D

Do you often use a cellphone? Do you take the subway to school every day? These items make our modern life easier. But do you know how we should behave while using them? The following suggestions might be helpful.
①
Keep your voice down in public places. Shouting with the phone may make others feel uncomfortable.
Stop sending messages or playing games with your phone when you are having dinner or a party. It’s a good time to communicate with your family or friends. Don’t make or answer a call while driving. It is not only very dangerous for both you and your passengers but also against the law.
②
You should wait in line while buying tickets or getting on the subway. You cannot eat, drink or smoke on the subway. The smell and noise may trouble others. It’s our duty to keep the subway clean and tidy. Besides, smoking is bad for your health.
You can’t take pets to the subway. As we all know, animals may spread diseases and make the subway dirty. You’d better not lie across the subway seats even if the subway isn’t crowded.
