The doctor wanted me to relax, so he had me listen to some music, and one of the songs was “Happy”. The song made me feel so much better that from then on I began to listen to music all the time.

Sample 1
Hello! My name is John. I feel honored to be here to give you a speech about the power of music. Just as someone said, “Where words fail, music speaks.” Music is a special language that everyone can understand.
Have you ever experienced a time when things looked dark and you were hopeless A year ago, I just went to a new school. Failing to keep up with other classmates, I was depressed and lonely. I had no friends and missed my parents so much. Ocassionally I heard a song named “dream it possible”, which gives me encouragement and comfort. Gradually I adapted to the new environment.
Music gives me happiness. It comforts me when I feel sad. It touches my heart and makes me relaxed. It helps me go through bad times and become stronger. It teaches me to cherish and feel grateful for what I have.
Music is so powerful. Whether you are happy or frustrated, listen to some music. you can never imagine how much it will influence you.
Thank you for listening!

How time flies! I' m Li Hua, president of Student Union. It's my great honor to be here, sharing this moment with our fellow friends from the Great Britain. It has been two weeks since you came here for the exchange program, which has benefited us all.
