2. Sample speech discussing the issue of antibiotic overuse
Hello everyone, I'm Khánh Huyền. Today, I'd like to share my thoughts on the debate 'Some believe antibiotics should not be overused, while others argue they are the fastest remedy during illness.' I invite you all to listen and consider.
In recent years, the world has been shaken by outbreaks like COVID-19, monkeypox, and flu, sparking widespread concern. Some people focus on boosting their health with fruits, vegetables, and supplements. Others, however, take a more casual approach to sickness, choosing medication as their go-to solution. What are your thoughts on this matter? Do you understand what 'antibiotics' truly mean?
Personally, I disagree with the notion that antibiotics are the best quick fix for illnesses. Antibiotics are antibacterial agents produced by organisms like fungi, bacteria, and Actinomycetes, designed to inhibit the growth of other microbes. Despite their effectiveness in fighting off infections, why should their use be regulated? I'll explain further to clarify this point.
Firstly, it's crucial to understand 'misuse' means exceeding the recommended limits of something. Hence, antibiotics should not be used without a prescription from a qualified doctor.
Many people opt for over-the-counter medications instead of consulting a doctor when sick, leading to adverse effects from misuse such as antibiotic resistance, increased poisoning risk, and potential allergic reactions, particularly in children.
It's crucial for everyone to use antibiotics wisely. Seek medical advice when ill, and maintain a healthy lifestyle through regular exercise and a balanced diet to strengthen the immune system.
This concludes my presentation. Thank you all for your attention.

2. Sample Speech on Thị Mầu from 'Thị Mầu at the Temple' Scene
Greetings, I'm Gia Huy. Today, I'll share my thoughts on Thị Mầu from 'Thị Mầu at the Temple', depicted as frivolous and malicious by some, while others see her as courageously true to herself.
Dear friends, contrasting Thị Kính's virtue, Thị Mầu embodies looseness and recklessness. I align with the view that Thị Mầu is indeed frivolous and ill-natured.
Initially, her recklessness is vivid through mockery. Upon entering the temple, she teases Kính Tâm without fear. Her flirty remarks, 'So young and unmarried, eh monk?', followed by 'Who's this dazzling like a shooting star?', demonstrate her frivolity. Moreover, her actions, seeking to touch the novice monk, blatantly ignore societal norms, culminating in her disdainful comment, 'What’s the use of Buddha?'
To make your presentation more engaging, consider incorporating non-verbal elements like images and videos. Remember to confidently share your perspectives during the presentation!
