礼貌用语是人们在日常工作和生活交往中的一个重要部分。它反映一个国家的文明程度和人民的文化素质。本文将介绍一些英语礼貌用语：
要求别人做某事时，通常使用下列的客气句型：Would you please ……? Would you like to ……? I wonder if you would …… Would you mind (doing)……? Would you be so kind as to ……? I would be most grateful if you……等等。使用这些客气的表达方式，更易使对方接受。如：
1．导游要求游客跟着他走的时候说，Would you please follow me and go this way? （请大家跟我这边走好吗？）
2．宴会主人安排座位时说，Mr. XXX, would you like to sit beside Ms XXX, please? (XXX 先生，请你在XXX女士旁边就座好吗？)
3．主考人对参加面试的求职者可以用以下方式提问，Would you mind answering a few personal questions? （请你回答几个有关个人方面的问题，好吗？）
4．请人顺便为你做些事时说，I wonder if you could do me a favour by post this letter in the post office nearby on your way home. （劳驾你是否可在回家途中到附近邮局为我寄封信。）
5．请客户尽早告诉对新产品意见时说：“As a courtesy to the next passenger, may we suggest that you clean the basin with the towel you have been using. （为照顾其他顾客，我们竭诚建议你用清洁纸把刚使用过的脸盆擦干净。）
6．航空公司提醒乘客注意某事时说，Passengers are kindly requested to remain seated until aircraft es to a plete halt. （请各位旅客在飞机未完全停稳前不要离开座位）。
7．“禁止吸烟”。如在汽车库门口当然可以写上“Smoking strictly prohibited.”（严禁吸烟）。但在其它公共场所，挂上“Thanks for not smoking.”（感谢你不吸烟）的标志，显然使人感到更加客气、得当。
