How often have you used brainstorming to solve a problem? Chances are,you've used it at least once,even if you did not realize it. For decades,people have used brainstorming to generate (生成) ideas,and to come up with creative solutions to problems. However,you need to use brainstorming correctly for it to be fully effective. 1 Step 1 :Prepare the Group First,set up a comfortable meeting environment for the session. Make sure that the room is well lit and that you have the tools,resources,and refreshments that you need.
How much information or preparation does your team need in order to brainstorm solutions? Remember that prep is important,but too much can limit―or even destroy―the freewheeling nature of a brainstorming session.
2 A room full of likeminded people won't generate as many creative ideas as a diverse group,so try to include people from a wide range of disciplines and include people with a variety of different thinking styles.
Step 2 :Present the Problem Clearly define the problem that you want to solve,and lay out any criteria that you must meet. Make it clear that the meeting's objective is to generate as many ideas as possible.
Give people plenty of quiet time at the start of the session to write down as many of their own ideas as they can. 3 Step 3 :Guide the Discussion Once everyone has shared their ideas,start a group discussion to develop other people's ideas,and use them to create new ideas. 4 Encourage everyone to contribute and to develop ideas,including the quietest people,and discourage anyone from criticizing ideas.
Share ideas if you have them,but spend your time and energy supporting your team and guiding the discussion.
5 People are most creative when they are enjoying themselves in a relaxing environment.
A. Consider who will attend the meeting.
B. After the brainstorming session,you'll have a lot of ideas.
C. Above all,remember to let everyone have fun while brainstorming.
D. To run a group brainstorming session (会议,会期) effectively,follow these steps.
E. Building on others' ideas is one of the most valuable aspects of group brainstorming.
F. Then,ask them to share their ideas,while giving everyone a fair opportunity to contribute.

"头脑风暴"被广泛地用来解决问题,但如何正确进行?有哪些注意事项呢?本文论述了小组进行头脑风暴的一些重点。
1. D本句承上启下。此处需要一句话引出下文。下文列举了三个步骤,与D选项中的"steps"—词呼应。
2. A本段后面几句说的是要集中不同背景、不同思维方式的人,因此此处的主题句应是考虑谁来参加头脑风暴。
3. F前一句讲的是让人们先尽可能多地把自己的想法写下来,那么下一步应该是分享这些想法。"then"这个词体现了递进关系。
4. E上一句讲的是发展别人的观点,在此基础上产生新的点子,也就是E选项中"build on others' ideas"的意思。
5. C最后强调要享受头脑风暴的过程,"above all"体现了这种强调:下文"enjoy"与C选项中的"have fun "相呼应。
