As we all know, questioning can lead to searching for an answer. If we are in the habit raising doubts as to whether that we are told is true, we can find the correct answer and learn more.
Two years ago, our teacher offered us an answer to a difficult math problem in class. Although the answer seemed a little strange, but nobody except me doubted it. Think that his answer might be wrong, I carefully analyzed the problem and tried to work them out in a different way. Half a hour later, I managed to find the correct answer. When I showed my answer to him, the teacher praised me as my independently thinking.
From this experiences, I have learned that questioning can serve as a bridge that help us to seek the truth.

What attitude would you have to disappointments in life? 1. Find out how a chair, a pair of sunglasses and other items can hold unexpected promise for controlling your anger.
1. 2.
There’s a reason you’ve probably never gotten into an angry state of mind from a chair. W. Robert Nay, a clinical professor, says, “Our brains become conditioned to associate sitting and lying down with feeling relaxed.” That’s why it’s so easy to fall asleep on an airplane. Sitting down, Nay says, sends a message of safety and security to your brain.
2. Don’t get mad; get organized.
A study of nearly 11,000 subjects in 42 countries found that the key to hold back anger is preventing it in the first place. Spending a few minutes every morning to map out your day will go far in lowering anger and anxiety levels. The theory: 3.
3. Keep your cool with a pair of shades.
Research in the journal Cognition & Emotion (情绪) found that when people walk in direct sun without sunglasses, the light causes them to feel depressed. 4. Study co-author Daniele Marzoli suggests seeking shade during heated exchanges: “Compared outdoor, indoor conversations have more friendly interactions.”
4. Handle anger in a sensible way.
We are busy working all day as if running a car on the high way. But remember: remind yourself to brake at any time in case of sudden crash. When you’ re in anger, say to yourself, “Why am I angry? Is it necessary?” 5. It’s useful to handle problems.
A. Take a seat right now.
B. Don’t be an angry bird.
C. Well begun is half done.
D. You’re suddenly a crazy angry person.
E. Effective time management keeps you on track, avoiding stress.
F. When attention is transferred, blind emotion will be controlled.
G. Those who walked unshaded against the rays had increased aggressiveness scores.
