26、t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” expects to hear the answer “Fine” even if the person isnt fine.

27、mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person may be thinking “No, I dont.” It isnt polite to disagree strongly, so he might say, “Im not so sure.” 32 People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversation
