Almost everyone stood up when the bride appeared in her white dress except the wedding conductor, because she was fixed to her chair. The marriage was held at a restaurant in Hibiya Park in central Tokyo. A four-foot-tall robot called I-Fairy directed the wedding.

“Please lift the bride’s veil(面纱）,” I-Fairy said in a tiny voice with flashing eyes and long hair. As the happy persons kissed in front of about 50 guests, she shook her arms in the air. It was the first time that a marriage had been led by a robot.

Japan has one of the most modern robot industries in the world. The government actively supports to make more kinds of robots in the future. Many robot models in factories are very new. Recently Japanese companies are making robots work for people in daily life.

Honda makes a walking robot like children, and other companies have developed robots that can help old people and play baseball. In order to “touch the hearts of the people”, Kokoro makes huge dinosaur robots and other models that can smile.

“This is a lot of fun. I think that Japanese have a strong thought that robots are our friends. People in the robot industry mostly understand this, but people mainly want robots to serve them,” said Satoko Inoue, who works in Kokoro. Now the I-Fairies are in use in Singapore, the US and Japan.

It’s no secret that reading is helpful. But can it help kids lose weight In the first study to look at the influence of literature on overweight teenagers, researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital discovered that reading the right type of novel may make a difference.

The Duke researchers asked overweight girls aged 9 to 13 who were already in a weight loss program to read a novel called Lake Rescue. It was carefully created with the help of pediatric experts (儿科专家) to include specific healthy lifestyle and weight management guidance, as well as positive messages and strong role models.

Six months later, the Duke researchers found the 31 girls who read Lake Rescue experienced a significant decrease (fall) in their BMI scores (-.71%) when compared to a control group of 14 girls who hadn’t (+.05%), explained Alexandra C. Russell, a fourth-year medical student at Duke who led the study.

“As a pediatrician, I can’t count the number of times I tell parents to buy a book that might provide useful advice, yet I’ve never been able to point to research to back up my recommendations,” says Sarah Armstrong, director of Duke’s Healthy Lifestyles Program where the research took place. “This is the first probable interventional (介入的) study that found literature can have a positive influence on healthy lifestyle changes in young girls.”

Obesity(肥胖） is becoming more widespread in children, according to the CDC (Centres for Disease Control), which reports that 16 percent of children aged 6 to 19 are overweight or obese, a number that has increased since 1980. Researchers are looking at a lot of ways to help kids stay healthy, lose weight and be more active, but Armstrong says, “most don’t work very well. The weight loss choices that are effective typically involve taking powerful medications with side effects, or require long-lasting surgical procedures.”

While the BMI decrease because of the book is small, Armstrong says any decrease in BMI is encouraging because BMI typically increases in children as they grow and develop. That’s okay as long as it follows a normal, progressing curve(曲线）. In overweight kids, however, BMI usually increases more quickly. “If their BMI percentile (百分位) goes down, it means they are either losing weight or getting tall and not gaining weight. Both are seen as positive signs in kids who are trying to lose weight,” she explains.
