[简答题] In the past few years， I’ve taught nonfiction writing to undergraduates and graduate students at Harvard， Yale， and Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism. Each semester I hope， and fear， that I will have nothing to teach my students because they already know how to write. And each semester I discover， again， that they don’t.
The teaching of the humanities has fallen on hard times. So says a new report on the state of the humanities by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences， and so says the experience of nearly everyone who teaches at a college or university. Undergraduates will tell you that they’re under pressure — from their parents， from the burden of debt they incur， from society at large — to choose majors they believe will lead as directly as possible to good jobs. Too often， that means skipping the humanities.
In other words， there is a new and narrowing vocational emphasis in the way students and their parents think about what to study in college.

[单项选择]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 mindand 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 "
A. no one can be both creative and critical
B. they cannot be regarded as equally important
C. they are in constant conflict with each other
D. one cannot use them at the same time
