impatient.
This story, called "Cheng Menxue Pear", was widely circulated among scholars in the Song Dynasty. Later, people often used the idiom "Cheng Menxue Pear" to express that scholars should respect their teachers and study sincerely and firmly.
4. Send goose feathers thousands of miles away
The story of "sending goose feathers a thousand miles away" took place in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, a minority leader in Yunnan sent a special envoy to Mian Bogao to offer a swan to Emperor Taizong.
When passing by Mianyang, kind Mian Bogao released the swan from its cage and wanted to give it a bath. Unexpectedly, the swan soared into the sky. Mian Bogao was busy reaching for it, only pulling out a few goose feathers. Mian Bogao was so anxious that she stamped her feet and began to cry. His entourage advised him, "It's no use crying because it has already flown away. Let's think of a remedy. " Mian Bogao thought, also can only be so.
In Chang 'an, Mian Bogao met with Emperor Taizong and presented a gift. Emperor Taizong saw that it was a delicate satin bag and opened it. At first glance, it is just a few goose feathers and a poem. The poem says: "Swan pays tribute to Tang Dynasty, the mountain is high and the road is far. Mianyang River lost its treasure and fell on the ground crying. After the Emperor of Heaven, Mian Bogao was spared. The ceremony is light and affectionate, and the goose feathers are sent thousands of miles. " Emperor Taizong was puzzled, and Mian Bogao immediately told the story. Emperor Taizong repeatedly said, "What a treat! It's commendable! Send goose feathers a thousand miles away, and the ceremony is light and affectionate! "
This story embodies the precious virtue of the giver's honesty. Today, people use "a thousand miles to send goose feathers" to describe the gift as thin, but the affection is extremely deep.
10 business etiquette story etiquette story
Chen Atu 1
Chen Atu, a farmer in Taiwan Province Province, has never been far away. After saving money for half my life, I finally joined a tour group and went abroad. Everything abroad is very fresh. The key point is that Chen Atu joined a luxury group and lived in a standard room. This makes him novel. In the morning, when the waiter knocked on the door to deliver breakfast, he shouted, "Good morning, sir!" " Chen Atu froze. What does this mean? In my hometown, strangers usually ask, "What's your name?" So Chen Atu shouted, "My name is Chen Atu!" If so, for three days in a row, it's the waiters who knock at the door and say "good morning, sir" loudly every day! Chen Atu also replied loudly: "My name is Chen Atu!"
But he was very angry. This waiter is so stupid that he asks his name every day and tells him that he can't remember. Very annoying. Finally, he couldn't help asking the tour guide, "Good morning, sir!" " What do you mean? The tour guide told him, oh, my God! ! That's a real pity. Chen Atu practiced saying "Good morning, sir!" This word allows you to deal with waiters with dignity.
Another morning, the waiter knocked at the door as usual. As soon as the door opened, Chen Atu shouted, "Good morning, sir!" At the same time, the waiter shouted, "I'm Chen Atu!"
This story tells us that interpersonal communication is often a contest between willpower and willpower. Either you influence him or he influences you. If we want to succeed, we must cultivate our own influence. Only those with great influence can become the strongest.
2. Master performer
Before a master performer came on stage, his disciples told him that his shoelaces were loose. The master nodded his thanks and squatted down to tie it carefully. Disciple turned his back and squatted down to untie his shoelaces. A bystander saw all this and asked inexplicably, "Master, why did you untie your shoelaces again?" The master replied: "Because I play a tired traveler, I can show his fatigue and haggard through this detail by making his shoes loose after a long journey." "Then why don't you just tell your disciples?" "He can carefully find that my shoelaces are loose and enthusiastically tell me that I must protect his enthusiasm and encourage him in time. As for why I untied my shoelaces, I will have more opportunities to teach him to perform in the future. I can talk about it next time. "
People can only do one thing at a time, and only by grasping the key points can they become real talents.
3. Parrot
A man went to buy a parrot and saw a sign in front of it: This parrot can speak two languages, 200 yuan. In front of another parrot, it was written: This parrot can speak four languages, and the price is 400 yuan. Which one should I buy? Both are shiny, very flexible and lovely. The man turned and couldn't make up his mind. Suddenly I found a parrot with a tooth missing. Its coat color is dim and messy, and its price is 800 yuan. The man quickly called the boss: Can this parrot speak eight languages? The shopkeeper said: no, this person is very strange: then why is it so old, so ugly and so incompetent that it is worth this number? The shopkeeper replied: because the other two parrots call this parrot boss.
