I’ve been writing for most of my life. The book Writing Without Teachers introduced me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing processes tremendously. The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to .employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallel no matter how much we might like to think so.
Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us encounter. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting(稍纵即逝的)thought, the thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in raw form, no one is likely to understand. You must learn to create first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thinking that it is.
The practice that can help you past your learned bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls "free writing". In free writing, the objective is to get words down on paper non-stop, usually for 15-20 minutes. No stopping, no going back, no criticizing. The goal is to get the words flowing. As the words begin to flow, the ideas will come out from the shadows and let themselves be captured on your notepad or your screen.
Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly. Most likely, you will believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the page as the deadline draws near.
Instead of staring at a blank screen, start filling it with words no matter how bad. Halfway through your available time, stop and rework your raw writing into something closer to finished product. Move back and forth until you run out of time and the final result will most likely be far better than your current practices.
What is the chief objective of the first stage of writing?
选项
A、To organize one’s thoughts logically.
B、To choose an appropriate topic.
C、To get one’s ideas down.
D、To collect raw materials.
答案
C
解析
题干问写作第一阶段的目标是什么。文章第三段第二、三句指出,“在自由写作时,我们的目标是在纸上不间断地写下文字,时间通常是15~20分钟。不要停下来、不要回过头去看、不要评判”。虽然文章没有明确说明这是写作的第一阶段,但通过下文可知,这就是作者所提倡的在写作时首先要做的事——把自己的想法都写下来。由此可知,答案为C。其他三项文章都未提及,故排除。
