Suggest emotional management options. Help identify triggers. Offer alternatives to self-harm.

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

Helping someone develop more emotional awareness and coping techniques that don’t involve self-harm can help minimize self-injurious behaviors.  This could be something as simple as maintaining a journal that is dedicated to expressing and processing emotions, or something more complex, like going to psychotherapy sessions to learn about processing emotions. Practicing mindfulness through meditation or yoga may help self-injurers be in touch with and process their emotions in a calmer, healthier way.  Additionally, the discipline and strength required to achieve advanced yoga positions may help some people experience a release similar to that felt during self-injury. The self-injurer likely has specific triggers: events, situations, or emotions that cause him to feel the need to self-harm.  If they become aware of those triggers, they can develop more strategies for coping, avoiding the triggers, or making the conscious choice to engage in an alternate activity. It may help if you talk to the person who is practicing self-harm about your own emotional triggers and how you deal with them without injuring yourself.  Be sure to approach such a conversation from a position of caring and offering alternatives, not judging or dividing yourself from them. Based on the reason that the person self-harms, you can offer some alternative strategies for dealing with the feelings.  Not every alternative will work for every person, but suggesting some specific alternatives to try may help your friend find something that works for them.  Someone who self-harms to deal with emotions may feel a similar release through moderate to vigorous exercise, making loud noises, destroying something (such as ripping paper or breaking sticks in half), writing poetry or songs, or writing in a journal.   Someone who self-harms to calm down may be able to substitute the self-harm with self-care in the form of luxurious baths, massages, spending time with beloved pets, or cuddling in a soft, warm blanket.   Someone who self-harms from a...


Suggest reparations. Allow him a chance to speak. Try not to get defensive. Move on.

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

While this does not apply to all small offenses, it can help in more serious situations. The best way to suggest reparations is to suggest how you are going to change bad behavior or habits in the future. Another way to suggest reparations is to ask “What can I do to make this better?”  Then let him know you'll take his comments to heart. Try to keep the apology short and sweet. It will be less muddled and allow for a better conversation. A good apology should be a dialogue, not a monologue. There's a good chance that he is still angry. It's important that you keep your cool during the apology. Listen and express additional regret, if you feel it is necessary, but don't turn the apology into an argument. Stop talking about it once he has accepted the apology. Men often find it easier to accept an apology at face value and move on without resentment; so don’t bring it up unless it becomes an issue again.


Suggest something for everyone to do together. Organize a social get together. Set up a friendship blind date.

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

One way to have your friends meet is to invite both of them to something that you know that they will like. If both of your friends are into basketball, set up a pickup game and invite both of them. If they like music, go to a show and invite them both. If you organize something ahead of time, it is harder for your friends to bail. An easy way to get your friends to meet is by hosting a party and inviting both of them. If they both show up, introduce them to each other. This takes the pressure off the introduction and, if your friends do not get along, there are other people around for them to talk with. This way you are not stuck awkwardly doing some activity with two people who do not like each other. As a rule of thumb, be sure to invite people to the party that both friends know. If one friend does not know many people, this can be an opportunity for them to expand their social circle. Although you would normally want to be around to facilitate a friendship, it may be easier to arrange for your friends to meet each other without you. Make a time for them to meet at a public place like a bar or coffee shop. Tell them what the other one looks like so that they will be able to identify each other.  You could also give your friends each other's contact information and let them set up a friend date. In general, try to introduce your friends in person. This will keep the situation from getting too awkward.


Summarize at the end of each chapter. Use sticky notes. Use colored tabs to mark pages. Make a list of new vocabulary. Create an index in the front of the book. Revisit your notes.

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

After you finish each chapter (or sub-chapter), it is a great idea to stop and summarize the chapter in your own words. Don’t compose an essay. Instead, shoot for a few concise sentences. This will make it easy for you to locate specific ideas within the book when you return to it. If you have borrowed this book from a friend or from the library, it is best not to make marks inside. However, you can use sticky notes to follow many of these same strategies. Sticky notes come in many different sizes, so you can use them to mark specific quotations or main ideas. You can also stick them in the margins and use them to jot down themes, questions, symbols, or other notes.  Sticky notes also come in a variety of colors. You can use these colors to your advantage and create a color-coding system for your notes. Similar to sticky notes, colored tabs are placed near the edges of your book’s pages, and stick out when the book is closed. These tabs serve as little page markers, enabling you to flip to a specific page with ease. You can use colored tabs to indicate significant pages to yourself. Once again, you can use a variety of colors to indicate the location of specific themes or questions. If you don't wish to write in the book, instead of circling new vocabulary words, you can keep a separate list.  It may be useful to provide the page number on which you found the word and to look up the definition in a dictionary.  If you're reading a novel, you might want to wait to look up a word after you've finished a chapter so that you don't interrupt the flow of your reading. As you go through and identify key themes, you can save yourself a lot of time in the future by using that data to create your own index. On the inside of the front cover (or on a separate page or index card), you can list significant themes and their corresponding page numbers. This way, when you are looking for information on a specific topic, you’ll know right where to turn. In order to get the most out of your notations, it is important to go back...


Summarize each chapter or act in bullet points after you read through the text for the second time. Make out character profiles for each main character. Outline any problems the characters face. Determine whether these problems are solved. Remember some important statements made. Make more detailed notes, including main themes in the text and how each character is important in the text. Write down any symbols in the text and where they appear. Look up contemporary connections.

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

This will make future review easier, as you will have a rough summary to work from. Don’t get too bogged down in summary. You don’t have to summarize every little thing that happens in a chapter or act. Aim to note the main action of each one, as well as any important character or thematic moments. Include anything important that the character says or does, along with links to other characters in the text. For plays, you may want to note any speeches that seem particularly important, such as Hamlet’s “To be or not to be” speech or the “attention must be paid” speech from Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman. This can often be even more helpful than chapter summaries. What challenges and conflicts do the main characters face? What are their goals? For example, Shakespeare’s Hamlet has several problems he needs to solve: 1) Is the ghost of his father urging him to seek revenge trustworthy? 2) How can he take revenge on his uncle in a court full of people who are watching his every move? 3) How can he overcome his natural tendency to overthink things to work up the courage to take the revenge he wants? Sometimes, problems are solved fairly neatly at the end of a story: the Death Star is destroyed in Star Wars, the One Ring is destroyed and Aragorn restored as King in Lord of the Rings. Sometimes, problems are solved but not in ideal ways: for example, Hamlet does achieve his revenge and fulfill the ghost’s request, but he also kills several innocent people along the way and ends up dead himself. Understanding whether characters achieved their goals, or why they didn’t, will be useful in discussing the works in your exam. While you don’t necessarily need to memorize important statements or speeches, remembering what they’re generally about can be very helpful when you go to make an argument about a text. For example, if you’re studying Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, remembering that Mr. Darcy admits to meddling in Elizabeth’s family affairs will be useful in explaining why they are so angry with each other...


Summarize her key personality traits. Discuss her interests. Describe her speaking style. Note her body language. Mention any special personality quirks.

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

Think of the first thing you would say about the girl if someone asked you what she was like as a person. Is she outgoing, or shy? Serious, or silly? Does she have a lot of drive and ambition, or is she more passive and laid back? What's her sense of humor like? You can also think of personality in terms of how she interacts with other people. For example, you might say, “Sarah is kind of shy at first, but she opens up a lot once you get to know her. She's very smart and has a wicked sense of humor.” In order to really understand who a person is, it's important to know something about the things they care about. Describe what you know about the girl's major interests. This could include things like her career goals, her hobbies, foods she likes, music she listens to, or her favorite movies. You could also talk about things like her core beliefs and values. For example, “Florence loves writing, and she wants to be a published author someday. She's very passionate about social justice issues.” Consider things like the speed and volume at which the girl speaks, as well as her word choice and speech patterns. Perhaps the girl you are describing talks fast and runs her words together, or maybe she has a slow and leisurely style. She may tend to speak quietly, or maybe everyone can hear her coming from a mile away. Does she usually ramble when she talks, or does she get straight to the point?  You can also talk about the sound of her voice. Is it high and childish, or deep and mature-sounding? Mellow, or harsh? For example, you could say, “She has a quiet voice and speaks in a very level tone. Her speech is slow and deliberate, and she always takes a moment to think about what she wants to say before talking.” A surprising amount of human communication is nonverbal. Being able to describe the girl's body language can really help your listener or reader get a good grasp of what she is like. For example:  Describe how she uses her hands when she is speaking. Does she gesture a lot, or does she usually sit still with...


