Question

Describe the war between the drivers and pedestrians as explained by the narrator in "Japan and Brazil Through A Traveler‘s Eye‘.​

Answer 1

Answer:

This so called war is pathetic as well as shocking.

The drivers do not give a second thought before charging at the pedestrians.

Explanation:

• This is a synopsis from the chapter 'Japan and Brazil Through A Traveler‘s Eye'.
• It talks about the beauty of footpaths in Brazil, they are as beautiful as the people of that country.
• But there is a cold war going on between the drivers and the pedestrians, the drivers do not care for anyone.
• The Brazilians do not rush anything at all, they walk leisurely as if roaming in a park.
• But the same citizens, when given an automobile, drive murderously fast, and target pedestrians who dare to step off the pavement.
• But the amazing thing is that, the drivers and pedestrians have no ill-will for each other.

Hence, the war is dangerous yet humorous.
