请问一下以下几句的翻译, 感谢!!
原文:
when it comes to fireflies, females are drawn to males whose flash
is rapid and strong. But if the gals like bigger brighter displays,
what keeps males from evolving a light show as luminous as a guy in
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
a convertible with a dozen gold chains around his neck?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^这句!
下面这段我也看得不是很懂, @@
To determine why fireflies don't go all out when it comes to illumination,
the Tufts team set out to uncover the hidden costs of producing light.
They found that flashing doesn't put much of a strain on a firefly's energy
reserves. So it's not that they're trying to avoid burn-out〞they're trying
to avoid becoming take-out. Because bugs who flash too fast tend to attract
more than the light-of-their-lives. They attract predatory fireflies looking
for a snack.