Summarize the main points you made throughout the speech. Bookend your speech. Make the topic seem important. Use a signal phrase from your title. Don't be afraid of using the phrase "in conclusion. Thank the audience to signal the ending.

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

The most important thing for a conclusion to accomplish is to remind the listeners of what they should have learned throughout the speech. If the introduction tells the audience what they will learn, and the body tells the audience the content they should be learning, the conclusion should repeat those main ideas one final time.  Use the chance to repeat your thesis a final time, if necessary. What's the one thing you hope someone remembers from your speech? What's the one thing that needs to be learned? In informal speeches, repeating the main points won't be necessary. If you're giving a toast at a wedding, you don't need to run back through a list of the great things about the groom. In some cases, the conclusion might recall the introduction, helping to illustrate that the speech has come full circle. If you used an example or a specific case study reference in your introduction, then you can return to that example in your conclusion. This can be an excellent way of book ending the speech and keeping people interested.  If you started the speech by drawing a sad portrait of a recently returned veteran who couldn't get work, or health insurance, and ended up in dire straits, that can be a heart-breaking intro. Pick back up with the story in conclusion to let you know where that vet is now. Any kind of reference can work. If you started a speech with a quote by Thomas Paine, end with more about Thomas Paine. The bookend technique is an excellent way of signaling the end for the audience. The speech should do a lot to present a case and lots of details to your audience, but the conclusion can be a great opportunity to make those points important. Depending on the nature of your speech, if you've just presented a lot of complex details about climate change, the ending might be an appropriate time to introduce your first case study, or personal example that will help to drive home the facts that you've just presented. Make it real for your audience.  Put a face on things. Case studies and personal examples are...


Summarize the purpose of your letter. Write your closing sentence. Provide a final greeting. Proofread your letter carefully. Include your contact information. Sign your letter.

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

Begin your closing paragraph with a sentence or two that summarizes your reason for writing. You also want to include any closing remarks that are relevant to the subject of your letter.  For example, if you are writing to apply for a job or internship, you might include a statement in your closing that you have references that are available upon request. If your letter is only a couple of paragraphs, this may not be necessary. However, it can be helpful for longer letters that are a couple of pages long, as it will bring your reader back to the reason you wrote to them in the first place. This portion of the closing paragraph also typically isn't important if you are writing to a close friend or family member. To end your letter, let the person to whom you're writing know what you expect as a result of the letter. In this final sentence, you will let them know what decision you hope for them to make or when you expect to hear from them.  For example, if you simply want a reply, but don't have any definite timetable, you might write Espero su respuesta, which means "I await your reply." If you anticipate that the recipient may have questions or want to talk to you further, you might write Cualquier cosa estoy a su disposición, which means "I am available should you have any questions." Much as you would end a letter in English by writing a word or phrase such as "Sincerely yours" or "All the best," a similar word or phrase in Spanish will close out your Spanish letter.  Closing greetings in Spanish tend to be a bit more formal than they are in English. Commonly, you would use something such as Saludos cordiales, meaning "Cordial greetings." If you're asking the person for something, you might use Gracias y saludos, meaning "Thank you and greetings." If you don't know the person at all, and they are older than you or in a position of authority, you might use Le saludo atentamente. This phrase is the most formal closing greeting, and can be literally translated as "I attentively send greetings." It is so formal...


Summarize your experience. Include choice anecdotes. Touch on a serious or heartfelt point. Include well-wishes.

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

Think about the overall experience you’ve had at the place that you’re leaving. It may be a job, a school, a volunteer position, or a place that you’ve lived for a long time. Try to think of what you’ve done while there, and how you would tell the story of your time there from beginning to end.  Try writing down a narrative history of your time at this place. It doesn’t have to all be appropriate for a speech. Simply write it down to help yourself remember everything you’ve done, and to help yourself realize what has been the most meaningful to you. Your narrative may start with something like, “I came to work here right out of college and had never lived on my own before. I was so shy that I didn’t make any friends for nine months. Then I got that promotion a year later and formed close bonds within my new department.” It’s okay to write down things that were difficult. You can edit them out later. You might include something like, “I hated when we had to move to the new office.” When you edit your speech, this may turn into a funny anecdote, or maybe you’ll say something like, “Even when we had to move to the new office, I couldn’t help but notice how cheerful my colleagues managed to be in a hard time.” Once you’ve written your summary, see if there are any anecdotes that you can remember from your time at this place. An anecdote can be funny or touching, but it should be a short, specific story that helps paint a picture of everyday life while conveying your thoughts or feelings overall.  An anecdote might start out something like this: “I’ll always remember my third day of school. Spencer and I had been assigned to sit next to each other on the bus, but on the third day, my grandmother followed me onto the bus and declared she’d need to have a word with Spencer…” Anecdotes can be great ways to express appreciation for a specific person, or to illustrate something you appreciate about the place as a whole. For example, the above anecdote might end with something like, “...and of course, he’s never left my...


Supervise and lend a helping hand. Offer reward for full completion. . Create chore reminder cards.

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

If you are trying to teach your kids responsibility, you might not want to do their chores for them. However, by lending a helping hand or offering encouragement and advice, you can turn chores into a bonding experience. Play the word chain game while you work. Choose a category, and take turns while doing chores chaining together the last letter of a word in that category with the first letter of the next word. For example:Category: Sportsbaseball → luge → eight ball → limbo ... Rewards will be unique to each situation. Younger children can be persuaded to work diligently with small prizes, like stickers or dollar store toys. Older chore doers might enjoy a free pizza or a night at the movies. Whatever the case, a little motivation goes a long way. ward points for chores completed. You can award more or less points depending on the difficulty of the task, but be sure you are consistent with your scoring. Unfairness can lead to stubborn chore doers becoming more resistant to your efforts due to a perceived lack of fairness. You might notice that the chore doers consistently forget to clean something completely, or that certain aspects of the chore are avoided. In this case, you can improve accountability and squash excuses by writing out chore "recipe" cards. Simply:  Write down all parts involved in doing the chore on card stock and punch a hole in its upper left hand corner. Put a binder ring in the punched corner. Leave the card in the room where the chore will be done. Attach the binder ring somewhere obvious, but out of the way. Maybe on the arm of a lamp, or onto a rung of a chair that sits off in the corner. For rooms that have multiple chores, you can collect several cards on the same binder ring.


Supervise their interactions for the first 2 weeks. Feed them separately for the first few weeks. Crate the dogs for 30-minute intervals throughout the day. Give the dogs their toys and treats while they are in their crates. Stick to the adult dog's regular schedule. Give each dog individual attention.

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

You will still need to supervise their interactions for the first 2 weeks, even if they seem to get along. This way, you can intervene if the adult dog displays threatening behavior, the dogs become too excited and can't calm themselves down, or if the adult dog needs a break from the puppy.  Make sure to reward the dogs with treats and praise for positive interactions. If you need to leave the house, crate the dogs or place them in separate rooms. Food can still be a source of conflict, even if the dogs have developed a good relationship. When it is time to feed the dogs, place their food and water bowls in separate rooms, like the kitchen and the dining or laundry room. Once feeding time is over, pick up the food and water bowls and put them away in a cabinet. After 2 weeks, start feeding them together by placing their bowls 8 to 10 feet (2.4 to 3.0 m) apart in the same room. Over 1 to 2 weeks, gradually place their bowls closer together until they are comfortable eating side by side. This will not only help with crate training for the puppy, but it was also give the older dog a break from the puppy throughout the day. The adult dog will begin to expect these breaks and may even learn to crate itself once it needs a break from the puppy.  Alternatively, let the adult dog go outside to take a break from the puppy if it isn't crate trained. Reward both dogs with a treat and praise once you crate them. Like food, toys can still be a source of conflict. Only give the dogs their toys to play with while they are in their crates for the first 2 weeks. Make sure to put the toys away inside a cabinet once you uncrate the dogs. After 2 weeks, leave their toys inside their crates or near their bedding. Make sure to use each dog's designated toys when you play with them. You and your adult dog have established routines, which have provided your dog's life with structure. Make sure to feed, walk, and play with your adult dog at the usual times. This way, instead of looking at the puppy as a disruption, the adult dog can...


