Everyone is asleep now, and I suck at English as you can see, I'm a science/maths guy so I can't help you, you will probably have to wait till like 9am and a BOSer will help you for sure.
Try to write the speech yourself and post it here so it would be easier for people to help you by giving you feedback.
BTW: year 11 doesn't count towards anything what so ever, so just write a decent speech of reasonable length and you will be fine, speeches are more about how you present them rather than the content, language, etc...

I can't really help u since I havent read and of the texts and I also don't know the questions.

But you should try to involve the audience. So start of with something like
"imagine a world where ..... Is paramount.... Have you ever experienced feeling of.... Just because of...."
you want to stand out, don't be cliche and start off like "good morning ladies and gentlemen, the purpose. Of my speech today....". remember to keep rendering to the audience. Use the words you and I, ask rhetorical questions throughout the speech e.g. "would it be say to say that...... Just because......?"

Hope that helped
