Debate?

A debate is when two groups of people have a discussion about a specific topic, and they each present their own arguments and ideas about it. They try to convince the audience that their point of view is correct. There is a moderator who makes sure that the debate stays on track and everyone follows the rules.

Debate?

During the debate, each team presents their arguments, and then the other team has the chance to respond and present counterarguments. The audience might also have the chance to ask questions and make comments. At the end of the debate, each team has a short closing statement to sum up their arguments.

Debate?

The idea of a debate is to present different opinions and to help people understand different perspectives on the topic being discussed.
