三菱日联银行经济学家称，美联储不太可能单独扭转看跌趋势。在美联储更新鹰派政策后，美元一直保持强势。但三菱日联银行认为，美联储将在明年2月再次放缓加息步伐至25个基点。美联储的鹰派政策更新在短期内为美元提供更多支撑，但自从10月CPI回落以来，美元的走跌趋势已不大可能单靠美联储来扭转了。

Animais de estimação

この前UNIQLOにいって、「ダブルフェイスシャツジャケット」を買ったの。あれすごいかるいし、かわいいし、かたちもいいしほんとおすすめだよ。 なんか、デザイナーのジルサンダーとUNIQLOがコラボレーションして「+J」っていうの作ったらしんだけど、その中のひとつが「ダブルフェイスシャツジャケット」なんだよね。 

I went to UNIQLO the other day and bought a "Double-Faced Shirt Jacket". It's very light, cute, and has a nice shape. The designer Jil Sander and UNIQLO have collaborated to create a brand called "+J". One of the items is the "Double Face Shirt Jacket.

私、全然知らなかったんだけど、10年以上前にジルサンダーとUNIQLOコラボしていたらしいの。 で、2020年秋にまたコラボレーションが突然復活したみたいなんだけど、服のうばい合いがエグくてびっくりしちゃった！ 2020年ってもうコロナがはやってたのにー、店の中に人がたくさんいる写真がSNSにアップされたり、ニュースになったりしたんだよね。でもたぶん、今回の2021年冬のコレクションがジル・サンダーとの最後のコラボレーションらしいよ。 

 I heard that Jil Sander and UNIQLO collaborated over 10 years ago, but I didn't know about it. The collaboration was suddenly revived again in the fall of 2020, but it was a battle. Even though the corona was not over, pictures of many people in the store were posted on social media and made the news. The Winter 2021 collection was probably the last collaboration between Jil Sander and UNIQLO.

私が買ったジャケットなんだけど、これは2021年冬のコレクションのもので、まだお店にのこってたんだよね。で、もともと14900円だったのがセールしてて、12900円からの7990円からの5990円からの4990円になってて、だから、10,000円引きで買うことができたのー！めっちゃ安くない！？

The jacket I bought this time was from the Winter 2021 collection, and it was still in the store. The price was 14,900 yen → 12,900 yen → 7,990 yen → 5,990 yen → 4,990 yen! I was able to buy it with a discount of 10,000 yen. Isn't it so cheap?!

海外のUNIQLOはちょっとわかんないんだけど、日本のUNIQLOって、全部じゃないけど金土日は結構安くなるからほんと、おすすめ！もし、日本に来た時にUNIQLOに行くんだったら、絶対金土日に行ったほうがいいよ！ 

I don't know about other countries, but in Japan, UNIQLO offers discounted prices on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for some items, but not all. If you are going to go to UNIQLO when you come to Japan, it is better to go on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.

MARGARET: Mr. Wilson, I’d like you to meet 
Dr. Edward Smith.
MR. WILSON: It’s nice to meet you, Dr. Smith.
DR. SMITH: Pleasure to meet you, too.
MARGARET: Dr. Smith is an economist. He just finished
writing a book on international trade.
MR. WILSON: Oh? That’s my field, too. I work for the 
United Nations.
DR. SMITH: In the Development Program, by any chance?
MR. WILSON: Yes. How did you guess?
DR. SMITH: I’ve read your articles on technical assistance. 
They’re excellent

LANGUAGE NOTES
• Mr. Wilson, I’d like you … Notice the rising intonation on “Mr. Wilson,” which is used 
to address someone. Listen for the “d” in “I’d like.” This means I would like, which is 
very different from I like. (“I’d like” means the same as “I would like” or “I want.”)
• Dr. Smith is an economist. Notice the stress on “economist.” This content word has 
new information, so it is emphasized. There are four syllables in “economist,” with the 
stress on the second syllable (e-CON-o-mist).
• He just finished writing … “just” means the very recent past. “Just” is usually used 
with a simple past verb because the action is complete. However, it can also be used 
with the present perfect (He’s just finished writing …).
• Development program. Since these two words make a compound noun, the main 
stress falls on “development.”
• By any chance? Means the same as “possibly.” Notice the rising intonation, which is 
used in yes/no questions to confirm that something is true.
