1 . It is likely that on American TV shows you at times will be attracted by rubber balls on people’s desks. 1 People can squeeze them when feeling stressed out. It’s believed that by concentrating on the act of squeezing, they can let go of the negative energy in their bodies.

Indeed, stress is a big problem for many people. 2 In fact, the rubber stress relief balls that are so popular today in the US are believed to date back to ancient China. Back in the Han Dynasty (206 BC–AD 220), soldiers used walnuts to get rid of stress. By squeezing them during moments of anxiety, soldiers were able to calm themselves down before going into battle. And in the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644), ordinary citizens—not just soldiers—developed the habit of rolling two walnuts, or balls made from iron or stone, around in their hands. 3 And today, we have many gadgets (器具) and toys that are designed to reduce stress in addition to stress relief balls. One example is the popular fidget spinner (指尖陀螺). 4 You have to spin the gadget around. There’s also the fidget cube, which features different “gimmicks (机关)” on each side of the cube. You can click, spin, pull, push and rotate different parts of the cube.

5 But perhaps we should take them more seriously. “After all, the history of stress balls is a history of modern-day coping (应对),” reporter Nadia Berenstein wrote for Woolly magazine.

It seems inhuman to care more about a building than about people. That the sight of the Notre Dame's 1 (go)up in flames has attracted more attention than floods in southern Africa which killed over 1,000 has aroused understandable feelings of guilt. Yet the widespread sorrow is 2 (definite)human—and in a particularly 21st-century way.

It is not just the economy that is 3 (globe)today, it is culture too. People wander the world in search not just of jobs and 4 (secure)but also of beauty and history. Familiarity breeds affection. A building 5 whose sunny steps you have rested or in front of which you 6 (take)a selfie with your loved one, becomes a warm part of your memory. That helps explain why the whole world is in deep sorrow.

However, the emotions are less about the building itself than about 7 losing it might mean. Notre Dame is an expression of humanity, having experienced 850 years of political turbulence(动荡)—through war, revolution and Nazi occupation.

And it will be rebuilt. It will never be the same, but that is as it should be. 8 Victor Hugo wrote in The Hunchback of Notre Dame, 9 three-volume love-letter to the cathedral: “Great buildings are the work of centuries. Art 10 (transform)as it is being made. Time is the architect; the nation is the builder.”
