The other side follows and presents theirs. In an actual debate, there is often a discussion after both sides have presented their views.Speakers in a debate will represent opposite views on the subject being discussed. You may find that you agree with some points made by one debater, and some points made by the other. This is fine. In fact, most people find themselves in the middle on many difficult issues.While reading or listening to a debate, remember that each speakers speech is meant to convince you. If the speakers are good debaters, you will find yourself agreeing with both of them. Just keep in mind that you should not make a final decision until you have read or listened to both sides completely and understood all of the arguments made by each side.二Language Points1. comment:1 N.
