Doctors say anger can be extremely damaging, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can possibly lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and cancer.

       Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time, some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They cannot or will not express it. This is called repressing(抑制) anger.

       For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones. They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. in general the person feels excited and ready to act.

       Some doctors point out that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be likely to develop heart diseases, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.

       Doctors claim the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. _____________________________, they say, “Don’t express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”

       Doctors note that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They say that laughter is much healthier than anger.

Nowadays a growing number of grassroots entertainers are stepping into the public eye. Although a sudden success provides quick fame, experts say not all the rising stars will have a promising future.

The grassroots band Xu Ri Yang Gang, meaning the rising sun in Chinese, suddenly became popular after uploading a video of them singing “In the Spring”. Actually, they have never stopped struggling to realize their dreams. After that they were frequently invited to big media events in China, like the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.

However, just as many thought they were about to go further, the original singer of the song “In the Spring” stepped in to prevent the band from performing his songs.

Different from Xu Ri Yang Gang, China’s rising star Liu Wei is considered to have more professional skills, enabling him to enjoy a long-lasting career. The armless pianist who plays the music of the song “Hope” with his toes has won the champion of the television talent show China’s Got Talent.

Now, he is signed with Fremantle Media and Sony Music, and is kept busy every day. He believes it is his determination that makes him a hit.

Another fairy story is the case of the rising star Susan Boyle. She came to international public attention after appearing as a candidate on Britain’s Got Talent in 2009, singing “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Miserables. Her first album became the biggest selling album in the world in 2009, selling 9 million copies.

As for Chinese grassroots stars, experts say besides big dreams, they need more original compositions to achieve big results.
