What if you say it first and your partner doesn’t love you back? Or if they do say it but you don’t feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerve racking(紧张)and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn’t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand fast?
A really good relationship should be about “being fair and being equal,” says psychologist Sidney Crown. “But love is seldom equal.” All relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. “That feeling of ‘I’ve 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 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 ‘I’ m 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 they’re drunk? Is it said before their partner files off on holiday, and what it really means is ‘Please don’ t be unfaithful to me’ ?” By saying ‘I love you’, they are really saying ‘Do you love me?’ If so, wouldn’t it just be more honest to say that. Collins agrees that intention is everything. “It’s not what is said, but how it’s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker.”

It sounds like very tough homework since most of the men were over 35 and were raised in the generation of men that were taught expressing emotions is not “macho (阳刚之气).” Showing feelings or crying was just not done. So this was very threatening homework for some.
At the beginning of our next class, I asked if someone wanted to share what happened when they told someone they loved them. I fully expected one of the women to volunteer, as was usually the case, but on this evening one of the men raised his hand, quite moved and a bit shaken.
As he unfolded out of his chair (all 1.85 meters of him), he began by saying, “Dennis, I was quite angry with you last week when you gave us this homework. Who were you to tell me to do something that personal?”
“But as I began driving home my conscience (良心)started telling me that I knew exactly who I needed to say ‘I love you’ to.”
“Five years ago, my father and I had a severe disagreement and really never settled it since then. We avoided seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at Christmas or other family gatherings. But even then, we hardly spoke to each other.”
“So last Tuesday by the time I got home I had convinced myself. I was going to tell my father I loved him. It’s strange, but just making that decision seemed to lift a heavy load off my chest.”
小题1: The homework is threatening for some students because_________.
A.they are middle-aged people | B.they are not macho enough |
C.they were taught to hide their emotions | D.they didn’t know how to show feelings |
A.the adult students have classes in the day time only |
B.not all the adult students in the writer’s class are male |
C.the man refused to meet his father after their quarrel |
D.the man quickly decided to say “I love you” to his father |
A.stood on his chair straight | B.sat quietly in the chair |
C.bent himself over his chair | D.raised himself slowly from the chair |
A.He felt it too strange to say “I love you” to his father. |
B.He felt relaxed just thinking of saying “I love you” to his father. |
C.He felt very relaxed after saying “I love you” to his father. |
D.He had to lift a heavy load off his chest before saying “I love you”. |

One night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the opposite direction at about the same speed. As we passed each other, I caught the other driver’s eye for only a second. I wondered whether he might be thinking, as I was, how dependent we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall asleep, not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden end. Though we had never spoken a word to each other, he relied on me in just the same way.
Multiplied a million times over, I believe that is the way the world works. At some level, we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us simply not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line. And sometimes it requires us to act cooperatively, with friends or even with strangers.
As technology shrinks our world, the need increases for cooperative action among nations. In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which saved thousands of lives. The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a similar problem, one requiring team action by police and intelligence forces across the world. We must recognize that our fates are not ours alone to control.
In my own life, I’ve put great stock in personal responsibility. But, as time has passed, I’ve also come to believe that there are moments when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of others. so, while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a dark road, what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of trust.
小题1:The author considers it very important ______.
A.to drive with a company | B.to have personal independence |
C.to gain certain responsibility | D.to share trust and cooperation |
A.the approaching car was very dangerous |
B.they both drove their car at a terrific speed |
C.he might be killed out of the other’s careless driving |
D.it was dark and the road was not wide enough |
A.only one experience | B.many similar experiences |
C.a driver on a dark road | D.many friends and strangers |
A.peoples’ fates can’t be controlled by themselves |
B.certain viruses can spread in a quick way |
C.terrorism can happen everywhere and every day |
D.the world has become much more dangerous |
A.believed in one’s own personal responsibility |
B.counted upon himself alone in everything |
C.had no trust in others’ good faith and judgment |
D.had accomplished a change on his viewpoint of life |

It was half an hour before midnight on December 24th last year. I was a ticket-counter supervisor(主管)for a major airline and was looking forward to the 36 of my shift (轮班)at Stapleton International Airport in Denver. My wife was waiting up for me at home so that we could 37 our gifts for Christmas.
