听力原文：

When you ask for help, it is important to be polite. If you think someone might refuse your request, you may ask the question in a way that the refusal won’t cause embarrassment for both of you. If a Westerner offers you something, like a seat, he may do so only once. So if you want it, say “Thank you.” or “You’re so kind.” and accept his offer.

Question: What is important when you ask for help?
