“ 6 ”, the receptionist said, “I can’t send a nice couple like you out into rain at one o’clock in the morning. Would you like to sleep in my room It is not exactly a suite (套间) but it will be 7 to make you 8 comfortable for the night.”
The couple refused the 9 , “We can’t take your place on this rainy night.” The receptionist said, “Don’t worry about me. I will make out just fine,” and kept inviting the old couple 10 for night. So the couple agreed.
Next morning, as the elderly man paid the bill, he said to the receptionist, “You are kind of manager who should be boss of a best hotel. Maybe someday I will build 11 for you.” The receptionist looked at them and smiled. Three of them had good laugh.
Two years passed. During these two years, the receptionist spent all his time 12 hard and had almost forgotten about the incident. One day, he received a letter from the old man. In the letter, the old man reminded him 13 the stormy night and invited the receptionist to meet him in New York.
They met in New York. The old man pointed 14 a hotel and said, “That is the hotel I 15 for you to manage.”
