Ludzie są coraz mniej uprzejmi wobec siebie nawzajem. Napisz ROZPRAWKĘ, w której omówisz argumenty za i przeciw temu twierdzeniu. (People are less and less polite to each other.)
A lot of people seem to share the opinion that there is less and less politeness among us. Why is it so? Is it a process or just a phase? What makes people less polite to each other?
First of all, people live at a faster pace nowadays. That means they have no time to stop for a while to say such simple words as ‘thank you’ or ‘I’m sorry’. They have their minds preoccupied with everyday things and do not think about other people’s feelings. The most important thing is to have everything done on time. They just carry on with their daily affairs, not noticing their colleague, neighbour or even family member in need. Secondly, I think we have become accustomed to a comfortable, egoistic style of life. We spend weekends in our flats watching TV, eating, and sleeping because we are tired after the week’s hard work. Finally, we tend not to trust others so much nowadays. We are afraid of being cheated and prefer to be regarded as firm and self-confident people. Being polite is sometimes viewed as weakness in this tough world.
On the other hand, everyone often meets a polite person in various places such as work, a street or a supermarket. Is this the people’s personality? Or maybe they know that life is easier when you are polite? Also, at certain times of the year people seem to be more polite than ever, for example at Christmas, Easter or on holidays. This is so because they are more relaxed. They do not have to hurry anywhere.
All in all, nowadays people indeed are less polite to each other due to the fast life they lead and lack of free time. Also, they are afraid of being used by others and that is why they want to make the impression of themselves as tough people. Well, let us hope that in future the pace of life will slow down and we will become more polite to each other again.
