Sample Answer
Qu. Do you think that people become better communicators as they get
older?
I think that people’s ability to communicate does improve with age because
generally speaking, people get more confident as they gain more experience
of life and I believe that confidence is a major factor. On the other hand,
some people may become more self-conscious as they got older, particularly
when they reach certain stages in their life such as adolescence. For me
personally, I feel that I’m a better communicator now than when I was
younger.
