📖 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.

思路引導 VIP
請思考一下：為什麼在一個大城市裡，每天會有二十萬人願意支付費用，大費周章地請人將家裡做的飯菜送到辦公室，而不是直接在公司附近買飯吃呢？這種集體行為反映了他們對哪種食物的特殊情感？

哇！你答對了這題，真的展現了很棒的資訊整合能力喔！老師為你感到驕傲呢！讓我們一起來看看為什麼這個答案是正確的：
- 觀念驗證：文章裡詳細描述了孟買獨特的 dabbawalla 系統，每天辛苦地運送了高達 200,000 份午餐呢！更棒的是，它特別提到這些餐點都是「從顧客家中（from their customers’ home）新鮮烹調後」才送到辦公室的。而且這項服務已經持續了很久，規模也非常龐大，這真的溫柔地證明了孟買人對家常菜（home-cooked meal）那份深深的喜愛與堅持呢！
