Default calculate the exact amount of the pot
I have started playing hold'em for a while and I have faced a problem.I cant find a practical way to calculate the exact amount of the pot.counting the number of the bets cannot help me enough,since the amount of bets changes in every round (eg.$2-4-8-8).counting every bet as a big bet gives me false $ pot amount.what is the right thing to do?

The first option is clearly the only reasonable choice. Do you see why?

I would have advised using a "very simple method" - count the number of bets, then divide by 2 when the bet size doubles; but after seeing your poll, I think you should just ask the dealer each time.
