A Proposal for a Speech Contest
I am so glad to hear that a speech contest with the purpose of enriching college students’ life would be held in our school next month. As a member of Student Union, I would like to give some advice to make the activity go more smoothly.
Firstly, we could choose a suitable speech subject, such as the employment prospect, the management of free time or something related to students’ life, because it may contribute to the attraction of more students. Secondly, the contest could last for about 2-3 hours and we could invite Professor Zhang as the judge to give comments to each contestant. Lastly, as for the selection of contestants, I suppose every student in our school could submit an application but we should have an interview in the first round and choose the final 10 competitors.
I hope the suggestions above would be useful and practical for you. For any question on the proposal, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

关于演讲比赛的提案
听闻下个月我们学校将举办一场旨在丰富大学生生活的演讲比赛，我很高兴。作为学生会的一员，我想为活动的顺利举行提供一些建议。
首先，我们可以选择一个合适的演讲主题，如就业前景、自由时间的管理或一些与学生生活相关的话题，因为它可能有助于吸引更多的学生。第二，比赛将持续约2-3小时，我们可以邀请张教授担任评委，对每位参赛者进行点评。最后，至于参赛者的选拔，我想我们学校的每个学生都可以提交申请，但我们应该进行第一轮面试，确定最后10名参赛者。
我希望以上建议对您有用且实用。如对该提案有任何疑问，请随时联系我。
