Read the ballad out loud. Show the ballad to others. Set the ballad to music.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Once you have completed a draft of the ballad, read it aloud to yourself. Listen for rhyme, repetition, and rhythm. Make sure the ballad tells a story in a clear, concise way. Notice any awkward or long winded lines. Adjust them so they are easy to follow and understand. You should also read the ballad out loud to catch any spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors. Get friends, peers, or family members to read the ballad. Ask them if they find the ballad engaging and easy to follow. Find out if the ballad sounds rhythmic and lyrical. Be open to constructive feedback from others as it will only improve your ballad. Traditionally, ballads are spoken or sung aloud to music. You may set the ballad to instrumental music that has already been recorded, and has a rhythm that suits the piece. Or you may play acoustic guitar as you read the ballad aloud, or try to sing it aloud. You can also try using string instruments like a cello, a harp, or a violin to accompany the ballad.


Read the car seat instructions before installing. Ensure that the seat is held firmly in place with the seat belt. Check the seat straps to make sure they are positioned correctly. Test whether you can easily buckle and unbuckle the child from their seat. Learn how to change the position of the car seat. Check the history of the car seat.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Make sure that you read the instructions that come with the car seat thoroughly before you attempt to install the seat. This will help you to understand the correct installation method and save you time.  If you cannot follow the instructions or they seem too complicated, ask a friend, family member or even a salesperson at the place where you bought the seat to install the car seat for you. Do not risk installing the car seat incorrectly, as this could put your child's life at risk in the case of an accident Most car seats are secured into the correct position using the car's own seatbelt. The seatbelt usually needs to pass through the base of the seat in a specific way. When installing the car seat, make sure the belt follows the correct path. If it is positioned correctly, you should not be able to move the seat more than an inch in any direction. Check to see whether the car seat's own straps are routed through the right holes, in the right order and in the right direction. If not, there should be diagrams in the instructions to show you how to set them up. Test the position of the straps by placing your child into the seat and looking for the following:  Make sure the straps are tight, but not so tight that they are digging in or causing the child to be hunched over. You should be able to adjust the tightness of the straps easily. Make sure that the straps follow the correct path, over the child's shoulders and between his or her legs. Make sure that the shoulder straps go across the child's chest and not across his or her neck. Try buckling and unbuckling the child several times until you get the hang if it. This is important, in case you need to remove the child from the seat in a hurry.  However, it's important that the seat is not so easy to unbuckle that the child can do it themselves. This could be very dangerous if the child were to unbuckle themselves while the car was in motion. Opt for car seats that have two-piece retainer clips, as these are harder to release and your child will not be able...


Read the care instructions for your couch on a tag. Blot up any recent spills. Vacuum the couch if there's any loose debris. Use water and dish soap on any stains if your fabric can handle water. Break up stains with a steam cleaner if you have one. Blot stains with vinegar or alcohol if your couch can't handle water. Try baby wipes for spills on microfiber couches. Repeat the process as needed.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Find a cushion with a tag. The tag should tell you what kind of solvent you can use on the couch. For instance, if it's machine washable, you can use water. However, if it's not, you may need to use something else, like alcohol or vinegar.  If your tag has a "W" you on it, you can clean it with water. If it has an "S," use something like vinegar, rubbing alcohol, or a commercial dry cleaning agent. If it has "S-W," you can use either one. A few might have the code "X," which means vacuuming and professional cleaning only.  If your couch doesn't have a tag, try cleaners in an inconspicuous place on the couch first. Whatever kind of couch you have, it's important to get spills up right away. Use a clean cloth to dab at the spill until you've picked up as much of the spill as you can. Crumbs and other debris sometimes fall into your couch. If you leave them on the couch, they might get crushed into the fabric when you go to spot clean it.  Use your furniture attachment on your big vacuum cleaner or a hand vacuum cleaner to clean the couch. Remove the cushions to get the crumbs underneath, as well. Vacuuming will also help with pet hair! Mix a few drops of dish soap with a cup of cool water. Dip a sponge in the mixture and wring it out. Dab at the stain or spill with the sponge for a few minutes until it's completely lifted.  Wash out the sponge and dab at the stain with just water. Don't rub the stain, as you could spread it around. Only use a steam cleaner if the fabric can be cleaned with water. Run the steamer over the stain to help loosen it up for cleaning. You can also use the steam setting on your iron if you prefer. Just don't get the iron too close, especially if you're not sure how much heat the fabric can take. If your couch has a "S" on the tag, you may be able to use these cleaners instead. Dip a cloth in either vinegar or alcohol and then dab at the stain until it disappears. Let the solution dry on the fabric.  Always test the product on a inconspicuous place first. Use a clear alcohol, like vodka...


Read the check amount. Make sure the written amount matches up with the numerical amount. See if the check includes a memo.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The check amount appears twice on the check, once in words and once in digits. First, read the amount as written in words.  Towards the center of a check, there should be a line below the recipient's name with a numerical amount written out in words. The payor writes the amount a check is for to make sure there's no confusion at the bank. They also include the amount of change, if any, as a fraction.  For example, say the check is for $400.00. In the line, the payor would write, "Four hundred dollars and No/100." Once you've read the amount the check is for, make sure this matches up with the numbers written on the check. Just to the right of where the amount is written out, there will be a small box with a currency sign next to it. The recipient will have written the amount the check is worth, in numerals, in this box. Returning to the above example, this box should contain the numbers "$400.00." If the two amounts are not the same, the amount written out in words is the amount that will be honored. For example, if the amount written out is "Four hundred dollars and No/100" and the amount in digits is "$400.99," the check will be redeemed for $400 in cash(the amount written out in words). Some checks include memos. These can be found on a line on the bottom left corner of a check. The memo usually includes information on why the check was written. For example, a rent check may include a memo that says something like "For December Rent." Language in the memo field is legally binding on the person cashing the check in rare instances.


Read the directions carefully. Wear an old t-shirt when applying messy masks. Wash and towel dry your hair. Separate your hair into sections. Apply the mask from roots to tips. Comb your hair with the mask in place. Rinse out the mask and condition your hair.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Many commercial hair masks come with special instructions. Some may only be designed for weekly use and some may need to be kept in for specific timeframes. Not all hair masks can be used interchangeably in terms of the duration and frequency of use. Make sure to read instructions carefully before applying a hair mask. If you use a mask and find it has adverse results, you may have missed certain instructions. Hair masks can get messy. When applying a hair mask, put an old t-shirt, a hair styling cape, or another item of clothing on you don't mind spilling on. Clothing can easily get damaged during the application process.  You can also try wrapping yourself in a towel while applying a hair mask. You can get a hair styling cape at a beauty store. These capes are like the ones you wear when you get your hair cut. Before applying your hair mask, wash your hair as you normally would. Then, pat your hair dry with a towel so it's damp. Do not blow dry your hair before applying a hair mask. Your hair should be slightly wet when you apply your mask. It's easiest to apply a mask if you separate your wet hair into roughly three or four even sections. For example, try two sections on either side of your head, one in front, and one in back. Secure the sections with clips or hair ties and apply your mask to one section at a time.  Longer and thicker hair may require more sections. You may need to split it into 4-8 sections of hair. If you have very short hair, however, sections may be unnecessary. Start to massage the mask into your scalp. Then, work the mask downward to the tips of your hair. Try to disperse the mask evenly throughout your hair, using gentle massaging motions to apply the mask. Pay extra attention to your tips. Tips are often prone to dryness and need extra care. After applying the mask to your full head of hair, take a medium or wide-toothed comb. Comb through your hair once with the mask in place. This will ensure the mask is more evenly distributed throughout your hair. This may not work on all hair...


Read the draft aloud. Show the draft to others for feedback. Add in screenwriting formatting. Title the screenplay. Find a producer for the film.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This will help you check that the dialogue sounds natural and engaging. It can also help you check that the scenes flow well. You can also do a live read through of the script to help polish it. Ask friends to play certain characters and voice the dialogue. Have actors come in and voice the dialogue to see how it sounds. Get friends, family, and peers to read the screenplay. Ask them if they found the screenplay engaging and interesting. Find out if the ending was surprising or shocking to them. If you know anyone who has written screenplays before or worked in film, ask them to read the screenplay as well. Screenplays use specific formatting so they are easier to read. You can do the formatting manually or get screenwriting software like Final Cut or Movie Magic. Common screenplay formatting includes:  The slugline: This appears in ALL CAPS at the beginning of each scene and explains the location and time of day. INT is used in the slugline if the scene is interior, or indoors, and EXT is used if the scene is exterior, or outdoors. For example: “INT. HOUSE - NIGHT” or “EXT. ROAD - DAY.” Transitions: These show how the camera is moving from scene to scene. They appear in ALL CAPS. Common transitions include FADE IN, FADE OUT, CUT TO, and DISSOLVE TO. Character names: Your character names always appear in ALL CAPS in the screenplay. For example, “MONICA walks down the street” or “PAUL shuts the bedroom door.” You can find more detailed formatting information at Write a Screenplay. Pick a title that is memorable and short. Often, short films have one word titles that sum up the film as a whole. You may use the concept or theme of the film as the title. You could also use the main character’s first name as the title. For example, the short film Stutterer focuses on a man who has a bad stutter. The short film Prego focuses on a woman who deals with an unplanned pregnancy. The producer is the person responsible for finding funding for the film and for organizing the cast and crew. You may decide to produce the...


