Begin on 46b, on the last line, tanu Rabanan. Learn until 47a, 15 lines from the bottom, achal demai. See tosfos dh ayn on 46b  and dh ayn on 47a until the third narrow line. Regarding the gemara that discusses being not being mechabed on derachim, see Rambam hilchos Brachos perek 7 halacha 12 that mentions kovod on entering a building but doesn’t mention kovod leaving the building. See the last line of the Kesef Mishna. See also Ohr Someach on this halacha of the Rambam that discusses this. Regarding the gemara that discusses not eating before the one who makes the bracha, what is the reason, is it because otherwise one will not be yotzei with the bracha, or because of derech eretz. After learning tosfos on 47a dh ayn there should be some clarity on this question.
