A graceful reply to avoid its edge(wan qu zuo da bi qi feng mang )

The tactful way of answering is a way of debating without directly answering the questions raised by the other party.

It is said that someone asked American astronomer Jones: "how old is the earth, can you make it clear?" Jones replied, "it's not hard either. Please imagine that there is a towering mountain, such as ELBRUS in the Caucasus. Imagine a few sparrows, which carefree to jump around, pecking at the mountain. Then, as long as it takes these sparrows to finish pecking the mountain, the earth will exist for as long as possible. " Jones's tactful and tortuous answer not only solves a controversial problem, but also makes people realize that the earth has existed for a long time.

The tactful way of answering is often to avoid the sharp edge and get rid of the predicament, so that the other party changes from the active to the passive, which is more vivid, vivid and powerful than the direct way of answering, and often makes the other party irrefutable.
