Answer:

IMPORTANCE OF CIVIC SENSE Dear Friends and Faculty, I, Shoma/Sonu of class XII-C, wish all of you a very good Morning. I am privileged to present my views on the importance of civic sense with you today. How often have we seen people spitting on the roadside? How often have we seen people standing, watching someone else in pain? How many of us leave the lights on when we don?t really need it? We see these things on a daily basis. We curse the people who do these things but then we do it ourselves too. We say to ourselves, ?Why should I stop when no one else is?? We forget that every single person?s actions matter. We live in a time where we stand at the edge of irreversible changes. In such a time, it becomes more important than ever that we hold on to our civic sense. If we continue to live as individuals rather than a society on this planet, just functioning based on rules that ensure our mere survival, then there will come a time when the society will never be the same. Knowing this, it becomes even more important to emphasize the importance that civic sense can have in our very lives. It is high time that we all start to live with civic sense and social mannerism for a cleaner and healthier environment. This will help us change the society at the earliest. Thank you.

MONEY IS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS IN TODAY?S LIFE Honourable judges, teachers and my worthy opponents, today, I am glad to receive this opportunity to present to you my side for the argument ?Money is the only thing that matters in today?s life?. In today?s society, having money can be the difference between life and death. It has become common knowledge to know that one can get anywhere if the right people are on your side. The way our society is built, the value placed on money and having more of it has lead to the rise of Billionaires with so much wealth that they no longer are in touch with how the common man survives and in the same place, we have people who cannot access basic necessities because of the lack of funds. This disparity does not reduce as time goes on, it grows. This is because access to good education, high-paying jobs and better accommodations are available only to those who have the money to afford it. While it is easy to say that the younger generations place less importance on money, it is only those with money that can say this. Without money, one cannot get anywhere in today?s society. At the end of the day, one can?t help but agree that money moves the world around.
