27、teries running flashlights or smartphones. In these systems, the battery can be printed on a page. The batterys power consists of living bacteria.Paper electronics are simple to make and inexpensive, notes study leader Seokheun Choi, an engineer at Binghamton University. They need no electrical outl

28、et to recharge. They just need more bacteria, which can be found everywhere including dirty water.“Most batteries use chemicals to generate electricity. Substituting bacteria can be an advantage,” Choi says.“They are cheap and self-repairing.” What paper-based batteries wont do is generate much powe

29、r. They do, however create enough to run small devices in faraway or dangerous places such as a battlefield . They might also find use in medicine .

By refilling more microbes, as needed, scientists can keep these fuel cells running.Lab tests have shown that the new battery can produce a current. Now, Choi and his team are looking at ways to increase the

36、nknown, and mainstream theories fall into two different camps.One widely held theory is that language came about as an evolutionary adaptation. That was where the idea of natural selection came into play, which was the belief that the specific physical features of a population made that population m

37、ore likely to survive its environment, like the turtle and its shell. On one hand, humans needed to communicate with each other in order to hunt, farm and defend themselves successfully from the surrounding hostile environment. Being able to communicate by using language gave the human species a dis

38、tinct survival advantage. On the other hand, language was needed for social interaction, according to those who subscribed to the adaptation theory.In their paper “Natural Language and Natural Selection,” researchers Steven Pinker and Paul Bloom theorized that a series of calls or gestures evolved o

40、are nearby.” One day, a storm came in and the hunter noticed that thunder scared the deer away. As a result, the hunter went hungry until the storm passed. Over time, the same hunter also learned to recognize the warning signs for bad weather dark skies and increased wind. Early man realized that wh

41、en the sky darkened and the wind picked up, he needed to tell his hunting partner to speed up the pursuit of the deer. Therefore, he came up with a series of sounds that refer to both the deer and the bad weather.That series of sounds was the beginning of an evolutionary adaptation that eventually b

42、ecame language.As humans learned more about how to best survive, they developed a need to convey these survival methods to their population. To be brief, thats the adaptation theory.32.