This story tells us that a real leader is not necessarily strong in his own ability. As long as he knows how to trust, how to delegate and how to cherish, he can unite forces stronger than himself and thus enhance his value. On the contrary, many people with very strong abilities are too perfectionist and hands-on, and no one can match them. In the end, I can only be the best researcher and sales representative, but I can't be an excellent leader.
4. Golden Man
Once a small country came to China to pay tribute to three identical gold people. The splendor of the golden wall made the emperor very happy. However, this small country is not kind, and at the same time a question arises: who is the most valuable of these three gold people? The emperor thought of many ways to ask the jeweler to check, weigh and watch the work, all of which were exactly the same. What shall we do? The messenger is still waiting for a return. A vast country, you don't even understand this little thing? Finally, an old minister who abdicated said that he had an idea. The emperor invited the emissary to the main hall, and the old minister confidently took three straws and inserted them into the ear of the first gold man. The straw came out of the other ear. The straw of the second gold man fell out directly from his mouth, and the straw of the third gold man fell into his stomach without a sound. The old minister said: the third gold man is the most valuable! The messenger was silent and the answer was correct.
This story tells us that the most valuable person is not necessarily the most talkative person. God gave us two ears and one mouth, which was supposed to make us listen more and talk less. Being good at listening is the most basic quality of a mature person.
Step 5 give up
A said to B, "I want to leave this company. I hate this company! " B suggestion: "I raise my hands in favor of your revenge!" " ! This broken company must give it some color to see see. But now is not the best time for you to leave. "ah q:?
B said, "If you leave now, the company will not lose much. You should take advantage of the opportunity in the company, try your best to attract some customers for yourself, become a unique figure in the company, and then suddenly leave the company with these customers, and the company will suffer heavy losses and be very passive. " A thinks what B said is very reasonable. So he worked hard and got what he wanted. After more than half a year's efforts, he has many loyal customers. When we meet again, B asks A: It's time to jump, so hurry up! A smiled indifferently: the boss talked to me for a long time and was going to promote me to be the assistant to the general manager. I have no plans to leave for the time being.
In fact, this is also the original intention of B. A person's job is always just for his resume. Only by paying more than you get, and letting the boss really see that your ability is greater than your position, will you be given more opportunities and create more profits for him.
Step 6 choose
Three people are going to be put in prison for three years, and the warden gives each of them a request. Americans love to smoke cigars and asked for three boxes of cigars. The French are the most romantic and want to be accompanied by beautiful women. The Jew said he wanted a telephone to communicate with the outside world. Three years later, the first person who rushed out was an American, with a cigar in his mouth and shouting, "Give me a fire, give me a fire!" " "It turned out that he forgot to make a fire.
Then the French came. I saw a child in his hand, a beautiful woman holding a child in her hand and a third one in her belly. Finally, the Jews came out. He held the warden's hand tightly and said, "I have been in contact with the outside world every day for three years." My business has not stopped, but has increased by 200%. To express my gratitude, I send you an old Schleswig! "
This story tells us that what kind of choice determines what kind of life. Today's life is determined by our choices three years ago, and today's choices will determine our life three years later. We should choose to get in touch with the latest information and understand the latest trends, so as to create our own future better.
7.tiger
Two men met a big tiger in the forest. A quickly took off a pair of lighter sports shoes from the back and put them on. B was so anxious that he scolded, "What are you doing? Changing shoes can't beat the tiger! " A said, "I just want to run faster than you."
2 1 century, no sense of crisis is the biggest crisis. Especially after China's entry into WTO, telecommunications, banking, insurance and even civil servants, which we think are very stable and secure, will also face many variables. When more tigers come, aren't we ready for running shoes?
8. Catch up with the exam
A scholar went to Beijing for the third time to catch the exam and stayed in a shop where he often lived. Two days before the exam, he had three dreams. The first dream is that he grows cabbage on the wall. The second dream is that it is raining. He is wearing a hat and an umbrella. The third dream is that he and his beloved cousin are lying together in clothes, but their backs are to each other. These three dreams seem to have some profound meanings, so the scholar hurried to find fortune-telling dreams the next day. Hearing this, the fortune teller patted his thigh continuously and said, "You'd better go home. Think about it, isn't it futile to grow vegetables on high walls? Isn't it unnecessary to wear a hat and an umbrella? Isn't it impossible to lie in a bed with my cousin, but back to back? "
Hearing this, the scholar was disheartened and went back to the store to pack his bags and prepare to go home. The shopkeeper was surprised and asked, "Isn't there an exam tomorrow? How did you go back to your hometown today? "
When the scholar said this, the shopkeeper was happy: "Hey, I can interpret dreams, too. I think you must stay this time. Think about it, isn't it high to grow vegetables on the wall? Doesn't wearing a hat and an umbrella mean that you are prepared this time? With you
Cousin * * * is lying in bed back to back, doesn't that mean it's time for you to turn over? "Hearing this, the scholar made more sense, so he took the exam happily and got the chance to explore flowers.
