Instead of addicting to guilt，I see for someone who will never see．And I live well for someone who is no longer alive．I do it for them．But mostly I do it for me．It’s not easy to see the world with all its glories and faults，or to be alive in all the ways life demands．But it's a lot more fun than feeling bad． 5．What does the underlined word“It’’in paragraph 5 refer to?

This love language uses words to show love.\．\， ‘‘ 17 ’’，‘‘I really like how you’re always on time．’’ ●Quality time

It means giving someone our full attention．Not watching television together,but talking and listening to each other． 18 ●Receiving gifts

A present tells US：“He(or she)was thinking about me.” 19 Perhaps you give them a chocolate or a fresh chestnut they like will move them more． ●Acts of service “ 20 ”People who speak this love language do things for you，for example：cleaning the house，emptying the dishwasher,organizing a trip，etc． ●Physical touch
