Donny: Wuqiong, I heard you got your driver's license!
WQ: 是啊，昨天我已经开车上路啦!
Donny: So how did it go?
WQ: 唉，别提了!我开的那条路上出车祸，结果，开车的、骑车的、走路的，都想看热闹，最后，整条街都堵住了!对了Donny，这些看热闹的人，用英文怎么说呢?
Donny: 英文叫rubberneck。
WQ: rubberneck?橡胶脖子?
Donny: 你想啊，那些看热闹，围观的人，they stretch their necks to watch what's happening, right?
WQ: 哦……我明白了，伸长脖子看热闹的人好像长了橡胶脖子，所以叫他们rubberneck!哈哈，真形象!
Donny: Right! rubberneck也可以当动词。你刚才说，大家看热闹，整条街大堵车，在英文里就是“The traffic was bumper-to-bumper because of rubbernecking.”
WQ: bumper-to-bumper? bumper不是汽车保险杠么?
Donny: Exactly! So bumper-to-bumper means cars are moving so slowly that their bumpers are almost touching.
WQ: 我明白了，bumper-to-bumper， 汽车一辆紧挨着一辆，慢慢往前拱。I was stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic，郁闷死了!
Donny: Wuqiong，那车祸到底严不严重?
WQ: 特严重!六辆车撞在一起了!
Donny: Ouch...a six-car pileup!
WQ: Pileup 就是连环车祸么?
Donny: That's Right!
WQ: 我跟你说，这个pileup里，有两辆奥迪，一辆奔驰，一辆宝马，好像还有……
Donny: Wuqiong, 你看得这么清楚，真不愧是a good rubberneck! Okay, new driver, tell me what you've learned today!
WQ: 第一，看热闹的人叫rubberneck;
第二，堵车可以说bumper-to-bumper;
第三，连环车祸是pileup!
