A woman had picked up her phone and begun a loud conversation, which would last an unbelievable hour. Furious, Winston began to tweet about the woman. He took her picture and sent it to his more than 40,000 followers. When the train arrived at its destination, Winston rushed out. He39。d had enough of the woman39。s rudeness. But the press were now waiting for her on the platform. And when they showed her Winston39。s messages, she used just one word to describe Winston39。s actions: rude. Winston39。s tale is something of a microcosm(縮影) of our age of increasing rudeness, fueled by social media. What can we do to fix this? Studies have shown that rudeness spreads quickly, almost like the mon cold. Just witnessing rudeness makes it far more likely that we, in turn, will be rude later on. The only way to avoid it is to deal with it face to face. We must say, Just stop. For Winston, that would have meant approaching the woman, telling her that her conversation was frustrating other passengers and politely asking her to speak more quietly or make the call at another time. The rage and injustice we feel at the rude behavior of a stranger can drive us to do odd things. In my own research, surveying 2,000 adults, I discovered that the acts of revenge people had taken ranged from the ridiculous to the disturbing. Winston did shine a spotlight on the woman39。s behavior — but from afar, in a way that shamed her. We must instead bat rudeness head on. When we see it occur in a store, we must step up and say something. If it happens to a colleague, we must point it out. We must defend strangers in the same way we39。d defend our best friends. But we can do it with grace, by handling it without a trace of aggression and without being rude ourselves. Because once rude people can see their actions through the eyes of others, they are far more likely to end that strain themselves. As this tide of rudeness rises, civilization needs civility.(1)What can you learn about Robert Winston from the passage?

Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could be, you39。ll have no trouble answering these questions. Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults. A child39。s day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But distinctions that were sharp to us as children bee unclear。 we are numb(麻木的)to new stimulation(刺激), new ideas. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits. The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs. This blocks awareness. One chilly night when I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began plaining about how cold it would be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost kneedeep when they realized it was a hot spring. Later they all admitted they39。d felt cold water at first.
