What is love? It’s a simple word with so much meaning.
People around the world are talking about love today. And not without reason-love is a wonderful feeling! But close your eyes and _______ love for a minute. What does love mean to you? Love is a feeling, but what else is it?
Love is _______
We can find that love is not always expressed through words. If you are in love, you keep thinking of ways to show your love to the other person. When you are completely in love, there’s _______ you wouldn’t do to show your feelings to the person you love.
Love is sacrifice (牺牲)
Sometimes showing your love includes sacrifice. An old saying says, "There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. And there are hundreds of books filled with stories of people giving their lives for their country, family or friends. When you love someone dearly, no sacrifice is too great. _______ , laying down your life doesn’t actually mean losing your life. It can mean giving up something you want for someone else. We can all choose to sacrifice our needs and wants for the sake of (为了 ...) others. Learning how to love means learning how to be selfless.
Love is sharing
Some might say that love is giving. But I believe it goes beyond giving because love is about _______ . So I like to say, Love is sharing! When you have a lot of love in your heart, you want to share it with the ones you love. Love is the reason why our parents share their life experiences. Love is the reason why our friends share their joys and sorrows. Love is the reason why our teachers share their knowledge and friendship. Love comes from everyone around you.
What’s love like? It is just like the _______ . We can’t see it, but we can always feel it.
