【英音模仿秀】国会通过议案 美国政府重开

模仿文本：  

"Congratulations, America. You'll no longer broke, just broken." That was a text of one Tweet this morning after US Republicans and Democrats¹ approved an 11th hour deal to end the partial government shutdown and pull the world's biggest economy back from the brink² of a potential debt default. In a moment, we asked what the effect of all that political wrangling³ might have on America's traditional role as a financial safe haven⁴.
