However, if you do this in Europe, some people might feel uncomfortable. Even in China, we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed. For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum, or a movie theater is impolite. Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice down in public places. In fact, we should also take care not to cough or sneeze loudly in public if possible. impolite adj.无礼的；粗鲁的 /ə’la ʊ / allow v.允许；承认 sneezev.打喷嚏 publicn.公众 cough v.咳嗽 /k ɑf/ /pʌblik/

If someone is smoking on the bus, we could ask, Excuse me, could you please put out thatcigarette?
