The advice given by a teacher is generally an important reference. If possible, you can consult your tutor, modify the paper in a targeted way, and sort out the questions that you can't answer before. For example, the citation of references has always been a hot question and answer. In the duplicate check report given to the students after the paper test, the references and overlapping parts of the literature will also be indicated for the convenience of recording and viewing.

Even if you are nervous and forget your words, you should be superficial, and the second debate is not difficult.
