【答案解析】[听力原文]
   
Love

   Love makes you feel wanted. If you realize that you can lose the one you love, / then you have a greater appreciation of what you have. / Without love a person could go anywhere / and also become cruel and ferocious. / In the early stage of our life, / our parents are the ones who shower us with unconditional love and care. / But we always tend to take this for granted / It is only after marriage and having kids / that a person understands / and becomes sensitive to others' feelings. /

   爱让你有一种被需要的感觉。如果你意识到你可以失去你爱的人,那么你肯定是对现在所拥有的东西更为欣赏。没有爱,一个人将走向不归路,变得凶残。在我们人生的最初阶段,我们的父母给予了我们无条件的关爱。然而我们却往往认为这是理所当然的,只有等我们结了婚并且有了孩子之后,才会懂得并注意别人的感受。
