Corrections

My hometown has a serene mountain lake.

I got a tepid response from my mom.

War has resulted in the collapse of many industries in this country.

Teachers should enlighten children on the origination of human beings.

"Teachers", plural, in general. Also perfectly fine is "A teacher should..." "origin" instead of "origination" because the second refers to the generalized noun version of "origin" and is a bit overboard (usage).

Jack got a minor ailment.

Not technically incorrect, just a bit strange to pair the very casual "got" with the upper-level "ailment." More approriate here would be: "contracted", "came down with", or simply "has".

The silence was punctuated by laughter.

Science always intrigues the curiosity of children.

It strikes me that I need to find a new way to improve my English.

wWe need to pit our country against other countries.

I'm not sure how you would pit an entire country against another... You don't just mean to compare favorably to, do you? Pit is a bit more pugilistic than that--more likely used to describe a fight. So pitting your sons against each other by offering only one dessert, for example.

Feedback

Nicely done! Appreciated the humor (I hope it was meant) :)
