Question 10 [7 marks]

Sample Script (approx. 200 words):

"Salam sejahtera kepada guru-guru dan rakan-rakan sekalian. Hari ini, saya ingin berkongsi tentang topik 'Keutamaan Membaca Buku'.

Tahukah anda, menurut kajian, membaca 20 minit sehari boleh mengekspos kita kepada lebih 1.8 juta perkataan setahun? Itu adalah kuasa membaca.

Pertama, membaca meluaskan pengetahuan dan kosa kata kita. Buku-buku non-fiksi seperti ensiklopedia, biografi, dan artikel sains memberi maklumat baru yang tidak kita pelajari di kelas. Selain itu, kita belajar perkataan-perkataan sukar dan frasa baru yang memperkaya penulisan dan pertuturan kita.

Kedua, membaca cerita fiksi meningkatkan imejinasi dan kreativiti. Apabila kita membaca novel petualangan atau fantasi, fikiran kita membina imej, watak, dan dunia yang tidak wujud. Ini melatih otak kita untuk berfikir kritis dan kreatif — ilmu pelita hidup.

Ketiga, membaca menenteramkan fikiran dan mengurangkan tekanan. Membaca buku fizikal sebelum tidur menenangkan otak berbanding cahaya biru telefon pintar. Kajian menunjukkan ia memperbaiki kualiti tidur dan mengurangkan kebimbangan.

Akhirnya, kesimpulannya, membaca bukan sekadar hobi, tapi pelaburan untuk masa depan. Saya mengalu-alukan semua rakan sebaya: mulakan hari ini, bawa satu buku ke kelas, dan baca 15 minit sebelum tidur. Terima kasih."
