Where was a time when, if a lady got into a crowded bus or train, a gentleman would immediately stand up and bring to offer his seat.But now, things are different.Today a gentleman will probably look out of the window,or if he feels a bit shy, hide behind his newspaper.Either way,the lady will have to stand until someone else gets off.

　　曾经有一个时期，如果女士上了拥挤的公共汽车或火车，绅士们就会立即起身让座。但现在情况完全不同了。现在，男士们可能会看着窗外，或者，如果他感到有点不好意思，就会藏在报纸后面。这两种情况不管是哪种，女士们只能站着等到有人下车。
