5. Read the following two speeches:

a) The Principal’s speech:

Good morning, everyone!
    We have with us today Dr. Adity Goswami. We have invited her to talk to you students on drugs abuse. Give her a round of applause (everyone claps). Now, I request Dr. Goswami to deliver her speech.

b) Dr. Adity Goswami’s speech:

Respected Principal, staff and students.
    I must thank the principal of the school for inviting me to speak to you on such an important topic. Students! Do you know what a drug is ?  You must have seen signs with the word ‘Drug Store’. A drug store is another word for a pharmacy. So ‘drug’ means ‘medicine’.  Doctors prescribe drugs for us to buy from a drug store. They also advise us on the quantity of medicine we have to use. Many people use pain killers, high blood pressure pills, sleeping tablets and so on.  If they use more than what doctors prescribe, they are using the drug wrongly.  Abuse means the wrong use of something. Improper use of drugs is called ‘Drug abuse’.  
    There are some types of drugs that doctors don’t prescribe. These are sold illegally at very high prices.  They cause great harm to us.  We must not use them.  Let me tell you what happens when someone uses illegal drugs.
