There are neuronal groups whose firing patterns ____ spatially to the structure of the input — for example, when a column of neurons fires together to represent the fact that a line is part of the visual stimulus.

Thus, different parts of the brain have groups of neurons that fire when ____ kinds of visual, olfactory (smell), taste, auditory, and touch stimuli are presented.

The ____ brain can do a lot more than just represent stimuli presented to it, because a group of neurons can respond to inputs from many groups of neurons.

In principle, you could tape a long list of such rules above your computer and ____ it as the voice of authority on how to reach readers.

But long lists of rules are boring. Besides, using them makes writing mechanical, and good writing sometimes entails ____ when to bend the rules instead of following them.

Furthermore, using a list of rules is oddly indirect: ____ of relying on rules you’ve been told will produce clear text, surely it would be more effective to understand how readers think, and write to that understanding.
