今天感觉很精神(Feeling sharp today)

从神话到现代媒体，蜥蜴经常被描绘成可怕的爬行动物。事实证明，它们并不像故事可能让你相信的那么危险。今天是世界蜥蜴日，是了解这些冷血生物的绝佳时机。这些动物有7000多种，已经适应了从沙漠到热带雨林的各种环境。以壁虎为例。这些小登山者有专门的脚趾垫，可以爬上墙壁，甚至在天花板上行走。然后是变色龙，以其变色皮肤而闻名。虽然许多人认为这一切都是为了融入，但变色龙也会改变颜色来交流和调节体温。

From mythology to modern media, lizards have often been portrayed as scary reptiles. As it turns out, they're not as dangerous as stories might lead you to believe. Today, World Lizard Day, is the perfect time to learn about these cold-blooded creatures. With more than 7,000 species, these animals have adapted to a wide range of environments—from deserts to rainforests. Take the gecko, for example. These little climbers have specialised toe pads that let them scale walls and even walk on ceilings. Then there's the chameleon, known for its colour-changing skin. While many think it's all about blending in, chameleons also change colour to communicate and regulate their temperature.
