【正确答案】A Proposal for the Speech Contest
Dear Sir or Madam,
In the current global context, the ability to tell Chinese stories in English is increasingly important. Therefore, as a junior, I propose that a college-wide English speech contest with the topic of "Chinese Wisdom" should be held.
The suggested details are as follows. First of all, undergraduates are eligible for the contest and graduates, if necessary, should be organized in a different group. Next, two sessions should be included in the contest: the 3-minute prepared speech and a 2-minute impromptu speech based on the topic assigned right after the prepared speech. Such an arrangement is to check not only the content, pronunciation, eloquence, but also the response capacity of the contestants. Finally, it is of great importance to have a panel from the ESL(English as Second Language) faculty as judges and among all contestants, six are awarded, with one champion, one first runner-up, one second runner-up and three honorable mentions.
I’m looking forward to the activity and sincerely hope that my proposal will be adopted.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
