<!-- (audio) James: If we find critical bugs, we'll probably have to roll back the deployment and fix them before trying again. It might delay the release, but it's better than having a broken product.--> <!-- SPEAKING -->

--instructions--

Listen to the audio and answer the question.

--questions--

--explanation--

To agree with someone, you can use phrases like:

  • I agree.

  • That makes sense.

  • You're right.

To add another point, you can use:

  • Another thing I'm curious about is...

  • One more thing I'd like to know is...

Sophie first agrees with James (I agree.) and then introduces a new topic she wants to discuss (Another thing I'm curious about is performance.).
