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 (稍縱即逝的) 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 nonstop, usually for 1520 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 e 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 pages as the deadline draws near.Instead of staring at a blank start filling it with words no matter how bad. Halfway through you 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.注意：此部分試題請在答題卡2上作答。N (for NO) if statement contradicts the information given in the passage。（9）低沼氣礦井、掘進(jìn)工作面與回采工作面的電氣設(shè)備應(yīng)分開供電，局部扇風(fēng)機實行風(fēng)電沼氣閉鎖，沼氣噴出區(qū)域、高壓沼氣礦井、煤與沼氣突出礦井中，所有掘進(jìn)工作面的局扇機械裝設(shè)三專（專用變壓器、專用開關(guān)、專用線路）二閉鎖設(shè)施即風(fēng)、電、沼氣閉鎖 歷年英語四級考試真題及答案（— 共十一套）2007年6月英語四級真題及答案Part I Writing (30 minutes)注意：此部分試題在答題卡1上。變壓器臺數(shù)確定對采區(qū)變電所一臺變壓器滿足要求時盡量選一臺。采區(qū)變壓器的選擇變壓器的型號選擇在確定變壓器型號時，應(yīng)考慮變壓器的使用場所、電壓等級和容量等級，還應(yīng)考慮巷道斷面、運輸條件、備品配件來源等因素。故選用礦用變壓器KS11。根據(jù)現(xiàn)場情況，選一臺變壓器。Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1.For questions 17, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage。11.
