Love can be seen everywhere .Yet surprisingly, love has been the subject of less scientific research than other emotions. such as anger and fear. The reason for this may be twofold. First, love is a very complex(复杂)emotion, difficult to describe and measure. Secondly, unlike many radical emotions, radical love is generally not a problem; thus less medical attention has been paid to it.What is love? This is a complex question and requires a complex answer. Love is a strong, positive attraction and feeling for another person or thing. But is more than this .It also involves feeling of caring, protection, excitement, and tenderness(温和).When two people are in love, they feel drawn to one another, they greatly enjoy each other’s company; and they may be sexually attracted to one another.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 strong positive feeling toward another.Our feelings toward other people are often complex. We may love someone and, at the same time, be angry with him. Or we may love someone, even though we are jealous of him. We might even love someone and, at the same time, hate for some precise reason.Hate is a strong negative emotion toward someone, and is due to anger, jealousy, or some other factor. Like love, hate can be a very strong emotion. It can also be very dangerous, The question is often asked, “Is it bad to hate?” The best answer is probably “sometimes yes and sometimes no.” Usually hate does not help us; it makes us feel unhappy and makes us do things that may hurtothers. However, sometimes it may be necessary to hate and hurt someone in order to protect loved ones.(332 words)1.
