2．Climate change has caused a rise in sea levels．This has increased the amount of salt in fresh water used on coastal farms．As a result farmers are increasingly unable to use fields close to the sea．
Scientists call this process"salinization．"（盐碱化）But a farmer in the Netherlands is now using a mixture of sea and fresh water to grow healthy and tasty vegetables．Marc Van Rijsselberghe started with an experiment．He put several kinds of plants in saline．
"We put a lot of plants in the fields and then we put them in fresh water and in sea water，and then we see which variety is surviving and which variety is dying．"
Mr．Van Rijsselberghe worked on the project with scientists from the Free University of Amsterdam．He divided a farm into eight irrigated areas．Separate pipes pumped fresh and sea water，and a computer program created water with eight levels of salinity．Computerized measuring devices called"sensors"controlled the water levels and the levels of salinity．Mr．Van Rijsselberghe says he was able to harvest vegetables from most of the eight test areas．He says the vegetables were smaller than those grown in fresh water．But he says they also have more sugar and salt，so they taste better．
The farmer grew carrots，cabbage，onions and beetroot．But he found that potatoes grew better than the other vegetables in the combination of sea and fresh water．Mr．Van Rijsselberghe says four kinds of these potatoes were recently sent to Pakistan，where thousands of hectares of land have been damaged by salinization．Farmers in Pakistan will test the Dutch potatoes to see if they can be grown in those fields．

14．Today many people live longer lives with more physical and mental strength．The"life cycle"from childhood to adulthood and into older age is different from previous generations．How are ideas about the life cycle changing？
One American writer，Gail Sheehy，has identified some new trends in the life cycle．She separates life into decades，10-year sections．Her definitions are optimistic and positive，and they may help people understand themselves as they grow older．
The ages between twenty and thirty are times of experimentation．People in their twenties try many new things with a lot of energy．They search for a path for their lives．Their responsibilities are not usually serious，and they can experiment with lifestyles choices．But when they become thirty，they pass to a stage called"First Adulthood．"In this stage of life，people begin to think for themselves．They become independent and more ambitious．They begin to define themselves within society．
In the next stage of life，the forties，people begin to prepare themselves for leadership positions．Gail Sheehy sees people in their forties as working hard．They want to be successful．They have to take care of their families and begin to be masters of their work and themselves．She calls moving from this stage into the fifties the passage to the"Age of Mastery．"People in fifties have new positive feeling．They begin to see different things they can do with their lives．They become adventurers．They also begin to question their values．They want to live their lives better，with more truth．They struggle to understand the world and themselves．
She calls the next stage the"Age of Integrity．"When people become sixty，they want to live their lives with real values．They work to keep their minds active．They recommit themselves to their families with love．They begin to take some active risk-taking for the future．It is a time of real maturity．Ms．Sheehy calls people in their seventies wise，people in their eighties free，and those in their nineties noble．The life cycle Ms．Sheehy writes about is long and hopeful．
