24、   People all have problems. If we don’t deal with these problems, we can easily become unhappy. Worrying about our problems can influence how we do at school. It can also influence the way we behave with our families. So how do we deal with our problems? There are many ways, and here is one of them.

Most of us have probably been angry with our friends, parents or teachers. Perhaps they said something you didn’t like, or you felt they were unfair. Sometimes people can stay angry for years, about a small problem. Time goes by, and good friendship may be lost.

When we are angry, however, we are usually the ones influenced. Perhaps we have seen young children playing together. Sometimes they have disagreements, and decide not to talk to each other. However, this usually does not last for long, because they usually forget it quickly.

根据上述内容，判断下列句子正误，正确的在括号内填“T”，错误的在括号内填“F”。

【1】The main idea of the passage is how to deal with our problems.

【2】Worrying about our problems can’t influence how we do.

【3】Children don’t talk to each other probably because they disagree with each other.

【4】We aren’t influenced when we are angry.

【5】From the text we know an important lesson for us is learning to forget.
