31、et in. ” That feeling of “Ive always loved you more” may be subverted (颠覆,破坏) for a time,but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling (大声争吵). In love,at least,the silent,withholding type is not always the most powerful. “The strongest one in a relationship is often the person
32、 who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings,” says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. “The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. ” In fact,the person who says “I love you” first may also be the one who says
33、“Im bored with you” first. Hall believes that much depends on how “I love you” is said and the motivation of the person saying it. Is it said when theyre drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday,and what it really means is “Please don t be unfaithful to me”? By saying “I love you”
34、,they are really saying “Do you love me? ” If so,wouldnt it just be more honest to say that?Collins agrees that intention is everything. “Its not what is said,but how its said.

36、y troubles in our lifeD. people usually do not know when to say “I love you”【解析】选D。句意理解题。“You must have been troubled by when to say I love you because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life. ”也就是说人们为何时说“我爱你”而烦恼。3. According to the expert,a good relationship should be _ . A. fair and equal B.
37、 fair and kindC. powerful and equal D. confident and fair【解析】选A。细节理解题。由第三段第一句“A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal. ”可知。4. In the third paragraph,the underlined phrase “with the upper hand” means _ . A. being low in spirit B. having only one handC. being active D. being passive【解析】选C。词义猜测题。意思是“占了上风”。5. What is the most important for you to consider when somebody says “I love you” to you? A. The intention. B. The place. C. The time. D.