Supplement your diet with vitamin B12 and folic acid. Reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption. Reduce activities that can cause bleeding. Ask your doctor about over-the-counter pain medications.

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

Vitamin B12 and folic acid are  two nutrients necessary for the healthy production of a variety of blood elements, including platelets. Because the body can't store very much of these nutrients, it's important to ensure you consume these nutrients frequently. To boost your body's supply of B12 and folic acid, take dietary supplements that contain these nutrients or eat foods high in these vitamins. Foods such a spinach, citrus fruits, kiwis, and dried beans are high in folate, while eggs, milk, cheese, liver, and mutton are high in vitamin B12. Alcohol interferes with normal platelet production and function. The immediate effect of alcohol consumption (in normal users) is to decrease platelet response within 10 to 20 minutes of ingestion. However, in severe alcoholics, platelet function is actually markedly increased, which can lead to separate health issues. In either case, reduction of alcohol use can help return platelet function to normal. If you suffer from clinically low platelet levels, you will want to avoid bleeding, which can be difficult to stop and can result in potentially dangerous complications. This may mean that you should avoid contact sports, woodworking, construction work, or other physical activities where the chance of injury is relatively high. Some common, commercially available medicines, especially ones containing aspirin or ibuprofen, can inhibit platelet production and function. For instance, aspirin reduces the ability of platelets to bind to each other by blocking the function of certain crucial protein structures on the platelets, inhibiting blood clot formation. In these cases, your doctor may recommend you cease taking these medicines or may recommend a suitable alternative.


Support the broken section. Tape off all surrounding surfaces. Clean all of the connecting surfaces. Mix the epoxy with matching granite dust. Apply the first coat of epoxy. Shim and tape the area. Apply a second coat of epoxy.

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

Many times the pieces that break off of granite counter tops are not supported well. If this is the case, you need to find a way to support the broken piece during and after the repair. This will allow you to make a secure repair and will fix the problem that caused the break in the first place. For example, if an overhanging piece of granite has snapped off, you will need to install a metal support under the overhang to hold the granite up. This can be a piece of angle iron or other L-shaped bracket that can hold the granite's weight during and after the repair. Since you will be using a strong glue to reattach the granite, it's important to mask off surrounding surfaces. This includes all of the granite counter top that surrounds the crack.  Use painter's tape or a similar product to do the masking. The product should be able to stand up to the glue you are using but still be easily removed in the end. Masking completely will also help you if you need to remove the counter top or surfaces around it in the future. For example, keeping the glue off a sink in the counter top will ensure that the sink can be removed in the future without damaging the counter top. When reattaching a piece of broken granite, you need to make sure all of the surfaces are free of dirt and loose debris. This includes granite dust that may have been created when the piece broke off. Brush off any loose pieces and then use acetone or another residue free cleaner to wipe down the surfaces. Let this surface dry before proceeding with the reattachment. In order to get a seam that blends in, you want to incorporate some of the granite into the epoxy. First mix the epoxy as directed on its packaging. Then blend in the granite dust until the mixture becomes a thick paste that is the same color as the existing granite.  Create the granite dust with a grinder, either by grinding a section of the granite that is not normally visible or grinding a spare piece you have lying around. Use a wood paint stick or other disposable tool, such as a...


Support the underside of the counter top. Apply rods along the underside of cutout edges. Have an experienced professional install your granite.

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

When granite is installed, it should have solid supports installed underneath the entirety of it. This could be any type of solid, rigid base, such as 3⁄4 inch (1.9 cm) plywood or concrete board. There are specialty brackets available online that are made to support granite overhangs, such as those used to create eating areas at the end of counter tops. Granite counter tops often crack in narrow stretches that are not as strong as the rest of the slab. In these areas, such as areas in front or behind a sink, it's a good idea to apply a steel rod or metal strip to give these narrow areas added strength. Granite fabricators can do this in their shops. They will cut a slot for the rod to sit in and then epoxy it in place. Talk to your fabricator about this option before having new counter tops cut to shape. Don't have a general contractor or handyman do the job. Instead, hire someone whose entire job is installing granite, as they will have a deeper understanding of the material and how to install it correctly. If you want to install granite yourself, talk to a professional or 2 before moving forward with the project. They may be able to give you key advice about your specific project, including what pitfalls to avoid.


Support them at important events. Share meals together. Go do fun activities together. Share secrets with them. Talk through any issues. Keep in contact at least once per week if you don’t live together.

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

A big part of being a good sister is making time for your sibling and showing them that they’re important to you. If your sibling has an upcoming test or job interview, encourage them! Or perhaps they will be receiving an award soon; be sure to show up for the ceremony if you’re able.  Give them a card or gift to show your pride in them. Say “Good luck today on your test” or “Congratulations on getting inducted into the honor society.  I’m so proud of you.” Every so often, get together to have dinner or lunch together. You can make it a random, spur-of-the-moment sort of thing, or you can make it a weekly/monthly tradition. Use this time to talk to one another and avoid using your phone.  If you can drive and they can’t, take them out for burgers or ice cream. If you are too young to drive, or if you don't want to, make some sandwiches together and have a picnic at the park. Have fun with your siblings!  Go see the new action movie that you’ve both been dying to see. Or maybe you have to go prom shopping soon - consider taking them with you.  Have a beach day, go out for a run, or go bowling. Have an arts and crafts day. You can try a new project together, or you can teach your sibling how to do something you excel at. If your siblings are trustworthy, share secrets with them.  This will help them feel more comfortable coming to you with their own secrets. Be mindful of their age and only tell them things that are appropriate based on that.  For instance, if they are over age 13, it’s probably okay to tell them about your first kiss. Keep your siblings’ secrets too, as long as it doesn’t concern their safety or put them in danger. In that case, talk them through why they shouldn’t keep it a secret, and go with them to tell a parent, guardian, or other trusted adult. Even if you are the perfect big sister, issues are bound to arise.  When they do, listen to your siblings' concerns and respect your differences. Even if they are annoying you, stay calm by taking deep breaths. You might say “It bothered me the...

Surprise her. Take your time with the foreplay. Talk in a low, sultry tone. Try incorporating toys and other elements of kink. Take control, unless she prefers to.

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

Walk up behind her and kiss her neck. Touch her stomach and breasts. Run your hands over her body and make her feel your desire. Press yourself against her back and grind, slowly. Dim the lights, turn off your phone, and try to be absolutely present in this intimate space. Run your hands over her body. Kiss her: gently, at first, then more passionately as the mood heats up. Slowly, carefully undress her, and let her clothes fall to the floor. Look deep into her eyes, and smile.  Give her a massage. Practice your foot or back massage so that you can truly help her relax. Warm up her muscles while giving her some loving attention. Run your fingers or lips across her joints. The neck, inside elbows, and the back of the knee are more sensitive than other parts of the body. Touch her thighs. Work your way slowly up and down her legs. Grab her rear and dig your fingers into her hip. Whisper your compliments or come-ons slowly and seductively into her ear. Tell her how much you want her. The gentle brush of your lips combined with a low voice can help turn her on. Invest in bedroom toys that are geared toward women. Give her the toy as a gift, and suggest that the two of you try it out later. Some people like to be more dominant in the bedroom, while others prefer a more submissive role. Pick up on cues regarding whether or not she likes to be in control. Bear in mind that she may like to take charge sometimes, but also quite enjoy it when you make the moves. If she always waits for you to start the move to the bedroom, then she might like it when you are slightly dominant. Don't be afraid to ask her. If you're comfortable doing so, you can simply say, "Do you find that you're more dominant or more submissive in bed?" You might also phrase it as a statement: "I love the feeling of taking charge in the bedroom. How do you like it when I do that?"


Surrender or bring inner acceptance or yield to what is.

