题目内容:
In a restaurant, a bug (虫子) suddenly flew in and landed on a woman. She started shouting out of fear. With a panicked (惊慌失措的) face, she started jumping around with both her hands shaking. Trying to scare away the bug. Her reaction was so strong that it panicked everyone in her group.
She finally got the bug off of her. But then it landed on another woman in the group. Now it was her turn to continue the drama (戏剧).
A waiter rushed to their table. The second woman somehow managed to get the bug on the waiter. The waiter stood firm and looked at the bug on his shirt. He carefully picked up the bug with his fingers and threw it out of a window. People around him were impressed.
Watching the drama go on, I started wondering: Was the bug responsible for their behavior. If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed (打扰)?
He solved the problem perfectly without any chaos. It was not the bug, but the inability of those people to deal with the disturbance caused by the bug that disturbed the woman.
I realized that it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but my inability to deal with the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturb me, but my inability to deal with the chaos caused by the traffic jams that disturbs me.
I understood. I should not react in life. I should always respond. The customers reacted, however, the waiter responded. Reactions are always instinctive (本能的), well responses tend to be well thought out.