Read the entire article. Recount the article. Read the article again. Make a list of the five Ws and H. Write a sentence that gives the impact of the story.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Take some time to read through the entire article. Make sure you understand what the article says. Your objective with this assignment is to write a summary of the news story, so you need to fully understand the article.  Look up any words you don’t know. Take notes on the article or highlight passages that you think are important. After you’ve read the article, try to recount the article out loud. You can either tell someone else or just tell yourself. This will help you figure out the main idea of the article.  The headline typically indicates the article’s main idea, but the article will likely include more information that is relevant to your summary. Choose five main points from the article that you think are important. Once you’ve been able to retell the article’s story, read through the article again. Did you catch an important point that you missed before? The five Ws and H are: Who, What, When, Where, Why and How. These correspond to the details of the article that you’ve read. They help you make connections between the main idea and the various elements involved that make up the story. Give specific details for each one. For example:  Who: This is the person or group involved in the story. For a story on a recent arson case, you might say, “The people involved are four teenage boys who were charged with arson, a police investigation team, and the community that lost its historic baseball stadium.” What: This is the event or the action discussed in the story. In an arson case, it might be: “The oldest wooden baseball stadium in the country burned to the ground.” When: This is the date and time when the event took place: “The stadium burned down at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, June 29.” Where: This is where the event took place: “The baseball stadium was in the middle of the city, surrounded by residences.” Why: This is the cause or reason for the event: “The summer has been unusually dry and hot. The stadium had been sitting empty for five years and was not patrolled by security.” How: This point explains...


Read the entire court opinion. Identify the main issue addressed in the case. Look for language that usually precedes the rule of a case.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A published court opinion may contain many different rules and discuss a number of different laws. Reading the entire opinion first can help you identify and classify all of the issues decided in the case. This technique helps prevent you from improperly focusing in on a sole or minor aspect of the case. It is possible for one court opinion to discuss a variety of issues. You must pick out the main issue addressed and decided by the court. This will be the rule or holding of the case. Sometimes a court will make it easy to pick out a holding by using the words “we hold that”, “we find that”, or “our ruling is.” These are all words that should trigger you to look for the rule of the case directly following them.  You might also look to the part of the opinion in which the court identifies which party won the case. The rule may be located near the winning party’s name in the text. For an appellate court opinion, you can look for the outcome of the appeal. The court usually states that it “reverses” or overturns the lower court’s decision, or that it “affirms,” or agrees with the lower court’s decision. A useful tool used in many law schools is requiring students to “brief” the court cases that they read. By mapping out the facts, rule of law, analysis, and conclusion separately, you may be able to better understand the rule of law of the case.


Read the entire lease before you sign it. Walk through the apartment immediately before signing the lease. Arrange for your move.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Make sure that all terms and conditions are exactly what you were told when you initially inquired about the apartment. If you are unsure about anything, ask for clarification or take the lease to an attorney or trusted friend to review. The landlord should be willing to let you walk through the apartment you will be renting just before signing. You should do this to check for any damages or defects. If you notice any, ask the landlord to note these in the contract before signing. Otherwise, the landlord may try to make you pay for these damages later on. The landlord may want to accompany you on this walk through. In some apartments, particularly in big cities with narrow streets and lots of cars, you may have to coordinate the use of parking spaces or service elevators to get your belongings into the apartment. Clarify these with your landlord at least a week or two before your scheduled move-in date.


Read the fine print of the booking before you purchase it. Research the company before signing up.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Airlines made over $2.2 billion in cancellation and change fees alone in the first three quarters of 2014. So, you might not easily get a refund.  So depending on the airline, you might qualify for a full refund or only a partial one.  Each airline has its own rules about changing or cancelling flights, and what this will cost you.  Before booking a hotel through KAYAK, read the conditions that are listed next to it. You can find information about customer experiences with KAYAK online.  Understand how KAYAK works. KAYAK orders reservations on your half, providing your billing information or credit card to the supplier or travel service. It's a good idea to read about the experiences other people have had with the company before you sign up.


Read the ingredients on your shampoo. Wash your hair less often. Create curls in your hair with a styling product.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When you change your washing and hair care routines you will bring out your natural curl. The detergents found in shampoos dry out cuticles and produce frizzy hair, so many people with wavy, thick, or coarse hair have started cleansing their hair without shampoo. Avoid shampoos with sulfates which will dry out your strands and create more frizz.  Skip the shampoo altogether. Wash your hair with a no-poo, low-poo or a co-wash instead of using a shampoo.   Use the co-wash method. Co-wash means cleansing your hair with conditioners that use oils instead of detergents to cleanse your hair.  You can buy sulfate free and no-poo shampoos at stores like Target (L’Oreal Ever Creme Sulfate-Free Moisture System) as well as stores like Sephora (DevaCurl). Because wavy, coarse, and thick hair has a spiral shape, the natural oils produced by the scalp take longer to get to the tip than with normal hair and should, therefore, be washed less often. If you wash your hair every day, try cutting back to washing 2-3 times a week, and see if you notice that you have more curl and less frizzy hair.  Keep track of your washes on a calendar to make sure you are not over washing your hair. Consider using a clarifying shampoo once a week to wash if you are noticing build up in your hair. Everyone's hair texture and oil level is a little bit different, so experiment and see what works for you. It might take a couple weeks before you figure out the best balance of shampoo and no poo washes. Make sure you use a thick cream that moisturizes instead of a mousse with alcohol. For women, TIGI, AG Cosmetics and Kerastase have great products that are both a styling cream and a leave in conditioner and some products that even protect against heat damage, too. For men, there are great styling creams that are advertised for you, for example, Malin and Goetz and Fellow Barber sell creams to make your hair less unruly and more manageable.  After you get out of the shower, blot your hair at the roots with a microfiber towel. Wait 15-20 minutes if...


Read the ingredients. Choose a pencil liner. Pick a gel liner. Select a liquid liner. Avoid waterproof makeup.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Some eyeliners say on the label that they are safe for contact wearers or are hypoallergenic. This, however, is not a guarantee that the eyeliner will be comfortable for sensitive eyes. Make sure eye makeup is formulated without sulfates or parabens, which can cause skin irritation. Talc and kohl should also be avoided to prevent irritation. Fortunately, numerous makeup products are now formulated without these potentially harmful ingredients. Long-wearing eyeliner pencils stay put and tend to be easy on sensitive skin. They are less likely to smudge or run, and they are easy to sanitize to prevent infection or irritation. NARS and Urban Decay offer excellent, smooth pencil eyeliners. Gel eyeliner is applied with a brush and is generally long-lasting. A brush liner may require less pressure than a pencil to apply. Bobbi Brown Gel Liner is easy to apply, and L'Oreal Lacquer Liner is also a good choice for sensitive eyes. With liquid eyeliners, you run the risk of smearing if you flinch or blink while applying the product. However, liquid eyeliners with a felt tip are easier to apply lightly while avoiding smudging rather than liquid liners with a brush. They also are less likely to run and drip into your eyes because nothing is worse for sensitive eyes that getting makeup directly in them. Lancome, Kat Von D Cosmetics, and Stila make liquid liners with felt tips that don’t budge. If applying makeup causes your eyes to water, you may be tempted to try waterproof eyeliner. However, this style of cosmetics is more difficult to remove and may require you to rub harder upon removal, which may cause irritation.


Read the installation guide for your printer if you have it. Plug the printer into your computer. Turn the printer on. Wait for your operating system to detect and install the printer. Install the software that came with the printer. Download the drivers from the manufacturer's website. Run the downloaded drivers.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Lots of printers can be very finicky, and if you have an installation guide you should follow its exact instructions before deferring to these general instructions. You can usually find the installation guide as a PDF file on the manufacturer's support page for your model. You can quickly find the support page for your printer by opening Google and searching for "manufacturer model support". Make sure to plug it into a USB port directly on your computer, and not a USB hub. Some printers will need to be plugged into a power source as well. You should hear the page feed mechanism start and the printer should light up. All modern versions of Windows and OS X should be able to automatically detect the printer and install the necessary drivers for you. You may need to be connected to the internet in order for your operating system to download the appropriate files. For most users, this should be all you need to do in order to begin printing from your computer to your new printer. If you are using an older version of Windows/OS X, or the printer is not automatically detected, read on. This will usually install any drivers that weren't installed automatically by Windows, and may install extra printing software that allow you to take advantage of additional features on your printer. If you don't have the disc that came with the printer, and it wasn't automatically detected by your operating system, read on. As long as your printer was properly automatically installed, you usually don't actually need to install anything else. If you don't have the disc and the printer wasn't installed automatically, you can download the drivers directly from the manufacturer. You will need to know your printer's model number, which should be prominent on the printer itself. You can quickly find the support page for your printer by opening Google and searching for "manufacturer model support". After installing the drivers, your printer should now be ready to print from any program on your computer that supports printing.


