Ask her out and see if she gives you an open-ended "no". Contact her and see how long it takes for her to respond. Watch if she shows you your competition.

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

This technique keeps you chasing that bit of hope she offers you. She might say she's not available, but is free on another day. She might say "no" but tell you about an interesting place she wants to see. Or she might not commit to a date, telling you to wait and see.  A rejection or flat out, definitive, "no" means she's not interested. She won't be offering you a rain check or be in contact with you again. Learn to give her space and when to stop. If you ask her out too many times or too often, you will become less attractive and look desperate. If it always takes her awhile to respond to your calls or texts, even just to say "hi", then she's probably playing hard to get. And when she does respond, she might make up an excuse about how incredibly busy she was. She'll say she was at a party or hanging out with someone. She's showing you that she's a busy girl and is not entirely dependent on spending time with you.  Her delayed responses should happen consistently and almost strategically. If she doesn't respond to you for days or makes up a weird excuse, it probably means she's not interested enough to respond back in time. Some girls just don't respond to texts or calls right away. Don't overanalyze this or get upset with her. If she's showing signs of being interested in you, take a breath and understand that people are often busy or forgetful. A girl playing hard to get, will want to look hard to get. It's her way of showing you she has many options to choose from and could be taken by someone else at any moment.  She might bring along some good-looking friends to a party to make you jealous. She'll tease you about people who have tried to hit on her, but failed. It may seem like she's ridiculing them, but she's really pointing out to you how attractive she is. If she talks about the people she's dating with you, then she's probably not interested and might just see you as a friend. Don't treat this as a failure but rather as the start of a blossoming friendship. However, not everyone can stay friends...


Ask her questions about her interests. Give her your undivided attention. Listen actively. Text her promptly. Let your sense of humor through.

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

Everyone wants to be made to feel comfortable and at ease with a potential partner, or date. If you want to put a girl at ease, get her talking. How? Ask her open-ended questions about her interests. Get to know her hopes and dreams, and her desires. Learn everything you can about her.  Look for open doors in things that she talks about. If she mentions off-hand that she hated watching the new Avengers movie, ask her what kind of movies she likes. If she says, "Horror" ask, "What do you like about those movies?" Keep her talking, and keep it positive. Ask open-ended questions always. Don't ask questions that have one-word, "yes or no" answers. When you're together, be together. Show her that she matters to you by putting away distractions when you're together. If you're looking over her shoulder and trying to eavesdrop on another conversation, or are distracted by your phone, she'll feel like second fiddle. If she's speaking in a group, direct your attention to her. Even if others are trying to talk over her, she'll appreciate that fact that you care about what she has to say. Making conversation involves connecting. To find common interests, you have to actually listen when she talks, respond to what she says, and give her the time of day. You can't just fake your way through a relationship. You have to really listen and get to know her. Make eye contact when she's talking. Nod your head when she says something you agree with. Summarize her points when she's talking and prompt her to say more. Be a good listener. Lots of guys have an idea that waiting to text, call, or email shows that you're "hard to get" and it makes you attractive. Really, it just makes it look like you watch too many rom-coms. Want to win a girl over? Text her when you notice that she's texted you. Respond to a call or an email when you see it. Don't try to put her on ice to show that you're cool. At the same time, it's important to avoid over-texting someone. If you see she hasn't responded right away to something that you've said,...


Ask her questions about herself. Let her see that you care about her. Don’t come on too strong. Do something nice for her. Show that her opinion matters to you. Find common ground.

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

One way to keep the girl’s attention is to show that you actually want to get to know her. You don’t want her to think that you’re only talking to her because you think she’s pretty or because you’re looking for a girlfriend. Take the time to get to know her by asking her questions about what her interests are, how her day is going, and whatever else is on her mind. Here are some things you can ask her about:  Her hobbies Her pets Her favorite bands, movies, TV shows, or actors Her friendships Her favorite places to visit Her holiday plans If you want to keep the girl’s attention, then you have to show her that you care without making her feel overwhelmed. If you want her to be interested in you, then she has to feel like she stands out to you. Work on giving her a little extra attention compared to the other girls around, and on spending more time by her side when you can. Smile at her and make eye contact when you see her so she knows that she stands out to you.  If she’s obviously having a bad day, come up to her and ask her what’s wrong. Let her see that you’re not just planning on being there during the good times. When you’re in a group or alone with her, flirt with her a little. Be playful, give her a gentle push on the arm or shoulder, and tease her in a friendly way. Take pleasure in making her laugh and let her see that you really do care without being too forward. You have to work on striking a balance between letting the girl see how much she means to you and not overwhelming her. You can’t be around all the time, call her every day, or be at her side every time she turns around, or she’ll want a break from you. Be around just enough to make things interesting while leaving her guessing and keeping her on her toes, too.  If you’re in a group setting, it’s nice to give her some extra attention, but that doesn’t mean you have to single her out too much, either. Talking to other girls will show that you’re less intense and open to being social with more people. If you have her number, you shouldn’t...


Ask her questions about herself. Seek out common interests. Show off your sense of humor. Maintain eye contact during your conversations. Smile at her.

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

A key part of making a connection is showing that you're interested in the other person. Keep things light at first, asking questions about her everyday life such as: What music does she listen to? Who is her favorite athlete? What does she like to do for fun? Remember that it should be a conversation, not an interrogation, so answer any questions she asks you or build on the things she says. Ask your crush about her hobbies or pastimes and take an interest in them. Many tomboys love showing off their skills, so ask to participate in things where she can take the lead. If she's interested in skateboarding, ask her to teach you some tricks. If she plays sports, see if you can shoot some hoops or throw a ball around together.  If you haven't tried one of her hobbies, give it a shot. If she loves golf, grab some clubs and hit a few balls. If she loves old movies, ask her for some recommendations. If your crush is an athlete or gamer, try making a bet about whether or not she can do something, like score 3 goals in a row or kill 10 enemies without taking damage. Making someone laugh is a great way to connect with them, and tomboys are typically more open to weird, crude, or off-color jokes than other girls. Try to discover what she finds funny and adjust your humor to match. If she laughs at a pun or loves a rude joke, try using more in the future. Many tomboys hate drama, so try to avoid making fun of specific people such as classmates or coworkers. Focus more on entertaining than insulting. Don't check your phone or constantly look around toward other people. Instead, keep your attention focused on her. This is the best way to convey that you're interested in what she's saying, and will help you build a stronger connection. Eye contact is important, but prolonged staring is intense and off-putting, so glance away every once in awhile. A genuine smile is one of the easiest ways to show interest in someone and make them feel comfortable. Try to keep the smile as genuine as possible. A forced smile is not...


Ask her what she’s up to and subtly suggest doing something together. Follow her lead when it comes to hanging out. Try being clear and direct. Take her at her word.

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

Casually proposing that the two of you do something together can remove some of the anxiety and worry you may feel about asking her outright about her feelings for you. For example, you can ask her what she is doing tonight or this weekend. If her plans are open or not fixed, you can share what you would like to do and ask her if she wants to go to along with you.  If she says she’s busy, it could mean she’s not interested but it could also mean she’s actually just busy. Ask her if there are any other days that she would be free to do something and see what she says. For example, you can ask: What are you doing this weekend?” If she says “Nothing” or “I was thinking of seeing a movie,” then you can say “I was planning on going to the movies, want to go together?” If a girl is texting you about a restaurant she really wants to try, a test she is worried about, a movie she would like to see, or some school event like a party or dance, she may want you to ask her about it. Follow-up on her conversation with a subtle invitation to do the things she is interested in, with you.  For example, if she has been talking about trying a new pizza place nearby, tell her you have also been wanting to try it and suggest that you go together. If there is a school event coming up that she has been texting you about, tell her you have been looking forward to it and see if she wants to go with you. Maybe she’s been texting with you about an upcoming exam in a class you both share. This is a great opportunity for you to suggest getting together to study for it. If all else fails and you still aren’t sure how a girl feels about you, you can always just ask her directly. If she is really into you, it’s unlikely she will say “no” if you ask her about it. Depending on how bold or certain of yourself you are feeling, you can let her know you like her first, and then ask her if she feels the same.   By making the first move, you are taking the pressure off, which she might appreciate, especially if she is shy. Be prepared for her to...


Ask him questions so you can get to know him. Share your knowledge and opinions to show him you’re smart. Give him a sincere compliment to make him feel good. Ask him for help with something so he feels needed.

