Creativity Is the Mother of Invention By Sha Azam Siddiqui

The world in which we live in This beautiful place which we belong to It’s so beautiful and so colorful But we always lack to see beauty of it and we continue to live the life which is so regretful This is the one life we have We have to live it to the fullest Not with happenings or desires of others But with the intention which truly inspires us. We have to live this life We have to create this life

This life is ours and only ours We need to realize this first It’s said that creativity is the mother of invention But it depends solely on individual intention If we are clear with our own destination It doesn’t matter then how much we get rejection Live this life as if you were the King Spend the luxuries as if you were the Queen It all starts with the only Intention If we just keep on thinking Then there is no end for this perspiration.

Creativity is the key to a bright future. We live in a     1     world. But we always tend to ignore the beauty of it and thus have many regrets in our lives. We only live     2    , so we have to live a fullest one. This life is ours, so we have to live and     3     it. We need to realize this first. Creativity is the mother of invention that depends on individual intention. If we have     4    , then the rejections we get would not be a problem. Bear this only intention in our mind and keep on thinking, and there will be     5     for this perspiration.

There are not many nations that can say their national dish has become international.     1     Both are famous all over the world, and both have made the history of Italian food. People have been eating pizza, in one form or another, for centuries. They eat it everywhere — at home, in restaurants, or on street comers.

The word “pizza” came from the Latin word “pinsa” meaning flatbread. Long ago, pieces of flatbread, topped with mushrooms and herbs (香料), were a simple and tasty meal. They were mostly for those who didn’t have enough money to buy plates, or who were on the go. In the 18th century, Naples, in southern Italy, had become one of the largest cities in Europe, and it was growing fast. Lots of city people were poor and they were always rushing around to look for work.     2     Pizzas were cut to meet the customers’needs. They were inexpensive, used easy-to-find ingredients (原料), and could be made with plenty of flavor.

It was in America that pizza found its second home.     3     Soon, pizza spread across the country with the rapid development of the city. It was increasingly considered as a fast, funny food. People might like New York-style thin pizza, or Chicago deep-dish thick pizza. Some want extra cheese on their pizzas while others only like vegetables. The secret is, almost everyone likes pizzas.

C. They needed food that was cheap and easy to eat.
D. In 1905, the first pizzeria, Lombardi’s, was opened in New York City.

8 . I always had a nice cup of tea every morning in my country in Indonesia.     1     When I arrived in the early morning for the first time at Sydney airport, the first thing that I looked for was a coffee shop.     2     I jumped into the queue. Then a very friendly girl asked me if she could help me. I said that I would like to have a cup of tea. Then she asked me, “Would you like black or white tea?” I thought she was making a morning joke with me. So I said, “Red tea, please.” With a very unfriendly face she asked me again, “Black or white tea, please?”     3     I didn't know what actually black or white tea was. I only knew that having tea is usually with or without sugar.

    4     I saw a lady drinking tea with milk in it. Then I asked her, “Can I say that you are having a white tea?” She smiled and said, “Yes, you can.” At that moment, I understood that black tea is no milk added and white tea is with milk. How big is the difference of having tea between Indonesian and Australian people!
