Notre-Dame de Paris
After a disastrous fire,this ancient site is now fully restored
On April 15,2019,the people of Paris,France,were shocked to see the Notre-Dame de Paris
Cathedral in flames.The cathedral (1)(stand)for hundreds of years,but the fire nearly
destroyed it.Hundreds of firefighters fought to save the building,but the fire still did extensive
damage.Since then,the building has been closed for repairs,but this Sunday,it (2)
(schedule)to be open to the public once more.
Notre-Dame took nearly two centuries to build,from 1163 to 1345,and even after its
completion,new features continued (3)(add).Repairs to the representative cathedral were
done with careful accuracy,using methods from (4)original construction in the Middle
Ages.
Notre-Dame is an amazing example of Gothic architecture.The builders of Gothic cathedrals
thought of their buildings as places where people go to meet with God,so they tried to make the
buildings look like heaven.This means the cathedrals all have tall ceilings(5)(support)by
columns,with large windows that are made of colored glass.As a result,the buildings are filled
with colored light,which is intended to call to mind descriptions of heaven that say it has streets
full of gold.Images of cathedrals like Notre-Dame (6)convey part of their beauty and
splendor,but they don't compare with the experience of seeing them in person.
In the late 18th century,popular resentment (against the French upper class exploded
into a revolution.The revolutionaries associated the Christian establishment with the king they
despised(鄙视)，so they ransacked(选劫)Notre-.Dame along with many other churches..Shortly
after the revolution,some repairs were made,but the cathedral was still (7)bad shape.The
cathedral's disrepair partly inspired Victor Hugo's famous novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame.
This novel,much of which takes place inside the cathedral,was so popular (8)it
inspired a major repair of the cathedral.The architect who planned the repairs took some creative
license,adding features rather than(9)(restore)the cathedral to its original appearance.But
the result was a beautiful building,which for a time was the most popular tourist attraction in
France.
In 2018 more repair work began,intended to change some deterioration (that had
taken place over time.It was during the repairing project that the fire started.The April 2019 fire
destroyed the entire roof and much of the structure's original frame.But a few important pieces
were-amazingly-spared.The fire forced the government to perform more extensive repairs (10)
had been planned,but the work is now complete.Now people can once again visit this
architectural wonder and marvel at its beauty,its history and(for some)its spiritual significance.
