Passage 1
We have saved as a final set of emoti ons (情感)the two importa nt emotio ns conn ected with other people: love and its
opposite, hate. Love can be see n everywhere .Yet surpris in gly, love has bee n the subject of less scie ntific research tha n other emotio ns. such as an ger and fear. The reas on for this may be twofold. First, love is a very complex( 复杂)emoti on, difficult to describe and measure. Secon dly, un like many radical emoti ons, radical love is gen erally n ot a problem; thus less medical atte nti on has bee n paid to it.
What is love? This is a complex question and requires a complex answer. Love is a strong, positive attracti on and feeli ng for ano ther pers on or thing. But is more tha n this .It also in volves feeling of caring, protection, excitement, and tenderness(温禾口 ).When two people are in love, they feel drawn to one another, they greatly enjoy each other attracted to one ano ther.
Sometimes it is easier to think in terms of different kinds of love: romantic love, brotherly love, and so forth. Though they are different in some respects, they share one important characteristic: a stro ng positive feeli ng toward ano ther.
Our feeli ngs toward other people are ofte n complex. We may love some one and, at the same time, be angry with him. Or we may love some one, even though we are jealous of him. We might eve n love some one and, at the same time, hate for some precise reas on.
Hate is a stro ng n egative emoti on toward some one, and is due to an ger, jealousy, or some other factor. Like love, hate can be a very stro ng emoti on .It can also be very dan gerous, The questi on is often asked, \Is it bad to hate? i
' s company; and they may be sexually
” The best answer is probably “sometimes yes and sometimes
Usually hate does not help us; it makes us feel un happy and makes us do things that may hurt
others. However, sometimes it may be n ecessary to hate and hurt some one in order to protect loved on es. (332 words)
