Professor King, what exactly is critical thinking?
金教授，确切地说到底什么是批判性思考？
Well, when you read critically,

When you read an academic text,

first you should identify the argument and work out the writer's main line of reasoning.

OK. What then?

Try to analyze and criticize the argument.

I see.

That's why you often ask whether the argument is presented in a logical way.

Right! Then assess the evidence the writer gives you.

That may be in the form of figures, survey results, examples, etc.

How about the writer's conclusions?

Got it, thanks, Professor King.
