    A new computer treatment is being used to deal with obesity in children. Connected to a small dining set, consisting of (包括) scales and a plate, a mini computer teaches children how to eat and reminds them when to stop.

    　 “In very fat people, hunger signals from the stomach to the brain stop functioning. But the new computer system teaches the children how to receive these messages again,” says Dr. Julian Hamilton-Shield, the Bristol University senior lecturer leading the treatment trials.(实验)。

    　 The computer , called a Mandometer, records and stores the weight loss from the plate when children eat. As the food is leaving the plate , a curve( 曲线)is produced on the computer screen suggesting whether the child is eating too quickly.

    　　Beijing－A recent Chinese blockbuster(轰动的作品)“A World Without Thieves” is based on the experiences of a young migrant worker(民工)carrying 60,000 yuan on a train packed with thieves．But while the image(形象)of a warm-hearted but somewhat naive migrant worker may have made film fans chuckle(偷着乐), it’s a sure bet that most of China’s migrant workers are yet to step into a cinema to admire it．

    　　“Forty yuan a ticket? I can’t afford it,” said Shen Jie, a migrant worker at a construction site in Dongzhimen, east Beijing．

    　　Shen found it hard to remember when he last watched a film, or what it was about．“It must be 10 years ago,” he said．

    　　Though they are the builders of the nation’s theaters and cinemas, a limited cultural life is common among China’s 120 million migrant workers．

    　　Shen arrived from East China’s Zhejiang Province in1991．Life was better then; money seemed to come more easily．“Now, as more and more workers are rushing to the capital, it’s too hard to earn money, and none of us dare think about watching films,” he said．

    　　For many like Shen, the dream is earning enough to pay for their children’s education so they can find jobs in the cities and say goodbye to the hardships of rural life forever．This drives them to work hard and save as much as possible．

    　　With a monthly salary of less than 500 yuan, Shen has to send money home to his little son and silver-haired parents．

    　　In Shen’s small dormitory, which he shares with seven other co-workers, there is a well-thumbed copy of a magazine published in 1998．

    　　A recent survey by local media revealed(显示)that 80 percent of migrant workers spent their spare time sleeping and chatting because of exhaust and a lack of income．The same survey found that 47 percent of migrant workers have to work for more than 10 hours a day．Around 40 percent do not even possess a book, and nearly 60 percent say they are dissatisfied with their cultural life．

    　　Like many of Shen’s co-workers, reading newspapers and hanging out in Beijing’s streets provide evening entertainment．

    　　In Sonoma County, California, growers are planting grapevines in a new way．As they plant the vines, they add a package of water called DRiWATER．This method of planting grapevines along with the water supply saves time and work．It gives the plant enough water to keep growing．The workers can go on to other chores．

    　　DRiWATER is a package of jelled(凝结的)water．It melts slowly, watering the plant for two or three months．DRiWATER is a 100％ natural, non-poisonous product used for the long-term watering of plants．It was invented by a well-known food chemist who recognized the potential of a filler product he was using to thicken peanut butter．He tested and applied his theory that water could be released over time as naturally occurring microbes(微生物)in the soil fed on the filler and released the water into the soil．

    　　The inventor, Harold Jensen, tried for a long time to get the right recipe．He and his family worked nights and weekends testing different formulas．Jensen finally found the right formula and patented it．

    　　What are the ingredients in DRiWATER? It is made up of 97.85％ water, 2％ vegetable gum, and 0.15％ aluminum sulfate．When the DRiWATER is planted in the soil, the water is released as bacteria eat the jell．

    　　Buchanan Vineyard Services has bought ten thousand packages of DRiWATER．They will plant the jelled water with their new grapevines．

    　　What about countries like Egypt that have large deserts? Maybe DRiWATER will help grow trees in the desert．Two million trees have been planted near a town in the Sahara Desert．Two quarts were planted with each tree．The tree must live on the water for months until its roots touch ground water．Harold Jensen hopes to see forests spring up in the deserts．This is the reason that he invented DRiWATER．Seedlings, DRiWATER, and desert may be the perfect fit．
