Writing is learned by imitation. If anyone asked me how I learned to write, I'd say I learned by reading the men and women who were doing the kind of writing I want to do and trying to figure out how they did it.

Never hesitate to imitate another writer. Imitation is part of the creative process for anyone learning an art or a craft. Bach and Picasso didn't spring full-blown as Bach and Picasso; they needed models. This is especially true of writing. Find the best writers in the fields that interest you and read their work aloud. Get their voice and their taste into your ear--their attitude toward language.

怎样减少写作错误：

观察（别人是怎么写的）-- 学习

临摹（我会怎么写）-- 内化/学以致用

对比（我和别人写的有什么不同）-- 自我反馈（注意变化和不变化的地方）

示例：

原句：Concrete has become the world's most widely used building material.

临摹：Aircrafts have become the world's most widely used mode of transportation.

注意：哪些变了哪些没变？

Be deliberately, strategically, and proudly dumb.

怎样利用“每周一段”？

1.背诵

2.临摹

3.学习其他同学的段落

不要用战术上的勤奋掩盖战略上的懒惰！

自我反省：参加社群最初目的就是为了提高最薄弱的写作和口语能力，但社群中每周一段却一直没敢写，绞尽脑汁追求完美，然后迟迟不敢动笔。殊不知写作不是写出来的，而是模仿修改出来的，如Eric所说：读书最重要的就是去“读”一样，写作最重要的也是动笔去“写”！需要从最初的背诵开始，先背诵模仿再不断的修改打磨。

背诵-模仿-对比-修正，行动起来！
