The task one illustrates the process of how to knee perfect dough to bake a sizzling Italian pizza. This whole process consists on the seven steps. Firstly all the ingredients; floor, water, salt and dry yeast are putted in a mixer, by following the exact measurements. After running the mixer on a low speed for almost two minutes, its speed accelerated to medium for more five minutes. As the quality of pizza dough depends upon the how perfectly it has been mixed or kneed, so it required running the mixer on a slow mode for another two minutes. After mixing it for overall 9-10 minutes, it is putted on rest for minimum two hours. If after this period of time, the dough is doubled in size, it means this dough is ready for the next step. Later the dough is kneed with hands to remove all air bubbles. It is stretched on the board so that it can be cut into three equal pieces.

Task 1
The picture here guides us to prepare a perfect dough for a pizza. The process is very simple and explained in the picture with 7 easy steps. Firstly, the top for pictorial representation helps us understand the ingredients. It says (picture) we need to take 4 cups weighing 500 grams of all-purpose flour in a stand mixer bowl. We have to pour one and half cups of water to it along with 2 tablespoons of salt and half tablespoon of dry active yeast to the stand mixer. Make sure to water content should be 325 grams as per the represented in picture.

Now, we have successfully prepared the mix of ingredients in the stand mixer bowl which was our 1st step. Next for step 2 and 3, we start the mixer and run it for 2 minutes on a slow speed and then we accelerate the speed up to medium for 5 minutes. After completing this, for step 4, we simply lower the speed back to the slow for the last 2 minutes to have the dough ready to rest. The picture represents for the step 5, we have to take out the dough from the stand mixer and keep it aside for 2 hours to rest and allow it to rise to the size of its double.

Now step 6 is a crucial step for our perfect dough, we have to work with the dough with hands to remove all the air bubbles which a there due to the raise in the dough. Once done with beating the dough, cut it into 3 equal pieces for 275 grams each for the pizza.

Task 2

The statement here, in my opinion, is not agreeable as sports is its own benefits whether played alone or in a team both. This statement may question the persons talent, there should not be a any difference or judgements passed on sports persons talent.

The current number and type of sports played have increased by a huge number. These sports include both individually played games and team games as well. I will like to speak upon team games first, people are huge fan of team games and respect the play and their players together. In a team game all the efforts of the team players must be acknowledged as it is played. A team game can be represented as a symbol of unity and if a team doesn't play with each other unitedly then there are high number of chances of losing the game. A team sports teaches humans to stay together, respect and stay as a one team, with these virtues they all play for the team and for their nations. Players of the team are accounted with their own talent but with the team. Speaking of individual games, these players are also praised and loved by the people across the nation because of their talent, but these players also represent their nation which has to be understood by the people.

The only reason such a statement is passed over sports faternity is because they all are human at a individual level and humans make mistake. In a team, there are chances one player might have a problem with another player and such an issue might affect they unity as a team and spoil the game. There are chances a player may be blamed for the failure of not getting along with the team or have fear of not being recognized. Such fear of blame or being known, may question the sportsmanship of a sports person, and compel people to choose a individual sport. But the things which has to be understood by the people is that sports person should be defined by their talents. It's not always the inter-human relationship issue, people in individual games are there because of their true talent not because they choose to play alone in order to be away from such inter-personal issue.

All in all, sports are a place where people can present their countries proudly being in a team or an individual. Sportsmanship is always in playing for the nation and then for themselves.

Sport is the beneficial part of our life to remain healthy and fit. Now a days people play many kinds of sport like horse riding, soccer and cricket which makes human body active. Many people think that is it good to play games which are played in groups. However, some please believes that the single game to play. In my opinion, playing single game is better as one-man effort is counted.
First of all, the single game is good for both heath and the player as if there will be any mistake made by the man can count his own loss. A person only has to put all of the effort on his body in order to win the game. Furthermore, swimming is that sport in which all of the man body part moves and his success is on his health. For example, in the previous common wealth game Canadian man heath was good his body movement is that good that he become first.
On the other hand, in group games each of the participant has his own role to handle the game and to compete his opponent like in football. In addition to this, one wrong move of the member of the team can get his team out of the game. For example, the bad move of goal keeper and all the defenders result in the loss of the Brazil team in Fifa world cup.
To conclude with that the single sport is better as compere to the team as in team game on wrong move of a person can make the whole team lose the game.

While some sports are typically played in teams, others are usually done by individuals. There are, of course, benefits to both team sports and individual ones, and this essay will explore both, before coming to the conclusion that team sports are slightly more beneficial.

When most people think of sports, they probably first imagine some kind of team sport, like football, basketball, or rugby. These are by far the most popular and so we often watch them on TV or play them with our friends. But they are not merely fun to play and to watch; in fact, they also help us to develop important life skills. Especially for children, playing team sports is an invaluable way to develop interpersonal skills. Working together with teammates helps them to relate to others better, as they will be able to communicate well and delegate responsibilities. These are skills that will serve them well in their professional and private lives as teenagers and then adults.

While players of individual sports will not gain these benefits, they will nonetheless get some important perks from their chosen sport. In sports like golf and long-distance running, people learn valuable lessons. They will learn determination and self-reliance, as well as improving their ability to concentrate over long, often lonely, periods of time. Although the ability to work as a team is considered one of the most valuable talents in business these days, independence and self-motivation will always be useful life-skills to possess.

In conclusion, all sports offer different benefits; however, sports that are played in teams are probably more useful than those done by individuals because the benefits which they provide us are slightly more valued in the wider world.
