2021年終於要到尾聲了，今年可以說是起起伏伏又動盪不安，用「 a mixed bag」來形容再適合不過了。一袋糖果總是有你喜歡的，也有你想要「讓」給別人吃的口味。

今天我們精選了每個月的國際新聞頭條，帶大家回顧今年發生的國際大事，同時也要學實用的英文單字，看別人怎麼用這些字讓新聞標題精確又生動。

美國過去一年多實施的經濟政策以及解封之後的經濟復甦，不意外的推升了美國的通貨膨脹率。美國聯準會主席 Powell 在八月的演說也提到今年可能開始縮減購債，同時表示這波通膨只是暫時，且目前不會升息。通貨膨脹指的是一種貨幣的購買力在一段時間內下降的現象，一般人能夠感受到的結果就是東西變貴了。為了避免通膨失控造成物價飛漲，政府通常會嚴密的監控通膨率。今天的來賓 Greg 目前是全職投資人以及金融部落客，他要來告訴我們通膨的成因有哪些、疫情是如何造成通膨，還有政府會利用哪些方法來控制通膨率。＊＊Greg 的金融部落格 BubbleCatcher： https://bubblecatcher.substack.com ＊＊Greg 和我們聊迷因股票： https://apple.co/3BssYi9 ＊＊訪談片段在 (04:44 - 21:57) ＊＊用 Descript 來線上聽這次的訪談，會自動標示講到哪邊還可以調整語速喔！ https://bit.ly/2WEx0Fr ---- 實用單字和片語： Du jour 當下很受歡迎的東西 Inflation after COVID has had significant impact on everyone’s life, and that's why it is the topic du jour.

基因編輯技術的出現震撼了科學界，這些技術讓科學家們成功地讓植物能夠抵抗更嚴峻的氣候，也讓經濟動物更不容易生病。隨之而來的議題，像是基因改造動植物對環境的影響、倫理道德等等都引起廣泛地討論。 2012 年橫空出世的 CRISPR-Cas9 更掀起一波基因編輯新革命。它容易操作、成本低廉，讓基因編輯的門檻降得更低，短時間之內就被廣泛地使用。發明人 Jennifer Doudna 和 Emmanuelle Charpentier 博士也在2020年因為這項技術獲得了諾貝爾獎。 CRISPR-Cas9 已經獲准用於治療例如鐮刀型貧血等人類疾病的臨床試驗，科學家們也希望在未來這項技術能夠應用於癌症的治療。曾經在 Doudna 博士實驗室協助研發 CRISPR-Cas9 的中研院生化所助研究員凌嘉鴻博士就要來和我們聊聊基因編輯技術和優勢有哪些、基因編輯的規範，還有現在與未來的應用領域。＊＊了解更多 CRISPR-Cas9： https://research.sinica.edu.tw/gene-editing-crispr-lin-chia-hung/ ＊＊了解更多凌博士的研究： https://www.ibc.sinica.edu.tw/people/investigators/principal-investigators/steven-lin/ ＊＊Doudna 博士的 TED 演講： https://bit.ly/3AQZABI ＊＊如果您需要本集 Podcast 中英對照逐字稿，請與我們聯繫： https://bit.ly/3arFHXg ＊＊訪談片段在 (04:07 - 34:09) ＊＊用 Descript 來線上聽這次的訪談，會自動標示講到哪邊還可以調整語速喔！ https://share.descript.com/view/gILQs9uQ2rO ---- 實用單字和片語： To someone / something at bay (動詞片語) 避免被某人 / 東西影響 Humans have been able to keep most bacterial infections at bay since the discovery of antibiotics such as penicillin.
