"
things vary (naturally - e.g. the moths)
some survive better (e.g. the moths)
the surviver's variation is preserved more than those which survive less (because the surviver survives more)
the net change is toward the better variation
it has ""evolved"" into the kind with the newer variation
it has another different variation
less than 100% of the versions of which survive better
only some of the new versions propagate
the net change is towards the preferred version of this 2nd variation
