Cloze

Complete the following passage with words and phrases chosen from Text A. The initial letter of each is given.

Today young people tend to jump on the bandwagon of love with so much haste (1) that they fail to realize the essence of true love. Given the current state of affairs (2), we need to consider more closely the nature of love. True love has to be distinguished (3) from the pleasures of the flesh. True love means a meeting of minds (4) and it takes time to blossom (5). People who are in true love focus more on inner charm (6) than on physical beauty, more on intimacy (7) than on closeness, more on emotion (8) than on passion, more on sharing than on acquiring (9). As true love happens once in a lifetime, they have in their minds the ideals (10) of the relationship. They share mutual respect, admiration (11) and plenty of romance, so their relationship is lasting (12) and meaningful. Preserving true love requires effort, however. You should gift your object of affection (13) your time, company, support and friendship; you should give yourself and your beloved time and space to forge (14) a life-long bond; and you should honor (15) your commitments. In short, you should devote yourself to your love. Your devotion to love will, in return, bring you an overwhelming (16) joy.