Read the instructions on the prescription. Wash your hands and the affected skin area(s). Apply the medication with your fingertips. Use Retin-A consistently. Avoid UV exposure. Use a moisturizer if your skin gets too dry. Contact your physician.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Generally, Retin-A is used daily at bedtime, or once every two to three days. For best results, use it at night. Make sure you confirm with your physician and the pharmacist as to the correct dosage as well as the appropriate method and frequency of use. Feel free to ask the doctor or pharmacist any questions you may have. Wash your hands and face thoroughly with mild soap and water. Try not to use abrasive soap or anything with "microbeads" or other exfoliants. Pat your skin dry. Make sure your skin is completely dry. Wait 20 – 30 minutes before applying Retin-A to ensure it is dry. You could also use a cotton swab or cotton pad, especially if you are using Retin-A in liquid form. Use about a pea-sized amount of Retin-A (whether it be the liquid, gel or cream) or enough to cover the entire affected area lightly. The coverage should be thin and sparing, rather than slathered on the skin. In general, you shouldn't need much more than a pea-sized amount if you're applying it to a specific area. Wash your hands after application.  Apply the medication to the affected skin only. Do not apply to your entire face and/or neck. Take caution when applying Retin-A. You don't want it to get into the areas around your mouth and directly under eyes.  If you do get it in your eye flush with water. Use clean lukewarm water, and flush for 10 to 20 minutes. If irritation persists contact your doctor. Wash your hands thoroughly when you are done applying. This will help you avoid transferring residual Retin-A to other people, on other parts of your skin, or accidentally rubbing into your eyes or in your mouth, all of which can be harmful. It's important that you use Retin-A regularly in order to receive the most benefits from it. Try using it at the same time every evening. This will help make it part of your nightly routine. Retin-A won't work as a one time treatment when you have a pimple. Its action is a long-term remodeling of the skin.  Note that your acne may worsen during the first seven to 10 days, but should improve...


Read the instructions that came with your portable air conditioner carefully. Choose a location for your portable air conditioner. Determine if the window adapter kit will work with your window. Connect the exhaust hose that came with the portable air conditioner to the air conditioning unit. Secure the exhaust hose window connection in place. Plug in your air conditioner.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Save these instructions and any associated warranty information for future use. Place the air conditioner near both a window and an electrical outlet. Ensure that the air conditioner will not be a tripping hazard, and that the airflow will not be obstructed by furniture, plants, etc. Almost all portable air conditioners come with a window adaptor kit that will work, however in some cases the kit is missing or not right for the window, and you will have to improvise a bit.  For the unit to function well, the gaps between the window adapter for the vent hose and the sides of the window must be sealed off. Measure your window opening to determine if the window adapter kit can be expanded or trimmed to fit correctly. If the window adapter kit that came with your portable unit is missing or does not adequately fit your window, take careful measurements of the opening you need to accommodate and have a piece of Plexiglas cut to size at your local hardware store. You can also use a piece of plywood, or even cardboard, to fill the gap.  These options are less attractive, but will work in a pinch. This may be a single hose with connectors already attached, or you may have to first attach an exhaust connector to the unit, and then attach the hose to the connector.  Follow the directions that came with your unit.  Connect the window connection bracket or adapter to the other end of the exhaust hose, if it is not already attached. Run the exhaust hose to the window, and place the window connection bracket or adapter into the open window. Adjust the included window kit sliders or panels until they completely fill the gap between the window connection bracket and the sides of the window.  If you are using a piece of Plexiglas, simply slide it in the windowsill next to (or above) the exhaust hose window connection, and hold it in place until the window is closed. Close the window so that it fits snugly against the exhaust hose window connection, and holds everything firmly in place. In some cases, it may be necessary to use...


Read the instructions. Note whether the warmer uses a bath or steam. Fill the water reservoir. Insert the bottle. Set the control dial and warm the milk.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

No two bottle warmers are exactly alike, so it is essential that you read the instructions thoroughly before using it.  While the exact specifications and instructions vary from machine to machine, there are some general similarities. Note that many, though not all, bottle warmers can also double as baby food warmers for when your child starts eating solids and cereals. Some bottle warmers warm the bottle in a hot water bath, but most use steam.  Bottle warmers that use a warm water bath work the same, in principle, as a warm water bath you create without a bottle warmer. The bottle of breast milk is immersed directly into the heated water. Bottle warmers that use steam use less water. The water is heated in a separate compartment by a heating element or hot plate, and the steam comes up into the bottle compartment to warm the breast milk. This is a more gradual heating method. Pour tap water into the reservoir up to the bottle warmer's "fill line."  If the warmer has no fill line, check the instructions to determine how much water to use.     Water bath warmers tend to use more water than steam warmers. The water should be changed in between uses for almost all water bath warmers and most steam warmers. Some steam warmers have reservoirs that stay filled until the levels dip too low, at which point a refill sensor light goes off. Secure the bottle of breast milk in the warmer, placing it inside the bottle compartment. The bottle will sit loose in some warmers, while others may require you to "snap" it into place. Follow the instructions to determine how high or low to set the temperature dial, if the warmer has a dial. Press the start button and wait for the appliance to click off. Most bottle warmers have a sensor light that comes on and off to tell you when the warming session is done. Others also make a ring or alarm noise when the process is done.


Read the instructions. Place the booster seat in your car's rear seat. Use any clips or guides the booster may have. Check the fit of the booster seat. Check the fit regularly. Secure the booster seat when it is not in use. Use the booster seat as long as necessary.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

While the general techniques for installing a booster seat are the same for all types, each model is designed slightly differently and has specific instructions. To make sure that you know how your booster seat functions, and how to install it, always read the manufacturer's instructions and safety information that are provided with the seat when you purchase it. Booster seats should always be installed in a vehicle's rear seat, never in a front seat. The best location for a booster seat is in the center of a vehicle's rear seat, as long as it fits properly there. However, if your vehicle only has a lap belt in the center position of the rear seat, install the booster seat on the right or left side. If you cannot install a booster seat in the center of the rear seat, choose the side (right or left) that will allow you to best see your child from the driver's seat, and make it easiest to safely remove the child from the vehicle on busy streets. Some booster seats, but not all, have clips or guides to help you position the seatbelt across the seat. Read and follow the manufacturer's instructions provided with your booster seat regarding how to use these, if applicable. Once the booster seat is properly installed, have your child sit in it (while the vehicle is not in motion) to ensure a good fit. Position the seatbelt as you normally would, and make sure the child is snug but comfortable in the booster seat, and that it remains secure on your vehicle's back seat when your child is sitting in it.  Adjust your vehicle's seat belt, if necessary. You should use a lap-shoulder combination seat belt. The lap portion should rest on the child's torso (not stomach), and the shoulder portion should fit across his/her chest. You can also visit a local police department, fire department, or other safety center to have an official check to make sure your booster seat is installed properly. As your child grows, you may have to adjust the seatbelt or position of the booster seat. It may also shift slightly during transit....


Read the instructions. Sort your baby clothing. Set your washing machine. Add detergent to the water. Make your own detergent. Load your washing machine. Await the end of the cycle. Rinse your baby clothes again.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The fabric of your baby clothing might require special treatment for best washing, or may be washable with your normal laundry. Check the tag on each article of baby clothing and note washing temperatures, drying procedures, recommended detergents, and so on. Pajamas and sleepwear are sometimes made of fire retardant material. This material usually requires special cleaning to preserve its flame retardant properties, so be extra careful to check tags on sleepwear. Divide all articles of clothing into smaller loads of white, light, and dark colors. Keep any flame retardant garments separate to ensure you do not wash these with the regular laundry, as this can ruin the fire-resistant properties of those clothes.  If there are any differences in the temperatures at which you should wash the clothing, sort like temperature clothes into a separate pile. You should always wash cloth diapers in a separate load, though you might consider washing these with towels to help balance the washing drum of your washer. Now that you've checked the tags on your baby clothing and know the recommended settings you should use, set both the temperature and washer cycle. Then turn your washer on and allow it to fill with water. If garments don't have labels, wash these in warm water except for:  Cloth diapers, which should be washed in hot water to improve sanitation.  Flame retardant garments, which should be washed in cold or warm water to preserve their flame retardant features. Babies have very sensitive skin, so be sure you use a detergent formulated for infants. Strongly scented detergent, too, should be avoided, as these can be overpowering to very young children. Measure the correct amount of detergent based on the size of the load according to tag and label directions. Baby-friendly detergents are made by most major brands, and are usually clearly labeled as being recommended for babies' sensitive skin. You can make your own baby-friendly detergent by combining 1 cup of castile soap flakes, 1/2 cup washing soda, and 1/2...


