C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
Do you often get angry? If the answer is yes, you are not alone. Bad traffic, disagreements with people and other occurrences can potentially be a nuisance. But can you control your temper or show your rage every time someone crosses you?
One footballer known for his temper is Liverpool striker, Louis Suarez. After a confrontation in a match against Chelsea, he sank his teeth into his opponent Branislav Ivanovic"s flesh.
The bite caused outrage and he was ordered to go on an anger management course. Many ordinary people are referred by the police or a doctor, or simply sign up themselves to such courses, too.
The theory of anger management was developed in the 1970s. The first reference to the term cited by the Oxford English Dictionary comes in 1975, in the work of U.S. psychologist Raymond Novaco.
It doesn"t work for everyone. About 30% of people dropped out.
But for those who persevered, it led them to change their behavior.
Among the recommendations for people with a short fuse are: accept that different opinions are acceptable, listen to the other person and don"t take anything personally.
Control used to be seen as restraint. But these days letting it all out, is viewed as destructive behavior. Maybe the best thing is just count to ten when you feel you are about to hit the roof. It might not give you time to calm down but will allow the other person to run away.