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

People love talking about themselves, so he’ll get a big confidence boost if you show an interest in what he has to say. Get him talking by asking him questions. Then, listen to his response. Nod along as he talks and paraphrase what he said back to him.  You might ask, “What are your plans for the summer?” “What did you do last weekend?” or “What kind of music does your favorite band play?” If you're still in school, ask questions about your assignments, like "Which topic did you choose for the research project?" or "Are you going to the school play auditions this year?" Guys will be attracted to your intelligence, so don’t be afraid to speak your mind. Open up to him by telling him your ideas and opinions. Just keep things positive by not engaging in an argument.  Talk about the books you've read and current events. If you're in school, you might comment about the topics you're studying. You could say, "I think it's interesting that the book we're studying in English class relates to what we're studying in history class." It’s okay to disagree about things. Make peace by acknowledging the difference and changing the subject. If he has a different opinion than you, say, “It’s always interesting to hear someone else's take on things. Did you watch the game on Friday?” Look for reasons to compliment him whenever you’re around him. Tell him what you like about his look, his achievements, and his personality. This will show him that you notice him, which will draw his attention. You might say, “Your hair looks really cool today,” or “Awesome presentation this morning.” Everyone likes feeling needed, so asking for help is a great way to connect with someone. Plus, it gives you a reason to talk to him. Choose a small favor or task that you know he can help with. Then, ask if he’ll give you a hand.  Say, “Can you help me set up for the meeting today?” “Will you show me how to put this together,” or “Will you help me collect donations for the local animal shelter?" If you're still in school, ask him for help with an...


Ask him to do you a favor. Pay him a nice compliment and see how he reacts. Talk to him online.

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

Though shy guys will avoid actively pursuing whoever they’re interested in, they will often do things passively to show that they care. If he likes you, chances are he’ll be willing to take time out of whatever he’s doing to help you — sometimes over and over again. However, do not abuse your power over him. This is an especially cruel thing to do to a shy guy; in fact, maybe the reason he’s so shy in the first place is because he’s used to being treated badly.  Calmly and sweetly ask him to carry your books or your backpack for you to the next class. If you need an excuse (you don't, you can just ask him), tell him that your back is hurting you and you don't want to make it worse. Ask him to help you out with hard homework problems. If he's not great at math, don't ask him to help you out with geometry — it'll only make him more nervous. Find out what he's good at and ask him to explain something to you. Ask him to trade something yummy that he brought for lunch. Maybe he brought some jelly beans and you notice them in the cafeteria. Ask him for some jelly beans in return for a toffee apple or something sweet. If he grants your wish without hesitation, it's a good sign. The compliment doesn't have to be over the top — a "good job on your report" or "Hey, thanks for helping me with my math!" will do. You may find it hard to compliment him, especially if you're shy yourself, but this will go a long way toward making him feel more secure around you and letting you know if he likes you. The most important part to look for is his reaction:   He likes you reaction:  He stammers, clams up, or gets visibly embarrassed or even more shy He pays you back a compliment of his own, even if it's a little bit awkward    He doesn't like you reaction:  He doesn't seem phased or affected by the compliment at all He reacts with obvious displeasure or disappointment A lot of shy guys feel more comfortable writing from behind a screen than speaking face-to-face. Try to initiate a conversation with him on Facebook, Twitter or...


Ask how long they've been in business. Ask if they work alone or in a team. Ask about any planned vacations or other commitments. Ask about what other properties they've sold. Contact their recent clients. Make sure you get along with the agent.

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

When interviewing a real estate agent, one of the first questions to ask is how long they've been handling sales, contracts and negotiations for clients. They should be able to answer the question quickly and accurately. Remember, while five years of experience is ideal, someone with less experience who otherwise meets your needs may still work if you've developed a good rapport with them. Also, ask how long the agent's been working in your area. Even better, ask if they live near the area. An agent with extensive experience may not be the best choice if they are not familiar with your particular area. Agents who work alone are best if you want a lot of personal contact with the agent. Agents who work on a team are good if you like the idea of specialists for each step. The agent you hire may actually be a team leader who will then introduce you to a transaction coordinator, assistant, or buyer's agent who will handle those parts of the transaction. Agents who work alone are more likely to walk you through each step themselves and more likely to reach out frequently by phone or even in person. Real estate often requires quick action and response time. If a Realtor has a vacation planned soon or some other commitment that might interfere with their availability, you need to decide whether this will affect you buying or selling a property. Make sure they have someone to help you out if they will have an extended  absence. In addition to looking at current properties online, have the agent show you some of the other properties they've sold. Make sure these properties are similar to what you're looking to buy or sell. It's vital to pick an agent who works with the right properties for your needs. If the agent is typically used to working at a higher, or lower, price point, they may not understand your particular transaction as well. If you're selling a home, ask where the home will be featured. The main places you'll need to be is on the MLS and the big online sites (Realtor.com, Zillow, Trulia, etc...). Other...


Ask how people are doing. Tell others how you are doing. Ask people where they’re from.

Not only is it polite, it also allows you to show off more of the German you are learning!  Use the formal phrase "Wie geht es Ihnen?" (vee gate ess eenin), when asking strangers or acquaintances, “How are you?” Use the informal phrase "Wie geht es dir?" (vee gate ess deer) or simply “Wie geht’s?” (vee gates) (mainly children)to ask someone you know well, or a child, "How are you?" Generally speaking, to be polite use the formal version with someone you don’t know, unless they begin using the informal with you. This is especially the case in settings involving areas like business, education, and government. If someone asks, you can respond to the question “Wie geht es Ihnen?” or “Wie geht’s” in a variety of ways.  You could simply say: “Gut” (“goot”), “good”; “Sehr gut” (“zair goot”), “very good”; or “Schlecht” (“shle-cht”), “bad.” However, a more extensive response is more polite. You can say “Mir geht es…” (“mere gate es…”), followed by “gut,” “sehr gut,” or “schlecht” to mean “I am doing…” “well,” “very well” or “bad,” respectively. A good conversation starter is to ask people about their backgrounds. Try these questions, using the formal / informal version as appropriate:  “Woher Kommen Sie?” (“Voh-hair co-men zee?”) / “Woher kommst du?” (“Voh-hair comst do?”) = “Where are you from?” “Ich komme aus [insert place name]” (“Ich come-uh ow-s”) = “I am from [insert place name]”. For example, “Ich komme aus den USA” (Ich come-uh ow-s dane oo ess ah), “I am from the United States.” “Wo wohnen Sie?” (“Voh voh-nen zee?”) / “Wo wohnst du?” (“Voh voh-nst do?”) = “Where do you live?” (in the sense of “Which country, state, or city, etc. do you reside right now?” “Ich wohne in [insert place name]” (“Ich voh-nuh in”) = “I live in [insert place name].” For example, “Ich wohne in Chicago.”


Ask how you can help. Anticipate unspoken needs. Genuinely listen. Think before you respond Keep your friend focused on the bigger issue. Give your two cents and then stop talking.

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

Want to know if you can be of some assistance? Ask. The best way to figure out quickly and efficiently if and what you can do to help out is to just ask, flat-out. See your dad struggling with a lawnmower? "Hey Dad, need a hand?" See your friend looking down in the dumps after being embarrassed in gym class? "Hey man, sorry about that. Want to talk about it?" Sometimes offering to help without asking can hurt someone's feelings, if they were confident about their ability to do it alone. Pay attention to the signs other people are giving you to find out how to help without having to be asked. Think about the ways you might want to ask for help, then apply that to other people. For example, when you're cooking it's nice to have one person chop vegetables while the other person makes the sauce, making the whole operation faster.  If you see a friend drilling math problems with flashcards, offer to help test. If you see someone struggling to carry too many bags, you probably don't have to ask to know they could use a hand. If you see your flatmate tidying up, join in so you can both relax more quickly. Put away your phone, and give the person you're helping your full attention. Really listen to the person and evaluate the situation as objectively as possible. Digging deeper, asking questions and staying engaged in the person's issues will make you the most helpful presence possible. Don't look for the easy help, look for the real help.  Do not give advice before asking them how they feel, or how they want to respond to a situation. One of the best things to ask someone who has come to you for help is to ask them how they feel about the situation, and what they think the best thing to do is. Then offer you opinion, not get upset if they do not take your advice. . This sounds easy, but is a challenge for most people who wish to interject or offer advice too quickly. Offering an open ear with patience and without judgement is more than most people expect and what most people really need.  Let them vent while you...


Ask if she has any more questions. Emphasize she needs to be tested. Practice safe sex.

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

In the time she's had to think, she may have more questions. Check back in with her within a day or so. She's also had time to research the disease herself. See if she has anything else she wants to ask you. Even if she needs space, you need to emphasize the fact that she needs to get tested. Encourage her to do so when you first talk, but don't be afraid to ask her if she's done so the next time you talk to her. Now that you have an STD, you need to practice safer sex while you still have it. You may want to abstain from vaginal and anal sex altogether if you're having a flare up. You can also use a condom or dental dams to practice safer sex. In place of vaginal and anal sex, you can kiss, fondle, and use sex toys, as long as you don't pass them back and forth.


Ask if something's wrong. Point out changes in his behavior. Ask point blank. Trust your gut.

