objective
Write a persuasive speech of about 150 words addressed to senior students, urging them to volunteer for the upcoming community clean‑up. In your speech you must consider three constraints: a limited budget, the need for diverse participation, and the short time available for planning. Include an opening hook, three distinct arguments that address the constraints, and a concluding call to action.
Answer Options
A.
Hey seniors! Picture a massive clean‑up that costs a fortune and requires months of preparation. First, we could allocate a huge budget for new equipment, ignoring the modest funds available. Second, we could limit participation to senior athletes only, excluding other groups. Third, we could extend planning over several weeks, contradicting the short‑time constraint. Let's ignore the real limits and aim for an unrealistic project—sign up if you love grand ideas.
B.
Good afternoon, seniors! Did you know that a single hour of cleaning won't change anything, but it will give you a chance to skip classes? First, the budget is so tight we should ask the school to fund a professional crew instead of using volunteers. Second, diversity isn't necessary; only the science club should lead, because they know best. Third, the planning time is too short, so we should cancel the event and focus on exams. Join us in supporting the decision to postpone the clean‑up.
C.
Hello seniors! Imagine a weekend where we simply gather and chat without any real impact. First, we could spend the limited budget on fancy snacks instead of supplies—because feeling good is more important than results. Second, we don't need diverse participants; a small group of friends can handle everything, keeping things simple. Third, with only a week to plan, we can postpone the clean‑up until next semester, avoiding any rush. So, enjoy the break and think about maybe joining later when you have more time.
Correct Answer
D.
Good morning, seniors! Did you know that a single afternoon of clean‑up can transform our neighbourhood and boost our school's reputation? First, with a modest budget we can rely on recycled bags, community donations and the volunteers' own tools—meaning every naira you spend goes straight to visible results. Second, a clean‑up thrives on diversity; students from science, art and sport bring unique ideas, turning a simple task into a vibrant learning experience for all. Third, even with only a week to plan, your energy and teamwork can achieve what months of bureaucracy cannot—quick, tangible change that everyone will notice. So, let's seize this chance: sign up today, bring a friend, and together we'll make our streets shine. Your effort today builds a cleaner, stronger community tomorrow.