Positive people, like the sun, shine wherever they shine, while negative people, like the moon, are different on the fifteenth day of the first month. Ideas determine our lives. What kind of ideas, what kind of future.
9.camel
The little camel in the zoo asked his mother, "Mom, why are our eyelashes so long?" Mother camel said, "When a sandstorm comes, long eyelashes can make us all see clearly in the storm." The little camel asked again, "Mom, why are our backs so camel and ugly!" " "Mother camel said," This is called hump. It can help us to store a lot of water and nutrients, so that we can endure it for more than ten days without drinking water or eating in the desert. The little camel asked again, "Mom, why are our soles so thick?" "Mother camel said," This can prevent our heavy bodies from sinking into soft sand and facilitate long-distance travel. "
The little camel was very happy: "Wow, we are really useful."
I was born useful, but no one uses it now. Good mentality+successful teaching materials+infinite stage = success. Everyone's potential is unlimited, and the key is to find a stage where you can give full play to your potential.
10, porridge
Seven people once lived together and shared a big bucket of porridge every day. Sadly, there is not enough porridge to eat every day. At first, they drew lots to decide who would share the porridge, one serving a day. So every week, they are full only one day, that is, the day of porridge sharing. Later, they began to elect a noble person to share the porridge. Power will lead to corruption, and everyone began to try their best to please and bribe him, making the whole clique filled with smoke. Then everyone began to form a three-person porridge Committee and a four-person selection Committee, attacking each other and wrangling, and the porridge was cold in their mouths. Finally, I came up with a method: divide the porridge in turn, but the people who divide the porridge have to wait for everyone else to pick up the last bowl left. In order not to eat the least, everyone tries to distribute it equally, even if it is uneven, you can only admit it. Everyone is happy and kind, and life is getting better and better.
The same seven people, different distribution systems, will have different ethos. Therefore, if a unit has bad work habits, it must be a mechanism problem, and it must not be completely fair and open, and there is no strict reward for diligence and punishment for laziness. How to formulate such a system is a problem that every leader needs to consider.

20 words of etiquette stories of the four great civilizations
First, vision and personality
An enterprise manager once said, "Once, I had lunch with the manager of a sales company." Whenever a beautiful waitress comes to our table, he always watches her walk out of the restaurant. I am very angry about this, and I feel insulted. I thought to myself, in his opinion, the waitress's leg is more important than what I have to say to him. He doesn't listen to me. He doesn't take me seriously at all. "
Second, the old lady and the "spouse"
A census taker asked an uneducated old lady when filling out the population registration form, "Do you have a spouse?" The old lady froze for a long time, but she couldn't answer. Someone nearby explained, "Did he ask if you have a wife?" The old lady suddenly realized this. Third, there are no masters here, only doctors. A college student of a university ran to the infirmary clutching his left lower abdomen and said to the doctor sitting in the clinic, "Master, I have a stomachache." The doctor sitting in the consulting room said, "There are only doctors here, not masters. Please go to the student canteen to find the master. " The students blushed to the ears.
Third, it snows at the Chengmen Gate.
According to legend, one day, Shi Yang and You Zuo came to Songyang Academy to visit Cheng Yi, and they happened to meet Mr. Cheng, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed. At this time, it began to snow outside. Eager to be a teacher, the two men stood aside respectfully and said nothing. After waiting for a long time, Cheng Yi slowly opened his eyes and saw You Zuo standing in front of him. He was startled and said, "Ah, ah! Are they still there? " At this time, the snow outside has accumulated more than a foot thick, and He Youzuo doesn't look tired and impatient.
This story, called "Cheng Menxue Pear", was widely circulated among scholars in the Song Dynasty. Later, people often used the idiom "Cheng Menxue Pear" to express that scholars should respect their teachers and study sincerely and firmly.
Fourth, Yang Xiang catches the tiger to save his relatives.
Yang Xiang is a fourteen-year-old girl. One day, she followed her father Yang Feng to the field to harvest crops. Just halfway through, they suddenly jumped out of a big tiger, bit Yang Xiang's father and ran back. Yang Xiang was unarmed at that time, but she was not afraid of danger. She only thinks about her father who was dragged away by the tiger, and ignores her life and death.