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

If acceptance of the outer circumstances is not possible then bring inner acceptance to what is. This means to yield or allow or accept the thoughts, mental patterns and emotions that come in response to anything in the present moment. Offering no inner resistance, which also means surrender to life, is one of the greatest practices to end suffering. Its cause when you are one with 'what is', the reality, dependency on circumstances dissolves and they lose power over you. That's when greater good reveals itself to you, and outer circumstances tend to improve greatly without much doing on your part. Also, if action or words are required, they come from infinitely intelligent 'unconditioned consciousness', not from the limited conditioned mind. This is the miracle of surrender. Read Surrender to the Present Moment for more. Either way, no resistance.  This pointer can also be misinterpreted as your mind may ask "So how can I bring inner acceptance?" or "what does 'become one with what is' means?" etc. and come up with mental interpretations or concepts on the basis of past conditioning and knowledge. This would become your definitions of the mentioned pointers and clever mind has created more constructs to identify with to ensure its survival. Again, Ego needs to identify with content on which its survival depends. Even suppressing content or using will power or trying or concept of 'negating all concepts' etc., in an attempt to dissolve the Ego are Ego's strategies to keep you trapped in the prison of thoughts and emotions. Its because problems of the mind cannot be solved at the level of mind. Only recognizing yourself as the awareness behind content will free you from suffering and dream of form. Awareness is true intelligence. Inseparable from universal intelligence. Although, if you are stuck in concepts then allow it to be, as being stuck in concepts or pointers can become part of your spiritual journey. Its cause 'flourishing' of 'being stuck in concepts' can eventually force you to disidentify from your...


Surround yourself with creative people. Pay attention to other people’s ideas. Learn to listen. Remember, you will be presenting ideas that might be outside of "normal.

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

Humans are social animals. You'll be inspired when other people are inspired. The creativity will remain high when you work or befriend people who inspire that creativity in you and in your work.  You find it especially helpful if you befriend people who aren't in the same field that you are. These people can give you perspective on your work that you wouldn't get from someone who is saturated in the same ideas that you are. This is another reason why it's so important to do things outside of your comfort zone. That is where you'll meet people who challenge and inspire creativity in you, people who think differently from you. Ideas don't exist in a vacuum. Even creative thinkers like Salvador Dali (as an example) started with ideas in his painting that he'd gotten from earlier sources. Paying attention to other people's ideas will help foster your own.  You’ll see how other people think outside the box. Learning other people's thought patterns and ways of thinking will help you keep from stagnating in your own thinking. You could even say to yourself "How might my creative painter friend view this problem of ads?" You can also look at the ideas of famous innovators. Examine what ideas they had that worked and what ideas didn't work. Look at their practices for encouraging creative thinking (like the examples of Steve Jobs, Tchaikovsky, and Toni Morrison in the first part of the article) and try those practices out. One way to encourage creative thinking is to stay quiet and listen to what other people are saying. Part of why this is such a good idea is that it helps you really hear what other people are saying so you don't present the same ideas that have already been presented. It also helps you to marshal your thoughts before you speak. For example: the ad person tried to sell ads to a business that really hated the newspaper. If they hadn't really listened to the concerns of the business (like they felt their ads weren't given priority, and they didn't like some of the content in the newspaper), they...


Surround yourself with intelligent people. Be neat in appearance. Remove bad habits. Cultivate cultural habits. Use your middle initial.

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

Not only are you more likely to be perceived as educated and intelligent, you are more likely to actually become more intelligent due to the probability that you will have more intellectual discussions and be more challenged. Being around educated individuals will help increase your intellectual stimulation, help further your knowledge base, and help further your own education. Impressions are important to conveying a great deal of information including intellect and education. Particularly affecting the perception of education is the amount of exposed skin others can see. The more modest and formal your appearance the more others will focus on what you are saying and thinking, rather than what you are wearing.  Wear modest and formal clothes that fit well. Make sure your clothing is ironed and stain-free. Keep your hair neat. Have good hygiene. Remove facial jewelry. Keep your shoes, fingernails, and teeth clean. Watch out for bad habits or nervous habits such as nail biting, hair twirling, or chewing on pens. You want to communicate confidence in yourself, your education, and your intelligence. While these habits don't necessarily show a lack of education, they will cause you to be perceived as anxious, nervous, or uncomfortable. If you feel the urge of a bad habit coming on, try to actively refocus your mind on the other person or the conversation. There is a cultural component among the educated, that includes music, art, theatre, and cultural experiences. Taking part in these activities will increase your exposure to various topics, spark your creativity, and provide you with conversational material which illustrates your education. Some cultured areas to consider include:  Attending theatre performances or the opera. Listening to classical music. Visiting museums and art galleries. Reading books, journals, and the newspaper. While this may seem like an odd factor, using your middle initial in your name is largely regarded as an indication of intelligence and education. This appears to be due to the fact...


Surround yourself with positive people. Be positive about other people. Show interest and pride in others. Take note of when you help others. Join a social group.

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

When a friend is negative, his negativity can have the tendency of rubbing off on you. For example, if this person always talks negatively about your school, you might start to think negatively too. This is because this is all you focus on. If you think about the positive aspects of your school, you’ll start to see those more clearly. Build a network of people who approach life with positivity. Spend less time with those who bring you down. Sometimes feeling negative is pervasive and affects all our interactions. Negativity can make people not want to spend time with you, adding to a cycle of feeling negative. A way to break out of this cycle and build a positive mindset is to practice social support. Expanding positive comments towards others can help you build a positive thinking mindset.  For example, you can help someone feel good about themselves by recognizing him and pointing out something positive. Compliment him on how well he can sing, for example. Being nice to others is associated with positive outcomes in family, health and career, which will help build your positive-thinking mindset. When you interact with others, you can help them feel positively. This will, in turn, increase your own positive mindset. Increase positive thinking in others by showing interest and reinforcing the pride you feel. When you get together with a friend, spend the time talking about what’s new with her. Steer the conversation away from yourself and focus on listening to her. Write down the ways that you have helped someone else and contributed to his or her wellbeing. It sounds somewhat gratuitous or self-serving. But research shows this kind of behavior can help you feel like you’re making a difference by staying positive. Belonging to a social group can help reduce negative thinking. Religious affiliation can, for many people, cultivate a positive mindset.


Surround yourself with positive people. Limit contact with negative people. Seek therapy, if necessary.

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

Positivity is contagious. If you surround yourself with genuine, encouraging people, you'll have more self confidence. This can allow you to be more open to the kinds of opportunities that can lead to good luck and good fortune.  Seek out friends who look on the bright side of life. Make plans with the co-worker who always has nice things to say. Invite your friend Tina, who's known for her bright and sunny attitude, out for a cup of coffee. Call family members who tend to be more positive. If your brother has a gloomy outlook on life, do not phone him after a bad day. Instead, call up your mother who always sees the positive. It's very hard to be open to good fortune when you're surrounded by negative people. Negativity, like positivity, can be contagious. You may be unable to embrace new opportunities if you're surrounded by people with a defeatist attitude.  Learn to disengage with negativity. People who are chronically negative usually do not actually want help. They just want to continually complain. If a friend or family member is going on about a problem ceaselessly, do not try to offer solutions. Instead, say something like, "I'm sorry you feel that way, but I'm sure you'll figure it out." Then, end the conversation.  Limit your contact with draining people. You do not have to end a friendship or relationship completely. However, see that person less. Do not call, text, or interact with a negative person every day or every week. You'll end up getting dragged into their worldview, resulting in you missing chances for good luck. If you believe you're chronically unlucky, you may have an underlying psychological condition. Depression, for example, can often lead to a negative overall outlook about oneself and one's prospects. If you worry you suffer from depression or another mental health issue, see a therapist.  You can find a therapist by going through your insurance provider. You can also ask your regular doctor for a referral. If you're a student, you may be entitled to free counseling from your...


Surround yourself with supportive people. Build your self-esteem with positive self-talk. Do things you enjoy. Recognize that it's okay to still love your parents. Try a yoga class. Keep a journal

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

Spend as much time as you can with people in your life who lift you up. These might be relatives, trusted teachers, sports teammates, club members, or friends at school or in your neighborhood. Choose people you can count on to be there for you and support you. When you need a friend or a listening ear, reach out to these people. In addition to peers, you can also include adults or mentors as part of your support. If you've dealt with your parents' emotional abuse for years, it may take a toll on you and your own emotional health. Often, emotional abuse results in feeling bad about yourself or feeling worthless or unlovable. None of these things are true. Any time you catch yourself thinking a negative thought about yourself, try to come up with a positive thought about yourself instead.  For example, if you find yourself thinking, “I can't do anything right,” stop and remind yourself of something you've accomplished, like a school assignment you did well on or a personal project that you're proud of. Talk to yourself the same way that you would talk to a good friend when they are feeling down. Maybe you enjoy sports, reading, dancing, or listening to music. Try to find time to do these things as much as you can. Consider joining a club or sports team at your school where you can do the things you love with other people who share your interests. If you're a creative person, look for communities online where you can post your writing or art. Low-key activities like watching a movie or reading a book can also help you relax and feel less stressed by the negative things that are happening in your life. It's normal to feel confused or have mixed feelings when you are dealing with emotional abuse. Even if your parents treat you poorly, you may still love them and want to protect them. However, this shouldn't stop you from getting help or talking about it with someone you trust. It's possible to get help dealing with abuse and still care about your parents. There may be days when you love your parents and days when...


