Everyone tends have many problems while gaining knowledge. Therefore, your willingness to deal with these problems will eventually enable you to work it out. What I’d like to share is my approaches to solve the problems.
First, you must focus on which you are faced with. There seems to be a lot of attractive things, like computers or game. To stay focused, you can list these things and tell yourself you should touch them after finishing your work. Second, believe to yourself. Though there is no doubt that each of us might make mistakes or come across some tough problems in learning, but it can never be a reason for the loss of confidence.
Last, keep modest. Never feel embarrassing to turn to your teachers or classmates. Everyone in your surroundings can be your teacher.

Should anger problems also be recognized as an illness like depression and anxiety? Anger is largely viewed as a secondary emotion — one caused by other emotions. People are thought to be angry because they are sad, anxious or stressed. 1. Today, though, a growing number of mental health experts think that anger is a serious problem that needs its own treatment.
To tell the difference between “normal” anger and “anger problem” is difficult. After all, everyone gets really mad from time to time. Experts point out a few ways.
Disordered anger, as it is sometimes called, tends to be of greater intensity (强度). 2. An example: While most people would get upset if a driver cut them off, someone with disordered anger might try to chase down the car and force it off the road.
And in cases of disordered anger, the person gets angry more frequently and his/her anger lasts longer.3. But people with anger problems often stay angry for days, weeks or even years; their feelings of anger don’t disappear over time.
4. Disordered anger often damages people’s lives. “It interferes (干扰) with people’s relationships and their jobs,” says Raymond Chip Tafrate, a US psychologist. “Even their health is affected.”
Anger clearly increases the risk of certain health problems, as many studies have shown. When people are angry, their hearts beat faster and their blood pressure goes up. 5.
Experts suggest that people with an anger problem take anger-management programs. The programs teach people to control their responses to stressful situations through the use of relaxation techniques. The programs sometimes also include life-skills training to help bring down stress and remove angry feelings.
A. Consequences are also important to consider:
B. Anger takes away people’s joy in life.
C. For most people, angry feelings disappear quickly.
D. The anger buried inside him rises to the surface.
E. In the past, many doctors didn’t accept the idea that anger could be a problem all on its own.
F. Over time, these changes will have bad effects on the body.
G. It takes very little to set off a person with an anger problem, and their responses are very strong.
