yes is not so simple “是”不那么简单
rule 1. always say more than yes or no. always.
规则1、 不要总是说“是的”或“不”。
example:
=:-o "do you understand?"
=:{} "yes, i understand."
例子1：
=:-o “你明白了吗？”
=:{} “是的，我明白了。”
in all interactions, particularly any kind of learning, an atmosphere of two-way communication must be reinforced. let others know more about you! being able to ask and answer deep questions is important in the world of english.
在所有的交往，尤其是学习中，必须采用双向沟通。让别人更了解你！能用英语提出或者回答有深度的问题是很重要的。
if you just say yes while answering a question, you end a conversation. do not travel down a dead end street. say more than yes or no. when studying english, if you are asked a question, it will help you to incorporate the entire question into the answer.
当你回答一个问题时，如果只是说“是的”，那你就结束了交谈。不要走向死胡同。不要只说是的或者不。学习英语的时候如果你被要求提一个问题则有助于你将问题与答案合二为一。

now you are open to say more about your computer skills.
例子2:
=:-o 你会操作计算机吗？
