The article is written in a funny and irony tone,but it reflected the author's ciritical and angry mood
這篇文章寫了人們這樣忽視交通規(guī)則,比如
GREEN:proceed 綠燈行
YELLOW:proceed Much Faster 黃等跑
RED:proceed While Gesturing 紅燈姿態(tài)百出的穿過(guò)
語(yǔ)言用滑稽又諷刺語(yǔ)調(diào),反映作者批判憤怒的心情

I got to thinking about courtesy the other day when a woman hit me with her car.I want to stress that this was totally my fault.I was crossing a street in Miami.in a pedestrian crosstalk.and i saw the woman's car approaching.and like a total idiot I assumed she would stop.The reason I assumed this-you are going to laugh and laugh-is that there was a stop sign facing her.saying(this is verbatim quote) "STOP".I don't know waht I was thinking.In Miami it is not customary to stop for stop signs.The thinking in Miami is .if you stop for stop signs.The others motorists will assume that you are a tourist and therefore unarmaed.and they will help themselves to your money adn medically valuable organs.For the same reason.Miami drivers do not interpret traffic lights the same way as normal humans do.This is what a traffic light means to a Miami driver:
GREEN:proceed
YELLOW:proceed Much Faster
RED:proceed While Gesturing
So anyway.there I was.Mr.Stupid Head.expecting a Miami a stop for a stop sign.and the result was that she had to slam on her brakes.and I had to leap backward like a character in a rental movie on rewind.and her car banged into my left knee.I was shaken.bur fortunately I remained calm enough to remember what leading medical authorities advise you to do if you are involved in an accident.
"Punch the car" they advise.
So I did.I punched the car.and i pointed to the stop sign.and .by way of amplification.I yelled"THERE'S A STOP SIGN"!The woman then rolled down her window and expressed her keep remorse as follows:"DON'T HIT MY(UNLADYLIKE WORD)CAR.YOU (VERY UNLADYLIKE WORD)!"I should have yelled a snappy comeback.such as:"OH YEAH?WELL NOW.IN ADDITION TO MY KNEE.MY HAND HURTS!"
因?yàn)樽痔?所以沒(méi)打完.
兩個(gè)問(wèn)題是：what is the tone?
what is the mood?
