Consider a policy your school has -- which classes you can or cannot take; dress code, etc.  If it's a topic you feel strongly about, it will be easier to write.

Be unique and let your writing speak for itself. Write a paper giving your opinion on a controversial matter or a hot topic in your school or community. Then either hang it up or pass it out at your school - campaigning with something like "Vote for me - School Journalist" or something similar to that.  Good Luck.

Well i cant really say what things to SAY at the start, but make sure u dont put too much humour at the start. Small instances or anecdotes will do fine, but the humour should come in patches. As a result audience's interest will always be there. And end the speech in such a way so that it dosent seem something was missing. To end, u can ask questions to the audience. Never say that "i guess thats all i had to say, so i'll stop" It will create a bad impression.\n\nU say u want to say about skydiving etc. I think u better not do it. Cuz by doing that, u'll be drifting away from ur main topic, and the audience will not like that. Always remember the audience will be there to listen on THE topic and not the things u like and want to say...\n\nAnyways, best of luck with your speech !

Please give us a little more detail. For example, what government are you talking about? What is your speech trying to prove? What are the criteria? As a general guideline, if you are writing this to persuade, then make sure you have some persuasive elements in you speech. Such as appeals (rational, emotive etc).

You might consider starting the paper as a contest to the premise.\n\nWhy does your instructor want you to begin with the supposition that there were failures related to the liberal party?\n\nConsider, instead, of focusing on the positive - the successes of the liberal party (WPA, Hoover Dam, Pentagon, Tennessee Valley Authority etc....)\n\nThen, contrast that with some of the failures - perhaps consider interest rates during the 70's, and the Iran Hostage thing. \n\nThen, try to weigh the benefits against the losses.\n\nIf your instructor is truly interested in your grasp of the facts, you'll do well. If you fail - then perhaps your instructor has some issues.\n\nGood luck. God is on your side.

Use an old paper that you got an A on and turn it into a speech.  I did this often in my speech class... I'd take an essay I had to write for english (with a good grade) and make a speech out of it.  Chose something you feel passionate about (this is important - because if you get lost during the speech, you can say anything that comes to mind)... write up an intro, three points, and a conclusion.  Simple.

Write your own speech!  If your teacher cares even the slightest bit, he or she will be able to tell you are plagerizing!!!\n\nI'm deeply sorry for my rash answer.  I aparently had no idea that someone could use a free speech to give them ideas for their own original speech.  I suppose my mind IS limited in this manner because I am an English major and have never taken a formal speech class.  Just please be very careful, because colleges are cracking down on plagerism.  Many of my classmates are very scared of getting caught even for things they don't do on purpose.  It's a very tricky line that is easy to cross, so be careful.\n\nAgain, I am sorry for assuming you were going to turn in the free speech.  I may have been taking out opinions on you that I have of other people who use those free paper web sites.  I don't know of any good sites for that purpose, but I'm sure typing in "free speech" in google would do the trick for you.  I'm sorry for offending you.  Thank you for your advice about biting open the possibly cancerous lump in my lip.  I hope you don't mind if I don't take that advice.\n\nGood luck on your speech.

You could talk about immigration or the war in Iraq or raising minimum wage...those are the boring ones.\n\nIf you want to do something off the wall, I always recommend that people talk about blowing up the moon.  I wrote a 10 minute speech on supporting the destruction of the moon.  There's a lot of evidence to support it, and it's entertaining to research and read.

One thing you want to do for sure is only use the slides for emphasis of main points. If you read from it or a piece of paper you will put people to sleep. Know your material and tell the story changing the cadence of your voice and looking at your audience. You have a most interesting topic - although it sounds rather broad. What is the relationship you are looking for between the topics you have mentioned? How are you going to hook them together. Find an anecdote if you can that makes the connection. Good luck.

PRE-PLAN your speech.\nDecide which aspect(s) of character are most important. (Honesty, courage, responsibility, leadership, loyalty, duty, respect, attitude, perseverance, my personal favorite... integrity...?) Using the trait(s) you selected, come up with a thesis statement. Your speech should center around this idea. Brainstorm at least three to five specific examples to support your statement. These may include any of the following:\nexamples from history, literature, or current events\nthe information you are given on the test\nexamples from your own personal experience\nDecide on your three strongest examples. These should be the ones you can explain in the most specific detail. In general, examples from your personal experience are easier to write about, but they are weaker in the eyes of the reader.\n\nWRITE your speech.\nStart with an introduction. Your introduction should explain what you're going to talk about in your speech, but DON'T say something like, "This speech is about..." or, "I'm going to tell you about..." Assume your audience is smart enough to figure this out. Your introduction should include some kind of HOOK--something to catch the reader's attention. There are many types of hooks. Try a question, a quotation, a definition, a statistic, a single word, an action, a description, or an unusual statement. The goal is to get your audience interested and to get them thinking.\nNext is the body of your speech. This is where you take those three strongest examples you brainstormed during your planning. Start with one you can explain very clearly.\nUse transitions in each of these paragraphs. Develop these paragraphs thoroughly. Keep the writing focused. Don't ever lose sight of your thesis statement! Everything in a paragraph should be connected, and it should all make sense together.\nGive lots of details. Poor example: "Integrity is a good quality for a person to have because it makes you a good person." Good example: "Integrity is a vital quality which allows a person to make decisions based on his or her understanding of what is 'right' and what is 'wrong.'" Poor example: "Martin Luther King, Jr., had lots of integrity because he was a good guy." Good example: "Martin Luther King, Jr., is a paradigm of integrity because he understood the importance of equality. He took it so seriously that he fought for equality, traveling around the country and speaking to innumerable people."\nUse strong words. Try to use words that will not make you sound intelligent, not supercilious.\nWrap up your speech with a competent conclusion. Watch out for these common mistakes:\nDON'T say the exact same thing you've said already.\nDON'T say something like, "Now you know about..." or, "I have just told you about..." And NEVER say "I hope you enjoyed listening to my speech!"\nUse a simple form in your conclusion. Restate your main thesis (in different words). You may want to generalize a little bit. Look for a common theme in all your examples which you can apply. You can end with another hook, if it seems appropriate.\nRemember, your conclusion is the LAST thing your audience will hear. It doesn't have to be pure genius, but it should leave a good last impression.\n\nREVIEW your speech.\nMake sure it makes sense. Check for grammatical errors; in particular, watch for sentence fragments and run-on sentences. Have a friend, family member, or teacher read it. Practice it several times by yourself and in front of a few people. Get some good feedback.\n\nGood luck! Feel free to contact me with specific questions.

depends what kind of paper it is supposed to be, and what your topic is. There's a good textbook you might want to look up called Fundamentals of Good Writing: A Handbook of Modern Rhetoric. We used it in my AP English and Composition last year. It has every type of paper and how to write it in there. Good luck!

Is this for a conference or for a classroom exercise? If for a conference - it depends on: (a) how much time you have and (b) what the purpose is - but you should spend a  little bit of time introducing and giving a foundation for your topic. Then create at least 3-5 questions that you can ask the people participating that will either lead them to look at your topic from different perspectives or get them engaged in a mini debate. If this is for some paper you are still writing (like a dissertation or thesis), you may also want to ask the participants for more ideas. If this is for a classroom . . . I have no ideas! :-)

I am sorry. Do you have to write an essay or speak in a debate? If it is a debate you should have POINTS that you will use, not written out speeches, or you will be lost if the other person makes a point that you did not write out in your speech.\n\nImran
