What you actually say, in terms of the words you use, is something that you have to decide. You need to create an answer that sounds natural and, at the same time, interesting. 背答案估计没有人愿意听。The way to determine whether your answer is natural is simply by writing a first draft of the answer and then read it out loud. When you do this, you’ll probably spot things that you have to change.

当你构思答案时，你要想想应该如何说出，内容要令人感兴趣，不沉闷，避免滔滔不绝地只说自己的强项。