Survey all the different styles of dance that are considered ballroom dance. Decide what your dancing goals are. Find a specific teacher or a dance school that specializes in ballroom dancing.

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

Figure out which styles you are drawn to. While you don't need to learn all of them, you will need to learn a few core styles at first.    There are a variety of styles of ballroom dance, generally divided into standard and latin styles. Standard styles include Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, Viennese Waltz, and Quickstep. Latin styles include Cha-Cha, Rumba, Samba, Paso Doble, and Jive. While these styles may vary a bit, especially between American and International styles, the foundation of each is a very specific and distinct sequence of steps.  Complicated dances such as the bolero and paso doble can be picked up later, but if you want to go out dancing and not be stuck in a chair the whole night, you'll need to learn the basic steps such as the Rumba, Cha-Cha, Tango, Waltz, and Fox Trot. Do you want to do social dancing or do you want to compete? Do you want to go out each weekend or do you just need to look good at a wedding?  A specific type of event might require that you learn only one style. You'll be better prepared for a night of casual social dancing if you learn basic steps for a number of dance styles. Whatever your goals, remember them when moving forward! You might try the phone directory or a quick Google search for your area. Contact one or more of the schools and talk to them about your goals and if they can help you fulfill them.   Know what you want and that your needs match your instructors' expertise and methods. Talking to the other students and seeing how long they've been at the studio or visiting one or more dance classes may give you a good idea if it is a match. Some schools, for example, specialize in competitive dancing, while others focus on helping first-time dancers gain the experience (and courage!) to brave the ballroom dance floor at their next wedding invitation. If you live near a college campus, take a look at their student clubs and activities. Many have ballroom dance classes that are open to non-student members.


Survey his room or apartment and see what’s missing. Talk to his close friends or family for gift ideas. Ask him if he needs or wishes that he had something. Compare prices for your potential gift ideas. Buy him a gift card.

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

Some guys don’t mind not having the nicest things, some don’t care about the necessities, and others may not have the money to buy everything they need. This might be a new pair of shoes because his old ones have holes, or a new cellphone because his screen is cracked.  Getting a gift that he needs might not have the same “wow” factor as buying something he wants, but it’s likely to get a lot of use. If his apartment needs repairs, some tools or a toolbox is a great gift. Even if the guy doesn’t admit that he needs anything, his friends or family might be more realistic. People who are personally close to the guy, especially those living with him, will have a good idea for things that he needs. Asking people the guy lives with will also prevent you from buying something he already has. Talking with your guy will give you good insight into what he needs. Try to not be too forward when you ask him what he needs so he won’t be offended. Instead, listen when you talk to him, and ask him questions to discover if he’s missing anything. Some guys are more open than others. If you really can’t figure it out by talking to him, you may be able to be more direct and just ask him if he needs anything for his apartment or house. Many people have a limited budget when it comes to buying gifts for friends. Because of this, it’s always good to compare prices online and in department stores. Try to always go for the highest quality item, for whatever you are trying to get, so the guy will be impressed. If this isn’t in your budget then you should choose another gift.  Sometimes you’ll find the perfect gift in a place you wouldn’t expect like an outdoor market. Getting the best price for the item will not only save you money, but will ensure you can upgrade to the best quality gift. If all else fails and you're not sure what to get, you can always get him a gift card. Think of what he likes to do and where he usually shops, and aim for a gift card from that store. Determine how close you are with him, how much you have to...


Sustain a subharmonic note and purse your lips. Push up from the back of your throat. Push down at the base of your tongue. Continue to hold the note.

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

Purse your lips so that your mouth is shaped like an oval as you sustain your subharmonic note. This will allow your subharmonic register to resonate better. Build up your subtone note until it feels comfortable to hold it. As the pressure builds into your torso, push out the note from the back of your throat. The goal is to sing with both sets of vocal cords to produce your subharmonic tone. Tighten and flatten your tongue near its base. Curl the tip of your tongue up slightly. This should distort the sound of your subharmonic tone. Keep practicing until it feels comfortable holding your subharmonic note. Continue to repeat the process until you can sing in your subharmonic tone.

Swab the body. Swab the neck. Use a pad saver. Inspect & clean the key pads.

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

Most saxophone cleaning kits come with a brush or cloth on a long string with a weight on the opposite end. Put the weighted end into the bell of the saxophone and turn the sax upside down. Bring the weighted end through the body and come out the narrow end. Gently pull the swab through the body several times.  Swabbing helps dry the interior so that pads are not damaged, inhibits bacteria growth, and removes any build-up of foreign particles from foods, beverages or saliva in the instrument.  It is not unusual to see a slight green color on the pad after a few passes. This is normal and does not indicate rust or metal damage. Insert a flexible swab through the larger base opening on the neck, coming out on the narrow side to which the cork is attached. Brush out the inside thoroughly to remove any foreign particles.  You can run water through the neck as well — just be sure that no water comes in contact with the cork, or it may swell and deform. Soaking with vinegar or brushing with detergent can help get rid of excess build-up. If available, these are helpful for removing any residual moisture. Make sure to use them after swabbing. Insert the pad saver through the body's narrow end. Let it absorb moisture for a few seconds, then remove. Some manufacturers make similar items such as "bell brushes" or "neck savers" for other parts of the saxophone. These are fine to use similarly if you have them, but not necessary for regular saxophone maintenance. Check for sticky pads as you play the saxophone, and visually inspect under the pads for any wear and tear. Use wet cotton swabs or a thin piece of paper to clean where the pads meet the tone, removing any sticky residue. A little clean water should be enough to do the job.


Swallow 1 capsule of Plexus VitalBiome every morning. Take 2 capsules of Plexus XFactor Plus each morning. Swallow 2 soft gel capsules of Plexus MegaX at night before you sleep.

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

VitalBiome is a probiotic which contains 8 different strains of bacteria. The product claims to encourage good gut and digestive-tract health.  Probiotics are not directly responsible for any weight loss, but help with healthy digestion.  VitalBiome can be taken either with food or between meals. It will work effectively regardless of when you take the capsule. Another Plexus nutritional product, Plexus ProBio 5, also claims to encourage good gut health. ProBio 5 is a liquid drink. XFactor Plus is a multivitamin. While it won’t suppress your appetite and won’t help with weight-loss directly, it claims that it will improve your body’s health overall.  You can take VitalBiome and XFactor Plus together. XFactor Plus contains various vitamins, including a B-vitamin complex. MegaX is a plant-based supplement which contains healthy Omega 3 fatty acids. Omega 3 acids are typically found in fish oil.  Omega 3 acids are beneficial to your heart’s health. MegaX does not need to be taken with food.


Swap frozen yogurt for the ice cream. Use a different flavor ice cream. Try a different flavor of Oreo cookie. Change the milk.

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

If you're watching calories, or just want a milkshake that's a little lighter, consider using frozen yogurt. There are a lot of flavor options available and you can even find frozen Greek yogurt. While vanilla ice cream and Oreo cookies are a classic combination, try using chocolate, strawberry, or even peanut butter ice cream. You'll be surprised how well Oreo cookies taste with a new flavor! While there used to be a single kind of Oreo cookie, there are now a variety of Oreo cookie products. From golden to mint to peanut butter, you can easily find a new flavor to mix up. Milkshakes can be made with any type of milk. Use skim for a lower-fat milkshake or whole for a creamier one. You can even use non-dairy nut milks or swap out plain milk for a flavored one. Chocolate milk will add an even stronger flavor to your Oreo milkshake.


Swap out exaggerations for factual statements. Keep your responses simple. Rehearse what you want to say in advance. Reflect on your daily interactions.