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

You don't necessarily have to accuse your boyfriend of cheating, but tell him that you feel like something is off with him. Being unable to communicate with your partner can cause significant problems in a relationship, so it's best to just confront the issue directly.  Make sure to choose a time to talk with your boyfriend when you know you won't be interrupted. If you want to have a serious, honest conversation, neither of you should be taking phone calls or answering texts.  Try to stay as calm as possible. If you immediately put your boyfriend on the defensive, you're probably not going to get any real answers. Remember that your goal is a conversation, not a confrontation. You don't want to come across as irrational or paranoid, so it helps to cite the specific evidence that's led you to suspect him, even if it's just the fact that he's stopped calling you pet names or always takes his phone into the bathroom. For the best results, you should be as non-judgemental as possible when you're laying out the reasons that you've come to suspect your boyfriend of cheating, so try to start your sentences with “I” and not “you.” For example, you might say, “I feel like we're growing apart and I'm upset about it.” That can make your boyfriend more likely to listen to what you have to say. If explaining the changes in your boyfriend's behavior that concern you doesn't lead to the topic coming up, you may want to just ask him directly if he's cheating. You're probably going to be angry and upset, but don't resort to name calling or physical violence. The calmer you stay, the more likely you are to get a straight answer from your boyfriend. Give you boyfriend a chance to answer your questions. Don't yell at him or assume you know what he's going to say. He may have an explanation for his actions that will relieve your fears. Unless you have ironclad proof that he's cheating, your boyfriend is most likely going to deny whatever accusations you level at him. In that situation, you have to listen to your instincts. If...


Ask if they are truly thinking about hurting themself. Find out if they have a plan and/or the means to carry out the threat. Understand that you are not a mental health professional. Get help.

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

It's scary to come right out and ask, but you should do it. The most important thing you can do for your parent is to let them know that you hear the pain. Knowing that he is actually being heard and taken seriously can be the first step to recovery. Kindly and gently say something along the lines of, "Dad, it really hurts me to see you in such pain.  When you said 'I feel like killing myself,' did you really mean that?" If Dad says, "I was just so frustrated... but I'm fine now" that means you can probably exhale. It does not mean he won't feel worse later, but it does mean he wasn't serious. Continue to monitor him in the coming weeks, and it is okay to ask periodically if he is thinking about suicide. If Dad says something along the lines of, "I'm just tired of everything," or "I'm tired of living, I'd be better off dead", that is much more serious. This may seem like something you should avoid asking, but nevertheless, this is not a time to get shy or nervous — a life is at stake. If Mom or Dad is "tired of everything," ask, "If you seriously were to kill yourself, how would you do so?"  Again, you are trying to assess how lethal the intention is.  If Dad says, "I'd probably use my gun," it is absolutely necessary that you figure out where the gun is. If it's locked in a gun box or locker, you should take possession of the key. If it's in the nightstand drawer, you could go and hide it elsewhere. However, that is a serious threat, no matter how you cut it because Dad (A) has a plan (a gun) and (B) has the means (the gun) to carry out the threat. Remove the gun from the house, then call the emergency services or take your dad to the nearest emergency room for psychological evaluation and referral for treatment. On the other hand, if Dad responds with something like, "Oh, I don't know.  Maybe pills?  Something painless?" this is a less credible threat, but regardless, it should still be taken very seriously. You can press a little and ask what sort of pills. A response like, "Tylenol — lots of it. We have a...


Ask kindly and patiently. Give them specifics. Remind them that they have allowed piercings before. Highlight your accomplishments. Explain that it’s not permanent. Be willing to wait.

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

Simply ask your parents for what you want, explaining why piercings are important to you. Let them know whatever is involved, like a parent signature. Listen to their questions, and respond calmly with all the information you have. You can say: “Mom, Dad, I want to get another ear piercing. It’s my favorite way to express myself, and I’d really like your permission to get it done.” Let your parents know the exact type and placement of the ear piercing you want. There are a lot of different types of ear piercings like tragus, rook and helix; show your parents you’ve researched and thought a lot about the placement and jewelry you can wear for it.  For example, you can say: “I would really like a helix piercing, which is at the top cartilage part of the ear. There’s a store at the mall that I know has jewelry for this kind of piercing.” If you know of any online stores with the jewelry you want for the piercing, show them to your parents. You can also show them a diagram of ear piercing placement to help them visualize what the piercing would be like on your ear or ears. Point out that your parents have given their permission for your previous ear piercings and this one will be no different. If you’ve gotten your earlobes pierced once, for example, you can explain that a second lobe piercing is essentially the same thing, with the same method for piercing and same healing time. Remind your parents if you have been focusing on and getting good grades in school, trying new activities and extracurriculars, or helping out around the house.  You can also ask for the piercing as an incentive to good behavior in the future. Agree with your parents on a goal they’d like you to reach before you can get the piercing. If you have a birthday or other gift-giving holiday coming up, you can say that the ear piercing you want is at the top of your wish list for gifts. Let your parents know that you plan to keep this piercing forever. But if they’re concerned about the permanent nature of piercings, point out to them that...


Ask nicely and show gratitude. Show them your written argument or contract. Talk through their concerns. Discuss the cost and consider a payment plan. Agree on limits. Be willing to wait.

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

Talk to your parents in a calm, patient, and respectful manner when you bring up the subject of wanting a laptop. Make sure to explain why you want one, what you're willing to do to get it, and how much you would appreciate their help in buying it. Try asking like this: “Hey Mom and Dad, I'd really like to get a laptop of my own. I know I don't have enough to pay for all of it right now, and I was hoping you could help me out and give me your permission to get one. I really appreciate the things you've bought or helped me buy in the past, and I think this will be something that's useful to me and worth the money." Offer your parents the research and reasoning you've written out. Give them time to look it over and discuss any questions or comments they have about it. If you've created a contract or agreement, you can have them make edits or additions and tell them you can all sign it when you're in agreement, to make it official. Listen carefully to the reasons they might have for hesitating or being unwilling to buy you a laptop. Avoid reacting with anger, whining, or impatience, because they will be even less likely to agree or even talk about it with you. If their concern is the cost, talk to them about paying for part of it or paying them back over time. If they think you're not old enough to have your own laptop, mention a friend your age who has one. Show that you understand that a laptop is an expensive investment, and you're willing to pay for part of it, if you have the money, or pay them back for all or part of it over time. Use money from an allowance or job, or discuss other ways that you could earn money and pay your parents back if possible. Try offering to match funds with your parents if you have some money saved. You can say, “I only have [x amount of money]. If I contributed that, would you be willing to pay the rest?” Discuss with your parents any limits they may want to put in place if you do have your own laptop, like where you can use it, how long you can be on it, and what you can do on...


Ask open ended questions. Only send one message at a time. Flirt/Tease a little. Keep the conversation focused on her. Be gracious and leave her wanting more.

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

Now that you've started a dialogue, it's time to keep the conversation going. Avoid yes or no questions. Open ended questions specific to her, will encourage her to become engaged in the conversation. Find shared interests through online profiles and expand your conversation around common ground.  Ask “What types of outdoor activities do you enjoy?” instead of “Do you like sports?” Build common ground with things like, “I got a dog in college, what animals are your favorites? Avoid seeming spammy by limiting your responses to one message for each one received. This is a way to encourage the conversation to move forward so that she wants to keep talking to you. Give her a compliment focused on part of the conversation or her personality. It is OK to have some fun with your conversation and show your sense of humor.  "Talking with you has been one of the best parts of my day." "Just when I thought everyone online was fake, I meet you." NOTE: Avoid complimenting physical appearances at this point. Phrases like “You’re hot” or “sexy” may seem like a good idea, but they give the impression that you are shallow and only care about looks. Use the information you have learned as the conversation develops to build the base of a fun relationship. Find common interests that you can relate to and share personal experiences. Do not dominate the conversation by making it about you, but keep her involved by showing you are interested in the same things she is. Express your happiness that you had the opportunity to talk with her. Let her know that you want to talk again by casually creating the opportunity to talk again. Try these lines and you can create an opening:  "This has been awesome. I hope we can talk again soon!" "You mentioned (pick something from your conversation), I wanted to email you an article I found. What's your email address?" "I gotta go, but I really want to hear more about _______, will you email me a link to your favorite site? My email is ______________."


Ask open questions. Find common ground. Remark on the moment. Comment on something she has. Compliment her in unique, genuine ways. Look past the surface. Be yourself.

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

Opening with a question can work out well, but you should stick with open questions rather than asking closed ones. Closed questions can be answered with a “yes” or “no,” but open questions require a more detailed reply. As such, open questions can lead into conversation more easily. For example, you might try asking about her name. If it's an uncommon name, you could ask about the name itself: “Isla is a lovely name. Do you know what its origins are or what it means?” If it's a common name, you'll have to make the question more personal: "I've always liked the name Rachel. Were you named after anyone, or do your parents just have really great taste in names?" Note that in both examples, the remark opens with a compliment before leading into the question. This isn't strictly necessary, but using both a compliment and a question often creates a more powerful opening line. Figure out if you have anything in common with this girl, even if it's something relatively small and inconsequential. Remarking on this common interest creates an immediate connection, which could put her on friendly terms with you.  If you have any shared friends on Facebook, you could use that shared connection to start the conversation. For example: “I noticed you're friends with Alex. How did the two of you meet? I've known him since I was kid, and we even grew up in the same neighborhood.” Similarly, if you know the girl in real life, you could use your shared experiences in reality. For instance: “You're in Mrs. Smith's fifth period algebra class, right? I'm in her eighth period class. What do you think of her class?” Recent events provide a shortcut to common ground since they impact or interest a wide range of people. Try to narrow down your topic to something happening on a local level, though, and zero in on something she might actually have an interest in.  If possible, narrow it down to something happening in your most intimately shared community. If she lives on the other side of the state, talk to her about something happening...


