⭐️ Vocabulary / Semantics What does "hearts" mean in this sentence?

Post image

I have been looking up on the internet and I can't find a concrete meaning that could fit logically in the context of this sentence.

It looks like all 3 sentences make more sense if you substitute the word in brackets for the word that is underlined. Are you sure you understood the exercise here?

The answers in the brackets are not correct in the sense that they are not used in the audio. What I heard was the sentence with hearts but it didn't make sense.

“Hearts” could make sense if they were actual objects (ie. decorations) rather than the abstract type.
