"I'll be there in a few minutes.I'm playing a game with a friend,a guy named Scuzbll," my 15-year-old son shouted from his room."Oh,what is Scuzzball's real name？" I asked. "I have no idea," he said. "Where is he from？" I continued.He responded, "I think somewhere in Canada.Oh,wait,it doesn't even matter becau Scuzball just left the game and he has been replaced with a robot."
"Your friend is replaced by artificial intelligence？" "It doesn't matter,Dad.It happens all the time!The game continues." My son doesn't mind playing with a person or a robot,which is typical of gamers the days.I wonder whether the face-to-face experience of friendship that I grew up with will be lost by our children.
Aristotle,a great thinker and educator,has pointed out that shallow friendship is easily formed but also easily abandoned becau such bonds are fragile.Deep friendship,by contrast,is when you care for your friend for his sake,not for any benefit you can get.This is lfless friendship.You can have only a couple of the friends becau they require lots of time and effort.You must make sacrifices for each other.
Prence in friendship requires "being with" and "doing for".Perhaps the most defining feature of deep friendship is "doing for"，as my friend has my back in trouble or brings me soup when I'm sick.Only strong bonds have the power to motivate real sacrifices.But it is unclear why online "friends" would bother to do the hard work of friendship.When I asked my students whether they had people in their lives who would bring them soup when they were sick,they laughed at my Stone Age question and said they'd just order so
up online.

Dancing with your grandma for 15 minutes a week promotes positive feelings and improves her state of mind,a study claims.Doctors from Israel are urging younger family members to have a regular visit to their grandmas and have a dance with their grandmas.
And they found a 15-minute boogie（布吉舞）once a week lifted the spirits of the elder family members and helped strengthen the familial bond.In fact,it is called Dance Movement Therapy（DMT）.DMT across the generations,complete with eye contact,was found to promote positive feelings and improve mood for the elderly.
The grandparents reported a bright state of mind,happy memories and uplifted spirits.Dancing has also previously been linked to improved muscle strength,balance and endurance（忍耐力）.For the grandchildren in the study,the weekly boogie changed how they view ageing and allowed them to come to accept the eventual death of their elderly relative.
The study,published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology,assd how dance affected the well-being of 16 dance movement therapists（治疗师）and their grandmothers.DMT was paid attention due to the fact that it is easily accessible and does not cost more to practice.The rearchers were eager to examine a low-cost method to treat issues commonly faced by an ageing population,such as limited mobility and depression.Grandchildren were instructed to make eye contact and encourage playfulnes
s and touch.They were also told to mirror their grandmothers' movements and give them time and space to rest when needed.
The ssions were recorded and then analyd while diaries and interviews captured the opinions and feelings of the participants.As well as the benefits to the health of the nior,the experiment also changed the idea of the younger family members.