Ask open-ended questions. Ask about his interests. Be direct. Make subtle physical contact if you like him.

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

These kinds of questions can help a shy guy open up and talk about himself and can also lead to him feeling known, liked and comfortable with you. Avoid asking questions that can be answered with a quick “yes” or “no” because these may create awkward pauses and make the conversation feel forced. Good examples of open-ended questions include:  "How did you get interested in carpentry?" "What brought you to live in San Francisco?" When you ask about all of his favorite things, such as sports, movies, books, and more, you’re showing him that you’re interested in getting to know him better. Once you’ve talked a bit about each other's likes and dislikes, you’ll most likely find some commonalities that you can discuss further and bond over. Make sure to show interest in him and not just his role or activities. Hobbies and interests are good, neutral places to start, but when you're both ready, be sure to look deeper. If you hang out together, make sure to tell him you’d like to see him again when you part ways. Verbal clarity will make him more sure of your feelings and desires, which will ease his uncertainty and draw him out of his shell. Also, pay attention to his reactions when you say things that directly communicate your interest in him. If he smiles or agrees enthusiastically, you can assume that he may be interested in you too. Making physical contact releases oxytocin, the bonding hormone, so initiating touch may quickly start making him feel liked and close to you. Touching him breaks through a kind of barrier that may lead him to feel less nervous or unsure about holding your hand or putting his arm around you later on.  Ask permission first, and make sure he's open to that sort of attention and affection. Try lightly and briefly touching the outside of his arm to communicate assurance while you’re having a conversation with him. If you aren’t interested in him romantically, be cautious with physical contact. Giving him frequent hugs, for example, may seem friendly to you but he may interpret it as a...


Ask open-ended questions. Ask the other person to tell you about something. Ask questions when the other person shares things about themselves. Ask the other person if they need your help.

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

Open-ended questions are questions that require responses other than “yes” or “no.” Text the other person an open-ended question and build the conversation off of their answer. For example, you could ask the other person “What would your dream vacation be?” or “What do you like to do for fun?”er.com/how-to-keep-a-conversation-going-2011-1</ref> You could ask about anything; their favorite movie, their favorite restaurant, their job, their pets, etc. Don’t just let the conversation end after they give you an answer; let their answer be a jumping off point for the rest of your chat. For example, you could text them something like “Tell me about your new job, are you liking it?” or “Tell me more about your trip to Hawaii, I bet it was amazing.” Instead of moving on with the conversation, ask the other person to elaborate or ask them why they feel the way they do about something. Asking questions will show that you’re reading what the other person is saying and making an effort to engage with them. For example, if the other person says they’re dreading going to work tomorrow, you could ask them “Why don’t you want to go? Do you not like your job?” If the person you’re texting is complaining about something that’s bothering them or talking about how stressed they are, offer to help them. The other person will be more interested in continuing the conversation if they feel like you care. For example, if the other person is telling you about how they're fighting with their family, you could reply something like "That's terrible, I'm sorry. Is there anything I can do to help?"


Ask other babysitters you know what they charge. Use an online rate calculator. Ask parents you know what they pay for babysitters. Look up what the minimum wage is in your area.

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

If you know anybody else who babysits, ask them what they charge. Once you have multiple opinions, you can see what the average is. Since they live in your area, they’ll know what a reasonable rate is for where you live. Different areas have very different rates, depending on what people’s average income is.  Ask a fellow babysitter, “I’m a new babysitter and am trying to figure out what to charge. I was wondering how much you charge per hour?” Major cities and their suburbs generally pay higher rates than small towns. In New York City and L.A., sitters charge about $20 an hour, while in Houston and Chicago they charge $15. The internet has a lot of babysitting rate calculators that allow you to put in your zip code and how many years of babysitting experience you have. It will calculate the average rate. One example is https://www.care.com/babysitting-rates. Ask trusted adults in your area how much they pay their babysitters. This will help you get an idea of how much people are willing to pay. Once you have an idea, propose it to your client, and see if they think it’s fair.  Keep in mind that parents will pay more per hour for a qualified nanny than for a teenage babysitter.  Parents will also pay differently for full-time babysitting than for occasional nights or weekends. Too many babysitters settle for less than minimum wage because they’re not sure what it is, or because the job is less official than jobs that require work permits. Counties and cities calculate the minimum wage based on what they think is a fair amount to give someone for an hour of their time, so you should charge at least that. If you’re underage to work at a regular job or are undocumented, you should still ask for the minimum wage. You deserve to be paid fairly.


Ask other people questions about themselves. Have a hobby or try a sport. Be friendly and warm. Laugh at yourself sometimes. Avoid beginning any sentence with the word “actually” or “obviously.

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

Be sure to discuss things other than schoolwork. Outside of the classroom or study sessions, relate to people about topics that interest everyone involved. If you don't know how to start a conversation, it is always okay to ask others questions about themselves. For instance, you could ask them what they did over the weekend, or ask their opinion about a movie you haven't seen yet. Know-it-alls are often that way because they want to be defined as the smartest person in the room. A club, sport, or hobby will give you something more to focus on than just being the smartest. It will also give you something to talk to people about. Know-it-alls are often so fiercely competitive at trying to be the smartest that they can be selfish and even sometimes rude. Smile and make eye contact with people when you pass them in the hallway. Ask them how they are doing, and listen to the answer with your full attention. Like admitting mistakes, being able to laugh at yourself requires you to be able to gracefully accept a shortcoming or minor falter. Maybe you just found out you have been mispronouncing a word or song lyric for years—no one will think less of you for this, but they may find it funny. Learn to relax and laugh with them. ” The first just sounds condescending and argumentative. “Obviously” makes it sound like everyone should already know the thing you're saying, and can make people feel bad. Definitely pay attention to how you talk to people, and be careful with these two words.


Ask others to help you decorate the space. Put up the decorations ahead of time. Arrange the food and drinks. Greet guests as they arrive. Check on your guests throughout the party.

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

Setting up for the party can be a lot for you to do on your own, especially if you are hosting a lot of people. Ask friends and family to help you decorate the space the day of the party, or the night before. Get a few extra hands to make it easier for you to decorate the space. Set up the wall decorations and the table decorations the night before the party or several hours before the start time. Arrange the food and drink tables ahead of time in the venue so you know how the room is going to be laid out for the party. You should also set up the food and drinks before the party gets started. Prep the food and put it in the fridge so you can pull it out and serve it easily during the party. Have all the ingredients for the drinks on hand. Make sure you have a lot of ice for the drinks, especially if you are preparing custom cocktails over ice. Throw on your best 20s style outfit and stand at the door to greet your guests as they arrive. Offer them a glass of champagne or a cocktail. Make sure they know where the food is located. Encourage guests to play games or dance to the themed music.  Keep the mood of the party upbeat and lively, just like how the Great Gatsby parties were known to be. Be a good host by checking in with your guests as the party rages on. Make sure everyone has access to enough food and drinks. Check that the bar is stocked and the band (or your playlist) is entertaining. If you have games like a casino table, check in to ensure they are running smoothly.


Ask people about their perspective. Put yourself in their shoes. Control your words and body language. Be polite in your responses. Express your perspective as opinion, not fact. Don't take the disagreement personally.

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

Before being honest about how you feel its important to know their perspective. This gives you a chance to show genuine interest and have a conversation. This may also give you opportunities to speak up and be honest. They may even end their explanation with a request to hear your perspective. One of the simplest ways to avoid hurting feelings is to imagine how they will respond to your statements. If they said that to you, would you be upset? Practice imagining how they view their own opinion and yours. Just because their perspective is different doesn't mean its wrong. Be careful with your honesty. You want to speak the truth in kindness. That means avoiding overtly disapproving behaviors such as grimacing or making fun of their ideas. Sometimes you may not know your tone of voice is broadcasting disapproval. This can be difficult to change. Your vocal tone is often subconsciously created. Try to speak in a neutral tone resisting the urge to let your feelings and emotions show true in your voice. You may think this disingenuous but once you speak your opinion, its not necessary to convey disapproval non-verbally too. Whenever you try to avoid hurting others it is best to speak with kindness. Common gestures of kindness (i.e., politeness) go a long way. They convey respect and show you value the other person. This situation isn't all about you speaking your mind. Its about them feeling valued. Even if you know the facts back you up, this shows you value their perspective. If they have an open mind, facts will change their perspective. If they do not have an open mind, facts will feel like personal attacks. They have a right to be incorrect. Let them come to the truth on their own terms, not yours. Forcing your perspective is an easy way to hurt feelings.  Don't criticize or condemn. This may seem difficult but is important. Speak your truth in a way that doesn't put their perspective down. Statements like "You're wrong there" and "I can't believe you think that" are to be avoided. Instead, agree with them...


