But“How are you？”is also a very unusual question. It often doesnt need an answer. The person who asks“How are you?”hopes to hear the answer“Fine”even if the persons friend isnt fine. In fact, they are not really a question or an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello”or“Hi”.Sometimes people also dont say exactly what they mean, For example, when someone asks“Do you agree？”the other person might think，“No，I disagree. I think youre wrong.” But it isnt very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say,“Im afraid ”Its a nicer way to disagree.People also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many phone talks finish when one person says“I have to go now.”Often, the person who wants to finish the phone call gives an excuse,“Someones at the door.”The excuse might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to finish the phone call simply doesnt want to talk anymore, but it isnt polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesnt hurt the other person.When they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, thinking of finishing a talk, people dont say exactly what they are thinking about. Its an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it is part of the game of language.（1）“How are you？”is another way of saying“Hello”or“Hi”. （2）It is polite to say“No，I disagree. I think you are wrong”if you dont agree with
