Public Speaking Competition
On 13rd November, my daughter took part in Public Speaking Competition. She is nine years old. It was the first time she entered the public speaking competition like this. I supported her and found out the suitable script for her. Here is the public speaking script that she used during the competition.
A very good morning to the
judges, teachers and fellow friends.
Today, I am going to talk about the pleasure of reading.
Do you like reading?.....
How about you? Yes…. I know, most of you like reading.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Reading is an immensely pleasurable
pastime. When we read, we become more knowledgeable. This helps greatly in our
academic performance as well as in our social life.
Teachers and friends,
Besides providing information, reading is also a great
source of entertainment. Comic books, for example, never fail to amuse the
readers and help them to relax. There are a variety of comic books such as
Detective Conan, Upin Ipin comic and
Doraemon.
Song- Daraemon
Yes, Doraemon comics. I
like it.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Some other entertaining
reading materials are novels such as ‘Harry Potter’ and Twilight. Poetry such
as Sonnet 18 by William Shakespeare, and magazines.
Reading travel magazines can bring us around the world. Indonesia,
Japan, China, Australia and other countries. We can learn so much about
a country and its culture from reading without travelling there
physically.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Have you ever heard about
Kuang Heng story?? A boy from China who loved reading so much. Even though the
boy was poor, he loved reading. Through reading, he found happiness and joy. He
worked hard for the rich and asked for nothing more in return than books.
Years passed and his
diligence paid off. Kuang Heng was intelligent and full of wisdom. He wrote
many books and became famous in China. It was his determination and diligence
that made him a famous person.
Teachers and friends,
We should make reading a
habit because reading is learning. I believe we should never stop reading because
learning is a life long process. So, as a student, we must read a lot.
Thank you.
