My View on Invention
Drawing a comparison between modern life and ancient life, we cannot imagine what life will be like now without invention. Invention must be attached great importance to, as it is invention that contributes to the advancement of our society. There are several examples which can be cited to illustrate this concept. I can think of no better illustration than the following one. If Edison hadn't invented the light bulb, we would have lived a life as the blind in the night.
Given that invention plays such an essential role in our life, what can we do to cultivate this precious spirit? For one thing, it is advisable for the social media and publicity department to vigorously inform the public of the importance of invention. For another, the relevant authority should set up favorable regulations to encourage invention. For example, they can set up the practice of giving premiums or issuing patent certificate to inventors.
Finally, I want to use the following saying as our mutual encouragement, “Invention is the spirit of human being’s progress.” At no time should we underestimate the power of invention. Therefore, when an idea comes to your mind next time, just make your own invention.

My View on Innovation
I’m not sure if you have heard one of Steve Jobs’ famous remarks, “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower”, which stresses the significance of innovation. It goes without saying that innovation can promote the advancement of society and is the most essential quality for anyone who wants to achieve success. With innovation, any progress will be possible; however, once indulged in tradition, everything will remain stagnant.
Therefore, by some means or other we must come to know how to be innovative. On the one hand, from the standpoint of a nation, the government should encourage innovativeness and foster the mindset of continuous learning. Only by doing this can our nation achieve new breakthroughs in all walks of life. On the other hand, from the perspective of individuals, we should enrich our knowledge reserves and arm ourselves with up-to-date knowledge. Only when we are equipped with vast stores of knowledge can we think out different methods when solving a problem.
We should always commit it to our memory that innovation is of great significance to us all. In our daily life, we need to develop the habit of applying new thoughts and methods into practice.

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on creation. Your essay should include the importance of creation and measures to be taken to encourage creation. You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

The Significance of Creation
Throughout the ages, we have concluded a number of factors that contribute to success, among which is creation. Just as the saying goes, “There is no doubt that creation is the most important human resource of all.” Not only is creation the force driving economy and society to advance, but it is also essential to the development of individuals. Those who often come up with new ideas often turn out to be easy to achieve success while a man who always sticks to habit and experience can hardly create new things.
In terms of giving measures to encourage creation, I will list the following ones. On the one hand, the public are expected to realize the significance of creation, so the social media should play its due role in advocating the value of innovation and encouraging the public to cultivate awareness of creation. On the other hand, those who are equipped with creative thinking deserve some kind of praise, both materially and spiritually.
Creation has been a hot word for a long time and we cannot emphasize the importance of creation too much. Therefore, we should spare no effort to learn knowledge as much as possible to prepare ourselves to be creative people.
