1.When do you need to be focused?

You mean, apart from when I'm studying? Uh, I don't know, when I'm trying to complete something dangerous, like chopping carrots, or sewing（缝） something. Cuz, apparently, I may get injured by knives or needles if I don't fully concentrate. It did happen last summer. One afternoon I was cooking while talking to my mom, when suddenly I cut my finger. Fortunately, it wasn't a deep cut.

2.What may distract you when you are trying to stay focused?

Well, a sudden and big noise, for instance. Say, if I am trying to work out an academic problem, and there is a huge thud（砰地一声） in the living room, of course, I'd stop working and start wondering if my dad clumsily（笨手笨脚地） tripped over himself, like, again. I'd have to check if there's a problem, and that's just human nature.

3.What do you do to help you concentrate?

Mostly I just move my mobile and other devices to another room. Cuz the way I see it, the biggest distraction nowadays would be social networks, they are like heroin（海洛因） for your brain. If my phone is within my reach, I can never really focus. At the very least, I mute it and flip it over（翻过去）.

4.Is it difficult for you to stay focused on something?

Normally it's okay. If I'm really keen on something, I don't really need any assistance in keeping my concentration. For instance, if I'm reading a book that I really like, I'd probably skip meals（忘食） simply because I forget them completely. But sometimes when I'm tired and still need to work, I need an absolutely quiet room to make sure I won't get distracted.
