What would you do if you found

$300 on the ground? Explain.I would see if anybody in the area is looking for the money. If there was somebody looking for it, I would obviously give it to them. But if not, I would take it because it was the owner’s responsibility anyway.

If you and an elderly person got onto a bus with one seat left, what would you do? Explain.I would let the elderly person take the seat because it would be doing a favour, and taking the seat myself would be acting selfishly.

Right is something that af-fects you and others in a positive way while wrong af-fects everyone in a negative manner.

Section V (continued)4. Greetings: greetings

are considerably impor-

tant at home. My parents

take them seriously, since

in Korea, you’re supposed

with different words to

people older than you.

Whenever mom or dad

comes home, me and my

sister say ‘hello’ or ‘wel-

come back’ or something

similar.
