D D I used to believe courtesy(禮貌 ) was a thing of the past. Very seldom have I encountered a courteous human being in this modem era of the so called Generation X.

I was sure I would be pushed roughly by this man who will want to go up in a hurry. I kept ing down as fast as I could, holding on to the banister (欄桿 ), instead of my advanced years.