Read the introduction to the textbook first. Survey the organization of the textbook. Skip to the end first. Create questions based on your survey. Read out loud. Create a distraction-free environment for reading. Take a break after every chapter.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If it is a book that takes a detailed look at a particular topic, the introduction will summarize the author's argument and present an outline of the book. If the textbook is a general introductory text, such as Introduction to American Government or Principles of Microeconomics, the introduction will serve to tell you how the author is going to approach the topic. First, have a look at the table of contents for the textbook. See how it’s organized; this may help you predict what you will cover in class and what will be on exams. Second, look at the organization of each chapter. Most textbook authors use a detailed outline of major headings and subheadings that they plan to cover in each chapter of their book. Many textbooks offer a recap or summary of the chapter content and study questions or “food for thought” at the end of every chapter. Skipping to this part first, before you read the whole chapter, will help you know what to focus on as you read through the chapter. See if the headings and subheadings provide any clues to potential questions. For example, a section titled Causes of Alcoholism in a psychology textbook might easily be converted into a question you could see on an exam: What are the causes of alcoholism? As you read, look for the answers to these questions. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, consider changing your questions. You may find it easier to comprehend and get through your textbook if you read aloud. Reading aloud can also help you maintain your pace, especially if the prose is dense or complex. Put away your cell phone, do not sit at a computer, and do not allow yourself to be interrupted. We often think that we can multitask and study without full concentration. But if you are going to tackle any subject seriously, then you need to give it your full attention. Focus and you will be rewarded. Go for a 10 minute walk or reward yourself with some entertainment. You won’t study well if you’re exhausted. Approach each chapter with a clear mind.


Read the job ad carefully. Look for a sign. Do not stop by unannounced.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

In today's digital world, the vast majority of job applications are accepted online. Similarly, the corresponding job advertisement for the position is usually posted on the company's web site as well as popular job postings site such as Monster, Indeed, and Glassdoor (non-profits tend to use Idealist and Opportunity Knocks).  Always check the company's web site to make sure they are currently hiring. You can usually find these listed under tabs labelled "Careers" or "Employment Opportunities." Do not just drop by a business if there is no job opening. Check the job ad for information on how to apply. If the job states you should apply in person at their store or office, then it is acceptable to do this. If the job ad says "No calls," it is safe to assume that they also do not want you to show up in person unless they ask you to.  Employers who commonly accept applications in person include restaurants, grocery stores. and other retail businesses. These employers often have an immediate need to fill and are therefore eager to expedite the hiring process.  Determine what time the business is least busy so that a manager will have time to speak with you when you come in. Some businesses will post a sign on their entrance stating "Help Wanted" or some version of that. If you see a sign like this, it is a clear indication your can inquire about a position in person.  Make sure you look presentable and polished when you go inside, even if you just plan on asking about a job instead of submitting a resume or cover letter. Have clean, brushed hair, fresh breath, and non-wrinkled clothes. While you don't need to wear a full suit simply to receive an application, you should look pulled together. Consider wearing slacks, a business skirt and blazer, and a tucked in, button-down shirt. If you have applied for a job, you might think it will give you a competitive edge to actually stop by the office. Perhaps you believe that this will show your sincere interest in the job. But the hiring manager could easily see this as...


Read the job posting carefully and look for red flags. Research the company before applying. Look for contact information that appears professional. Submit only the required documents, like a cover letter or resume. Do not apply to a position that asks for detailed personal information in the job posting. Remember the Do Nots.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Not all Craigslist postings are created equal; some will have less information than others and that is okay. However, it is important to take a look at the information that is there and check for red flags that could mean the posting a scam. These red flags would be if the posting:  Consists of only a few words. For example, “Need writer”. A reputable company would put more effort into specifying the type of writer they need and what you would be writing about. Has grammatical errors. Numerous errors shows a lack of effort that should make you consider whether or not this posting is from a reputable company. Provides no contact information. Your only option will then be to reply to the job posting through Craigslist. It is still okay to apply, but if you are concerned, you can choose to exclude certain personal information (like your home address). Leaves you with many questions. If you find yourself looking for basic information like company, location, title, job duties, etc. it may be a fictitious posting. If the company’s name is listed, research it. Doing your homework and checking out the company will help you to get an idea of what the company is like and whether or not it seems legitimate. Keep in mind, it is not necessarily a scam if the company wishes to remain confidential at first. However, this information must be provided if you are asked to do an interview.  Read or click through their website. Does the website look professional? Is the job listed on a “careers page”? Do you have an understanding of what the company does after looking at their site? Call a general number provided and, if possible, speak to someone. If someone answered the phone, did they use a professional greeting such as “Company B, how may I help you?” If someone did not answer the phone, was there a professional sounding voice mail? If you are looking at a Craigslist posting and can’t find any contact information, or the information seems odd, go to the company’s website and verify their contact information. Be cautious if...


Read the lab ahead of time. Follow safety instructions. Choose a good partner. Divide the work.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When you read the lab ahead of time, you know what to be prepared for. Make sure that you understand the concepts and procedures addressed in the experiment. Write down any questions, especially those pertaining to safety, before lab. Biology labs are used to reinforce concepts learned in lecture, and to prepare students for more advanced lab work. Following the safety precautions not only protects you, it is often a part of your grade. In addition the the general lab rules that your instructor gives you, you should look for any special safety precautions mentioned in the literature for each experiment. If you have the privilege of choosing your lab partner, make sure to choose someone who is there to do well. Your success can be helped or hindered by your partner's drive. Single out someone you know is committed to biology and ask them ahead of time to be your partner. Most labs are designed to be a two (or more) person job. Avoid the urge to do it all, and delegate some work to your partner. If your partner seems to be doing the majority of the work, pitch in and make sure you understand the concepts. Labs are designed to reinforce the concepts covered in your biology class.


Read the label. Examine the ingredients. Think about texture. Consider the other products you use. Look for SPF.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Moisturizers designed for oily skin will often include key words like water-based, non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores), non-acnegenic (won’t cause acne) and/or oil-free. Oil-free products are more complicated than you think, however, as they may contain other ingredients that can clog your pores (like waxes) or irritate your skin (like alcohol). People with oily skin should be on the lookout  for the ingredients that can both help and harm their skin.  Water-based products should have a word than ends in “-icone” (like silicone) as one of the first few ingredients.  Dimethicone is often used as a replacement for petrolatum, which is oil-derived. Dimethicone is both moisturizing and mattifying, which means that it can help control grease and shine.  Look for exfoliating ingredients. Oily skin can often be dull and thick, so choose products with ingredients that will aid in cell turnover. These include lactic, glycolic, and salicylic acid.  Avoid products that include paraffin, cocoa butter, or oils. Moisturizers come in many different forms. From lightest to heaviest, these include gels, lotions, and creams. Keep in mind their different properties when choosing.  People with oily skin should avoid creams and heavy lotions. Instead, choose gels or light lotions. Oily skin can also be acne-prone, which means that you might be using harsh and drying anti-acne products. Don’t irritate your skin further by layering anti-acne moisturizer on top of these products. Instead, look for moisturizer for sensitive skin. If you’re not using other anti-acne products, moisturizers that also fight breakouts might be a good bet for you. Experts recommend that you look for a moisturizer that also protects your skin from the sun. Many people with oily skin worry that sunscreen will exacerbate greasiness and shine, so again look for products that claim not to clog pores or cause acne. You might also want to consider using sunscreen as moisturizer. Sunscreen hydrates your skin, so you might want to skip a second layer, especially if...


Read the label. Test a spot to see if you can wash it at home. Wash silk in cold water. Clean wool garments in cold water. Wash your linens in cold water.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Look for the label with care instructions on your clothing item, which can often be found on an inside seam. If the label says, “Dry Clean Only,” you should consider taking it to the dry cleaners. If it simply says, “Dry Clean,” you are probably fine to wash it at home. If it is silk or wool, you can hand-wash them instead of going to the dry cleaner. Find a spot on the garment that is rarely seen. Drip a few drops of water on this spot. Using a cotton swab, rub the water across the surface of the garment. Take a look at the cotton swab to see if any color has been removed in the process. If the color bleeds, you need to take it to the dry cleaner. If not, go ahead and wash it at home. Fill a tub or sink with cold water and a small amount of mild detergent or, if you have it, silk detergent. Gently, hand-wash your silk garment in under thirty minutes, since silk suffers from prolonged water exposure. Air dry the silk garment.  Silk is a little harder to clean at home. If you decide to do it yourself, you should use a silk detergent, which may be tailored for lingerie or silk sheets. You can also clean silk fabrics on a hand wash cycle in your washing machine. The main challenge with washing wool at home is felting, which occurs when the wool fibers get matted together during washing. To avoid this scenario, you need to hand-wash wool garments with a gentle touch in a tub of cold water. Use a wool cleaner, such as Woolite, to clean cashmere, angora or other wool garments.  Avoid putting wool garments in the washing machine, since the agitation of the machine cycle will likely result in felting and shrunken garments. Avoid using detergents with a lot of chemicals when cleaning cashmere. Instead, choose all natural cashmere detergents.  Always lay out your wool garments flat to dry. Use a mild detergent in a tub of cold water to hand-wash your linen garments. Then, air dry your linens. Right after washing, you should press them. They may get wrinkled if you don't press them right after the hand-wash.  You can...


