8. Reason/ Elaboration
Reason
Pizza is the greatest invention ever because it
has fueled the imagination of students, artists,
and creators since the Middle Ages. When I was
working on a paper on Of Mice and Men for my
10th grade English class, I needed 4 slices of a
large pepperoni and mushroom pie to get
through to the conclusion.
Elaboration
9. Abstract reasoning
Pizza is about "eedom. The ability to choose
whatever toppings--whether it’s a straight-up
sausage and olives or a wild anchovies and
gouda--tells us everything we need to know
about being a true American.
10. Description
When I look at pizza, I look at perfection.
The bubbly cheese, the cracker-y crust, the
savory sauce--all combine to create a work of
art.
11. Narrative
Once when I was upset after getting a D in my 10th
grade Biology class, my parents surprised me with a trip
to Tutta Bella. I resisted. I was determined not to have
fun even as we entered the doors and sat down in view
of the wood-fired ovens. Even when we ordered 3
pizzas, including a prosciutto and olive pizza that
normally would have driven me crazy, I still pretended
to sulk. But when the pizza came, when I was
confronted with slice after slice of some of the most
delicious pizza ever made, my resistance crumbled and
smiled a huge smile and gobbled down pizza until I was
sick.
12. Process or Procedure
I love to make pizza more than I like to breathe. The
tactile feel of mixing the dough with my hands never
fails to make me realize that life is good. The skipping
whir of the emersion blender results in a savory, delicious
sauce. And, finally, the satisfying schrump sound of the
pizza sliding off of the peel and into the oven reminds
me of why I go to all of this trouble.
