Any individual who is deprived of earning a living and faces difficulty in getting a paid job is known as unemployed and the condition is termed as unemployment. With India being a highly populated country, unemployment has always been a major problem in our country. And this problem has been increasing at a major rate.

 

Here, we have provided a long speech as well as a short unemployment speech in English for the students of all categories. Students can easily refer to our speech on unemployment for any exam preparation and can also gather information on this topic to prepare their own speech.

 

There is also a 10 Lines Speech provided by us especially for the students of Class 1 and Class 2.

 

Long Speech on Unemployment

This long speech on unemployment has been provided as a reference for the students of Class 7 To Class 12 for their exam preparation. 

 

Warm greetings to everyone! I firstly appreciate everyone who has gathered here to discuss the problem of unemployment. I am thankful enough for providing me with an opportunity to deliver a speech on unemployment.

 

Unemployment has become a major concern among the people of India today. With the increasing population, the job sectors fail to provide a full-time job to all the people. This, as a result, has increased the rate of unemployment in our country. Thus, unemployment can be defined as the condition where an individual is deprived of a paid job or self-employment and is unable to find a suitable job for employment. 

 

The fear of unemployment has caused a level of depression and mental stress on the youth today. In spite of getting a degree and having the highest qualifications, they still have to go through the process of unemployment. Many individuals, being the sole bread earner of the family, struggle day and night to earn a living. Unemployment not only refers to being jobless, but it also refers to the state where an individual is being underpaid as per their experience and qualifications. Several individuals are unsatisfied with the jobs they are in and are sticking to their jobs due to unemployment problems. 

 

Implementation of various government programs to improve the practical skills of the students must be done in every school and college. Although the government of India has introduced several employment schemes to offer jobs to the unemployed, many more steps must be taken to reduce the unemployment rate in our country. People must be made aware of self-employment and proper fundings for these government programs and projects must be implemented by the government.

 

Lastly, I would like to thank all of you for your patience and for coming here to discuss this issue. 

 

Short Speech on Unemployment in English

Given below is a short unemployment speech in English for the students of Class 3 to Class 6. 

 

Greetings everyone! Today I am here to deliver a speech on the topic of unemployment.

 

With the fast-growing industries and economic system, our country India still lags behind in the field of employment. In spite of having a higher degree and qualification, many people have to suffer through the process of unemployment. The main reason behind this major issue is the growing population and demand for a full-time job. Many citizens of the country are still deprived of paid jobs and are struggling to earn a living. This has also eventually led to mental pressures and depression among the youth. Although there has been an increase in the literacy rate of the people that has also increased the demand for new jobs. 

 

It is high time that the government should take up initiatives to provide employment to the people. There are several government programs and schemes that have been introduced by the Prime Minister to help the unemployed to get a paid job. New training programs should be introduced in schools and colleges for the better development of the students. People should be made familiar with the self-employment scheme and initiatives must be implemented by the government for funding these programs.

 

Lastly, I would like to end my speech by saying that unemployment has become a major problem in India today and necessary steps must be taken to reduce the unemployment rate.

Brief on Winter Season

Winter season in India refers to the period between November and February when the northern hemisphere is inclined away from the sun and hence sun rays have to travel a longer distance to reach the surface of the earth. The winter season is a magical time as the weather gets cooler and people, in general, enjoy the weather around them. As the mercury drops, people take out their warm clothes and get together in small gatherings lighting fireplaces and enjoying small talk around them.

The vegetables available in the winter season are also fresh and taste better than the ones available during summer. People instead of avoiding the sun start waiting for the sun and enjoying its warmth.

The Importance of Winter Season

Even from the view of our culture, the winter season holds a special place. The winter season is generally the time when Monsoon has retreated, the water sources are full and the weather is very suitable for roaming around. People like to celebrate this weather along with their families and also enjoy festivities like Christmas and New Year. Many people take vacations during this time and go to visit tourist destinations like Shimla, Manali, and Leh, etc. Many parts of our country even witness snowfall and overall the weather turns delightful. However, there are various concerns that come with the winter season like Pollution. Delhi has been witnessing a sharp rise in the pollution levels during the winter season which is mainly due to the depression columns formed around the area Delhi is geographically situated in. These challenges should be dealt with so that people can cherish the mild atmosphere and enjoy it the most during the winter season.

Challenges People Face in this Season:

The season is good but not for everyone. The season creates a huge problem for all the homeless people, stray animals, and people who live in the hilly areas. In some parts of our country (especially the mountain regions), daily snowfall or rain can be witnessed during this time. It creates challenges for them to survive as the roads get blocked due to snowfall or heavy fog. That’s why they preserve their winter food throughout the year. So that they do not have to worry about it. However, life gets truly difficult in a few European countries as they face massive snowfall or blizzards during winter. 

Conclusion

Different countries face the winter season in different ways. It may be harsh or not. One needs to be prepared well for the same.

Definition: Words or phrases that are used to introduce an idea relating to what has been said in the preceding sentence or sentences are called sentence connectors or conjunctions. They always refer to an idea expressed already. Thus, they establish a logical connection between two ideas.  A sentence connector without a preceding sentence or phrase becomes meaningless.

