Mobile Phone Etiquette

Etiquette is a code of behavior that allows people to follow the standards accepted in society. Although these rules can change from country to county many similarities can be found. Many of the manners we develop are based on three categories; health, courtesy, and cultural norms. It is through these that we develop the customs and habits of a society.

Etiquette # 1

This is where you have to think more of others than yourself. Don’t think of all those times that you had to put up with people talking on the phone in the cinema, on the train, and in the queue at McDonalds. Simply imagine all the ways other people will find you annoying if you use your mobile phone.

Etiquette # 2

The good thing about people is that sooner or later someone will tell you that you are annoying them. Their request to stop talking or talk quietly might seem unreasonable but if you really want to be a model mobile phone user just follow their request.

Etiquette # 3

To stop #2 from happening, and to keep your secrets to yourself then keep your distance - 3 metres - between you and anyone else.

Etiquette # 4

Even if you are following #3 you don’t need to shout. This just makes it easier for people to hear you and much easier to annoy them.

Etiquette # 5

Remember, people don’t want to hear you talking on the phone so they certainly don’t want to hear the other person either. Don’t turn your speaker on!

Etiquette # 6

If you don’t want to be talked about keep your personal details to yourself. This means that #3 is probably not far enough from wagging ears. Either save the conversation for later or start using text messaging.

Etiquette # 7

Don’t multi-task, it could cost you your life. Don’t use the time you are spending in a queue to phone someone and certainly don’t use the mobile phone when you are driving. In many countries this is illegal but it is also dangerous. National data show mobile phones were involved in 350 fatal crashes in 2011.

Etiquette # 8
There are many places such as a library, museum, theatre, and hospital where, hopefully, common sense tells you not to use your phone.

Questions 7-14

• Complete the notes below.
• Choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER from the text for each answer.
• Write your answers in boxes 7-14 on your answer sheet.

Etiquette # 1 Don’t think about the people you have met using their phone in front of or behind you. Stop using your phone if you think people will find it 7___________  Etiquette # 2 Other people will tell you about your phone etiquette. If they don’t like it they might ask you to 8_________  Etiquette # 3 If you want to keep your 9______  to yourself then keep 10_________  Etiquette # 4 Even if you are not near anyone, that is no excuse to shout. People will still hear you. Etiquette # 5 Remember that people don’t to hear you and so they definitely don’t want to hear the person you are talking to. Etiquette # 6 If you really want to keep the conversation between the two of you then 11________  is the best way to keep people from hearing. Etiquette # 7 Trying to do too many things at once can be a problem. You know that using your mobile in a 12_________  is frowned upon but using it in your car could be fatal. In America, of all car accidents there were 13______  fatalities in 2011 because the driver was using a phone.
