发现问题要及时加以解决。注意“加以”跟“予以”不同之处是“予以”可以用在一般名词之前，表示给予，如“予以自新之路”，“加以”没有这种用法。

Fāxiàn wèntí yào jíshí jiāyǐ jiějué. Zhùyì 'jiāyǐ' gēn 'yǔyǐ' bùtóng zhī chù shì 'yǔyǐ' kěyǐ yòng zài yībān míngcí zhī qián, biǎoshì jǐyǔ, rú 'yǔyǐ zìxīn zhī lù', 'jiāyǐ' méiyǒu zhè zhǒng yòngfǎ.

Problems should be solved promptly when discovered. Note that the difference between 'jiāyǐ' and 'yǔyǐ' is that 'yǔyǐ' can be used before general nouns to express 'to give,' such as 'yǔyǐ zìxīn zhī lù' (to give a path to reform oneself), while 'jiāyǐ' does not have this usage.