Example: Hari and Rakesh are good players. (Note: and is the word that is connecting two words)

Conjunctions join sentences together and often make them more compact; thus, instead of writing a long sentence ‘Hari is a good player and Rakesh is a good player’, we write the same in a short and more meaningful way, i.e. ‘Hari and Rakesh are good players’

Read the following sentences:

1. Four and three make seven.

2. Raj went to school but Aditya stayed at home.

3. We can read as well as write.

4. I am very strong though I am old.

In the above sentences the words in italics and, but, as well as, though join words together. These words are called Conjunctions.

⇒ Sometimes, however, the Conjunction and joins words only. For example, 

Four and three make seven.

Raj and Aditya are brothers.

Raj and Aditya came home together.

Such sentences cannot be resolved in two sentences.

We need to use Conjunctions very carefully as they are quite similar to Relative Pronouns, Relative Adverbs and Prepositions, which are also connecting words. 

 Relative Pronouns: who, whose, whom, which, that.

 Relative Adverbs: when, where, why, how.

 Prepositions: in, at, to, on, with, etc. 

I know the boy who admires you. ‘Who’ is a Relative Pronoun. It joins two sentences: ‘I know the boy’ and ‘the boy admires you.’ It refers to the noun boy.

I know the house where the boy lives. ‘Where’ is a Relative Adverb. It joins two sentences: ‘I know the house’ and ‘In that house, the boy lives’. It does the work of modifying the verb ‘lives’.

Take this and give that. And is a conjunction and simply joins the two parts of the sentence; it does not do other work like a Relative Pronoun and Relative Adverb.  

Observe that a Preposition also joins two words but it does more; it governs a noun or a pronoun as,

She sat beside Radha. She stood behind me. 

Correlative Conjunctions

Correlative Conjunctions are the conjunction words that connect equal sentence elements together (like two nouns) and are always composed of two words. 

Either – or He is either a good singer or an excellent singer. 

Neither – nor He draws neither neatly nor properly.

Both – and We both love and respect her.

Whether – or I have to go whether I like it or not. 

Not only – but also The boy is not only very healthy but also very happy. 

When Correlative conjunctions join two sentences, the structure after each of the correlated words should be the same.

Compound Conjunctions

Some compound expressions or phrases can be used as Conjunctions; these are called Compound Conjunctions.

In order that.   The news was published in order that all students might know.

Provided that. I will rent you the flat provided that you do not cook meat.

On condition that. I will forgive you on the condition that you do not repeat this mistake.

As soon as. He took off his coat as soon as he returned home. 

Classes of Conjunction

Conjunctions are divided into two classes according to their functions:

1. Coordinative Conjunctions

2. Subordinative Conjunctions

A Coordinative Conjunction joins together words, phrases or clauses of equal rank or importance. 

Ex: Molly sang and Polly danced. The sentence contains two independent statements or two statements of equal rank or importance and none is dependent on the other for its meaning. So and in the sentence does the work of a Coordinative Conjunction. The important Coordinating Conjunctions are: and, but, for, or, nor, also, either….or, neither….nor.

Coordinating Conjunctions are of four kinds:

a. Cumulatives or Copulatives are those that merely add or connect one sentence or word to another.

Ex: He is guilty and his sister also.

Mohan as well as you are successful.

b. Adversatives are those, which express the contrast between two sentences.

Ex: He is wise but his brother is foolish. 

He was all right; only he was tired.

c. Disjunctives or Alternatives are those, which express a choice between two statements. 

Ex: He is either a fool or a rogue.

Walk fast else you will not overtake him.

d. Illatives are those by which one statement or fact is proved or inferred from another.

Ex: Something certainly fell in for I heard a splash. 

Work Hard, for no one can succeed without hard work.

Subordinative Conjunctions joins a clause to another clause where one clause (subordinate clause) is dependent on another clause (principal clause) for its full meaning.

Ex: He said that he was ill. In this sentence, ‘That he was ill’ depends on ‘He said’ for its full meaning. Independently ‘That he was ill’ has no sense.

The important Subordinative Conjunctions are: After, before, when, where, why, how, till, unless, etc.

Subordinative Conjunctions are classified according to their meanings, as follows:

a. Time: after, before, since, as soon as, while, until, as, so long as, if, whether, on condition.

Ex: I would die before I lied.

I returned home after he had gone.

b. Purpose: in order that, lest, so that, that.

Ex: We eat so that we may live.

He held my hand lest I could fall. 

c. Cause: because, since, as.

Ex: Since you wished it, it shall be done.

He may enter, as he is a friend.

d. Condition: provided or provided that, supposing, unless, as, if whether, on condition.

Ex: Balu will go if Vinay goes.

Grievances cannot be redressed unless they are known.

e. Result or Effect: so…that

Ex: He was so tired that he could hardly stand.

f. Comparison: than, no less than, as…as, as much as.

Ex: He is stronger than Hari.

g. Manner: as, so far as, according to, as if.

Ex: According to Ram, Hari is not coming to school.

h. Concession or Contrast: though, although, however, notwithstanding, as, even if, whatever, whichever.

Ex: A book is a book, although there is nothing in it.
