A panda walks into a café. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air. 

“Why?” asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes towards the exit. 

The panda produces a badly punctuated加標點符號 wildlife manual手冊 and tosses扔 it over his shoulder.

“I am a panda,” he says, at the door. “Look it up.” 

The waiter turns to the relevant相關聯 entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation. 

“Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal. Native to China. Eats, shoots嫩枝 and leaves樹葉(leaf的複數).”

A panda walks into a café. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.

So, punctuation標點符號 really does matter, even if it is only occasionally偶爾 a matter of life and death. 　　

In 2003 Lynne Truss published Eats, Shoots and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation標點符號. 

The book became a runaway success in the U.K., hitting number one on the best-seller lists and prompting extraordinary headlines such as “Grammar Book Tops Bestseller List” (BBC News). 

This is a book for people who love punctuation標點符號 and get upset when it is mishandled. 

The above passage is printed on its back cover.

一隻貓熊走進一家咖啡館。 他點了一個三明治，吃了它，然後拔出一把槍，向空中開了兩槍。 “為什麼？” 當貓熊走向出口時，困惑的服務生問道。 貓熊製作了一本野生動物手冊，並把它扔過他的肩膀。 “我是一隻貓熊，”他在門口說。 “查一下。” 服務生轉向相關條目，果然找到了解釋。 ““Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal. Native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.” ⬅️（在正確標準符號裡應該是：Native to China. Eats shoots and leaves.”吃嫩根與樹葉，但因為標點符號使用錯誤就變成：吃、開槍s、離開）
因此，標點符號確實很重要，即使它只是偶爾生死攸關的問題。