She ran quickly, grabbed the tiger by the neck and strangled it. At first, the tiger fought back, but Yang Xiang refused to let go. The tiger gradually lost its strength, ground its teeth and finally died. Yang Xiang's father is finally out of danger and out of the tiger.
Later generations wrote an essay praising Yang Xiang: Yang Xiang was fourteen years old. With my father, I collected millet in the field, and my father pulled it for the tiger to eat. When Xiang was unarmed, he only knew that he had a father, but he didn't know that he had a body. Enthusiastically stepped forward and grabbed the tiger by the neck. The tiger gritted his teeth and saved his father from harm.
Verb (abbreviation of verb) unity and friendship-cool Liu Ming.
Liu Mingchuan, the governor of the Qing court in Taiwan, was a great hero in the construction of Taiwan Province, and he urged the construction of the first railway in Taiwan Province. There is an intriguing story about the appointment of Liu Mingchuan: When Li Hongzhang recommended Liu Mingchuan to Zeng Guofan, he also recommended two other Jinshi. In order to test which of them has the best personality, Zeng Guofan specially asked them to go to Zengfu for an interview at a certain time. But at the appointed time, Zeng Guofan deliberately refused to let them wait in the living room, but secretly observed their attitude carefully.
I saw that the other two seemed impatient and kept complaining; Only Liu Mingchuan enjoyed the calligraphy and painting on the wall quietly and calmly. Later, Zeng Guofan questioned the calligraphy and painting in their living room, and only Liu Mingchuan could answer. As a result, Liu Mingchuan was recommended as the governor of Taiwan Province.
(4) Three-span extended reading of The Story of Civilization:
Civilized etiquette is the lowest moral standard that human beings require people to abide by in order to maintain the normal life of society. It is gradually formed in people's long-term life and communication and is fixed by customs, habits and traditions.
Civilized etiquette is not only the embodiment of personal quality and education, but also the embodiment of personal morality and social morality, the accomplishment of the city and the face of the country. Therefore, as a "state of etiquette" with a history of 5,000 years, we should treat people with civilized behavior and reasonable etiquette. This is also an important way to carry forward national culture and show national spirit.
decorate
Instrument refers to a person's appearance, which is the external expression of a person's mental outlook. A person's hygiene and cultivation habits. Clothing and image are closely related to maintaining a dignified and generous appearance.
1. personal hygiene: hygiene is the key to beautiful appearance and the basic requirement of etiquette. No matter how beautiful the dress is, no matter how luxurious the clothes are, if they are unkempt and smelly, they will inevitably destroy a person's external image. Therefore, everyone should develop good hygiene habits, such as sleeping, getting up, washing face and feet, brushing your teeth at breakfast and dinner, washing your hair and taking a bath frequently, and paying attention to personal hygiene such as gfd, changing clothes and washing your hands frequently. Don't clean your personal hygiene in front of people. For example, picking teeth, picking nostrils, digging ear wax, manicure, rubbing dirt and so on. These behaviors should be avoided by others, otherwise, it is not only unsightly, but also disrespectful to others. When talking with people, keep a certain distance, and it is best not to speak too loudly, which will splash on the population.
2. Dressing: Clothing reflects a person's cultural quality and aesthetic taste. Specifically, it is necessary to be natural, decent, harmonious and generous, and to abide by some established norms or principles. Clothing should not only adapt to its own specific conditions, but also always pay attention to people's dress requirements in objective environment and occasions, that is, dress should give priority to time, place and purpose, and work hard in all aspects of dress.
The content/manner of speech
As an art, speech is also an important part of personal etiquette.
1, courtesy: be sincere and kind; The sound size should be appropriate, and the tone should be peaceful and calm; Respect others.
2. Terminology: honorifics, words expressing respect and courtesy. Such as "please", "thank you" and "sorry" in daily use, and the word "you" in the second person's address. The first meeting was "long heard"; Long time no see; Please criticize it as "teaching"; Trouble others call it "disturbing"; Seeking convenience is "borrowing light"; The client acts as "please" and so on. Efforts should be made to form the habit of using honorifics. At present, the polite expressions advocated in our country are ten words: "hello", "please", "thank you", "sorry" and "goodbye". These ten words embody the basic language form of speaking civilization.
