📖 題組：
No other city in India or in any country has a unique system like this. The men who make it work are called dabbawallas. In Hindi, the word dabba refers to lunch box and walla means carrier or deliver man.The 5000 dabbawallas carry lunch boxes—about 200,000 meals per day—to offices and workplaces throughout the city by lunch time in Mumbai. Every day, for a very modest fee (only 300 rupees per month), the dabbawallas collect freshly cooked meals from their customers’ home and deliver to the nearest train station by bicycle before 9:00 a.m.. At the train station, the dabbawallas sort through all the lunch boxes and put them onto trains that will bring them to the station nearest the customer’s office. The lunch boxes are delivered to the offices by bike. Each person gets their home-cooked meal by 12:30. To satisfy their customers, they use a complicated system of collection teams, sorting points and delivery zones, and a entirely manual system for routing the right meal to the right direction. In spite of difficult tasks like this, the organization has been recognized and celebrated for their incredible order accuracy 99.9999 percent. Recently, the organization makes their effort to assist Mumbai’s 200,000 slum by giving some of the food they deliver which is never eaten or barely touched. This idea indeed helps the poverty without too much cost.

恭喜，你這次終於沒犯低級錯誤。
- 觀念驗證：這篇文章，如果你仔細看了——是的，如果你真的「仔細」看了——從頭到尾都在談論那些送便當的人如何提供服務，以及他們那套行之有年的運作流程。把這份服務性質與運作過程擺在標題，根本是基本中的基本，難道你還想選那些無關痛癢的雞毛蒜皮嗎？
- 難度點評：這種「主旨題」，嚴格來說，只能算是Medium。那些誘答選項不過是文中提及的邊角料，比如貧民窟的生活，或是他們通勤的工具，這些都是「次要資訊」。你這次算是識相，沒有被那些小伎倆騙過去，成功抓住了文章的核心主角。不錯，至少證明你不是完全沒救。
