I'm traveling to the United States for the first time. What do you know about manners in the U. S.? What tips do you have about being polite?

Explanation:

Eye Contact is key. But don't stare

Table Manners : When dining, people consider it not nice for a guest or dining partner to burp , eat with an open mouth.

When you want to refuse something politely say, " No Thank You. "

When accepting say, " Yes Please. "

Always say thank you when someone helps you out ( common knowledge )

When entering/leaving : ( stores, etc..) When the staff or anyone say "Welcome" or "Hello" , always say "Hello" back or it will make you look like you are ignoring them. Same goes to when you are leaving :)

Phone Calls : this one is important because when someone calls you and you start talking loudly or put them on speaker in public, it looks  r u d e  to the people beside you. They don't need to know what your private life is. I've had this happen a couple of times and its very uncomfortable.

answer: to inform

explanation: the red death is an exciting passage, but also in some ways scary, so it is not to amuse. the red death is far in the past, so it is not to warn.