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

Practice using facts in everyday conversation to help yourself stay on track and avoid confrontation when you are being assertive. Try using factual statements instead of hyperboles, which can cast unnecessary blame. For example, if you’re talking to someone about an assignment you don’t want to do, say, “I think I’ll need to spend a full month preparing for this,” instead of, “This thing is going to take forever.” Often, those who lack confidence feel the need to explain themselves. To keep yourself from speaking like someone who is unsure, practice using fewer words to communicate. Simplified speech and assertive speech are often one in the same.  For example, when asked to go out for happy hour after work, avoid saying something like, “I can’t go tonight, I have to go to the grocery store, stop by my mother’s house to let her dog out, then take my own dog for a walk and once I finally get home I have some cleaning to do before my favorite show comes on.” Instead, politely and briefly decline by saying something like, “No thank you. Tonight doesn’t work for me, but maybe another time soon.” This may also make it easier for others to obey your requests. Keep your statements short, direct, and relevant.  If you tend to use fillers such as “like,” “um,” or “yeah,” try to take small breaks in your speech instead. A pause is generally less discernible to your audience than it is to you, and it doesn’t muddle your speech as much as filler words. If you know in advance that you will have to speak to someone about a need, concern, or opinion, rehearse what you want to say. Practice keeping calm, speaking clearly, and making positive statements that express your needs. Some people even find it helpful to write out a script or have a practice conversation with a friend or colleague.  If you have someone act out your conversation with you, ask them for feedback. Let them tell you what you were doing well, and where you could improve. If you are uncomfortable with making decisions on-the-spot, have some pre-scripted...


Swap pesto in for mayo. Use mashed avocado as a mayo substitute. Emphasize creaminess by switching mayo with almond butter. Sub mustard for mayo. Try soy-based mayo.

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

Pesto is loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. You can make pesto at home or purchase it from the store. Add it to sandwiches as a spread, to salads as a dressing, and pasta dishes as a sauce. Replace the mayo usually used in potato salad with pesto for an interesting and healthier take on this common dish. Peel and pit your avocado, then mash it up in a mixing bowl with a fork. When it reaches paste consistency, add a little salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste. After that, it’s ready to be spread on a sandwich, mixed in with a salad, or more.  Mashed avocado is a great mayo substitute you can use to make a healthier version of egg salad. Feel free to add to your mashed avocado. You might find it tastes even better with some chopped peppers and onions. Be careful when subbing almond butter. It has about the same number of calories, but almond butter also is rich in protein, vitamin E, and fiber. When a recipe only calls for a little mayo, try almond butter instead. Excluding honey mustard, this condiment is a very low-calorie alternative. Additionally, there are many varieties of mustard that you can use to keep its flavor fresh and dynamic.  Mustard and a little cottage cheese, for example, could result in an interesting sauce for a cold-salad recipe or slaw.  Mustard tends to be a little on the high side where sodium is concerned. Keep this in mind if you’re on a sodium restricted diet. The most common brand, Nayonaise, has half the calories as regular mayo and is rich in vitamin B13 and omega-3 fatty acids. The consistency and flavor of soy-based mayo is just like normal mayo, so feel free to use these products exactly as you would normally.


Swap your chair for a stability ball. Bounce a bit. Pivot your body on the ball.

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

Using a stability or exercise ball as your chair from time to time can be a great way to engage your buttocks, core and legs while you work.  Simply sitting on the ball requires you to regularly activate each muscle group to maintain your balance and posture. You may not want to get rid of your chair.  Instead just use the exercise ball as your seat sporadically to ensure you don't put too much pressure on your lower back. While sitting on an exercise ball, press your feet into the floor and engage your gluteal muscles to make yourself bounce.  Don't push too hard, just continue to engage your legs and rear end by continuously bouncing a few inches up and down.  Make sure your feet are about shoulder-width apart to engage your gluteal muscles and ensure you can maintain your balance.  Treat your bouncing as though you are doing a series of mini-squats. This exercise will also burn calories during your day. Instead of treating your exercise ball like any other desk chair, take advantage of its shape by adjusting your positioning on the ball periodically throughout your day.  Keep your feet in place and press out to the left, right, forward and back, using your legs and buttocks to maintain your balance as you move.  Hold yourself in positions that you can feel engaging your buttocks. Be careful not to overextend yourself so you fall down or strain your lower back.


Sweep a selenite wand down and away from your body. Light a sage bundle, then use a feather to waft the smoke over you. Recite a cleansing spell or say a prayer.

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

A selenite wand is a white rectangular crystal that’s known for its purifying and cleansing properties. Hold the wand about 6 to 12 in (15 to 30 cm) away from your body. Starting at your head, sweep the wand down your body to cleanse your aura. When you finish a sweep, bring your arm away from your body like you’re brushing the energy away from you.  This process may help cleanse your aura of negative energies and attachments, like a minor curse. You can get a selenite wand at a store that sells crystals, a magickal supplies shop, or online. Place your sage bundle in a heatproof container. Then, light the end of the sage and blow out the fire so that the sage is smoldering. Use a feather to sweep the smoke over your body. Start at your head and work down to your feet. Sage is commonly used for cleansing and purification and originated in Native American traditions. You can use it to cleanse yourself and your space of negative energy. As you smudge yourself, say a spell or prayer that states your intention to be rid of the curse or negative energy. In your spell or prayer, state that you know the curse will broken so your ritual has more power.  Say, “Earth, fire, water, and air, be the answer to my prayer, banish this curse and leave me pure, tonight I claim a blessed cure.” You could pray, “Dear God/Goddess, Please cleanse me of this negative energy and lift the curse. I know that you will make me free. Amen.”


Sweep away debris at least once per week. Remove stubborn dirt with mild soap and a soft bristled brush. Use a pressure washer.

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

Keep your deck clear of dirt and debris with frequent sweeping. Depending on how much traffic your deck gets and what the current season is, you may want to sweep once a day, or every few days. At minimum, sweep it once per week.  If you have a very large deck, a leaf blower may be ideal. If you have one, a shop vacuum works well for getting dirt and debris from between the decking boards using the crevice tool and the brush attachments. Hose your deck off thoroughly with a water hose fitted with a good variable fan spray nozzle to loosen and remove surface debris. Mix warm water and mild dish soap in a bucket. Use a soft bristled brush and the cleaning solution to scrub your deck clean. Make sure to get down in the crevices and corners thoroughly. Use your water hose to rinse away the soap.  This will also get rid of any mold or mildew growing on your deck. Make sure you do this, at minimum, twice per year. This isn’t more effective than scrubbing by hand, but it’s much faster. If you have a large deck, you may prefer this approach. Use a pressure washer with no greater than 3100 psi and make sure it has a fan attachment and soap dispenser. Spray down your deck with the mild soap. Use a soft bristled brush to scrub the boards. Use the fan attachment to spray each individual deck board and rinse away the soap and debris.  Pressure washers can damage the boards of your deck if they're not used carefully. Never point or spray the full pressure at yourself, another person, or pets. Small pieces of flying debris can also cause harm or damage. Stay at least 8 inches (20.32 cm) away from the deck surface at all times and spray in the direction of the wood grain to avoid possible damage.  Make sure you rinse away the soap thoroughly; otherwise, it may leave a film on the deck surface.


Sweep debris off the map or poster with a brush. Remove fasteners and roll up your item. Fill a plastic container with a small amount of water. Set a wire rack inside the container. Place your map or poster on the rack. Check on the container in an hour. Uncurl your map or poster. Dry the item in cotton. Leave your item to dry for a few days. Take valuable or stubborn items to a paper conservator.

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

It’s important to clean off the map or poster before humidifying. Newer items won’t have much debris and you can wipe off spots with your finger or a soft, dry cloth. Dirtier items should be treated with a soft, natural brush like those made of animal hair or feathers. Any dirt left on the item during humidification can lead to stains.  Avoid using synthetic fiber brushes like nylon scrub brushes. These are too harsh to be used on delicate items. If your item is very dirty, you may be able to have someone restore it. For example, a paper conservator may save your paper map. The map or poster must not be rolled up with rubber bands. Any other fastening objects, including staples and clips, should be set aside. If your item is not completely rolled, roll it up in the direction of the curl. Add about two inches (5.08 cm) of room temperature water to a large plastic tub. Make sure the container is big enough to hold a second container. A plastic storage tub or large trash can are common choices.  More water will provide more moisture, which speeds up humidification. This can be risky if you don’t monitor your map or poster carefully. Misting near the map or poster with a spray bottle is an alternative treatment that can uncurl your item quickly. However, it is very difficult to get the perfect amount of water exposure. The rack needs to lay flat and stay above the water. Instead of a wire rack, you may set a smaller plastic container or trash can in the water. Make sure the rack or container is secure enough to stay in place. Lay the item out on the rack or inside the smaller container. Double-check that you used room temperature water before sealing the container. Warm water can condense on the container lid and drip onto your map or poster. Keep the humidification system in a temperature-controlled room where it won’t be disturbed. Once the lid has been sealed on the plastic container, you must let the map or poster absorb moisture. This takes about four to six hours. Come back after one hour to check on the...


