We should show respect to everybody, e【小题1】our elders because they are ahead of us — in age, in wisdom and maturity, in experience and education. Our elders have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us owe everything to their kindness and love.

When we show them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or greeting them with a smile, or o【小题2】 them any help they need, it is one way of expressing our own love and gratitude to them.

Youngsters should quickly express their views and if there are arguments, they should not r【小题6】 their voices.  When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become aware that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness.