Ask people for recommendations. Take a class. Go to the library. Use other forms of media. Listen to the radio.

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

Though many of us turn to the Internet for nearly all of our research, real world recommendations can be just as rewarding. We all have at least one or two people in our lives who have similar music tastes to us and so you should always look to these people as a resource.  If you know any music experts, be sure to seek their guidance. If they are knowledgeable about the area of music you are interested in, tell them who your favorites are and write down any suggestions they have. They will likely be able to steer you in the right direction based on your current tastes. Ask your friends what they listen to. In all likelihood, your friends will have similar taste in music to yours, and the recommendations they give will be helpful. If you are serious about rock n roll or jazz, you may want to take your music appreciation to the next level by taking a class. You can enroll in online classes or community college classes. This may be a good option if there is one genre you are a die-hard fan of as you are sure to not only find new music, but come away from the experience with a deepened knowledge of and appreciation for that particular style of music. Libraries are still an incredibly useful resource for finding new music, especially if your access to the Internet is limited. Public libraries tend to have CDs and sometimes other music formats as well. Libraries can also be a resource if you are interested in doing more in depth research about music. You could ask as a librarian for books about the musical styles you like and read up on the history and influences of your favorite artists. Exploring other art forms, such as reading books and watching documentaries about the artists and music genres you like can be a great way to learn more about the music influences and related or significant artists. When doing this, it is helpful to keep a notebook handy to jot down notes and look up the artists to listen to their songs later. Many stations just play the most current songs or the Top 40, but there are also...


Ask people to use your preferred pronouns. Change your name if you want to. Alter your grooming and clothing to be more masculine if you want to.

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

One of the first steps of your transition can be letting people know the gender you identify with. Pronouns are important because they let people know how you like to be referred to.  When you meet a new person, you can say, “Hi! I'm Taylor, and I'd love it if you could use he/him when you're referring to me.” You can gently correct people who use an incorrect program. Try saying, “Can you please either say he, him or just use my name? Thanks so much.” Everyone chooses to transition differently. Remember that you can make whatever choices you want. If you want to change your name, you can do so legally or just socially. You can start slowly by just asking friends and family to call you by your new name. You can say, “I know you know me as Sara, but I’m going by Sam now.” You can also further your transition by changing your appearance. You might want to try a short haircut, for instance. You can also start shopping in the men’s section for your clothing and shoes. You could try wearing something like jeans and a blazer when you go out for the evening. Remember, what's most important is that you feel comfortable.


Ask people you know for a recommendation. Look online. Call a health care organization for a referral. Make sure they take your health care plan.

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

Friends, family, co-workers and neighbors are great resources when you need to find a service care provider. You might also ask your doctor or pharmacist.    Good questions to ask include: What they like about the dentist and/or office?  Is there anything they don't like about it? Ask how long they typically wait, and how available the dentist is for questions or emergencies. Find a dentist near you who is a member of the American Dental Association by visiting their website.  You can also find dentists through the online yellow pages and other advertising sites.  The Internet is the cheapest way to find a good dentist. Be wary of any advertising that claims a dentist's service is “superior” to others'.  This is considered unethical in most states. Your health insurance provider can likely provide a list of dentists participating in their coverage.  You can also call faculty members at a dental school, if there is one near you, or a local hospital to see if they have an accredited dental service.  You can also call the Academy of General Dentistry's referral line—1-877-2XA-YEAR.   Call your state dental society and ask for a list of recommendations. These associations can provide a list of ADA member dentists.  The health care organization will provide you with some good references that you can consider. If you have dental insurance, be sure to ask any prospective dentists if they accept your plan.  Many smaller companies have a limited number of participating dentists, and dental work can be extremely expensive.


Ask permission if you're with a new sexual partner. Remove your partner's clothing slowly. Rip off the belt. Trap your partner's arms in a T-shirt. Pull off men's trousers sneakily. Remove any item of clothing with your teeth. Don't struggle with a bra for more than a few seconds.

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

If you've not yet had sex with the other person, don't make any assumptions. Even if she is interested in having sex tonight, she'll be more comfortable and likely to do so if she can set the pace her clothes are removed. If pausing to ask a question every few minutes feels too awkward, try holding a button, zipper, or bra strap, then looking at your partner with a raised eyebrow and questioning look instead. Nothing kills the mood like your partner punching you in the face because he yanked your shirt too hard. When you're stripping the clothes from another person, do it slowly and sensuously. Take some time between each item of clothing to kiss your partner's newly exposed skin, or run your hands along his or her body. Grab both ends of the belt, then unbuckle and tug them off in one motion. It's fine if you take a couple tugs to get this right. Try this while reaching from behind, if you're feeling extra skilled. Pull up the lower hem of the T-shirt until the shirt is pulled partly over your partner's arms, but the collar is still around the neck. Hold your partner playfully in this position while you kiss or nibble his skin, before tugging it off the rest of the way. Distract your partner by making out, while you unbutton or unzip his pants and pull them down. Use your foot to pull them the rest of the way. If you're distracting enough, he may not notice what you're doing until the trousers fall at his feet. This probably won't work on women's trousers, since they tend to be more difficult to remove. This often takes a few attempts, so it's best attempted when you're feeling confident, or when you and your partner are in a silly mood. With enough effort, even buttoned shirts can come off, but avoid hurting your teeth on metal zippers. Bras are infamously difficult for men to remove, although it's not difficult if you learn how. If you haven't figured it out after a few seconds, just stop and let her do it.


Ask personal questions, including ones about where they claim to be from. Ask to see a photo with their face clearly visible and their username written on a piece of paper or their hand. See if they're hesitant to give their phone number.

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

Scammers do not like to answer personal questions about themselves and will often misspell the cities they say they are from. If they are unfamiliar with any of the local landmarks and attractions, this is another sign. If they claim to be from a foreign country, steer clear immediately, no matter how charming they are. At the very least, it will show you that they are the person in the picture. Even better, video chat with them if they have a webcam. It does not, however, mean that everything they say is the truth. Services like Chatroulette can be manipulated to show a photo of, say, celebrities, instead of their real selves. Early on if the relationship is getting 'established' it is not strange to ask your "friend" for a phone number or address where you can call spontaneously. Marrieds have to worry about spouses or children intercepting the call/visit. This will put most marrieds off quickly. As well, phone numbers and addresses are easily reverse engineered. Modern people finding sites can tell you if a 50 year old John Doe has ever resided at that address in their lives! If someone lives in Denver, Colorado, why do you need a country code for an African nation?


Ask probing questions. Test your hypotheses with your own observations. See your ideas all the way through to completion. Build new concepts from a foundation of failures.

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

Sometimes the simplest questions are the most complex. How does a bird fly? Why is the sky blue? These are the kinds of questions that drove Leonardo Da Vinci to his innovative genius and scientific study. It was insufficient for Da Vinci to hear "Because God wills it," when the answer was much more complicated and much less abstract. Learn to form probing questions about the things that interest you and test them to obtain results.  Exercise: Write down at least five questions about a subject that fascinates you, and that you'd like to know more about. Instead of doing a cursory wikipedia search of the topic and then forgetting the matter completely, select a single question from that list and sit with it for at least a week. How do mushrooms grow? What is coral? What is a soul? Research it at the library. Write about it. Draw about it. Think about it. When you've started to form your own opinion about a particular topic or question, when you think you're getting close to a satisfactory answer, determine what criteria would be sufficient to either accept or reject that answer. What would prove you were right? What would prove you were wrong? How can you test your idea?  Exercise: Come up with a testable theory for your probing question and set up an examination, using the scientific method. Gather some substrate and grow your own mushrooms to learn more about different methods, techniques, and varieties. The scientific thinker interrogates ideas until all avenues of thought have been prodded at, examined, verified, or rejected. Leave no avenue of inquiry untouched. Regular thinkers often get attached to one of the first pleasing options or answers, ignoring the more interesting or complicated questions that might be more accurate. If you want to think like Leonardo Da Vinci, leave no stone unturned in your search for truth.  Exercise: Practice mind mapping. A powerful tool that can help you combine logic and imagination in your work and life, the end result of mapping should be a web-like structure of words...