Read the labels on cans of paint carefully to see how much they cover. Get roughly 1 US gal (3.8 L) for every 400 sq ft (37 m2) if your walls are smooth. Buy approximately 1 US gal (3.8 L) for every 250 sq ft (23 m2) if your walls are rough. Get twice as much paint if you’re covering a color or adding 2 coats.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Many cans of paint list the number of square feet or meters that they cover on the label. This is mainly because certain styles of paint cover walls differently. If the paint can lists the number of square feet or meters that it covers, use that measurement to determine how many cans to buy instead of estimating. For example, if a 1 gallon (3.8 L) can reads that it covers 350 square feet (33 m2), and your wall is 10,000 square feet (930 m2), divide 10,000 square feet (930 m2) by 350 square feet (33 m2) to determine how many gallons (or liters) you need. If you have a new or refurbished home with smooth walls, your paint won’t have a hard time covering your drywall. Buy approximately 1 gallon (3.8 L) of paint for every 400 square feet (37 m2) that you’re going to paint.  This is a rough estimate. The texture of your walls, brand of paint, and the temperature of your room will all change the amount of paint you need to cover a wall. For example, if your sum total is 4,265 square feet (396.2 m2) and your walls are even, divide 4,265 square feet (396.2 m2) by 400 square feet (37 m2) to get 10.66 gallons (40.4 L). Always round up when you have a decimal or fraction at the end of your measurement for the paint. If you need more than 4 gallons (15 L), buy in 5 US gal (19 L) increments. Paint suppliers typically offer a discount for buying 5 US gal (19 L) containers instead of smaller 1 gallon (3.8 L) cans. If you’re painting exposed brick, stucco, or older drywall, your paint is going to have a rougher time soaking into the texture of your walls. Buy roughly 1 gallon (3.8 L) for every 250 square feet (23 m2) to play it safe. For example, if your sum total is 4,265 square feet (396.2 m2) and your walls are kind of old, divide 4,265 square feet (396.2 m2) by 250 square feet (23 m2) to get 17.06 gallons (64.6 L). If you’re going to be painting some red or green walls white, you’re going to need a lot more paint to cover your walls. If you plan on painting multiple coats, double the square footage that you calculated...

Read the limerick aloud. Show the limerick to others. Title the limerick.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Emphasize the stressed syllables by saying the words louder when you read the poem aloud. You can also clap your hands on the stressed syllables in the limerick to make sure they are present in each line.  Make sure the limerick follows the proper rhyme scheme. Adjust it if the rhythm or rhyming is off. Check that there are no spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors in the limerick. Get friends, peers, and family members to read your limerick and give you feedback. Ask them if they feel the limerick flows well and has the correct rhythm when read aloud. Notice if the limerick makes others laugh or giggle. This is a good sign it is successful. Be open to constructive feedback on the limerick from others. Most poets will use the first line as the title of the poem, such as “There once was a man from Dover” or “There was a shy boy named Mark.” Place the title above the first line of the poem. You can also title the poem simply “Limerick” or the name of the main character, such as “Selina the Ballerina.”


Read the manual for your washer. Avoid electrical shock. Grab some towels. Figure out where to put the water. Wait for the water to cool.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The methods included here are fairly standard and should generally work with most washers. Even so, break out your owner’s manual and read over the appropriate sections, just in case any directions or advice are particular to that manufacturer and/or model. Check its table of contents or index for subjects like:  Drainage issues and troubleshooting Disconnecting and reconnecting drain hoses and/or filters Draining your washer shouldn’t be an out-of-control project with water flying everywhere, but play it safe anyway. If your washer is plugged into a power outlet, unplug it. If it’s hardwired into your electrical system instead, switch off the appropriate circuit breaker. Eliminate the risk of electrocution just in case you experience any unforeseen mishaps. Do the same with any other electrical devices in the immediate area. Again, this project shouldn’t create a huge mess, but be prepared for at least a little water to possibly go wild. Before you begin, set yourself up with some towels to keep on hand. Make clean-up a cinch by having them within easy reach in case you spill any water on the floor or elsewhere.  Draining a front-loading machine is more likely to be messy than a top-loading machine, so if that’s what you have, expect more spills. In addition to towels, you could also lay out a tarp, dropcloth, or similar material on the floor around your washer. This may seem like a no-brainer, but make life easier by knowing exactly how you’ll dispose of the water before you start. If your laundry room has a drain in the floor, use that. If your washer is in a bathroom and has a drainage hose that will reach, use your bathtub or shower stall. Otherwise, have a bucket or dish ready to transport the water to a sink or tub elsewhere in your home.  Be aware that used water from your washer is usually considered “gray water.” Your local, state, or even federal government may have laws regarding the proper disposal of gray water. This means that you may not be allowed to simply toss it outside so it can soak into...


Read the manufacturer's instructions first. Ventilate the area well. Mix the 2 parts together if you're using an epoxy. Divide the room into quarters visually. Use a hand brush to apply the sealer along the edge. Paint the sealer on the concrete with a paint pad or rolling brush. Apply a single, even layer across the floor. Wait for the sealer to dry before walking or driving on it. Add a second coat as needed.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Every sealer is going to be a little bit different, so follow the instructions carefully. Take a moment to read all the way through them before you begin. Check the preferred temperatures for application on the back of the product. Some sealers may not set well if you apply them in weather that is too hot or too cold. Too much humidity may also be an issue, as it can keep the sealer from curing properly. If you're working in the garage, ventilation is easy. Just open the garage door. If you're working inside, make sure to open as many windows as you can. It also helps to have a fan facing outside to draw any fumes outward. Some sealers come in 2 parts. Pour the smaller can into the bigger can, and then use a stir stick to combine them. Don't take this step until you are ready to start painting! If you're using epoxy, you may only have an hour or so to get it down, so work quickly. It's best to work on 1 quarter at a time. Finish the whole quarter before moving on the next, and always leave yourself a way out so you don't have to walk across the wet sealer. Pick a paintbrush that's 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) wide and meant for applying paint or sealer. Dip the paintbrush into the sealer. Run it along the edges of the first quarter you're painting, where your rolling brush or paint pad may not be able to reach. Use nice, even strokes to apply the sealer. Pour the sealer into a painting tray. Dip the paint pad or rolling brush with an extension into the sealer, rolling it on evenly. Slide the paint pad or rolling brush along the edge you just painted. Keep going across the floor, adding more sealer as needed.  Always keep a wet edge as you move across the area. If you let the edge dry, it won't blend into the next area of sealer you apply. Any roller or paint pad meant for painting should be fine. As you work, move across the room, completing one quarter at a time. Make sure the sealer doesn't puddle in any place by going over any low areas a few times to spread it out. Be careful to cover the whole floor so...


Read the manufacturer's instructions. Set the generator in a proper place. Check the fuel level. Check the generator’s oil level. Inspect the generator’s air filter. Flip the circuit breaker off. Turn on the fuel valve. Start the generator. Connect your devices. Turn the generator off. Keep an adequate supply of fuel for your needs. Turn the generator off and let it cool before refueling it. Inspect your generator regularly.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you have never used your generator before, or if you haven’t used it in a long time, it is critical to read all instructions and safety information provided with the generator. Before attempting to start the generator, take a few minutes to read over the information provided by the manufacturer so that you understand how to safely operate the machine. Consider storing safety information with the generator so that it is easy to find when you need it in a hurry. Generators can get hot and noisy, and produce dangerous fumes. Keep the generator outdoors, in a dry location, at least 3 feet away from anything else, and at least 20 feet away from any open doors and windows. Your generator should have some sort of fuel gauge. Make sure that the generator's fuel tank is adequately filled before starting the machine. Add more of the appropriate fuel, if necessary. Generators need oil to lubricate their running parts. Following your generator’s manufacturer’s instructions, check the oil level of your generator before starting it up. Add more oil (using only the type specified by the manufacturer), if necessary. Your portable generator takes in air as part of the combustion process it runs to produce power. The filter traps dirt and debris, to ensure that the air the generator takes in is pure. You must inspect the filter before starting the generator. If it is dirty or clogged, clean or replace it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Your generator will have a switch that controls when it puts out power. Make sure that it is safely in the “OFF” position before starting the generator. This control determines when fuel flows to the generator’s engine. The generator needs the fuel in order to run and produce power, but you should not flip the fuel valve on until you are ready to start the generator. Using your generator’s “START” switch or key, power the machine up. You should let the generator warm up and run for several minutes before switching the circuit breaker to the “ON” position (check your generator’s...


