What will be an ideal response?

- Avoid sounding self-important or pretentious. Do not use language that makes others think you are arrogant. It is best to create a common bond between the speaker and the audience.
- Avoid signs of disrespect. Speakers should avoid racial slurs, sexist remarks, and ethnic jokes. These debase and degrade other people and are inappropriate.
- Avoid inappropriate emotion. Remember that culture should be considered as emotions play a different role in different cultures.