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

often. Asking questions and questioning everything around us constantly is what makes us smarter. There's nothing wrong with not knowing the whys or the hows! Everybody has something that they don't know. But by developing a healthy habit about asking when you don't know something, you'll find yourself getting smarter and smarter. once a week. Ask yourself during each goal-setting session, how many of last week's goals did I achieve? Why didn't I accomplish some of my goals and what can I do to give myself a greater chance of success?  Constantly work hard to achieve each of your goals. Without goals, you would have nothing to hope for. Reward yourself after accomplishing your goal.  Be organized. You don't need to be a total neat freak, but wasting time is not smart. Of course, many geniuses are completely disorganized (think of the absent-minded professor) but if you're making an active effort to be smart, taking a conscious approach to how you spend your time is a big step in the right direction. to education. Educating yourself takes time, and if you want to get smarter it is going to require effort. Don’t expect it to happen overnight. You need to spend a lot of time actively thinking and learning if you want to really be smart. There are many sources of information out there. For example, books, documentaries, and the internet. School is just one source of information. If you have straight A's, that doesn't mean that you are smart. Exercising an open mind will make you more intelligent and constantly learning will help you get there.


Ask questions about his or her interests, hobbies, or work. Be an active listener in your conversation. Show him or her that you are enjoying yourself in conversation. Make a plan to hang out again, and/or get his or her number. Bring the conversation back to something you already talked about. End the conversation on a good note.

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

Once you have established a good connection with your crush, you should start trying to get to know him or her better. Start with something that he or she has mentioned or that you have observed in your interactions. For example, “I see you have some books with you, what are you reading?” This is a low pressure question that lets your crush know you are interested in him or her. Then ask follow up questions.  For example, if he or she is excited to talk about the books, ask more questions/make connections related to the books. For example, “That is cool that you are reading that book. My favorite book by that author is ______.” Or, if he or she doesn't seem too excited about his or her books, you can move onto something else more open ended. Say something like, “So what else are you up to this week?”. Avoid bring up topics of conversation that show that you already know about your crushes’ interests because that might make you feel awkward. For example, if you know he plays soccer, avoid bringing that up directly. Don’t say “So tell me about your soccer season.” Instead, let the conversation get there naturally. Your crush will enjoy him/herself in a conversation with you much more if you are a good listener. Once you have started conversation, you should be face to face or in a listening position where you hear and see his or her face easily. Another key part of active listening is making consistent (but not constant) eye contact during your conversation.  Avoid distractions. Don’t send a text or look at your phone while you talk. This will make it seem like you are disinterested and might keep you from really hearing what your crush is saying. Repeat the main idea of what your crush is saying. This will let him or her know that you are listening and will give him or her the chance to clarify anything. Repeat the most meaningful parts of what he or she is saying. For example, you can say “So are you saying that you are new to painting but it feels like you have been doing it forever?”. This will help him or...


Ask questions and conduct research about the company. Seek references if the company is not well known. Learn details about the job and pay. Know where your work is going and who will be viewing your work. Understand pay, pay schedule and process.

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

As mentioned previously, do your homework on the company and ask for clarification of anything you do not understand or would like to have explained further. If the business and job posting is legitimate, your contact will be happy to answer your questions. If you can’t find much information online about the company, or you simply feel like something is slightly off, ask your contact for references. These professional references should be able to vouch for the company you are applying to. Ask for the reference’s name, company, number and email address. Once you have this information, you can research the person and company to ensure they are legitimate.These references could include:  Vendors who has worked with the company. Partners of the company. Customers. Know what you are getting into. Ask about the supervisor or manager, what the job duties are, and anything else you wish to know before going further in the interview process. If you find that the company doesn’t sound like it would be a good fit for you, or you feel like something is off about the company, stop the application process. If you are writing an article or report, ask where your writing will be posted and/or who the readers are. If you are conducting research, ask who will be reviewing this research, what the higher purpose is and if or where this will be available for people to view. It is important to know what the purpose of your writing is. If you are writing a pro-chocolate report and find out your article is going to published as the sensationalist views of a chocolate-lover in an anti-chocolate magazine, you might want to think twice before sending in your article. Know how much and when you will get paid. Avoid any jobs that offer an over-the-top amount or ‘too good to be true’ promises, since they are most likely not true. Researching the going rate for the job you are applying for will help you to spot empty promises.


Ask questions as often as you need to understand. Participate in group discussions to help you pay attention. Talk to your teacher after class for one-on-one help.

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

While asking questions in class can be intimidating, it can be the best way to help you stay focused and understand the material that is confusing you. Remember that it is your teacher’s job to answer your questions, so they will more than likely be happy to pause for a minute and help you understand. Confusion is a part of learning, so in many cases, if you are confused, chances are someone else is too. By asking questions, you will likely help someone else better understand the material as well. If there are opportunities for group discussion in your class, participate as much as you can. This will keep you engaged in the present, help you avoid distractions, and give you the opportunity to work through your confusion out loud with your teacher and peers. In some cases, the fear of speaking up may keep you from asking questions, so you may continue to be confused and, at times, lose focus. If you have anxiety about speaking up in class, try talking to your teacher outside of class and ask them to clarify the points that confuse you. It may be helpful for you to talk to your teacher before class as well, and let them know that you have anxiety about asking questions in class. Your teacher may be able to anticipate some of the potentially confusing parts of class and better clarify, or create less stressful situations for students to ask questions, like small group work.


Ask questions to encourage moral reasoning. Tell stories from your past. Listen and encourage questions. Incorporate values into daily conversation. Avoid lecturing.

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

When you talk to your kids about values, ask them questions that really make them think about the topic. Try to use everyday situations to engage them and show them how values can be relevant. Don't frame things in terms of definitive “right” and “wrong.” Instead, let your child use the values that you have taught them to come to these conclusions on their own.  For example, instead of saying, "You should not have lied to his friends like that," ask, "Do you think what you did is wrong? Why?” Asking your kids these types of questions throughout the course of a day can trigger a conversation about values. The conclusions they draw themselves are more likely to last longer than conclusions drawn for them. Talk about what life was like for you when you were the same relative age as your kids. Discuss the difficulties and triumphs you had in developing your current value system.  Make sure that the stories you tell are true and avoid exaggerating any details. For example, try telling your child about a time when you were tempted to cheat on a school assignment. If you resisted the temptation, explain your reasoning and how your honesty was a positive influence. If you didn't resist the temptation, explain any negative internal and external consequences that followed. Listen to your kids' doubts, concerns, struggles, and question. Questions are a good sign that your kids are thinking about the matter seriously. Try to talk to them openly, honestly, and maturely.  If your child asks, "Is it wrong if I lie so that I don't hurt my friend's feelings?" for example, let them know, "It's important to tell the truth, even when it's hard. Lying might make your friend feel better now, but it will hurt their feelings later on." If your child questions a value you have taught from a young age, try to stay calm about it. These discussions will be difficult, and you may not have all the answers. Remember that it's alright to say, "I don't know the answer to that. How about we work on it together?" Remember that your child...


Ask questions to learn more about a girl who interests you. Focus on girls who have things in common with you. Give genuine compliments to girls who interest you. Show off your sense of humor by telling jokes and stories.

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

Talk to her about herself, and show genuine interest in her answer. Nod along as she talks, and ask follow up questions to learn more. This will show her that you’re interested in who she is as a person. Ask questions like, “What do you like to do for fun?” “What are your goals for the next 5 years?” or “What’s the funniest thing that’s ever happened to you?” A girl will be more interested in being your girlfriend if you have things in common. Pick girls who have similar interests, hobbies, or personality traits as you do. They don’t need to be exactly like you, but it’s important to have common ground.  For instance, you might both play the same instrument or both enjoy athletics. Don’t pretend to have something in common with a girl to get her attention. This usually backfires because she’ll eventually realize you were not forthright. This will make her feel good about herself and it shows her you may be interested in being more than friends. Tell her something nice about herself and try not to focus on her body. Only give 1 compliment at a time so she doesn’t get uncomfortable. You might say, “Great answer in class today,” “Your performance was amazing!” or “This t-shirt is awesome.” Everyone likes to laugh, so using humor can make a girl like you more. Learn a few jokes from the Internet and think about the funniest things that have happened to you. When you’re around the girl you like, share these funny tidbits with her or your group of friends. Even bad jokes can be funny if you commit to the punchline. Don’t be afraid to laugh at your own jokes and just be silly.


Ask questions. Laugh Get awe-ful. Try new things. Keep learning.

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

A simple way to seem enthusiastic is to ask questions. It shows you're interested and engaged in the moment. And then what happens when you ask questions? People respond and they might say something that actually sparks your interest, if it didn't before. So make the first step! Ask questions, get the ball rolling, and see how it grows from there. It's easy to write off a topic/thing/person as uninteresting, judging a book by its cover, if you will. Resist! If you're tempted, make it a point to pry a bit further. You may find that lifting the veil sparks your curiosity. And that curiosity may lead you to finding something worth being enthusiastic about! . One of the simplest ways to get happy is to start laughing. Start laughing and being happy and enthusiasm will follow. It can naturally put you in a better mood and get the creativity and positivity flowing. After a certain amount of time in an environment, the novelty of it all goes away. You quit noticing what once stopped you dead in your tracks with its beauty. You stop asking questions and wondering. You stop feeling awestruck. When that happens, enthusiasm escapes like grains of sand through your fingers. All of a sudden life is drab and unremarkable. Don't let that happen. Simple things like the beauty of a sunset can bring enthusiasm back. The architecture of your favorite local building. Heck, a group of children building snowmen. When you stop and smell the roses, you just might stop and find what'll keep you going -- what can be downright inspiring. A simple way to start getting awestruck again is to try to new  things. Life can get boring doing the same ol', same ol' -- so mix it up! It's impossible to maintain enthusiasm about something you've been doing year in and year out. And it's ridiculous to expect yourself to be enthusiastic if you don't have an exciting routine! Even the smallest of change-ups can do wonders. Have you been running 3 miles (4.8 km) a day for the past six months? Find a new trail! Start cooking at home. Pick up a hobby....


