teachers, parents and my fellow freinds. Today, on this fine day, I would
like to present a public speech about the advantages and disadvantages
of bringing handphone to school. It is an issue where it could be
implemented soon. Before it takes place, let's look the pros and cons of
this matter.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Handphones, mobile phones, and tablets are becoming common in
almost everywhere in our society, even now, small children have it too.
Today, It has become a must have item to everyone. Even now, If I ask
the audience, whether they have a handphone, probably almost all will
say yes, isn't? Well, as for now this question exclude the students,
because students are still prohibited to bring handphone to school, but if
students are allow to bring handphone, most probably, all the audience in
this hall, will say yes.
But then, is it a good idea to allow students to bring handphone to school
? In every story, there are two sides of contracting ideas, therefore, I
would like to take this opportunity, to let the audiences know the
advantages and disadvantages of allowing students to bring handphone to
school.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Let me start my speech by stating the first advantages of student bring
phone to school that is, to make communication easier, especially
between parents and their children. It will allow them to communicate
with each other at any time. In the past, parents often never knew where
their children were until they came home. With handphone, parents can
check up on their kids and arrange transportation or relay important
information if necessary at any time they want. Like for example, the
children can tell their parents what are their activities and thus make the
parents less worry about their children whereabouts.
Thank you to the Master of Ceremony. Friends, let us ponder for a moment
about some of these startling statistics. These statistics are by no means
exclusive to Malaysia but is a worldwide phenomenon. In 2010, the obesity
rate in Malaysia was 26.5%. In 2011, it shot up even higher to 28%. So after
28%, does it mean that in 2020, where our country will be a fully-developed
nation, the rate would correspondingly be 41.5%? Or in 2050, it will be
86.5%? Being of normal weight would be at that time an endangered
species then. Think about it. How are we going to prevent this?
A very good morning to the honorable judges, teachers and my fellow
friends. My name is Dhanvin Kumar Lal Asokan and I am standing here
today to deliver a speech entitled How To Lead A Healthy Life. I do not
profess to expert on this subject, but I will try to shed some light on this
matter.
What is healthy living? According to Webster Dictionary, healthy living is
living a life without having to worry about diseases and body size. To obtain
healthy living is not easy. We have to work hard to get it. There are several
ways one can lead a healthy life. Among the ways are having a proper diet,
having enough sleep, having enough exercise and also a proper time
management.
So before I go on, let us see the ways to get a proper diet. Our diet should
follow the food pyramid. We should eat sufficient carbohydrates such as
rice, bread and noodles. We must eat plenty of vitamins such as fruits and
vegetables. We should also eat proteins such as fish, meat and chicken, but
in moderation. We shouldnt eat fatty and greasy foods such as junk food,
butter and margarine. If we follow this diet effectively, we will get a lot of
good and rewarding benefits.
Another way that we should practice is eating at the right time. How many
of us have breakfast in the morning? Not many, right as we are all too busy
trying to make it to school on time? This is wrong because breakfast gives
us energy to start a fresh day. If we do not have breakfast in the morning,
we will feel very tired and sleepy. In fact, some cultures advocate breakfast
as the most important meal of the day. Without a proper breakfast, our
concentration span will also reduce, thus making us unable to comprehend
what is taught in class.
We should get enough sleep every day. I am not hinting to my friends to
take forty winks when they are in class. An average child needs at least 8
hours of sleep. For example, if we wake up at 6am, we should sleep at 10pm
every night. What will happen if we do not get enough sleep? Well, for sure
we will feel very sleepy and unable to comprehend what is taught in class,
thus making us to lose out.
We must get enough exercise time every day. How many of us exercise
every day? I am afraid to admit that I am also one of the guilty ones who
fall in this category. We should exercise because when we sweat, the fats in
our bodies will break. If we do not exercise, we will become obese and this
may lead to various lifestyle diseases such as heart attack and diabetes. Our
exercise routine should consist of a variety of activities such as running,
games like football and basketball and also physical exercise such as tennis
and swimming so that we dont get bored with the same activities. Make
sure you exercise and dont say I have exercised! when you actually
havent. Lifestyle diseases are one of the easily preventable diseases which
have overtaken other communicable diseases like malaria and dengue.
We should also manage our time properly. Preparing a timetable and
adhering to it strictly is the best way we can manage our time. If we do not
have a timetable, we will feel stressed and unable to do our activities
effectively because we will be rushing to do them. Plan your activities well
so that it does not clash with your daily routine.
If you follow my suggestions to lead a healthy life, I am sure we
can build a healthier Malaysia. Thank you for lending me your
ears.
only useful for skin health but also can make our mood better from its aroma. So guys, if you
feel in bad mood. Just takes orange and smell it. Then, Orange contains limonene extract.
Besed on a research done by university of Arizona to 470 males and females, its known that

Next, carrot. It is not only rich of vitamin a that good for eyes health. carrot and various of
red, yellow and orange vegetables contain karotenoid (natural red color in fruits and
vegetable) it is known that it is able to decrease burned skin because of ultraviolet and
betakaroten on it is also able to make slower process of early aging and skin cancer.
Consume red fruits help to increase the skin protection to bad effect of ultraviolet. Because
these fruits are rich of beta-karoten, lycopene, vitamin C & E which will make bright and
shine skin. You can see tomato, we often consume it. It is also one of fruit that has much
nutrition which is good for skin health.
If we see this vegetable, it remind to a cartoon character popaye a sailor. Yah .. vegetables
that have dark green color like spinach contains antioksidan element, it is able to make slower
the growth of danger cells because of sun ultraviolet.
Well then, we never perceive that actually getting healthy skin is easy. There are so many
foods that we meet every day can beautify our skin. I have already proved the advantages of
vegetables and fruits. It works. How about you? Have you ever tried to beautify your skin by
healthy food? Lets consume vegetables and fruits routinely, it will make your skin escapes
from early aging. Even though there are many cosmetic products that claimed be able to
against aging marks. But the result will not be maximum if it is not supporting with inside
treatment.
The last, I quote from the internet, Dr. Glenys Jones from Cambridge University explained
the technique of preparing the good and healthy food can decide beauty skin. It need not be
expensive, as long as you know the right fruits and vegetables that good for your skin health.
In conclusion, at the same time .. there are many people do not consume the portion which
be suggested. So people spend money for beauty treatment for their skin. In fact, by
consuming vegetables and fruits, we dont need to spend extra money for our beautiful and
healthy skin.
Here is the poem healthy skin :
