Of course, you should be larger in the scope of the content, and don't always seem to be trying to make up words around the topic. I suggest you elaborate more divergent thinking in the last module of the paper to sublimate the topic. After all, when you replied, he said he was listening to your paper and reading it, so he didn't actually write it down. If you make a final argument and make the finishing point, you can get extra points.

At present, there is a common problem in students' thesis writing, that is, the topic is too big, which actually reflects the lack of knowledge. For example, law beginners love to talk about abstract and grand topics such as fairness, justice and human rights, because they have only heard of these big words. Ignorant people are fearless, dare to write any questions, and only when they write do they know that they can't control it and regret it. In fact, after studying for a period of time, with more detailed concepts in my mind, I can talk about some specific problems.
So the more you know, the more you don't know, the more cautious you are in choosing a topic.
So many small things are small things? For example, a suitable topic, like a walnut, can be firmly grasped with one hand, no matter how big or too small. Too small, like sesame, to catch, too big, like watermelon, to catch. From the student's point of view, I think the main problem is to prevent the topic from being too big.
On the one hand, the size of the topic depends on the researcher's current control ability. If you can't control it, the topic will be big. As long as you feel that the problem can't be controlled for the time being, you should immediately narrow the scope and raise the limit. In fact, when a problem is limited enough, it is easy for you to talk about it and how to extend it. On the contrary, if you start with a big topic and have no control ability, you will feel uncomfortable how to write it. On the other hand, it also depends on the existing research situation in academic circles. It is easy to write a big topic in the early years, because there is not much research in academic circles and there are few corresponding research resources. It is not easy to grasp such a big topic of writing now.
In fact, the topic is not afraid of small, because people who can write can always make a mountain out of a molehill. By "small", I mean starting from a small point, and trying to narrow down the problem to the range you can grasp. The so-called big, that is, to have a big vision, to talk about the big truth from small problems.
