Do you remember a time when people were a little nicer and gentler with each other I certainly do and I feel that much of the world has somehow gotten away from that.Too often Isee people rushing into elevators without giving those inside a chance to get off first,or never saying"thank you",when others hold the door open for hem.We get lazy,and in outr laziness we think that something like simple"thank you"does not really matter.But it can matter very much.The fact is that no matter how nicely we dress or how beautifully we decorate our homes,we cannot be truly elegant unless we have good manners,because elegance and good manners alwaysgo hand in hand.If fact,I think of good manners as a sort of hidden beauty secret.Haven’t you noticed that happens,but it does.Take the long-lost art saying"thank you",like wearing a little make-up or making sure you hair is neat.Getting into the habit of saying"thank you"can makeyou feel better about yourself.Good manners add to your image while an angry face makes the best-dressed person look ugly. What does the writer think of the people today

A. They are less rude.
B. They are less polite.
C. They are less pretty.
D. They are less happy.