Sweep debris off the pool cover with a soft-bristled broom. Use a cover pump to drain any water on the cover. Remove the cover and lay it flat on the ground. Wash the pool cover clean with soap and water. Rinse and dry the cover to prepare it for storage. Fold the cover up to store in a bag or container.

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

A push broom is the best option since it allows you to shove the debris toward one edge of the pool without scratching up the cover. Try using a pool brush if you have one. You could also use some other tools to eliminate stubborn debris, such as a leaf blower for a relatively dry cover. Use the leaf blower to force debris to the side where you can sweep it up. If your pool cover has more than 1 in (2.5 cm) of water on it, scoop up debris with a pool rake. A pool rake isn’t actually a rake. It’s a scooping net meant for collecting leaves and other debris. A cover pump is similar to a regular pool pump, but it sits on top of the cover to clear it of water. Place it where the water is deepest, usually in the center of the cover. You can use a push broom to get it into position. Activate it to let it drain the water. The pump plugs into an electrical outlet like any other pumps your pool uses. Attach a garden hose to the other opening on the pump so it can siphon water back to an area of safe drainage, such as a nearby bucket. Pool covers tend to be big and difficult to lift on your own, so ask for help if it’s available. Have each person stand near one of the pool’s edges so you can lift the cover. Keep it in the air so it doesn’t get dragged across any rough spots that could tear it. After finding a safe spot for it, spread it out on the ground.  Note that if you have a mesh cover, it has to be detached from its retaining springs through the installation tool that came with it. Then, use a 1⁄4 in (0.64 cm) hex key to lower the holding anchors, preventing the cover from getting caught on them. While you have the cover spread out on the ground, inspect it for damage. Replace it if you notice any tears. At least you will save some time by not having to clean and store the old cover! If you move the cover onto your lawn, don’t keep it there for a long time. It can damage the grass. Sweep or spray away any debris still left on the cover. The amount of soap and water you need will vary depending on the cover’s size...


Sweep high traffic areas every day. Start in one corner and work toward the exit. Sweep each section of the room with small strokes. Use a dustpan at the end to clean it up the dirty piles. Use a clean broom that’s in good shape. Clean your broom from time to time.

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

Floors that get a lot of use, such as a kitchen floor, will need to be swept every 1-2 days to be kept clean. Keep in mind that darker colored flooring will take a bit longer to start looking dirty than lighter flooring. Lower traffic areas will need to be swept around twice a week. Pick the corner that is the longest distance from the exit, and plan how to work your way around any furniture to reach the exit. Start by sweeping that corner, and then move outwards, finishing the room by the doorway. Divide the room up into 4 sections, and sweep each using short and deliberate strokes. Keep the pile of swept dirt in each section, creating a new dirt pile in each section. Don’t move the dirt pile around, as this will make the floor dirtier. Sweep up the dirt pile from each section once you have finished sweeping the room. If the dustpan leaves behind a small line of dirt, use a damp paper towel to wipe it up. A clean broom is key to making sure that it will actually clean the floor, rather than add more dirt to it. The bristles should all be facing in one direction. If the broom bristles are askew, invest in a new one. Fill up a sink with hot, soapy water and give it a scrub. Make sure that you use a sink strainer so that the dirt doesn’t block up the drain.


Sweep or dry dust mop the surface weekly. Reseal the surface every 2-3 years. Consider polishing high traffic areas. Avoid deicing salts and chemicals.

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

Once you clean a stamped concrete surface, it is important to keep it free from dirt, leaves, and other debris that might scratch the surface. Use a broom, leaf blower, or garden hose to remove debris weekly. A sealer will protect the color and sheen of your stamped concrete surface. Apply sealer to stamped concrete surfaces every 2-3 years to help block penetrating dirt, dust, and stains and protect against wear and abrasion. Talk to the contractor that initially installed the stamped concrete to find out what sealer is best for your surface. If you have high traffic indoor areas, you might see signs of wear on your stamped concrete surface. If this is the case, consider using a floor polish or wax on the surface for extra protection. Make sure the polish is formulated for stamped concrete. Your stamped concrete surface will last longer if you avoid using harsh agents to remove snow and ice, such as salts or chemicals. These substances can dull or crack the stamped concrete surface over time.


Sweep or vacuum the ceiling to remove dust. Polish any light fixtures, ceiling fans, and vents in the room. Go over the walls, doors, and door frames with a damp cloth. Wipe down the windows and window sills. Clear off and wipe down any surfaces.

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

Using either a large brush attachment on your vacuum or a long-handled broom, go over the ceiling in long, smooth strokes. Work from one end of the room to the other. Even if it doesn't look dusty, your ceiling can trap small particles that will float back down into the room, especially if the ceiling is textured.  If you can't reach the ceiling with your vacuum attachment or your broom, you may need to stand on a sturdy stepstool or step ladder. Be very careful when you're climbing, and only stand on a sturdy ladder or stool. Do not climb on furniture that's not intended for standing.  Warning: Do not attempt to clean your ceiling if it was manufactured before the 1980s, unless you have already had it tested to ensure it doesn't contain asbestos. Use a microfiber duster or a clean, damp microfiber cloth to wipe down your lights, ceiling fan blades, and air vents. However, if these items are really dirty, it might be best to vacuum them before wiping them down with a cloth.  Keep your cloth folded in quarters and switch to a new side whenever the side you're using gets dirty. When there are no more clean sides, grab a new cloth. Avoid using a feather duster, as these tend to just move dust around. It might seem like a big job, but wiping down your walls will remove a lot of dust that you can't necessarily see. In addition, dust all the way around your door frames, as well as along the top, sides, and front of any doors in the room. Pay extra attention to corners and crevices in the doors, trim, or crown molding. If you'd prefer, you can use your vacuum with a brush attachment instead of a damp cloth. Use a window cleaner and a clean cloth to wipe down the glass on your windows, then follow that with a squeegee if you have one to ensure you get a streak-free clean. Then, use your damp cloth or duster to clean everything around the window, including the windowsill, blinds, screens, and shutters.  To make dusting your window screens easier, go over them with a large, dry paintbrush.  To clean your blinds, close...


Sweep or vacuum the floor. Dust mop the floor. Prepare a water and detergent mixture. Mop the floor. Dry the floor with a towel. Apply teak oil. Repeat cleaning in two to three months. Use a sealer.

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

With a soft-bristle broom, go along the floor, removing any debris. You can also use a vacuum with a brush attachment to get between the crevices. Remember that slate is soft and easily damaged, so you want to choose a brush that is clean and as soft as possible. Choose a clean dust mop that is not oil-based. Run the mop in one direction over the floor to pick up debris and dust. Avoid moving back and forth, as this will move the dust back onto the slate and cause damage when you clean later. In a bucket, combine about a gallon of warm water with ¼  a cup of detergent. The detergent should be gentle to avoid abrading the floor. Choose a detergent for delicate clothing or a gentle dish soap. Specialized slate cleaners are also an option. These should be non-acidic. Follow the directions on the container. Wring out the mop before you start and make smooth strokes. Go slow. Rinse your mop and wring it out often to avoid any debris clinging to it and getting worked into the porous slate.  Steam mops are also an option. Check the hardware store. These mops pick up extra condensation and dirt.  Anytime the mop appears to be leaving streaks or debris on the floor, dump out your water and make the water and detergent mixture again. Choose a soft cloth that won't scrape the slate, then wipe off as much water as possible. This will prevent the water from seeping into the pores. Afterwards, let the floor air dry. Once the surface has dried, apply a thin layer of teak oil with a soft cloth. A small amount of oil will ensure a deeper cleaning, but don't apply enough that the slate begins to absorb it. Slate oil is also a good choice, but tends to be much more expensive than teak oil. Slate is a very delicate material, so your floor benefits from getting a soap and water wash every few months. This removes grime and prevents stains and the need to perform deeper, more difficult cleaning later. Stone and tile sealers are available at flooring retailers and hardware stores. Follow the directions on the label. Use a clean...


