有一種尊重，晚三秒 再關門 There is a kind of respect: close the door three seconds later.

    家裡的洗衣機脫水時，裡面發出很響的「咣咣」聲。維修人員上門拆開一看，是一枚硬幣掉進了機器裡。維修人員將那枚硬幣取出後，順便將洗衣機內部清洗了一遍，說洗衣機用久了要清洗，否則會滋生病菌，沾到衣服上對身體不太好。洗衣機修好了，師傅提著維修箱出門，跟我說再見。
My washing machine made a heavy clang when dehydrating, and a technician took the machine apart and found there was a coin dropped in somewhere. The technician took the coin out and then cleaned up the inner part of the machine without much extra trouble. He also advise me of cleaning the machine in due course; otherwise, it would propagate germs which might be harmful to body if the germs were to attach the clothes so washed. When having got his job done, he picked his tool kit, proceeded to the door and said goodbye to me.
    我並沒有立刻「砰」地關上門，而是扶著門對著樓梯口的師傅道再會。我開著門目送他，直到他拐過樓梯口，才輕輕關上門。
When he walked out of my house I didn't slam the door behind him immediately; instead, I left the door ajar and said goodbye to him, seeing him off until he approached and turn off the stairs, then I closed the door slightly.
    我能想到，此刻即使外面寒風割面，這位維修師傅的心裡也是暖的。因為他前腳離開，背後隨之而來的並不是「砰」的一聲沉重而冰冷的關門聲。他得到了別人對他晚三秒鐘再關門的尊重。
I could imagine that the technician would have felt warm in his heart even there was chilly wind outside blowing on his face, for he didn't receive a heavy and cold bang of shutting a door instantly behind him, but rather a respect of closing the door to him three seconds later.
