Serie Cantanti italiani #3 - Have you ever listen about "Raffaella Carrà"?

The Fox and the Crow is one of Aesop's Fables, numbered 124 in the Perry Index. There are early Latin and Greek versions and the fable may even have been portrayed on an ancient Greek vase.[1] The story is used as a warning against listening to flattery.

In the fable a crow has found a piece of cheese and retired to a branch to eat it. A fox, wanting it for himself, flatters the crow, calling it beautiful and wondering whether its voice is as sweet to match. When it lets out a caw, the cheese falls and is devoured by the fox.

从前，有个孩子在山上放羊。他看到很多人在山下干活儿，想捉弄一下别人，就故意大声喊叫:“狼来了！狼来了！”山下的人听到喊叫声，立刻跑上山来。可是，山上根本没有狼，是放羊的孩子在撒谎，人们被他欺骗了。

过了几天，人们又听见这个孩子在山上喊:“狼来了！狼来了！”大家又跑到山上去，结果还是没有狼，人们又被撒谎的孩子欺骗了。

又过了几天，狼真的来了。这个孩子又喊:“狼来了！狼来了！狼真的来了！”山下的人们听到喊声，再也没有人理他了。结果他的许多羊都被狼吃了。

Life Lessons from Aesop's Fables

Episode 6: The Lion & the Mouse

British writer Bill Bryson once wrote that "London is a city of endless possibility" — and perhaps, endless traffic?

The UK capital is the most congested city in Europe, according to transport analytics company Inrix.

The company looked at data from different cities around the world, and found that drivers in London spent an average of 101 hours sitting in traffic in 2024. That's up from 99 hours in 2023, and 97 hours in 2022.

According to Inrix, these delays cost the city more than $4.8 billion a year — or about $1,200 for each of London's 4 million drivers.

Inrix says London's bad traffic congestion is caused by the "concentration of population, employment and economic activity."

But although it's Europe's most congested city for the fourth year in a row, London has improved in the global rankings. It was third in the world in 2023, but is now in fifth place globally. It is still, however, the only European city in the top five.

Istanbul has jumped to first place, up from sixth, with drivers in the Turkish city spending an average of 105 hours in traffic per year.

New York and Chicago are next on the list, followed by Mexico City in fourth place.

Inrix also calculated each city's "downtown speed" — that is, the speed at which a driver can expect to travel 1.6 kilometers in the center of the city during morning rush hour.

For each of the top five cities, the downtown speed was under 25 kilometers an hour.
