In the novel 'The Great Gatsby' contains a number of anecdotes. In this example, Daisy Buchanan tells a story about the head of the waiter. This anecdot is important because Buchanan's family keeps the story a secret about their head of service. The interpretation of this story and its importance has been discussed by readers for years. Here's the translation in Indonesian:
'I'll tell you a secret family,' he whispered enthusiastically. 'It's about the nose of the head of the waiter. Do you want to hear about the nose of the head of the waiter?... Well, he hasn't always been the head of the waiter; he used to be a silver pemodel for some people in New York who had silver equipment for two hundred people. He had to polish it from morning to night until finally it started to influence his nose --'
'Everything is getting worse,' Miss Baker suggested.
'Yes. Everything got worse until finally he had to give up his position.'
A scientist approached God, and said to Him, "Look, God, we don't care about it anymore. Right now, we can do all kinds of things that used to be considered magical. We can transplant organs, give a new life to a dying person, we can cure almost all diseases, and we can even clone animals. It won't take long, and we will be able to clone humans too. So, sorry, but you are outdated."
God listened patiently to the scientist and said, "I can see that you believe you don't need Me, and I understand. However, I love you, and I don't want to see you make a big mistake, so why don't we confirm it? I said we have to hold a human-made contest, just to make sure."
The scientist replied, "I will accept that challenge."
So, God said, "Okay, let's do it like I did in the past, with Adam and Eve." The scientist said, "No problem", and grabbed down to sort out a handful of soil.
"Wait a minute," said God. "You have to use YOUR OWN LAND."

"By using everything we've learned this semester, prove that this seat doesn't exist."
Then some students wrote more than 30 pages in one hour to try to refute the existence of the chair. However, one student said Ijt had been completed in less than a minute.
