Read Para2 carefully, and answer the questions.
Good speakers change the way they speak in different situations. The expressions they use might depend on whom they are speaking to or how well they know each other well. It is all right to ask direct questions to your classmates because you know them well. However, if you say to your teacher, “When is the school trip?”, this might sound impolite. But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know when the school trip is?”, this will sound much more polite.
