According to the Associated Press, more Americans are consuming breakfast in stages thanks to on-the-go lifestyles and the belief that multiple, smaller meals are (36) than three large ones.Serial eating is only expected to increase in the coming years. The NPD Group, a market research company, (

From the time

27、they met in kindergarten until they were 15, Robin Shreeves and her friend Penny were inseparable. They rode bikes, played kickball in the street, swam all summer long and listened to music on the stereo. They told each other secrets like which boys they thought were cute, as best friends always do.

28、B. Today, Ms. Shreeves, of suburban Philadelphia, is the mother of two boys. Her 10-year-old has a best friend. In fact, he is the son of Ms. Shreevess own friend, Penny. But Ms. Shreevess younger son, 8, does not. His favorite playmate is a boy who was in his preschool class, but Ms. Shreeves says

29、that the two dont get together very often because scheduling play dates can be complicated; they usually have to be planned a week or more in advance. “Hell say, I wish I had someone I can always call, “ Ms. Shreeves said.C. One might be tempted to feel some sympathy for the younger son. After all,

30、from Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn to Harry Potter and Ron Weasley, the childhood “best friend“ has long been romanticized in literature and pop culture - not to mention in the sentimental memories of countless adults.D. But increasingly, some educators and other professionals who work with children are

31、asking a question that might surprise their parents: Should a child really have a best friend?E. Most children naturally seek close friends. In a survey of nearly 3,000 Americans ages 8 to 24 conducted last year by Harris Interactive, 94 percent said they had at least one close friend. But the class

32、ic best- friend bond-the two special pals who share secrets and exploits, who attract each other on the playground and who head out the door together every day after school-signals potential trouble for school officials intent on discouraging anything that hints of exclusivity, in part because of co

33、ncerns about cliques (帮派) and bullying.F. “I think it is kids preference to pair up and have that one best friend. As adults-teachers and counselors-we try to encourage them not to do that,“ said Christine Laycob, director of counseling at Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School in St. Louis

34、 “We try to talk to kids and work with them to get them to have big groups of friends and not be so possessive about friends. “ “Parents sometimes say Johnny needs that one special friend,“ she continued. “We say he doesnt need a best friend.“G. For many child-rearing experts, the ideal situation m

35、ight well be that of Matthew and Margaret Guest, 12-year-old twins in suburban Atlanta, who almost always socialize in a pack. One typical Friday afternoon, about 10 boys and girls filled the Guest family backyard. Kids were jumping on the trampoline (蹦床), shooting baskets and playing hide-and-seek.

36、 Neither Margaret nor Matthew has ever had a best friend. “I just really dont have one person I like more than others,“ Margaret said. “Most people have lots of friends.“ Matthew said he considers 12 boys to be his good friends and says he sees most of them “pretty much every weekend.“ Their mother,

37、 Laura Guest, said their school tries to prevent bullying through workshops and posters. And extracurricular activities keep her children group- oriented-Margaret is on the swim team and does gymnastics; Matthew plays football and baseball.H. As the calendar moves into summer, efforts to manage frie

38、ndships dont stop with the closing of school. In recent years Timber Lake Camp, a co-ed sleep-away camp in Phoenicia, N.Y., has started employing “friendship coaches“ to work with campers to help every child become friends with everyone else. If two children seem to be too focused on each other, the

39、 camp will make sure to put them on different sports teams, seat them at different ends of the dining table or, perhaps, have a counselor invite one of them to participate in an activity with another child whom they havent yet gotten to know. I dont think its particularly healthy for a child to rely

40、 on one friend,“ said Jay Jacobs, the camps director. “If something goes wrong, it can be devastating. It also limits a childs ability to explore other options in the world. “I. But such an attitude worries some psychologists who fear that children will be denied the strong emotional support and sec

41、urity that comes with intimate friendships. “Do we want to encourage kids to have all sorts of superficial relationships? Is that how we really want to rear our children?“ asked Brett Laursen, a psychology professor at Florida Atlantic University whose specialty is peer relationships. “Imagine the i

42、mplication for romantic relationships. We want children to get good at leading close relationships, not superficial ones. “ Many psychologists believe that close childhood friendships not only increase a childs self-esteem and confidence, but also help children develop the skills for healthy adult r

43、elationships- everything from empathy, the ability to listen and console, to the process of arguing and making up. If childrens friendships are designed and cleaned by adults, the argument goes, how is a child to prepare emotionally for both the affection and rejection likely to come later in life?J

44、 “No one can teach you what a great friend is, what a fair-weather friend is, what a betraying friend is except to have a great friend, a fair-weather friend or a betraying friend,“ said Michael Thompson, a psychologist who is an author of the book Best Friends. Worst Enemies: Understanding the Soc

45、ial Lives of Children. “When a teacher is trying to tone down a best-friend culture, I would like to know why,“ Dr. Thompson said. “Is it causing misery for the class? Or is there one girl who does have friends but just cant bear the thought that she doesnt have as good a best friend as another? Tha

46、t to me is normal social pain. If youre intervening in the lives of kids who are just experiencing normal social pain, you shouldnt be. “K. Schools insist they dont intend to break up close friendships but rather to encourage courtesy, respect and kindness to all. “I dont see schools really in the b

47、usiness of trying to prevent friendships as far as they are trying to give students an opportunity to interact socially with other students in a variety of different ways,“ said Patti Kinney, who was a teacher and a principal in an Oregon middle school for 33 years and is now an official at the Nati

48、onal Association of Secondary School Principals.L. Still, school officials admit they watch close friendships carefully for adverse effects. “When two children discover a special bond between them, we honor that bond, provided that neither child overtly or covertly excludes or rejects others,“ said Jan M
