第1题：
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.
What prevents people from writing on is ________.
A) putting their ideas in raw form
B) attempting to edit as they write
C) ignoring grammatical soundness
D) trying to capture fleeting thoughts（B）
选B
分析：

第二步：找原文。“Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us encounter”大多数人在写作中遇到的最大困难很可能就是想要边写边修改。

B) attempting to edit as they write在写作的过程中想要修改编辑
C) ignoring grammatical soundness忽视语法
D) trying to capture fleeting thoughts想要抓住稍纵即逝的想法
句子理解题。第二段第一句话就表明写作中遇到的最大困难很可能就是想要边写边修改，与选项B一致，因此为正确答案。 -
