通过这篇播客，我们知道了有一些动物它进化成黑白相间的样子是有些原因的。但绝不是单一的原因造成的。比如说斑马它的黑白相间的颜色可以让蚊虫产生视觉上的错觉，而不再叮咬它。比如说熊猫它黑白相间的颜色可以很好的隐藏，不被捕猎者发现。

欧洲央行将在12月连续第三次加息75个基点，以回应管委会中更为鹰派的声音。我们认为，欧洲央行将推迟作出开始减持巨额债券决定的日期，或将日期定在2023年第二季度末或第三季度初，以回应管委会中较为鸽派的声音。
此外，欧洲央行将为减持债券或量化紧缩制定广泛的指引，包括设定每月到期债券数额上限，最初设定为每月100亿至200亿欧元。
尽管欧洲央行仍处于依据数据的模式，但似乎有可能进一步加息，而且幅度可能会放缓。

Jorge is shopping at a clothing store.

Salesperson (Lily):
This jacket fits you really well! Would you like to size up and try a bigger size?

Customer (Jorge, confused):
Size up? You mean bigger size?

Lily (nodding):
Yes, exactly! "Size up" just means trying a larger size than the one you have.

Jorge (scratching his head):
Hmm… Size up? You mean, when I grow bigger?

Lily (laughing):
Haha, no, no! "Size up" just means trying a bigger jacket. Not growing, just a bigger size!

Jorge (still confused):
So… Size up means I wear bigger clothes, but I don’t grow taller?

Lily (smiling):
Yes! "Size up" means getting a bigger size of the same jacket. You don’t need to grow taller for that!

Jorge (nodding, still unsure):
Okay, okay, I try bigger size jacket. I think I understand!

Jorge (curious):
By the way, your English is really good. How do you speak so well?

Lily:
Well, I took speaking lessons with Teacher Smith on italki! She’s amazing for improving English.

Jorge:
Really? How I book  lesson with her?

Lily:
It’s super easy, just click on her profile on italki and book a speaking lesson!

Jorge:
Wow, easy? I book it now!
