2017年2月9日,希望能够每天通过简书输出一些当天阅读、总结的东西,包括中文的、英文的、整段文字、一个句子、一个句型、甚至是一个作文题目的提纲、一个透彻的论证思路等等。希望能与大家一起交流、共同成长,如果成长做不到最起码希望能够督促自己每天主动去阅读且输出。如果自己能够再幸运一点的话,希望得到前辈的指点(真心求拍砖!)。祝愿社交化的学习能让我们彼此成长,长成我们期待的样子。
DAY10
In other words, many people may have simply told you to think without ever explaining what thinking is and what qualities a good thinker has that a poor thinker lacks.
If that is the case, you have a lot of company. Extensive, effective training in thinking is the exception rather than the rule.
The most interesting and astounding contradiction in life is to me the constant insistence by nearly all people upon "logic", "logic reasoning", "sound reasoning", on the one hand, and on the other their inability to display it,and their unwillingness to accept it when displayed by others.
Most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do.
Clear thinking is a very rare thing, but even just plain thinking is almost as rare. Most of us most of the time do not think at all. We believe and we feel, but we do not think.
Mental indolence is one of the commonest of human traits.
What is this activity that everyone claims is important but few people have mastered?
All of those are just the names that thinking goes under. They really don't explain it. The fact is, after thousands of years of humans' experiencing thought and talking and writing about thinking, it remains in many respects one of the great mysteries of our existence. Still, though much is yet to be learned, a great deal is already known.
