一间改变命运的房间

       经济学告诉我们,最稀缺的东西最值钱。商业活动中什么最稀缺呢?古往今来无例外,真诚是最稀缺的。    

       很多年前,在一个暴风雨的晚上,有一对老夫妇走进旅馆的大厅向柜台订房。     

     “很抱歉,”柜台里的人回答说,“我们饭店已经被参加会议的团体包下了。往常碰到这种情况,我们都会把客人介绍到另一家饭店,可是这次很不凑巧,据我所知,另一家饭店也客满了。”     

       他停了一会,接着说:“在这样的晚上,我实在不敢想象你们离开这里却又投宿无门的处境,如果你们不嫌弃,可以在我的房间住一晚,虽然不是什么豪华套房,却十分干净。我今晚就待在这里完成手边的订房工作,反正晚班督察员今晚是不会来了。”    

       这对老夫妇因为造成柜台服务员的不便,显得十分不好意思,但是他们谦和有礼地接受了服务员的好意。第二天早上,当老先生下楼来付住宿费时,这位服务员依然在当班,但他婉拒道:“我的房间是免费借给你们住的,我全天待在这里,已经赚取了很多额外的钟点费,那个房间的费用本来就包含在内了。”

       老先生说:“你这样的员工,是每个旅馆老板梦寐以求的,也许有一天我会为你盖一座旅馆。”    

       年轻的柜台服务员听了笑了笑,他明白老夫妇的好心,但他只当它是个笑话。

       又过了好几年,那个柜台服务员依然在同样的地方上班,有一天他收到老先生的来信,信中清晰地叙述了他对那个暴风雨夜的记忆。老先生邀请柜台服务员到纽约去拜访他,并附上了一张来回机票。    

       几天之后,他来到了曼哈顿,于坐落在第五大道和34街之间的豪华建筑物前见到了老先生。     

       老先生指着眼前的大楼解释道:“这就是我专门为你建盖的饭店,我以前曾经提过,记得吗?”     

      “您在开玩笑吧?”服务员不敢相信地说,“都把我搞糊涂了!为什么是我?您到底是什么身份呢?”年轻的服务员显得很慌乱,说话略带口吃。    

       老先生很温和地微笑着说:“我的名字叫威廉·渥道夫·爱斯特。这其中并没有什么阴谋,因为我认为你是经营这家饭店的最佳人选。”     

       这家饭店就是著名的渥道夫·爱斯特莉亚饭店的前身,而这个年轻人就是乔治·伯特,他是这家饭店的第一任经理。     

       尽可能真诚地帮助更多的人赢得成功,成功就会来陪伴你,生活常常就是这样。

Many Chinese have been greatly shocked by the traffic accident caused by the drunk driver Sun Weiming, who has killed five and injured some others in Chengdu, Sichuan. However, such a case is not rare.

Today, the traffic accidents may have been regarded as a social problem. The car has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows actually from rude behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral(道德的) rights of others. In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless but just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one's actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of the killers go even far beyond carelessness that can be imagined.

Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to(归属于) the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can change drivers' reactions incorrectly, slow their judgment, and make them blind to the dangers that might otherwise be obvious. The experts warn that it is important for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep his/her emotions under control.

Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem isn't only put upon drivers. Street walkers regularly ignore or break traffic regulations. They are blamed in most vehicle walker accidents, and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject(受…支配) to the basic rules of the road.

Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicles have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through regular road inspections. In addition, speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to make people believe that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.
