    FORMAT
    1. INTRODUCTION
    OPENING LINE- This includes salutations, introduction, and the topic. (Example-
    Respected Principal, teachers, and my dear friends! Today, I (the name is given in
    the question) stand before you all to speak on the topic “(given in the question)”. OR
    you could start with a quote related to the topic and then go with the salutations and
    introduction.
    2.BODY- It is the main part of your writing piece.
    a. It is always prescribed that you begin with a short introduction on the topic, it’s
    meant to be precise.
    b. Then you need to explain the current situation, the problems (if any), and whether
    after any corrective actions, betterment in the situation has been observed or not.
    c. It may include advantages/ disadvantages depending upon the topic in question.
    d. Now here, it is important you follow a sequence. It is possible that you have too
    many points or very few points. When you have a lot of varied points, it is better to
    choose a few best ones and write a line on each.
    MOST IMPORTANTAlways begin with your strongest point. You can accommodate
    the weaker ones in between and end with another strong point.
    e. Feel free to give your opinion in one or two lines.
    f. It is very important that you do not deviate from the topic. There are chances you
    may get ideas linking from one to another that may deviate you from the main point.
    You have to refrain from doing so.
    3. CONCLUDING PARAGRAPH- Now, it is to be remembered that wherever you
    elaborate a problem, you must mention the steps being taken to improvise the
    situation and suggest a few solutions as well.
    4. Thank you.
    POINTS TO REMEMBER
    *It would be great if you could add a few quotes relating to motivating the people to
    take action. Here also, the rule of STRONG-WEAK-STRONG applies.
    * It is very important to conclude what you’ve started. Never leave a speech or for
    that matter, any of your answers open-ended.
    Q1. As an active member of the Science Club of your school, write a speech on
    the topic ‘Advantages of Nuclear Power’. You are Raghav/Ramita of class XI.

    Ans. A very good morning to respected principal ma’am, worthy teachers and my
    dear friends. I am Raghav and It is a matter of great privilege for me, that I have got
    an opportunity to share my views on the Advantages of Nuclear Power’.
    Atomic energy and technology possess a vast potential to improve the quality of life.
    It’s a gift to mankind for fulfilling many of its needs. With the advent of the technology
    of nuclear power, there is a commendable increase in the development of the
    medical sector. A complex disease like cancer, leprosy, etc. can be treated using
    nuclear power technology. This has saved many lives in an easy and less complex
    manner.
    In the field of agriculture and industry, production has increased manifold with the
    use of nuclear technology, It has helped this sector to progress and prosper a lot. If
    we talk about defence, the surveillance capacity has improved a lot with the use of
    this technology. Now we have more weapons and devices which operate on this
    technology. Thus, nuclear power is safeguarding the nation. In the field of basic
    amenities, this technology works in the form of reverse osmosis which purifies water
    and spares us from the till effects of unsafe water. The most important contribution is
    electricity. The electricity supply has increased drastically with the advent of nuclear
    power reactors.
    In a nutshell, nuclear power has changed our lives for the better. Similarly, there are
    some things which need to be taken care of in this regard. It should not be used to
    destroy life or using it in wars. It should serve mankind.
    Thank you.
    Q2. You are Ali/Alia, Head girl / Head boy of your school. You are deeply disturbed
    by the rising cases of aggressive behaviour of students in your school. You decide to
    speak during the morning assembly about it. Write a speech on ‘Indiscipline in
    Schools’. (150 – 200 words)
    Answer
    It has been reported that number of fights and cases of bullying has gone up
    tremendously in the last few months in our school. Good morning to one and all
    present here. Today, I, Ali/Alia, your head boy/girl stand before you to throw light
    upon the grave issue of “Increasing Indiscipline in Schools”.
    It has been brought into limelight that disobedience of teachers, bullying, fights with
    peers, truancy and insults is becoming a common trend. Not only this, but there have
    also been complaints of parents witnessing a shift in their children’s attitude. This is
    resulting in a lot of children getting hurt emotionally, mentally, and physically. The
    impact this attitude is having on kids at early age is disastrous and irreversible. Not
    to forget the damage that has been done to the school property. Stealing chalks,
    scribbling on desks, walls, and washroom doors, destroying CCTV cameras and the
    list goes on. By doing this, we are only letting us deprive ourselves of the amenities
    being provided to us.
    After a lot of meetings, lack of proper guidance, excessive use of social media and
    peer pressure have been observed to be the root causes of the problem. The council
    is taking steps to improve the situation. Life skill classes are being made mandatory
    for everyone. Teachings will include counselling, motivation and inculcating friendly
    values. Seminars for parents and students will be regularly organised.
    We are doing everything we can and expect the same from you. So, let’s join our
    hands together and build an environment where we encourage, motivate, help and
    be kind to each other for we are good and civilised beings capable of a lot of love.
    Thank you.