Etiquette and manners
1, Conversation posture: Conversation posture often reflects a person's character, cultivation and civilized quality. Therefore, when talking, the two sides should first look at each other and listen to each other. They should not look around, read books and newspapers, look tired and yawn, otherwise they will give people the impression of being absent-minded and arrogant.
2, standing posture: standing posture is the most basic posture of people, is a static beauty. When standing, the body should be perpendicular to the ground, the center of gravity should be placed on the palms of the two front feet, chest out, abdomen in, jaw in, head up and shoulders relaxed. Arms naturally droop or cross in front of the body, eyes straight and smiling. Don't bend your neck, waist and legs when standing. In some formal occasions, it is not advisable to put your hands in your trouser pockets or cross your chest, let alone make some small moves unconsciously. This will not only appear stiff, give people a feeling of lack of self-confidence, but also lose the dignity of etiquette.
3, sitting posture: sitting is also a static shape. A dignified and elegant sitting posture will give people an elegant, steady and natural aesthetic feeling. The correct sitting posture should be: straight back and relaxed shoulders. Women should put their knees together or tilt their knees together; Male knees can be separated, but not too big, generally not more than shoulder width.
Put your hands naturally on your knees or on the armrests of your chair. On formal occasions, you should be gentle when you sit down, dignified and steady when you get up, and you can't rattle tables and chairs and create an embarrassing atmosphere. No matter what sitting posture, the upper body should be kept straight, as the ancients said, "sitting like a clock." If you insist on this, no matter how you change your posture, it will be beautiful and natural.

Six short stories about civilization
1, Li Rang, Kong Rong
When Kong Rong was four years old, he often ate pears with his brother. Every time, Kong Rong always takes the smallest pear. Once, my father saw it and asked, "Why do you always take the small one instead of the big one?" Kong Rong said, "I am the younger brother, and I am the youngest. I should eat the small one and let my brother eat the big one. "
At an early age, Kong Rong learned the truth of mutual courtesy, mutual help, unity and friendship between brothers and sisters, which surprised the whole family. Since then, Kong Rong has spread the story of pears for thousands of years, becoming a model of unity and friendship.
2. Worried about tasting feces
Yu, Gao Shi of Nanqi, was appointed as the magistrate of Yiling County. Less than ten days after taking office, I suddenly felt scared and sweaty. I had a premonition that something had happened at home, so I immediately resigned and returned to China. When I got home, I realized that my father had been seriously ill for two days. The doctor said, "To know the condition, just taste the patient's feces. It is bitter."
Qian Lou went to taste his father's excrement and found it very sweet. He is very worried. At night, he bowed down to the Big Dipper and begged to die for his father. A few days later, his father died, and Qian Lou buried his father and raised him there for three years.
The prime minister apologized. During Hawke's tenure as Prime Minister of Australia, he had an argument with an old man about pension in a shopping mall. Hawke called the old man a "stupid old man" on impulse, so the old man took him to court.
Hawke held a press conference and publicly apologized to the old man for his uncivilized language. He said, "I was sad that day, but that can't be the reason why I used that wording." If I really hurt him, I would like to apologize to this gentleman for it. Please forgive my rudeness. "
Lenin gave way.
Once, Lenin went downstairs, and in the narrow corridor of the stairs, he met a female worker carrying a basin of water upstairs. As soon as the women workers see Lenin, they will make way for Lenin and prepare to go back by themselves. Lenin stopped her and said, "Don't do this. You're halfway done, and I'm empty-handed Please go first! " He said the word "please" loudly and kindly.
Then he leaned against the wall and told the girl to go upstairs, and then he went downstairs. Lenin is undoubtedly a great man, but he is not rude because of his lofty position, which shows his great quality.
5, "submit to humiliation" Lincoln
Once, American President Lincoln and his son Robert drove into the street and met an army crossing the street. Lincoln casually asked a passerby, "What is this?" Lincoln wanted to ask which state's regiment it was, but he didn't make it clear. The man thought he didn't know the army, so he replied rudely, "This is a federal army. You are such a fucking idiot. " When Lincoln was reprimanded by an ordinary passer-by, he only said "thank you" without scowling.
6. The origin of grievance adjudication
Ke Liping, the conductor of Shanghai No.22 bus, once won a very special award-the "grievance award". One day, when a young man bought a ticket, he deliberately spat on a fifty-cent bill and threw it on the floor of the carriage. While other passengers accused the young man, they also quietly looked at Ke Liping.
She bent down to pick up the paper money, wiped her phlegm with a napkin, and then politely handed the ticket to the young man. Ke Liping's behavior was praised by the passengers.
