A lecturer when explaining stress (壓力) management to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked, "How heavy is this glass of water?" The answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g, to which the lecturer replied, "The absolute (絕對的) weight   1  matter. It all  2  how long you try to hold it."      "If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If I hold it for  3 , I'll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you'll have to  4  an ambulance for me. In each case, it's the  5  weight, but the longer I hold it, the  6  it becomes."      He continued, "And that's the way it is with stress management. If we carry our burdens (負(fù)擔(dān))  7 , sooner or later, as the burdens become increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on. As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again. When we're refreshed (精神 振作), we can carry on with the burden."      "So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow.  8  burdens you're carrying now, lay them  9  for a moment if you can. Relax… then pick them up later after you've  10  . Life is short. Enjoy it!"