Read the manufacturer’s instructions. Choose the right fuel. Open all the controls. Put in some kindling. Light the fire. Add some small logs.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Many wood stoves come with specific directions from the manufacturer. You should read these before starting a fire in your wood stove to ensure that you're doing it properly and safely. If you don’t have the manual for your stove, check the manufacturer’s website for a copy. The best wood to use is seasoned wood that’s been drying for at least six months. Fresh wood contains too much water, and burning it will waste wood and money. Moreover, wet wood creates lots of smoke, and lots of creosote buildup.  Creosote is a combination of chemicals made up of unburned fuel. This material can build up in your chimney and can lead to chimney fires. In terms of type of wood, you can choose between hardwood and softwood. Hardwoods that come from deciduous trees are denser and produce a hotter and longer burn, so they're ideal for cold winters. Softwoods are less dense, so they produce a cooler fire that’s great for cool spring or fall nights.  Fireplace wood can be found at many convenience stores, gas stations, hardware stores, grocery stores, garden centers, wood suppliers, and online. Oxygen is one of the things that a fire needs to burn, and many wood stoves have one or more levers you can use to control valves that allow air into the firebox. When you're starting a fire, you want all the valves fully open.  The primary source of air in many wood stoves is an air intake under the grate that provides oxygen to the fire bed. Many wood stoves will have a lever under or beside the door that controls this valve. Stoves may also have a secondary air valve above the firebox to provide oxygen to the flames, as well as a damper that opens and closes the flue. The best way to get a fire going in a wood stove is to start with small pieces of wood that can increase the temperature inside the firebox and get the flames burning. To set up the kindling:  Crumple up five or six pieces of newspaper. Make sure the paper is dry. Place the newspaper balls into the center of the firebox. Lay up to 15 pieces of kindling on top of the...


Read the news. Avoid awkward subjects. Discuss the setting. Remember facts about others. Add interesting facts when you can. Remember you can always ask questions. Keep the conversation going during lulls. Learn something from each conversation.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Having a lot to discuss can improve your small talk skills. One way to do this is to stay up-to-date on the news. Most people follow current events to some degree. Being able to comment on what's happening in the world can be excellent fodder for small talk.  The news can usually make a good conversation starter. For example, you can say something like, "Did you hear about..." or "How do you feel about..." However, it may be best to avoid controversial topics in small talk. You do not want to make someone feel uncomfortable asking their opinion on a hot button issue. Certain subjects should not be raised during small talk. They tend to halt the conversation, and may make others feel awkward. While engaging in small talk, make sure to avoid conversation killers.  Don't talk about yourself too much. While it's okay to talk about your own experience, do not relate everything the other person says back to a personal anecdote. Never interrupt someone. Even if you think you know where a sentence is going, it's considered rude to try to finish someone else's sentence. Avoid arguing with someone during small talk. If someone brings up a political point you don't agree with, let it slide instead of arguing. People may take disagreements personally, and you don't want to risk alienating someone. This is another good go-to if you're nervous during small talk. You can always talk about the setting. Comment on the theme or atmosphere of a bar where you're socializing. Make a comment on the weather. Compliment someone's home or apartment if you've been invited over for dinner. You will be a better conversationalist if you can remember small details about people's lives. This can help streamline small talk. When people tell you about themselves, make note of small details. You can use these to fuel small talk later. For example, you may learn you co-worker has a dog named Linus. If you need to, say, make small talk in the elevator, you can ask something like, "How is Linus doing?" You can always talk a bit about yourself if...


Read the novel out loud. Show the novel to others. Revise the novel.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Once you have a draft of the novel, spend time listening to how it sounds out loud. Read passages of it aloud to yourself and to others. Listen for any awkward sentences or shifts in tone, where the language or vocabulary changes. Notice if the novel has a sense of rhythm and pacing. Reading the novel aloud can also help you catch spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors. Critiquing your own work can be difficult. Get feedback from others to help you revise the novel. Ask friends, peers, family members, and teachers to read the novel. Have them give you feedback on whether they found the novel engaging, well paced, well described, and enjoyable to read. Once you get feedback, spend time revising the novel so it is at its best. You may need to rewrite whole sections of the novel or move sections around to help with pacing and character. Be willing to pull the novel apart and rework it. It can take many drafts to get the novel to the state that you want it to be.


Read the opening lines out loud. Revise the beginning once you have reached the end. Edit the beginning for clarity, voice, and style.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Once you have written the opening of your horror story, you should read them out loud to hear how they sound on the page. Note if the opening lines feel unsettling or disturbing. Check if the opening lines contain plot, characterization, setting, and voice. You may also read the opening lines out loud to a trusted friend or peer to get a second opinion. Ask your listener if they find the story creepy, disturbing, or horrifying. Be willing to take constructive criticism and feedback about the opening, as getting a second viewpoint on the beginning can make it stronger. Often, cracking the beginning lines can make it easier to then write the rest of the story. Once you have created a satisfying ending to your horror story, you should go back and revise the beginning. This will ensure your beginning still fits with where your story ended up. You should consider if the beginning section flows well with the rest of the story. You should also adjust the beginning to reflect any changes to your character or your setting that you made later on in the story. You want your beginning to feel like a natural start to the rest of the story. You should also read over the beginning section to ensure it is not confusing in anyway and that it is easy to follow for the reader. There is nothing worse than an opening section that does not make sense to a reader, as they may get so frustrated they stop reading any further. Make sure the character voice in the beginning section matches the character voice in the rest of the story. You want a consistent character voice throughout your story so it feels cohesive.


Read the opera's synopsis in the brochure. Pay attention to the translation if you feel confused. Focus more on the music than the dialogue. Bring or rent a pair of opera glasses to see more detail.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The synopsis can give you the overall gist of what the production's about and help you differentiate between the main characters. It may also have a brief outline of the acts and major arias. Refer to the synopsis throughout the evening if you feel lost or forget which character is which. If you can, bring someone with you who has seen the opera before so you can ask them questions during the intermission. Many operas have translations for guests to follow along with either in a brochure or on a back-screen behind the stage. Read these subtitles if you want to know what a character is singing about and follow closely along with the music. Don't spend the whole time staring at the subtitles screen. Although the dialogue is important, the action on stage is often just as or more important. If you're not paying attention to the stage, you may miss out  the overall spectacle.  As mentioned, be sure to get a sense of the overall plot of the story. It will help you relax about catching every single lyric. Translations can vary in quality. While reading the subtitles and paying attention to the plot is important, the meaning of an opera is best transferred through the music itself. During major arias, take a break from reading the translations and try to immerse yourself in the singers and the orchestra. If you are fluent in another language, like Italian or Russian, seeing an opera in that language may help you understand the plot and its emotional intensity at the same time. Opera glasses, or theater binoculars, can help you see costumes and theatrical expressions clearly. Most opera venues allow patrons to rent a pair of opera glasses if you don't want to put the money into a pair.


Read the owner's manual. Turn the screen off. Start with a dry microfiber cloth. Dampen the cloth.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Most devices with LED screens come with an owner's manual. That manual will often describe the best method to clean the screen, as well as the best cleaner to use. It will also tell you what to avoid. If you can't find your manual, you can often find it online by searching with the product number. LED screens do heat up some when they're on, so it's best to turn them off before cleaning. Let it sit for a while until it's cool. Doing so can make it easier to clean, as some of the static electricity will dissipate, which in turn will help release the dust. Rub the screen down in gentle circles using just a microfiber cloth. The cloth will likely pick up most of the smudges on your screen, as it is able to pick up both dirt and oil. If it's not working, you may need to add water next.  Scrub gently. If your screen is extra smudged, you may be tempted to really put some elbow grease into it. However, LED screens can be fairly sensitive, so don't press down hard. If you press too hard, you could end up with a cracked screen.  Using paper towels or sponges you have around the house can damage the screen. A microfiber cloth is soft enough not to scratch the surface, but it is both able to hold water and capture oil, which are good qualities in a cleaning cloth. Plus, its fibers easily remove dirt. A soft, lint-free cloth will also work. Start with a clean cloth, as dirt in the cloth can scratch the surface. Make sure you don't use fabric softener on the cloths, though, as that can lead to a layer on the cloth that will inhibit cleaning. Add some water to the cloth. Wring out any excess liquid. You don't want so much water that the cloth is sopping. Rub down the screen in gentle circles with the cloth, focusing on areas that are particularly smudged. Never spray water or cleaner directly on the screen, as it can seep into areas it's not supposed to go.