Ask questions. Listen attentively. Look for signs that your crush is interested in you. Look for signs that they aren’t into you.

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

Find out what they’re interested in. Show an interest in their interests. If they like something you don’t know about, ask them to explain it. This will get them talking to you.  For example, you can say: “Hey, it’s March Madness. What’s your favorite team?” Or if you need an explanation, you could say: “That sounds really cool. I don’t know much about it though. Can you explain it some more?” They’ll talk to you more enthusiastically if you share the same interests. Once they do talk to you, don’t interrupt. Listen carefully and respond when it’s your turn to talk. Be kind and show that you care about what they are saying. This will help them open up more.  Say things like: “That’s really interesting. Please tell me more.” Also thank them when they talk to you. For example: “Thanks for telling me about that.” Pay attention to how much they talk to you. See if they take the time to always greet you when they see you. Notice if they regularly compliment you or treat you especially nicely. Talk to them more and compliment them more if you see these signs of interest from them. See if they don’t respond with interest when you make comments. Observe if they talk to other people just as much as they talk to you. Notice if they don’t treat you nicely all the time or if they are inconsiderate or inconsistent when they interact with you.


Ask questions. Make eye contact. Practice the golden rule.

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

Show that you are truly interested in them by learning as much as you can.  Take a genuine interest in what they share with you.  Follow this up with more questions.  The vulnerability and personal nature of learning more about the other person will lead to intimacy.Try these questions:  How does that make you feel? What can I do to help? One of the most commonly listed turn-offs is someone who does not maintain eye contact.  Attention should not be shared with other people in the room or other parts of the body.  Getting to know someone on the inside is best done through the eyes. Remember the other person wants to feel just as sexy and irresistible as you do.  So, do unto others and see how well they respond to you.  Once they feel sexy and appreciated, they will definitely want more.


Ask questions. Practice what you'll say. Think of similar situations you’ve been in.

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

If you’re trying to keep a straight face while you’re talking to someone, invest yourself more in the conversation. One way to do this is to ask the person questions. It’s also a good way to steer the conversation away from something you find funny.  For example, if the person you're speaking to has been telling you about their job, but then they veer off into a topic you find funny, try to ask them questions that get them back onto talk about their job. You can say things like "Tell me more about what sort of schooling you needed for your job," or "How did you get started in that field." If you have a hard time keeping a straight face when you're telling a joke or playing a game, practice ahead of time. Practice the joke over and over so you can keep your face straight when you tell it. You can also practice things to talk about during a game to distract yourself and keep a good poker face.  If you're trying to distract yourself during a game, talk about something completely unrelated to it. For example, if you're playing poker, don't talk about other poker games you've played. Instead, you can talk about what's going on at work or something that happened while you were at the store. People you speak to will feel validated if you can back up what they’re saying with your own experiences. Thinking about your own past gets your mind off the present and helps you control your face. For example, if someone is telling you an embarrassing story that you can tell hurts them a bit, share your own embarrassing story. It not only stops you from laughing, it can help the other person feel better about their own experience.


Ask questions. Show interest. Be engaging. Speak with class.

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

Ask open ended questions to get him engaged in the conversation. Talk about absolutely anything that you’re comfortable with. This will get him talking to you and can show off some of your interests as well. Have a few in mind before you strike up a conversation in case there is any extended silence.  "What did you think about the game last week?" "What are your plans for the weekend?" "What did you think about the end of that new movie?" Pay attention to what they’re saying. Show interest in who they are and what they’re all about. If you bring up something that he likes, it’s likely that he’ll want to talk about it—to you—more. Don’t act as though you like something that you don’t. If you fake it, he’ll likely pick up on it and no guy wants to be faked out. Don’t be afraid to disagree, but stay open-minded to their opinions too. Don’t be a reporter and rattle off question after question. Joke with him and laugh at his jokes. Laughing at his jokes, even if they aren’t hilarious, will get his attention. When you’re happy and laughing, it will be hard for him not to catch on. Don’t swear or speak poorly of people. If he’s talking about something he really likes and cares about, swearing or speaking down on it would be an automatic flag telling him that he shouldn’t be interested in you.


Ask school officials to help. Talk to your teachers about ways to work school spirit into lesson plans. Ask parents and the community to help encourage school spirit.

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

If you go to your school officials and ask them to help you improve school spirit, they will be thrilled. Talk to them about any ideas you have, and ask them to participate as well. For instance:  School officials could wear school colors or jerseys on game days. You could ask your school officials for permission to occasionally use part of school time for a pep rally. Tell them that holding a pep rally during school hours will ensure that people come and improve their school spirit. Ask your principal or headmaster to share a special cheer, song, or encouraging thought with the school at the start or end of each day. Talk to your school officials about starting a school Hall of Fame. This could include pictures, plaques, awards, and other information about students and athletes from your school that have made notable accomplishments. Ask your principal to agree to do a stunt, wear a ridiculous hat, or something else fun if students accomplish a goal like raising a certain amount of money for the community. Teachers might agree to let you use class time for an activity that will raise school spirit if you can show that it will also be productive. For instance:  Students in a history, writing, or journalism class can work together to write a history of your school. Topics could include things like the founding of the school, notable alumni, academic and athletic accomplishments, and key dates in the history of the school. Students in art class could work on painting signs and posters for pep rallies and other events while practicing their drawing and other artistic skills at the same time. Students in a drama or creative writing class could develop fun and educational skits to share at pep rallies or other events. For instance, students could write a skit about what life was like at your school 25 years ago. There are lots of ways for parents, local businesses and organizations, and community members to get involved in your school. Some possibilities include  Ask a teacher, parent, or other adult about...


Ask someone to help you. Hold your hand upright and your thumb out. Loop the tape around the side of your thumb. Make a front loop around your hand, thumb, and wrist. Fasten the bandage looping. Inspect your strap application.  Check the person’s pulse again

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

Although you can strap your thumb yourself, if may be easier if someone helps you. Ask a friend or family member to help you tape or bandage your thumb to help ensure proper application. Raise whichever hand you are taping or bandaging. Keep your hand straight and flex your thumb so that it is horizontal or perpendicular from your palm.  Prop up your hand with a table if necessary. Apply one piece gently around your forearm, just below your wrist in a loop like a bracelet. This is the anchor tape for your strapping.  Use the same principle with a bandage. The tape or bandage should be taut, but not tight. Tape that is too tight could cut off your circulation.  If your skin begins to throb, the tape or bandage is probably too tight and may be cutting off your circulation. Take the anchor tape off as soon as you can and then reapply it more loosely. Starting at the level of your anchor tape, loop the tape around and then across the side of your thumb, back down to the starting point. This can help provide extra support to your thumb and wrist. Add up to one to three additional side loops of tape, depending on how much support you need. Starting at the anchor tape level, place a strip of tape in the middle of your wrist and loop it over to the front of your hand. Finish off the front loop by bringing back around your wrist and fastening the tape or bandage just above your wrist. Depending on how much support you need, you can add extra pieces of tape or layers of bandage. After you completely wrap your thumb and surrounding forearm, fasten the bandage so that is it doesn’t loosen or fall off. You can fasten the bandage with a safety pin, clip, or a piece of medical tape. Move your wrist, forearm, and thumb before you start any activity. If you experience any discomfort from the tape or bandage, remove the wrap and re-apply it in a looser and more comfortable manner. to see if your strap is too tight. Your pulse should be between 60 and 100 beats per minute. If it’s not, remove and reapply your strap. Pressing...


Ask the announcer at a game or assembly to do your promposal. Get your teacher to give a promposal quiz. Set up a scavenger hunt with your friends. Kidnap your prospective date. Organize a flash mob.

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

If you know who handles the announcements at school events, ask them for help. They might be willing to interrupt their announcements to ask your date to prom for you. If they say no, have a backup plan! For example, if there’s no way they’ll let you get on the microphone at the homecoming game, see if they’ll let you do it at a pep rally. If your teacher is easygoing, try asking them to get involved by making a promposal assignment. Try something like a pop quiz where the answers spell out your date's name and the word "prom," or a fake quiz where the only question is "Daryl, will you go to prom with Alyssa?" Ask your friends to help set up a trail of clues leading your date to you. You'll need someone to make sure nobody else finds the clues, and another friend to make sure your date is there when the hunt begins. If you're already in a relationship with your date and you know them really well, get your friends to "kidnap" them for your promposal. You can have them run up to your date and drag them to where you're waiting with a sign or a bouquet of flowers. Be very careful with this technique! Make sure your date would like this, and that your friends understand to stop if your date becomes scared or upset. A flash mob is when a group of people gather in public, do something random or spontaneous, and then quickly leave. You can organize your very own flash mob to do your promposal. First, create a group text or Facebook event for everyone you want to invite. Ask them to gather somewhere you know for sure your date will be, and then ask them to dance, hold up signs with your promposal, or just yell "Will you go to prom with Derek?"


