Context：don't translate the Italic text, it is the context to give you a little bit background of the question.
An understanding of numbers is often viewed as a distinctly human faculty — a hallmark of our intelligence that, along with language, sets us apart from all other animals.
But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Honeybees count landmarks when navigating toward sources of nectar. Lionesses tally the number of roars they hear from an intruding pride before deciding whether to attack or retreat. Some ants keep track of their steps; some spiders keep track of how many prey are caught in their web.
Question:
One species of frog bases its entire mating ritual on number: If a male calls out — a whining pew followed by a brief pulsing note called a chuck — his rival responds by placing two chucks at the end of his own call. The first frog then responds with three, the other with four, and so on up to around six, when they run out of breath.

From Chinese to English: Better believe, a life back, we had a union vow. In this life, our love story won’t end up otherwise. Better wait all my life for you to find me. Already so close to you, no way can I keep my distance, Simply because, through the crowd, I had to steal a glance at you again. Idioms: 1. We’d better kick ass or our losing streak won’t end. 2. You don’t mean what you say. Quit pulling my leg.

有一种蛙的交配礼仪完全基于数字。若有一只雄蛙想先声夺人——一阵嘀咕，紧随其后是咯咯的一个脉动音符——对手的回应呢，嘀咕后，就即来两个咯咯。先声的雄蛙当然还以颜色，回敬三个咯咯。彼此拉锯至六个咯咯为止，因为大家都已经沒气了。
