2. COVID 19 BLUES
The author was disappointed with covid-19, which caused him a lot of
inconveniences. The author feels sad, anxious, and unhappy. The message he tried
to convey in the video was how covid-19 affected other people and his life. People
cannot go to work or go out to have fun. Everyone was forced to be locked at home.
To ensure the health of society, everyone should wash their hands frequently and
stay safe at home. In addition, he cannot go abroad to visit his mother. He also told
us what would happen if the lockdown rules were not followed.
This is a movie by Nick Vujicic. He is born disabled and has no arms or legs. He is an
inspiring speaker. He is always brave enough to overcome the challenges in life and
never give up. Once, he wanted to commit suicide because he felt that no legs or
hands were useless. The whole video mainly shares life. The power of
encouragement can save a person's life. First, we must know who we are and what
value we have. Second, what is our goal in life? Always be happy, be yourself, follow
our hearts to face life, and move towards yourself. One day, we will find out why we
are here. Always remember that everyone has their own mission in life. We must
stand up when we fall. If it fails, try again and again until you succeed. If not, we will
never succeed. Don't be angry with what we don't have, but thank us for having it.
5. English Speech, The Rock: Be Yourself.
Dwayne Johnson expressed a candid tone and shared his career with the audience
in a loving way. He is very happy and grateful for sharing his own experiences.
Regardless of the fact that most stories are built and created in sad emotions, he
shared his career story with the audience. For example, he had nothing before and
was deported when he was around 14 and 15 years old. He saw his mother cry
because they didn't have money to pay the tenant. Only at the turning point did he
know that he had the power to work hard and succeed. He was very strict when he
grew up, but he was not the strict father of his daughter. What he wants to mention is
the importance of discipline in our lives. He feels relieved about his past, and
gratitude is always his main attitude. He wants to convey this, to express his identity
and be loyal to his importance and strength.
