This is a compilation of speeches made in a Sophomore English class for non English majors in a Chinese University. These Students were asked to research a world event that had an impact on them either directly or emotionally. They were only given 1.5 minutes to speak and were to write it in advance for correction and grade. They have been courageous in speaking here and I hope that you the reader will be not only somewhat surprised at what you read but also appreciative of their candid and heart felt opinions. They were all asked the day of the speech if they would like to be published anonymously and nearly all agreed. Those who asked not to be published were not included in the book. Please feel free to comment or give your review of this book for them to read as I know they would love to hear what you the readers have to say. Thank you.