Read the package instructions. Choose the appropriate liquid to mix with cereals. Toss out unused cereals. Be patient with your child.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Regardless of what type of cereal you purchase for your baby, it's important to make sure that you follow the mixing instructions correctly.  This will help ensure your baby is getting the right amount of cereal.  Each infant cereal will have specific instructions listed on the actual product.  Before you purchase a product, make sure you read over the instructions. If you need to cook or heat the cereal, make sure to follow the directions to ensure the cereal is prepared correctly.  Always allow a cereal to come down to room temperature before feeding it to your child. The cereal should be mixed until it's a thin and quite liquid consistency.  You may need to add more milk or formula to get it to the right consistency. When preparing an infant or baby cereal, you'll need to mix the dry cereal with a liquid.  Take advantage of this opportunity to add more nutrition to your baby's cereal.  Most cereals will tell you to mix with breast milk or formula.  This helps increase the nutrient content (especially in terms of protein and fat) of the cereal.  It's essential that you do this step. You can mix your infant cereal with water if you do not have any breast milk or formula available to you.  However, try to limit how often you do this. Like most baby foods, you do not want to keep prepared cereals long.  Feeding your child leftovers can put them in danger of getting sick.  You need to be extra careful with how long you store uneaten baby cereals.  Babies and infants are the most susceptible to foodborne illness since their immune systems are still immature. If you make extra baby cereal, only put a few tablespoons into a bowl.  Do not feed your child from the larger serving.  Saliva can contaminate the cereal if you were to store it the refrigerator. Throw out any extra cereal your child didn't consume from their pre-portioned serving.  In addition, only keep baby cereal for 24 hrs. All children tolerate foods at different stages and at different times.  As you and your child get the hang of eating solids,...


Read the play and understand it. Go through the play again and highlight your lines. Don't be overwhelmed by the amount of lines you need to learn.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Before you can understand why your character is saying what they’re saying, you need to know what’s happening in the play. Focus on your character’s motivation and their relationship to other characters. It might help for you to write this information down so you can reference it later.  One of the best questions to ask yourself is: “Why is my character saying this?”  Keep a notebook dedicated to your character notes, so you can reference the information easily. Make sure you have your character workbook with you whenever you’re working on your lines. By highlighting your lines, you’re making sure your eye is drawn to the most important information on the page. Highlight the lines directly before your lines in a different color. These lines are your “cue” lines that let you know that it’s your turn to speak, so you should memorize those along with your own lines. Make sure you can write on your script before highlighting anything! If you can’t highlight your version, try scanning it or copy your lines down by hand onto another sheet of paper. The excitement of getting a big part can sometimes turn to dread when you realize how much having a big part equals having a lot of lines to learn. But instead of being disheartened, think of it as an opportunity! These lines give you more information about your character and a larger opportunity to craft a deep, thought-out character.  Try to learn one line, one scene at a time. As you get more practice in memorization, the better you will get at it. Remember that you will have to put in more effort and time the more lines you have. Plan accordingly. Accordingly, others around you should understand you will have more lines as a principal part than say, a member with five lines in the play.


Read the poem out loud. Make sure you read the poem in full. Mark down notes on the poem as you read it.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Poetry is often written for the ear, so you should start by reading the poem out loud as it will help you listen to the poem more closely. Listen to the poem line by line, word by word. Notice the sounds the words make in your mouth. You may start to notice that the poem is using certain effects, like rhyming, word patterns, or line breaks, to create a certain mood or tone. Try to listen to what might be going on in the poem, especially the first time you read the poem out loud.  You will need to read the poem out loud at least 3 times and really listen to each word on the page. If you are uncomfortable with reading poetry out loud, you may ask a friend or peer to read it for you so you can listen more closely without being distracted by your voice. The first time you read the poem out loud, focus on the imagery of the poem. Just listen to the words and notice the impression you get from them. The second time you read the poem out loud, pay attention to the action. What is happening in the poem? The third time, focus on the sounds. How do they contrast with or contribute to your understanding of the poem? To fully understand the poem as a whole, you should make sure you read the poem from beginning to end. Read the title of the poem as well as the author, if noted. You should also read any endnotes or footnotes at the bottom of the poem, if any. The poem was written to form a whole piece, or work of art, so you should ensure that you read and digest all of it. You should have a pencil or pen ready as you read the poem out loud and in your head several times. Underline any words that have a strong meaning or an interesting sound to your ear. Circle any words that you find confusing or that jump out at you as important. You can also write notes to yourself in the margins of the poem. You may put a question mark next to a passage or line that strikes you as strange or unique. You may also write a note about the sound of certain lines or drawn arrows connecting certain lines to each other.


Read the poem to yourself. Read the poem aloud. Scan the poem for rhythm and meter. Consider how the poem is organized. Look for literary devices in the poem. Identify the form of the poem.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Start by reading the poem to yourself. Keep a pencil or pen nearby so you can underline, star, or mark any lines that you like or that stand out to you. You may also underline or circle any words or phrases that you find confusing or unclear. You can then return to these notes later to help you analyze the poem. Your first reading should be treated as an introduction to the poem. Instead of trying to understand the full meaning and form of the poem, you only need to briefly familiarize yourself with it. On your second reading of the poem, read it aloud. Read slowly in your normal voice and take your time to read each word. You may read a line over again that you find unclear or confusing. Listen to how the language sounds when read out loud. Consider if it sounds different when read out loud versus when read in your head.  If there are any commas or periods in the poem, you should view them as pauses. Pause after each comma or period when you read the poem out loud. Punctuation is important and put in the poem intentionally by the poet for a reason. If there are any line breaks in the poem, where there are spaces or gaps between lines or words, take the breaks as a pause. Slow down when you read the line breaks and leave pauses when required. Depending on the popularity of the poem, you might be able to find an audio recording of the poet or another individual reading the poem aloud. You can listen to such recordings, but read along silently as you do instead of listening passively. Most poems will have a certain rhythm and meter, where they are written in a specific pattern. Reading the poem aloud will help you listen for the rhythm and meter of the poem. The only type of poetry that does not have a clear rhythm and meter is free verse poetry. All other types will have some kind of pattern you can follow.  Consider if the poet uses rhyme in the poem. Does the poem rhyme at the end of each line? Every other line? You may try noting the rhyme scheme of the poem to help you determine the form. The rhyme scheme...


Read the problem carefully. Determine what you are asked to find. Summarize what you know, and what you need to know. Assign variables to the unknown quantities. Look for keywords.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A common setback when trying to solve algebra word problems is assuming what the question is asking before you read the entire problem. In order to be successful in solving a word problem, you need to read the whole problem in order to assess what information is provided, and what information is missing. In many problems, what you are asked to find is presented in the last sentence. This is not always true, however, so you need to read the entire problem carefully. Write down what you need to find, or else underline it in the problem, so that you do not forget what your final answer means. In an algebra word problem, you will likely be asked to find a certain value, or you may be asked to find an equation that represents a value.  For example, you might have the following problem: Jane went to a book shop and bought a book. While at the store Jane found a second interesting book and bought it for $80. The price of the second book was $10 less than three times the price of he first book. What was the price of the first book? In this problem, you are asked to find the price of the first book Jane purchased. Likely, the information you need to know is the same as what information you are asked to find. You also need to assess what information you already know. Again, underline or write out this information, so you can keep track of all the parts of the problem. For problems involving geometry, it is often helpful to draw a sketch at this point. For example, you know that Jane bought two books. You know that the second book was $80. You also know that the second book cost $10 less than 3 times the price of the first book. You don’t know the price of the first book. If you are being asked to find a certain value, you will likely only have one variable. If, however, you are asked to find an equation, you will likely have multiple variables. No matter how many variables you have, you should list each one, and indicate what they are equal to. For example, assign the variable x{\displaystyle x} to the unknown in the...


Read the problem. Set up a long division problem. Estimate the first term of your quotient. Multiply your first term by the divisor. Subtract. Carry down the next term of the dividend. Start the process over again. Multiply the last term of the quotient by the divisor. Subtract. Report your result.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The problem may be presented to you as a straightforward division problem, with instructions to find the quotient. You may also have a fraction, with one polynomial as the numerator and a binomial as the denominator. You should recognize this as an opportunity to perform division.  For example, a division problem could be stated as, “Find the quotient when 3x2+20x+12{\displaystyle 3x^{2}+20x+12} is divided by x+6{\displaystyle x+6}.” The same problem could ask you, “One factor of 3x2+20x+12{\displaystyle 3x^{2}+20x+12} is x+6{\displaystyle x+6}. What is the other factor?” Finally, the exact same problem may just appear as 3x2+20x+12x+6{\displaystyle {\frac {3x^{2}+20x+12}{x+6}}}. You should recognize that the fraction form means to divide the numerator by the denominator. Just as you would with numbers, begin by drawing a long division symbol, something like this:  )¯¯¯¯¯¯ . The polynomial that is your dividend goes in the space under the symbol. The divisor is placed to the left of the symbol.  The "dividend" is the large term whose factors you are trying to find. The "divisor" is the factor that you are dividing by. The "quotient" is the answer of any division problem. With polynomials, this problem will look like: x+6)3x2+20x+12¯{\displaystyle x+6{\overline {)3x^{2}+20x+12}}}. When you are doing long division with numbers, you don’t try to divide the entire number in one step. You look at the first one or two numbers of the dividend and estimate how many times the first digit of the divisor will go into that. You will do the same with polynomial division. Look at the first term of the divisor and decide how many times that will go into the first term of the dividend.  For example, if you are dividing 642 by 3, you begin by considering how many times 3 will divide into the first digit of 642. Three goes into six twice, so you will write a 2 above the 6 over the division line. For the polynomial division, consider the first term of the dividend, 3x2{\displaystyle 3x^{2}} and the first term of the divisor,...