Sweep the affected spot with a broom. Vacuum. Dab with soapy water. Vacuum once again. If possible, run a dehumidifier while the carpet dries. For serious mildew, consider removing the carpet. Use a carpet shampoo or a vinegar spray to remove lingering odor.

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

To start treating a mildew-infected carpet or rug, remove as much of the mold from between the tightly-packed fibers as possible by sweeping or beating the carpet with a broom. Make sure to wear a dust mask and, if possible, perform this task outside away from children and pets; inhaling mildew can be hazardous to your health. For a deeper clean, you can also use a hand brush rather than a broom. Carpets and rugs are typically tougher than the fabrics listed above, so you can get away with using slightly stiffer bristles, but your should still take care not to scrub too hard or you may damage the carpet fibers. Next, use a vacuum cleaner to suck up all of the of the mold you've just dislodged in the last step. Any standard hose attachment should work, but for extra cleaning power, you may want to use a vacuum head with mechanical rollers or brushes. It's a good idea to empty your vacuum after using it to treat mildew. If you don't, mildew spores can be blown into the air the next time you vacuum. To reduce the health dangers of inhalation, empty your vacuum outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Soak a sponge or a small rag in a mixture of soap and warm water. Wring the soap or rag out, then dab at the formerly mildew-y spot to let the cleaning solution soak in somewhat. Don't scrub or grind the sponge or rag into the carpet, as this can force mildew spores deep into the fibers. Avoid using excess water. If you soak your carpet, you'll be creating the sort of moist conditions that led to the growth of the mildew in the first place. Your goal here is to gently clean the carpet fibers, not give them a bath. After you apply soap and water, to remove any excess moisture, give the affected section of carpet another quick vacuuming. It will probably be impossible to remove all of the moisture, but the more water you're able to suck out of the carpet before you leave it to dry, the better. Mildew, like many molds, thrives in dank, dark, wet conditions. By removing these conditions, you can make it less likely for...


Sweep the spider onto the dustpan. Gently tap the underside of the dustpan. Release the spider outside. Use a vacuum.

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

If the spider is on the floor, sweep the spider onto the dustpan. You can also do this if the spider is on a wall, but be careful not to sweep the spider on you! With the spider on the dustpan, head to the door. As you are walking, tap the underside of the dustpan with the sweeper or with your fingernails. The noise and the vibrations of the tapping will scare the spider so that it stays still and doesn’t run off the dustpan. When you get outside, place the dustpan on the ground. The spider should run off. If it doesn’t, you can leave the dustpan there until the spider leaves it, or you can use the sweeper to sweep the spider off the dustpan. If using a dustpan is too up close and personal with the spider for you, use a vacuum instead. On the lowest setting, vacuum up the spider. Then empty out the filter outside of your home.  You can use a regular vacuum cleaner, but be warned that this may possibly kill the spider.  A dust buster is a slightly better option.  You can also buy vacuums made especially for bugs and insects. You can purchase these on Amazon.


Sweep with a dust mop. Sweep with a broom made for hardwood. Vacuum often.

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

You should sweep daily, and a dust mop is ideal. Simply run the dust mop over the floors to pick up any dirt and debris. Shake it out over the trash if needed. If you prefer a bristle broom to a dust mop, you can certainly use one to clean your floors. However, look for one that has synthetic fiber ends (exploded tips), which will be the most efficient. You can vacuum hardwood floors as often as you'd like, though once a week is recommended. Simply set your vacuum to the setting for hardwood floors. If your vacuum doesn't have that setting, try turning off the beater bars and rotating brushes.  You can also use a handheld soft brush attachment. This will help sweep up debris while being gentler on your floor than a beater bar. Vacuuming will pick up most of the dust and debris on your floor.


Sweep your floors daily. Vacuum using the bare floor setting weekly. Mop monthly using a terry cloth mop head and hardwood floor cleaner. Wipe up spills as soon as possible.

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

Daily maintenance will help keep old hardwood floors in the best shape. Sweep or dust-mop them daily to remove dirt, dust, pet hair, and other debris. Be sure to sweep and mop in the direction of the wood grain. This helps prevent dirt and grime from getting stuck in cracks between planks. A microfiber towel is also great for removing dust. Vacuuming your hardwood floors will get rid of dust and dirt between the floor boards. Using the bare floor setting will help prevent the vacuum from scratching your floor. A hose attachment with a soft bristled brush is also an effective way to prevent scratches. Only use cleaners labelled for hardwood floors. Stay away from vinegar, ammonia, and harsh chemicals. Spray a small amount of hardwood cleaner directly onto the floor, then wipe the floor down with a dry terry cloth mop.  Remember to go with mineral spirits if your finish is unsound. Avoid using water-based hardwood cleaners on an unsound finish. Avoid using a wet mop and always use as little moisture as possible when cleaning your hardwood floors. Coffee, ink, paint, and pet messes are just a few materials that can cause long-term stains. Wipe up these and other spills immediately so prevent stains from setting. Use a slightly dampened cloth and avoid over-saturating the floor with water.

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

Summer is the best time of the year to take advantage of the warm weather and open pools. Spend the day at your neighborhood pool, or check out a nearby swimming hole or lake. If you’re swimming in a lake or similar natural area, make sure it’s safe and that you’re allowed to go swimming there.  If you don’t have a community pool to go to, see if a friend has a pool that they’d invite you to. Make sure you apply sunscreen to avoid getting burnt, especially if you plan on spending several hours in the sun. This is a good opportunity to explore your area and enjoy a little bit of nature. If it’s a hot day, consider inviting friends or family members to take an early morning or evening hike with you to avoid the hottest part of the day. Even just a walk around your neighborhood can get you feeling more energized. If you have a bike, take it out for a ride with friends or family members. You can take a leisurely ride around a shaded park, or you can go on a trek across town to get in some exercise. Maybe you’ve always wanted to try out a sport like rugby, ultimate frisbee, or kickball, but you’ve just never had the time. Start practicing your skills by yourself, or get a group of friends together and play the game to help you learn the sport. Check with your community to see if there’s a class or camp you can take that will help you learn the sport, such as a soccer, basketball, or bowling program. There are lots of plants that thrive in the summer, such as berries, peaches, corn, and green beans. Pick out a plant that you’d like to grow and either plant some seeds or purchase a baby plant so that you can watch it grow throughout the summer. You can plant the seeds or plant in your own yard, or you can grow them indoors from a pot, depending on the type of food you’re hoping to grow. family. Invite a bunch of friends to go camping or ask your family if they’d like to go. You can camp out in the woods, in a park, on a beach, or even in your own backyard.

Swing through the ball. Land on your kicking foot. Follow up your shot.

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

Don’t stop when your foot hits the ball. Move your foot through the ball as it leaves your foot. This ensures your leg’s momentum is fully expended on the ball. Your foot will raise up at the end of the swing’s arc. Bring your foot down and plant it on the ground first before you try to move. That way the momentum of your swing is maximized and you stabilize yourself as you try to move. If possible, run after your shot. Putting pressure on your opponent may cause them to deflect or drop the ball, giving you a chance to follow your shot and potentially score.


Swing with your full upper body. Swing downward. Raise the club as it makes impact with the golf ball. Follow through with the motion after the ball has made contact. Watch where the ball ends up.

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

Use your entire upper body to facilitate the chip. Avoid swinging with your wrists, as this movement will limit your force and control. Swing so that you're able to feel the movement in your hips. While your upper body should be limber throughout the movement, keep your feet and legs relatively stable. Your initial contact with the ball should be in a downward strike. The most common mistake beginners make is to hit up. Rather, the first part of a successful chip swing will aim down, only moving up once the club makes contact with the ball. While you'll be able to maximize your force and control by swinging downward, scooping up when your club meets the ball will give the ball the air it needs to escape the grass. Both the downward swing and upward scoop should be accomplished in a single, fluid motion. When you become more experienced with chipping, you may control the chipping force to accommodate the distance you want the ball to sail. A proper chip won't end with the ball's impact. In order to maximize your force, you should see the swing through, leaving your club back up in the air. Complete the swing in the same fluid motion you started with. After a chip, the ball should fly a short distance and proceed to roll. As with any golf shot, you should keep your eye on where the ball lands. Keeping an eye on the ball is important during practice, as well. It can teach you how much force you need with each club to go a given distance.
