Answer 1

Dear my diary,

Today it was the worst day of my life.You know what today I spent my whole day without taking a single drop of water. I know you want to know the reason for that.. so here it is - Firstly,Today because of some cutting in pipeline, our home was not supplied by water.Secondly, when we thought of calling a tanker for water at least so that we can drink they were not able to come as there is road building going on in our street. 

The day was to difficult to spent for all of us. But then too we managed to spend our day by eating more and more juicy fruits. At one point of time I was feeling that I now cannot live without water but then was soon asleep and the problem got sorted. In the night papa somehow managed to get us mineral water bottle as it was not available in our surrounding area due to lack of shops. In our neighbourhood their our only some shops like stationary, ice cream, repairing and some more like that only which doesnot have supply of water and moreover we are just new here so we donot have any bond or talk to each other and so we could not ask neighbours for water.

I just pray to god to not give any of my friend and even enemy these type of circumstance. And just because of this incident I got to know the real value of water and from now will save water for drinkng and living our life peacefully.

Different types of advances and their origin before the use of Europeans:

• Square Sails: According to the oldest archeological evidence, in 5000 BC Square sails are the first time used by Mesopotamians in Asia. Later it was used by the Europeans like the Greeks, the Romans, Germany, Portugal, and many others for trading purposes.
• Compass: The first compass was manufactured by the 'Han Dynasty' in China nearly 2000 years ago. It was named 'South Pointing Fish'. The first usage of the compass in Europe was recorded in Western Europe in the 12th century.
• Coin System: The first coin was minted by Lydians in 500 to 600 BC to pay armies which are of European origin.
• Gun Powder: Tang Dynasty in China was the first people to invent a chemical mixture of Gun Powder in the 9th Century. Later Song Dynasty of China used it for the first time in the 11th Century. Hence, Europeans borrowed Gun Powder from China.
• Capitalism: An American Initiative in1948 after World War II was enacted to provide foreign aid to European Countries especially Western Europe in the name of the Marshall Plan ( ERP- Europe Recovery Plan officially called ).

Therefore, Europeans borrowed Compass and Gun Powder from China.