Read the problem. Think of the problem in terms of slope-intercept form. Find the slope of the line. Find the y-intercept. Write the equation in slope-intercept form. Test it out.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Before you can move forward, you need to carefully read the problem to understand what is being asked of you. Read the following problem: Your bank account increases linearly each week. If after 20 weeks of work, your bank account is at $560, while after 21 weeks of work it is at $585, find a way to express the relationship between how much money you've earned and how many weeks you've worked in slope-intercept form. Write y=mx+b{\displaystyle y=mx+b}. m{\displaystyle m} represents the slope (change) and b{\displaystyle b} (the y-intercept) represents the y-coordinate where the line intersects the y-axis. Notice that the problem states, "Your bank account increases linearly each week," meaning that you are saving the same amount of money each time, which means it will have a smooth slope. That "smooth," uniformly consistent savings plan makes it linear. If you don't save the same amount all the time, then it is not linear. To find the slope, you have to find the rate of change. This is m=ΔyΔx=y2−y1x2−x1{\displaystyle m={\frac {\Delta y}{\Delta x}}={\frac {y2-y1}{x2-x1}}}. This symbol: Δ{\displaystyle \Delta } is a Greek symbol named "Delta", which means change in. If you started with $560 and now have $585 the next week, then you have earned $25 after 1 week of work. You can figure this out by subtracting $560 from $585. $585−$560=$25{\displaystyle \$585-\$560=\$25}. To find the y-intercept, or the b{\displaystyle b} in y=mx+b{\displaystyle y=mx+b}, you'll need to find the starting point of the problem (where it intersects the [vertical axis] y-axis. This means you need to know how much money you started with in your account.  If you had $560 after 20 weeks of work, and you know that you earn $25 after every week of work, then you can multiply 20 \times 25 to figure out how much money you earned in those 20 weeks. 20×25=500{\displaystyle 20\times 25=500}, which means that you earned $500 in those weeks. Since you have $560 after 20 weeks and have earned $500, you can figure out how much you started with by...


Read the product instructions before taking a psyllium husk powder. Add psyllium husk into your diet slowly. Mix the psyllium husk powder with eight ounces (0.2l) of water or juice. Drink the mixture immediately. Increase your dosage to two teaspoons in eight ounces of water after one to two weeks. Take a serving of psyllium wafers if you can't swallow the psyllium husk drink mix. Take psyllium capsules if you cannot take the powder or wafers without nausea or discomfort. Be patient if you are using psyllium husk for constipation. Make other lifestyle changes to help with constipation.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Some products may not be compatible with certain medications or chronic conditions. In addition, dosages differ with each product. Most psyllium husk products can be taken one to three times a day. Your doctor may suggest a higher dosage to relieve severe constipation or diarrhea or if you are using it for other issues. It is better to add fiber to your diet slowly to decrease discomfort, bloating and gas. Measure half teaspoon dose the first time you take psyllium and increase the amount by a half teaspoon every few days until you are taking the recommended dosage. Stir it well for about 10 seconds. Add more liquid if it is too thick. Do not allow the mixture to sit after you have mixed it because it will begin to form a gel that may be difficult to swallow. Psyllium husk becomes gel-like and bulky after a short time. It can create a choking hazard if it is taken in a semi-solid form. Make sure that you have used enough liquid and that you drink the mixture right away to avoid this potential hazard. If your psyllium husk mixture is gel-like, throw it out and mix a new batch. If you are taking multiple doses of psyllium husk, try to space your doses out throughout the day. For example, you could take one dose of psyllium husk in the morning, one at midday, and one in the evening.  Keep in mind that your doctor may suggest a higher dosage to relieve severe constipation or diarrhea. Do not exceed the recommended dosage unless your doctor has told you to do so. For treatment of high cholesterol, 10 to 12 g of psyllium may be prescribed. This is approximately two to three tbsp. of psyllium, broken up into smaller doses with 8 to 16 oz. of water throughout the day.  If you think that you may have overdosed on psyllium, contact your local poison control center by calling 1-800-222-1222. Wafers may also be preferable if you dislike the taste of the drink mix. Take small bites and chew each bite very well. Drink a glass of water or juice with the wafer. This will ensure it starts to bulk up when it reaches your...


Read the publication's guidelines for formatting information. Place your name and contact information at the top. Add the number of lines in the upper right-hand corner. Put the title in the center of the page. Create a new heading for the second page of a long poem. Justify and indent the text of your poem.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Most publications have preferred formatting. Make sure you read the submissions page to find out how they want you to format your poem before continuing.  For instance, some publications prefer blind submissions, meaning you won't put your name on the document itself. Others want your information on every page. Find the button marked "Submit" or "Submissions" on the publication's home page. You might see "For Authors" instead. In the upper left-hand corner of the page, type your full name, followed by your mailing address, phone number, e-mail address, and website. Put each piece of information on a separate line with the address in standard format. Use left justification for the address. Highlight the text, and pick the left justification button at the top. Put this information at the top of every new poem, before the poem itself starts.  Do not put this information in a header. Format your heading like this: Jane Poet123 Writing AvenuePenandink, TX 73313123-456-7890JanePoet@thisismyemail.comwww.janepoet.com Count the lines in your poem, and add that to the top like this: "28 lines." When submitting more than one poem, add the number of lines for each poem at the top of the poem's first page. The poem lines should be parallel with your name across the page. Do not put this information in the header. Skip a couple of lines between your contact info and the title. Highlight the title, and center it on the page with the center justification button. Place the title in all caps. Do not use quotation marks or italicize the font. Put your name on the first line. The second line should have the name of the poem, the page number, and either the phrase "begin new stanza" or "continue stanza." That tells the reader you're starting a new stanza or you're continuing one from the previous page. Skip a line, and begin the poem. You can shorten the poem title to one word.

Read the question carefully. Come up with a thesis statement. Plan out your content. Think about your structure.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The first thing to do if you have an economics essay assigned is carefully read and analyse the question. It’s essential that you fully understand what you are being asked and keep this in your mind throughout. Pick out the essential point from the question and highlight it. If it is a complex question you find it helpful to breakdown it down into component parts.  For example a question such as “Discuss the macroeconomic consequences of rising house prices, alongside falling interest rates” could be divided into 2 parts: 1 part could be on the effects of rising prices, and 1 on the effects of falling interest rates. In this example you could begin by discussing each separately and then bringing the 2 together and analysing how they influence each other. Be sure to keep the question at the forefront of your mind and don’t veer off topic. A thesis statement is the main argument you will make in your essay. It should be 1-2 sentences long and respond to the essential question that’s being asked. The thesis will help you structure the body of your essay, and each point you make should relate back to the thesis. After thinking about the question, and doing some research, you will have developed some ideas about what to write in your essay. Writing a good essay plan will help you stay focussed on the key points, and produce a clearly structured essay that flows and develops. Start by writing the key points you want to focus on in a basic list.  Once you have put together a list of key points, then try to add in some more detail that brings in elements from your research. When you come to write out your essay, you can develop a paragraph based on each point. Now you have mapped out the key points that you want to discuss in your essay, you need to spend some time thinking about how you will put it all together. The structure of your essay is very important, and shouldn’t be overlooked. Generally essays will be structured in three parts: Introduction; Main Body; and Conclusion.  All of the evidence and explanation...

Read the script out loud. Ask others to read the dialogue. Watch a portion of the script and the animation together.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Once you have created a draft of the script, read it aloud several times. Notice if it is easy to follow and has a clear conflict. Pay attention to how the dialogue sounds when read aloud. Make sure the dialogue is entertaining and explores character well. You should also read the script aloud to check for any spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors. To hear how the dialogue sounds, ask friends, peers, or family members to play different characters and read the dialogue aloud. This will help you get a better sense of how the dialogue sounds with different voices. Try running through the script at least once to listen to how it sounds. In script writing, this is called a “read through.” A read through is often done with the voice actors who are playing the characters to ensure the dialogue sounds right in their voice. Take one scene and have rough animation done to flesh it out. Then, watch it to confirm the scene is working and the script is effective on a visual level. You can do the animation yourself or hire an animator to bring your script to life. If you like the portion that has been animated, you can then get the rest of the script animated. Then, watch the animated cartoon from start to finish to ensure it is to your liking.
