To help a 7-year-old overcome bedwetting, Dr. Howard Bennett reaches for red water balloons and a superhero named Bladderman. Bedwetting is a problem for many children age 6 or older.
Alarms and medicines are available, but understanding how their bodies work for many kids is the key to staying dry. Bennett published a book that’s aimed directly at children, not just their parents to help understand bedwetting so that children understand accidents aren’t their fault-it’s not a matter of willpower but of biology-and to outline research-backed steps they can take to help stay dry.
Bedwetting is hard on youngsters’ self-esteem (自尊). They may decline sleepovers or feel anxious about camp, such as doing their own laundry, to hide the problem. Bennett even had a 9-year-old patient whose younger brother discovered his bedwetting and used it blackmail.
Children usually get nighttime bladder control between ages 3 and 5. The brain and bladder must learn to work together: First, the bladder signals the brain that it’s filling. The brain then either signals back for the bladder to relax and hold more overnight, or signals the child to awaken. Boys are twice as likely as girls to experience delays in nighttime bladder control.
For children who don’t want to wait it out, there are ways to help. Most common are alarms that make a sound when they sense wetness. The alarms, which cost from $ 60 to $200, can help train children to wake up. “But the education is important,” stresses Dr. Patrick McKenna. Good training in how the bladder works and how to control it can meet the devices’ effect.

If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives - and the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do - as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from the Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m pretty sure how it will happen in future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read - say, sports and international news.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media. They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresee that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen. And they will rely on each other.
1.In the writer’s opinion, in the future __________.
A.more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news
B.newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer
C.newspapers will cover less scientific research.
D.more and more people will read newspapers
2.What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself?
A.Sports and international news. B.A menu of all the news.
C.The most important news. D.What you are interested in.
3.From the text, we can infer ______________.
A.newspapers will win the competition among the different media
B.newspapers will stay with us together with other media
C.television will take the place of newspaper
D.the writer believe some media will die out
4.The underlined phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means ___________.
A.depend on B.live on C.fight with D.kill off

Third-generation mobile phones, known as 3G, are the next big step for the telecom industry. Data speed in 3G networks is much quicker than that in present technology. This means users can have high-speed Internet access and enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones.
“Mobile data is not a dream; it’s not an option but a requirement,” said Len Lauer, head of a US communications company, Sprint PCS, at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month.
With 3G, you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday’s news; a 3G phone can receive video news programs, updated four times a day. Internet access will also be much quicker, making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home.
Face-to-face video calls
Don’t worry about getting lost. 3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset.
However, the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling. With live two-way video communication, you can have face-to-face talks with friends and family on your mobile phone.
Many European countries have already launched the service. In May 2000 the US Government issued five license to run 3G wireless services, while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year.
International telecom companies can’t wait to sell 3G in China, the world’s largest mobile telecommunications market. But they will have to be patient. At the moment, China is busy testing its 3G-based technologies, networks and services. This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops.
“We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large-scale commercial launch of the service,” said Fan Yunjun, marketing manager for Beijing Mobile. “We expect that the 3G licenses will be issued late next year.”
Third-generation mobile phones (3G mobile phones) | |
(1) ______________ | A.Data speed: (2) ______________ than present technology B.Video and (3) _____ music C.Video news programs: (4) ________ four times a day D.Internet access: quicker and (5) __________ |