Ask the breeder for 4 - 5 days worth of the food the puppy has been eating. Choose a food labelled as "Growth" or "Puppy" so that the youngster gets the right balance of calcium and protein for growth. Feed your puppy on a consistent schedule. Don't give the puppy lots of extra treats or food. Take your puppy outside after eating. Wash your puppy's food bowls daily with warm water and a little dish soap.

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

This is so it can eat something familiar that its tummy is used to digesting. Make a gradual change over to the food you select, once the puppy has had one or two days to get used to its new home. To make this change add in a little of the new food (say ¼) and cut down on its previous diet (to ¾). Over 2 - 3 days further increase the amount of new food as you wean the puppy off the original diet. This gives the bugs in its tummy a chance to change over so that it doesn't get diarrhea because of a sudden change of food. Examine the label on the food packaging and check that a named meat, such as chicken, beef, or lamb, heads the list. This means the main ingredient is that named meat and is an indication of quality. Avoid foods which list cereals as the main ingredient and also "meat-by-products," since these are the less nutritional parts. Once puppy is a year old switch it onto adult food. For a puppy under 12 weeks of age feed the recommended quantity of food (as per the pack instructions) divided into 4 meals spaced over the day. For a puppy aged 3 - 6 months divide his daily allowance into 3 meals. For six months or over feed 2 meals a day. Once the puppy is one year old you have the option of feeding it just once a day. Remember that beagles are exceptionally greedy. The beagle has no concept of when it is full, so don't give into that appealing expression and give it extra food. Also, make sure all food is kept out of reach and in a sealed container, because your puppy will relish the challenge of finding a way to break into a food bin. However, the good news is that beagles are highly motivated by food which gives you an excellent training tool. Be aware that after puppy has eaten, approximately 10 - 20 minutes later, it will get the urge to toilet. Put the puppy outside after a meal and remember to stay with it so that you are there to praise it when it goes. Or, just throw them in the dishwasher. Washing food bowls prevents illness, bacteria from growing, and it makes each mealtime more enjoyable.


Ask the child to help come up with rewards for their good behavior. Praise them verbally. Spend time with them.

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

You can sit down with them, and write down several different things they’d like to do, meals they’d like to eat, and places they’d like to visit. Have them tell you which things they really, really would like, and rank them from highest priority to lowest priority. When your child does something really great, you can reward them with their top reward. For example, if their teacher reports that they have behaved very well all month at school, you could take them to the zoo, if that was the thing they most wanted. You can use the other rewards to reward them for other good behavior, such as making up the bed each day for a week without being asked. If you notice your child behaving particularly well, tell them so. Thank them for behaving so nicely, and give them a hug. Reward them with something from the list, too. If you never reward them for their good behavior unless they remind you of your agreements, it may demonstrate to them that you're not really paying any attention. Most children really enjoy doing things with parents and caregivers. If your child is behaving well, show them that you appreciate it by doing things together with them. Allow them to take more responsibility with tasks. This will show them that you notice their good behavior, and are rewarding it. For example, if your child is behaving very well, ask them to come plant some flowers in the garden with you. Then, let them take charge (within reason). Let them choose where to plant the flowers, let them place the seeds into the hole, and cover it up.


Ask the court if you can change. Find a new lawyer. Terminate the representation with your initial lawyer. File a motion for substitution of attorney. File for a continuance, if necessary. Request your file from your former lawyer. Request return of unearned fees.

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

If a hearing, deposition, or trial is scheduled within the next few days, many courts will not let you switch attorneys, as it will take a new attorney time to get up to speed and it does not want to delay a case any more than necessary.  Call or visit the clerk’s office to find out what the rules are concerning changing attorneys and then plan to switch at a time when the court is likely to allow it. Make sure you have a new attorney on retainer before you fire anyone. It is not a good idea to be without competent representation for even one day in the middle of a lawsuit. Find a new lawyer before you dismiss your current one.  Find a lawyer in the same manner that you found your current one. If you gathered referrals from friends and co-workers, then pull out the list of names. If you searched through a bar referral list, then find it again and look at attorney websites. To prepare for your consultation, summarize your case in a paragraph. In a few sentences, state what the case is about (e.g., slip-and-fall case at the drug store) and where you are in the litigation process. Bring copies of legal documents to the consultation. Since litigation cases quickly become complex, you can refer to the documents to answer questions about where the case stands. (For example, whether the defendant has filed a summary judgment motion.) Be prepared to talk openly about what you did not like about your current lawyer. In writing, notify the attorney that you are ending the representation. The letter may be brief. Simply state the problems you have with the representation and clearly state that you wish to discontinue the relationship. If you met with the attorney before to discuss your concerns, attach a copy of the follow-up letter you sent. This will remind the attorney that you have already met to discuss the issues. Once you have a new attorney, you must notify the court of this fact. The procedure differs by state. But in most cases, both your old attorney and your new attorney must sign.  Check with the court...


Ask the doctor about an MRI. Get additional imaging tests to find out if the cancer has spread.

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

In addition to looking inside your bladder and taking a tissue sample, doctors at the hospital may want to use various imaging tests to inspect your bladder for cancer. The MRI is a common option. Unlike an X-ray, the MRI test uses magnetic waves to scan the interior of your body and will let doctors detect any tumors in your bladder.  You’ll likely be given an iodine-based dye known as a “contrast medium” prior to the scan, so that doctors can detect a tumor more easily. If you know or suspect that you are allergic to this type of dye, you must let your doctor know before they administer any tests. Prior to an MRI, you do not need to make any adjustments to your typical daily diet. You also do not need to alter your intake of prescribed medications.  Your doctor will have the results from the MRI scan in less than 1 day. If your doctor suspects that you have metastatic bladder cancer (cancer that has spread to other parts of your body), they may order additional tests. These might include:  A bone scan. This test can detect cancer that has spread to your bones. The doctor will inject you with a mildly radioactive substance and scan your body with a camera that is sensitive to the radioactive tracer.  A chest X-ray. This test can detect cancer that has spread to the lungs. Your doctor will look for masses or other abnormalities of the lungs and chest.  Let your doctor know if you have any allergies to contrast dyes before having these procedures done.


Ask the doctor if you have a metal allergy.

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

If you suspect that the infection was caused by an allergy to nickel, ask for an allergy skin test. The doctor or dermatologist will test a small patch of your skin to determine if you have a metal allergy. Nickel is the most common metal to cause a skin allergy that leads to infection. The doctor may recommend putting cortisone cream on the area and replacing the nickel jewelry with niobium, titanium, or gold. If your allergic reaction is severe, you may have to remove the jewelry and let the hole close. Once the skin heals, you can re-pierce the site, but use a metal you’re not allergic to. Even jewelry that is labelled “hypoallergenic” can contain nickel or cause allergic reactions. You should also avoid stainless steel jewelry, which contains nickel.


Ask the girl on a date. Ask your crush if she likes you. Ask one of your crush’s friends if your crush likes you.

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

Even if it’s scary this will answer a lot of your questions. Stop snooping around trying to guess her every intention. Everyone will respect you if you go up and ask her on a date. They will admire your bravery and wish that they had the guts to do something like that.  Even if it’s just a girl who works at the bookstore, go up to her and see if she wants to get lunch with you sometime. The worst that happens is that they say no and they will probably be really flattered. If they say anything mean then they weren’t worth your time to begin with. For example, just ask her what she's doing for lunch tomorrow. Ask her if she would be up to grab some tacos with you. It's as easy as that! It might be a good idea to find out if she has a boyfriend. If she does, she probably is more interested in him than you. If she has a boyfriend, the best thing to do is lay off of her. If she doesn't have one, she could be interested in anyone! This is another way of being direct and finding out the answer to your question. However, the benefit of this method is that you don’t have to follow through on a date and neither do they! If you’re on the younger side a date is a difficult thing to accomplish, just asking if they like you is a good way to start. You can build from there after your question has been answered. You don't have to say "do you like me". Try telling her that you feel like you guys have a really good connection and you find yourself wondering if it might be something more than friendship. Then ask what she thinks. This isn’t the bravest way to go about it, but it might work. Try to choose one of her friends who you are close to also. If the friend knows you are a good person they might be willing to help you out and tell you the truth. It might be hard to hear, but at least you won’t be constantly worrying about if she likes you or not. If they refuse to answer then that’s probably a good sign! However, the friend also might just say that they don’t know.
