"Critical" as used in the expression "critical thinking" connotes the importance or centrality of the thinking to an issue,question or problem of concern."Critical" in this context does not mean "disapproved" or "negative."
Critical 修饰 thinking,它的意思就是强调思考之于问题解决的重要性,甚至可以不翻译出来,直接把critical thinking理解成“思考,思考能力”就可以了.具体到西方背景下,这种貌似我们天朝惯常所说的“思考能力”实际是抛开偏见成见先见的束缚,独立自主,不用某种思想来指导的思考.
