8、 in and use energy to maintain their bodies, to grow, to obtain more energy, and to reproduce. Since the evolutionarily successful individual is one that leaves descendants in future generations, natural selection favours those individuals that can channel the most energy into producing offspring. T

9、he use of energy in other activities such as feeding, fighting, or growing is selectively advantageous only so far as these activities result in the organisms accumulating more energy to produce offspring.Each individual has an energy incomeall of the energy that it acquires during its lifetime. It

10、also has an energy budget, its allotment of different amounts of energy to various activities. The most evolutionarily successful organisms are those which are most effective in conversion of energy to offspring. This does not mean that organisms use all their energy directly to produce offspring. F

11、or example, suppose that a tree converts some of its energy into growing a large root system, the energy thus spent cannot be used to produce offspring. Its large root system may enable the tree to obtain a great deal of water and minerals from the soil and so to produce more leaves, another diversi

12、on of energy away from the production of offspring. However, all of the leaves that the tree produces may then enable the tree to synthesize more food than it would have otherwise, and so allow it to make up for some of its previous energy expenditure by producing more offspring in the end. Thus org

13、anisms make energy investment which may ultimately yield energy gains that can be reinvested in the production of offspring. Sometimes these investments will turn out to be selectively disadvantageous because they postpone production of offspring. If the organism meets an early death, it will never

14、get a chance to reproduce. So any item in an organisms energy budget must have the potential to produce an ultimate productive gain that is equal to the risks involved in diverting energy away from the immediate production of offspring.（分数：7.00）(1).The most evolutionarily successful individual is on

20、ainst-female problem but a major issue in same-sex relationships as wellis a public health dilemma that crosses boundaries of wealth, race and class. A decade ago, the standard question for a woman in an abusive relationship was: “Why dont you just leave?“ But evidence is mounting that “just leaving

21、“ can be dangerous; some men become revengeful when a woman stands her ground.

23、f punishment for the batterer. In the absence of punishment, other approaches dont have much impact. Second, there has to be some effort at reform-treatment programs.“ Over time, educating batterers that their behaviour is not acceptable can change cultural norms. Data suggest that, although many ba

24、tterers drop out of treatment programs, 80 percent of those who stay stop battering, at least for a year. “Third, there must be mechanisms that focus on the womans safety.“ Shelters help, but so do temporary restraining orderscivil court orders aimed at keeping the batterer away from his victim. Ove

25、r time, Merry said, “the law acts not just by imposing sanctions but also by creating normative standards for how people ought to treat each other.“ In recent years, the number of restraining orders has soared in many states, including Massachusetts. Restraining orders may not deter someone how is h

In some areas, such as Southern California and Seattle, Washington, local governments are encouraging companies to start telecommuting programs in order to reduce rushour congestion and improve air quality.But these benefits do not come easily. Making a telecommuting program work requires car

A computer programmer form New York cities moves to the tranquil Adirondack Mountains and stays in contact with her office vi

An accountant stays home to care for her sick child; she hooks up her telephone modem connections and does office work between calls to the doctor.These are powerful images, but they are a limited reflecti

Before a certain age, young children cannot recognize, much less respect, the necessary boundaries between work and family. Additional child support is nec

37、essary if the parent is to get any work done.Management, too, must separate the myth from the reality. Although the media has paid a great deal of attention to telecommuting, in most cases it is employees situation, not the availability of technology, that precipitates a telecommuting arrangement.Th
