More than forty thousand readers told us what they looked for in close friendships, what they expected 61 friends, what they were willing to give in 62 , and how satisfied they were 63 the quality of their friendships. The 64 give little comfort to social critics.
Friendship 65 to be a unique form of 66 bonding. Unlike marriage or the ties that 67 parents and children, it is not defined or regulated by 68 . Unlike other social roles that we are expected to 69 —as citizens, employees, members of professional societies and 70 organizations—it has its own principle, which is to promote 71 of warmth, trust, love, and affection 72 two people.
The survey on friendship appeared in the March 73 of Psychology Today. The findings 74 that issues of trust and betrayal(背叛) are 75 to friendship. They also suggest that our readers do not 76 for friends only among those who are 77 like them, but find many 78 differ in race, religion, and ethnic(種族的) background. Arguably the most important 79 that emerges from the data, 80 , is not something that we found—but what we did not.

For the past two years, I have been working on students’ evaluation of classroom teaching. I have kept a record of informal conversations 71 some 300 students from at 72 twenty-one colleges and universities. The students were generally 73 and direct in their comments 74 how course work could be better 75 .

Professors should 85 repeating in lectures material that is in the textbook. “ 86 we’ve read the material, we want to 87 it or hear it elaborated on, 88 repeated.” “A lot of students hate to buy a 89 text that the professor has written 90 to have his lectures repeat it.”
