Hello,
I am a non-native speaker and sometimes I get into the situation that I don't understand the text of a problem.
How do you deal with such situations?

Hi Schachfreizeit.
If you're doing a practice question, your best move is to spend all the time you need to do your best to understand the passage and answer the question correctly.
You may find that eventually you can sort out the meaning, and in the process of doing so, you can learn a lot.
A move that sometimes works is to substitute a word that you know for word that you don't know. You may find that you can answer the question by using the substituted word.
If you're taking the actual GMAT and having difficulty understanding a question and don't feel that you'll be able to answer it correctly in the allotted time, then, probably, your best move is to guess and move on.

May be helpful to provide a few examples of the problems you are referring to. Although there is a difference in what I may suggest a non-native English speaker to consider doing while reading through passages versus a native English speaker, generally speaking, if you are not familiar with reading English, practicing with similar articles from The Economist may not be a bad idea whatever method you ultimately choose.
Some quick RC tips on the gmatknight website if that's a section you find slippery.
