The people who really know etiquette and speak etiquette, Jue will not only in a particular or a few specific occasions to focus on etiquette norms, this is because of those emotional, and some of the details of the program words, has long been in the training of their hearts and minds deep into the bone marrow, immersed in the blood.

So no matter when and where, we have to treat people in the most appropriate way. This is where "etiquette" becomes the most important part of our lives. Etiquette is the art of interpersonal relations, a bridge of communication between people, etiquette is a practice that must be observed in interpersonal relations, is a form of customary, i.e., in the interaction between people agreed upon a customary practice.

China is an ancient civilization with a long history, thousands of years to create a brilliant culture, the formation of a noble moral code, a complete code of etiquette, known as the "ancient civilization, the state of etiquette". This conclusion can be drawn from the Rites of Passage. The essence of the culture of the whole of East Asia and Southeast Asia are inherited from the Chinese civilization is a confirmation. China has a civilization history of five thousand years, known as the "State of Manners", the Chinese people are also known for their polite and courteous appearance. As an important part of traditional Chinese culture, the civilization of etiquette has had a wide and far-reaching influence on the historical development of Chinese society, and its content is very rich. The scope of etiquette is very wide, almost permeating all aspects of ancient society. In ancient China, "ritual" and "etiquette" are actually two different concepts. Rites" is a system, rules and a kind of social consciousness concept; "ritual" is the specific expression of "rites", which is based on the provisions and contents of "rites", "rituals" and "rituals", "rituals" and "rituals". It is a set of systematic and complete procedures formed according to the provisions and contents of "rites". In ancient China, etiquette was derived from the clan system and the hierarchical relationship between the nobility and the inferiority in order to meet the needs of the society at that time, and thus it was characterized by the characteristics and limitations of the era in which it was created. Today, modern etiquette is very different from that of ancient times, and we must discard those etiquette norms that serve the exploiting class, and focus on selecting the traditional civilized etiquette that is still of positive and universal significance today, such as respecting the elderly and the wise, being appropriate, treating people politely, and having a neat appearance, etc., in order to transform and pass them on. This is a modern value for cultivating good personal qualities, coordinating and harmonizing interpersonal relationships, shaping a civilized social atmosphere and building a socialist spiritual civilization. Now try to describe as follows: First, respect for the elderly and respect for the wise in China since the primitive society to the feudal society, interpersonal political and ethical relations are based on the clan, family ties as a link, so in the family to respect from the ancestors, respect for elders in the community. Since the ancient Chinese society respected the rule of propriety and benevolence, honoring the virtuous has become a historical requirement. Mencius said: "If you honor the wise in old age, and if you have a handsome man in your position, then you will have a celebration" (Note: "Mencius - under the Suzi"). "Celebration" means reward. This traditional etiquette in ancient times plays an important role in the formation of warm and affectionate interpersonal relationships, as well as orderly and harmonious ethical relationships, both in the past and in modern times. When it comes to honoring the elderly, this is a major feature of traditional Chinese culture. Respect for the elderly in ancient times did not remain only in ideology and sermons, nor did it stop at the lives of ordinary people.
