1、Unit 5,Text A Womens Friends,Text B Children Need Outward Expressions of Parents Love,Text A: Womens Friends,Women are friends, I once would have said, when they totally love and support and trust each other and bare to each other the secrets of their soul. When they run, no questions asked to help
2、each other and tell truths to each other, when truths must be told. In other words, I once would have said, that a friend is a friend all the way. But now, I believe thats a narrow point of view. From the friendships I have and the friendships I see, friendships are conducted at many levels of inten
3、sity. Friendships can serve many different functions, meet different needs, and range from the soul sisters to the casual playmates. Consider these varieties of friendship: Some friends are convenience friends, such as a next-door neighbor, the mother of one of our childrens closest friends. Conveni
4、ence friends are convenient indeed. Theyll drive our kids to soccer when were sick; theyll even take our cats when we go on vacation, just as we will do the same for them. Some people share special interests. They are special-interest friends. These friendships arent intimate, and they neednt involv
5、e kids, or silverware, or cats. Their value lies in some interest jointly shared. Special-interest friends may be an office friend, or a yoga friend, or a tennis friend or, perhaps, a shopping friend.,课文,There are friends who bring us back to our history. I tend to call them historical friends. We a
6、ll have a friend who knew us when our family lived in that three-room flat in Brooklyn; when our dad was out of work for seven months; when our brother Allie got in that fight where they had to call the police; when the day after we secretly got engaged against our parents wishes. She was the first
7、and the only friend we told. Another type of friend can be called crossroads friends. Like historical friends, our crossroads friends are important for what was for the friendship we shared at a crucial time in our past life. A time, perhaps, when we roomed in college together or went together as ea
8、ger young singles in the Big City. A shared friendship as my friend Elizabeth and I did, through pregnancy, birth, and that scary first year of new motherhood. Friendship can be maintained between people of different generations. It is the close relationship between, what I term, cross-generational
9、friends. Another kind of intimacy exists in the friendships that form across generations, which one of my friends calls her daughter-mother and her mother-daughter relationship.,Evelyns friend is her mothers age, “But I share so much more with her than I ever could with my mother” a woman she talks
10、to about music, about books and about life. “What I get from her is the benefit of her experience. What she gets and enjoys from me is a youthful perspective. Its a pleasure for both of us.” There are medium friends, and pretty good friends, and very good friends indeed, and these friendships are de
11、fined by their level of intimacy. For example, we might tell a medium friend that, “Yesterday we had a fight with our husband.” We might tell a pretty good friend that this fight with our husband made us so mad that we slept on the couch. And we might tell a very good friend that the reason why we g
12、ot so mad in that fight and we slept on the couch had something to do with that girl who worked in his office. But, its only to our very best friends that were willing to tell all, to tell whats going on with that girl in his office. The best of friends, I still believe, totally love and support and
13、 trust each other, but they neednt agree about everything to respect each others point of view. Best of friends accept each other without judgment; they give and take without ever keeping score. A best friend means just being there; as I am for them and as they are for me; to comfort our sorrows and
14、 celebrate our joys.
