People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution, from the last time they had a 　　36　 　problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without 　37　 , they try to find a solution by trial or error. 　38 　　, when all of these methods 　　39　 , the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six 　40　 　in analyzing a problem.

　 41　 　the person must recognize that this is a problem. For example, Sam's bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must 　　42　 　that there is a problem with the bicycle.

Next, the person must find the problem.　 Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work.　 For example, he must 　43　 　the parts that are wrong.

Now the person must look for 　　44 　　that will make the problem clearer and lead to 　45　 　solutions.　 For example, suppose Sam decides that his bicycle does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. 　46　 　, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, talk to his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.

After 　47　 　the problem, the person should have 　48　 　suggestions for a possible solution.　 Take Sam as an example 　　49　 　, his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes ; buy new brakes and change old ones.

In the end, one 　　50 　　seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the　 51　 　idea comes quite 　52　 　because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a different way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum (口香糖) stuck to a brake. He 　　53 　　hits on the solution to his problem: he must　

　 54 　　the brake.

Finally the solution is 　55　 　Sam does it and finds his bicycle work perfectly. In short, he has solved the problem.
