      [1]One of many important things for the whole family to do is to have dinner together. Researchers
began reporting the benefits of family dinner about a decade ago, focusing mainly on how it affects children.
Studies show that those families who eat dinner at least 3 or 4 times a week together, benefit in many ways.
      [2]Eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships. Children have better grades at school and are better adjusted as teens and adults, and the entire family enjoys
healthier nutrition. For many families, eating dinner together proves to be a good and effective way to reduce
the risk of youth rates of addiction, and helps to raise healthier children. It is also a great time to share the
events of the day, discuss news and ideas or just be together and enjoy each other"s company.
      [3]During dinner time parents have better opportunity to show that they are the prior to their children.
Sitting at the same table and sharing meals is where and when parents can find out more about their children"s
school performance, daily activities and attitudes toward life. When parents have all this information they can
better direct their kids toward positive things in life. They also have better chance to reduce the possibility that
children will get involved with alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs.

      [4]However, family researchers say that the benefits of family dinner by no means can be considered as
automatic. Parents can sit down to dinner with their kids every day and achieve nothing. __________________

      Do you love holidays but hate the increase weight that follows? You are not alone.
      Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods. Many people, however, are worried about the

not to eat too much. You don"t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy. The following suggestions
may be of some help to you.
      Do not miss meals. Before yon leave home for a feast (宴会), have a small, low-fat snack (小吃). This

vegetables. A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full. Use a small plate; a large plate will
encourage you to have more than enough. 
      Better not have high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them.

      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.
       "Children with weight problems often eat too quickly. We want them to eat steadily (稳定地) and slowly
and the system teaches them to slow down. It"s a bit like retraining," says Hamilton-Shield.
       Obesity now represents (代表) one of the major threats to the future health of children. About one in five
boys and one in four girls aged two to fifteen in England are overweight. But so far no treatments have proven
effective in treating children. 
      The Mandometer was developed in Sweden, but at present is experiencing further development at the
University of Bristol, with $ 224,400 in funds from BUPA-a global health and care organization. The system
could be on the market in two years" time. At first, it would be managed by medical clinics (诊所).
1. The text is mainly written to explain ______.
[     ]
A. how a new computer treatment dealing with obesity works
B. why child obesity becomes a topic of people
C. how to lose weight with the help of computers
D. why a computer is effective (有效的) in dealing with child obesity
2. The word "functioning" in paragraph 3 probably means ______.
[     ]
A. eating
B. working
C. lasting
D. losing
3. Obesity threatens the health of children, which ______.
[     ]
A. people have not cared about
B. is nothing compared with other diseases
C. has led to many deaths
D. is very serious
4. What can we learn from the text?
[     ]
A. The Mandometer will be put into market once it proves effective.
B. The Mandometer is cheap enough for every family to afford.
C. The Mandometer is still not perfect.
D. Slow eating is sure to make people lose weight.
