Idea 1
Yes, it is
Model Answer
Yes, being talkative can really be a good thing. It often helps improve communication skills since talkative people practice expressing themselves a lot. They get good at sharing their ideas and feelings, which makes them more confident. Being able to communicate well is important in both personal and work situations.
Idea 2
No, it is not
Model Answer
To be honest, being too talkative can sometimes be a problem. It might cause people to share too much, like giving away personal or sensitive information by mistake. Also, it can be tiring, both for the person talking, who might find it hard to be brief, and for those listening, who might get overwhelmed by too much talking.
