二：习题训练
（A）

Due to a scheduling accident, one Waffle House worker was left alone to run the entire
restaurant on a Sunday night.
Ethan Crispo was just one of about 30 hungry customers who wanted food at midnight. After


sitting at his table for a while, he noticed there was just one upset employee available to take orders,
cook food, clean tables and manage the cash register.
The 24-year-old patron was losing hope of ever getting a meal. The employee who was
recognized only by his name tag reading “Ben”-seemed to be on the edge of panic until Crispo saw
him speaking to a male customer in a blue shirt sitting at the counter. After a brief conversation, Ben
handed him an apron (
围裙
) and the man got to work washing dishes.
“It was a transition so smooth. I initially assumed it was a staff member returning to his shift,”
Crispo told . “It wasn’t. It was a kind stranger.”
A couple of minutes later, a woman in high heels and a stylish dress walked behind the counter
to make more coffee. She then took a few orders before resigning herself to clearing tables.
Suddenly, a third customer in a red shirt marched over to help as well, though Crispo failed to catch
his name or take a photo of the man at work.
The term “customer service” took on a whole new meaning that night. “It was the most
fascinating thing,” Crispo said. “It was just one of the wildest instances of really, really cool people
just coming together. It made a difference to many people that night. Certainly, their actions made an
impact on me,” he added. “Humanity isn’t just good
－
it’s great.”
