During the National Day holiday, highway traffic jams led people to play badminton and fish to pass the time.
Brother, I saw on my phone that some people were playing badminton on the highway. That looks so fun! Aren't highways only for driving?
Yes, Xiaobao. Because the National Day holiday traffic jam was so serious, people got out of their cars to find ways to kill time.
There was even an uncle who took out a fishing rod and caught a big fish in just three minutes! Did he really fish on the highway?
Yes, he was very lucky. There happened to be a river under that spot, so he tried, and he caught a fish right away.
Wow! It's like the highway traffic jam turned into an amusement park.
Haha, you could say that. But actually, traffic jams make people very anxious. Being able to entertain themselves like this is a way of 'finding joy in hardship.'
Yeah, that way time passes faster and everyone feels more relaxed.
