R If you don’t restate the question somewhere in your response, your audience will spend most of their time trying to figure out what you’re talking/writing about. AIf you don’t answer in detail, they will only get a superficial (fluffy) idea of what you’re thinking. P If you don’t use an example or evidence, they will think you don’t really have any proof to back up your idea. TIf you don’t thoroughlyexplain your proof, they will wonder whether it really proves what you’re saying or whether you just threw something out there hoping it will help prove your point.
