3．So，let's imagine you are walking down the street drinking a box of tea．You finish drinking the tea．Now，what do you do with the box？Do you drop it on the ground？Or，do you do the right thing and drop it in a trash can？Hopefully，you drop it in the trash can because，besides harming the environment，littering is also very impolite．
Recently，a magazine published a list of the most polite cities in the world．They looked three things：did people litter，did shop clerks say thank you and did people hold the door open for the person behind them？The top three politest cities were New York，USA，Zurich，Switzerland，and Toronto，Canada．Hong Kong，China was number 35．Shanghai wasn't even on the list．
Does that mean that Shanghai is not a polite city？Well，maybe．There are different ways to judge（判断） politeness but the survey was looking at how a visitor to a city would feel when walking around its public places．Visitors don't like to step over empty tea boxes as they walk down the street．They don't like it when they buy something and the shop clerk doesn't say thank you or even give them a smile．They also don't like it when someone lets a door slam（砰然关上） into them instead of holding it open．
Shanghai is a nice city but it is not always the most polite city．I don't think this is intentional（有意的）．I think it's just a lack of awareness（缺乏意识）．China is becoming a popular place for tourists to visit．When they come to Shanghai they will find a friendly city：it would be nice if they also found a polite one．And，remember，being polite makes you feel good，too．It's nice to be nice．

分析 文章大意：主要描述了乱丢垃圾破坏环境，也是非常不礼貌的．最近，一份杂志公布了世界上最有礼貌的城市列表．位于前三位的是美国纽约；瑞士苏黎士；加拿大多伦多．上海甚至没有在名单上，可能主要是因为有人没有意识到礼貌的重要性．中国正在成为一个受欢迎的游客参观的地方．作者建议大家要有礼貌意识，在公共场所要有礼貌．
