Question

13．Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it？Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind．How can you use this to increase your brain power？Start writing．
   By putting thoughts into words，you are telling yourself the logic （逻辑） behind what you think，feel，or only partly understand．Often，explaining a thought is the process of understanding．In other words，you increase your brain power by exercising your"explain power．"
   Try this experiment．Explain how you'll increase your brain power，even if you have no idea right now．Just start with anything，and create an explanation．For example，start with"I'll learn chess，"or"I'll read an article on the mind every week．"Explain how that will help．You'll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan，and if you actually do this，you'll have a better understanding of your brain from now．
    Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember．Many，if not most，highly productive people are always taking notes．You can try keeping it all in your head，but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time you're working on a big project，you'll probably have more success．
   Want to understand a topic？Write a book about it．That's an extreme example，but if you are learning something new，write a letter to a friend about it，and you will understand it better．Want to invent something？Write an explanation of the problem，why you want to solve it，and why it is worth solving，and you're half-way there．
   Writers don't always write because they clearly understand something beforehand．Often，they write about something because they want to understand it．You can do the same．Writing will help bring you to an understanding．Give it a try．

解答 BCDA68．答案  B     概括标题题．本文主要是讲了通过写作，可以把你自己的一些想法理解地更加清晰，更加透彻，从而进一步提高你的大脑思维能力．选项B揭示了本文的主旨．
69．答案 C      细节判断题．文章第二段、第四段和第五段分别提到了选项A、B、D的内容，而对于选项C，文章则没有涉及到．

75．答案 A     推理判断题．本篇文章通过叙述写作的优点，说明其重要性，但是，所有这些都是为了劝说读者进行写作所进行的铺垫，特别是文章的最后一段的最后一句，更是点名了本篇文章真实目的．
