30、away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all the times? No. The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to stop its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next mornin

31、g. According to the evolutionary theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason. The theory does not deny that sleep provides some important restorative functions(恢复功能). It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functio

32、ns at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us. So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all,

33、 when we fear that bears will nose into the tent. The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures. Why do cats, for example, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little? Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do. But cats can afford to h

34、ave long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep. Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value. Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because thei

39、. Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking.CStudents claim that essay writing is easier if the given topic requires a stand or an opinion on a general topic rather than on a specific one. This may be true in some cases, especially if the teacher requires wri

40、ting about a personal opinion on a general topic compared to a specific topic. Finding substantial(主要的) resources for an assigned topic is also a challenging task.There are different types and topics for essays, but essay writing always has a basic format that has been part of the writing tradition.

41、 The format includes the introduction, body of the essay, and the conclusion. Once the essay has the defined basic structure, the student can then experiment on the introduction, expand the body, and improve the conclusion based on facts.
