Sparks was
part of a research team that followed the
friendships of 32 pairs of
same-sex and
13 pairs of male-female best friends from 1983 to
2002. The initial
quality
and
closeness
of
their
friendships
were
measured
in
different
ways,
including how well they played a game
that assessed levels of communication and
understanding. Follow-up studies took
place in 1987 and 2002. Sixty-four of the
individuals, including at least one
friend from 38 of the pairs, participated in
the 2002 study.
On
average,
the
participants
in
this
study
moved
six
times
during
19
years,
and
the
typical
distance
between

was

In

to

friendships also were affected by

When something good or

Passage Two
I
remember the day I found out Ross and Rachel were
going to kiss. It was two days
before
the episode(
电视剧集
), and I was
at lunch with some friends. The word was:
Don't
miss
this
week's
show.
I
know
how
strange
that
may
sound.
It
certainly
wasn't
one of the more
significant events of the past 10 years, and it
was, you know,

fictional.
But
every
decade
has
its
defining
pop
culture
moments,
and
for
millions
of us who were
20-somethings in the 1990s, that was
one.
From the moment Friends
first appeared on our screens in 1994, it stood
out. The
six characters were friends of
mine from college, friends from high school, peers
from
just
being
a
middle-class,
white
American
entering
the
post-college
world.
And
I always felt Friends
respected me -- and
my
intelligence.
Mostly because the show
never
seemed
to
be
trying
to
make
the
audience
laugh.
It
was
more
like
the
characters
were laughing
with us.
Friends helped
restore the
rarely
came
from
jokes
--
and
almost
always
came
from
situations
that
the
characters
themselves
didn't
realize
were
funny.
To
me,
that's
always
been
one
of
the
greatest
strengths
of
the
show's
writing,
and
has
put
so
many
other
comedies
to
shame.
After
10
years, according to my math, I've spent more than
85 hours of my life watching
Friends.
And I don't regret a second.
Whenever
newspapers
and
magazines
have
written
about
the
Friends
phenomenon,
they've
inevitably
followed
up
with
some
perplexing
letters
to
the
editor.
People
write
in
decrying the
gotten the
backlash. If you don't like the show, don't watch
it.
Of course, some of the
complaints do touch on truths. Yes, Friends isn't
actually
real, and has taken pains to
avoid anything remotely controversial -- no real
talk
about
politics
or
religion
--
and
has
had
a
notable
paucity(
少量
)
of
racial
diversity.
It's not a
complete picture of anything in the real world,
and it's not supposed
to be. However,
it has successfully captured a slice of life. And
if, decades from
now, people look back
on this show -- among other things, of course --
to get some
insight into the pop
culture zeitgeist(
时代精神
) of
1994004, that's fine by me.
So
now
I
say
goodbye
to
the
program
that's
achieved
so
much.
It's
sad,
but
not
because
I'll miss the show.
It really is time for it to end. It's sad because
