You may hear it from a parent, a friend, in your place of worship, on tv or in a book._36_ You may use the word love about a song, a food or your family pet. You may tell family members you love them. As you can see, there are many kinds of love! But not all kinds of love are created equal.So what does love mean to you?_37_ Love gives life meaning and purpose. As Mahatma Gandhi once said, “Where there is love there is life.” In the dictionary, love is defined as a strong, positive feeling you have for someone or something. _38_People show their love not just with what they say or feel, but by what they do.At its core, love is about being kind and doing good things for others. A famous verse from the bible describes how love is more than just a feeling, but the way you act and treat others. “_39_It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”_40_This allows us to love others no matter what. Showing love allows us to put the needs of others before our own.So what are some ways that you could show love? It could be as simple as volunteering at a local soup kitchen. Maybe telling those we love how important they are! Consistently showing love will build a habit and fulfill you as well.A.Love is patient, love is kind. B.But it is also a lot more than that. C.And what kind of love is most important?D.You may even say the word love a lot yourself!E.So what are some ways that you could show love?F.Before we can show love though, we must first love ourselves. G.Consistently showing love will build a habit and fulfill you as well.第三部分英语知识运用（共三节,满分55分）完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分,满分30分）Susan Boyle spent her early life faithfully attending her _41_ Catholic church, taking singing lessons and performing in small karaoke venues, and _42_ her aging mother, whom she promised that she would someday enter a _43_ contest.
