Take some time to edit and revise your article. If time allows, wait for a day or two before editing. This will give you some distance from your article. Then you will be able to view your article with fresh eyes. Look closely at the central argument or point you're trying to make. Does everything in your article serve this central argument? Do you have a paragraph that is unrelated? If so, this paragraph should be eliminated or reframed so that it supports the main argument. Eliminate any contradictory information in the article or address the contradictions, showing how the contradictory information is relevant to readers. Rewrite sections or the entire thing as necessary. Revisions like this are common for all types of articles, so don't feel like you've failed or are incompetent. Even when an article is well-written, it will not be taken as seriously if it has grammatical errors or spelling mistakes. Make sure your writing is forceful by cleaning up your grammar. It's helpful to print out a hard copy of your article. Go through it with a pen or pencil to catch mistakes. Then go back and correct these mistakes on the computer. Listen for tone, rhythm, sentence length, coherence, grammatical or content errors, and compelling argument(s). Think of your writing as a piece of music, an auditory experience, and use your ears to evaluate the quality, strengths, and weaknesses. It is common to be able to identify your own mistakes in grammar or writing while reading aloud as well; this could cut down on the feedback that you may receive from someone else. Try showing the article to a friend, teacher, or other trusted individual to read it. Does this person understand the points you're trying to make? Does he follow your logic? This person may also catch errors and inconsistencies that you have overlooked. Give your article a suitable headline. The headline is short and to the point, using no more than about 10 words, if that. A headline should be action-oriented and should convey why the story is important. It should grab readers and draw them into the article., If you want to convey slightly more information, write a sub-headline. This is a secondary sentence that builds on the headline.

Q: The day you perform deep cleaning on the shingles should be cool and overcast. Sunlight and warm weather will ensure the cleaning solution dries too fast to be of any use. In addition, choose a day with little wind so that when you spray the solution, it stays on your roof. Before you begin, it's important to repair loose shingles and flashings to minimize roof damage. Afterwards, clean out your gutters and downspouts. You'll need the cleaning solution to drain off the roof during rinsing. Move any furniture away from the work area. If you're using a bleach solution, also cover your yard. Rinse down your lawn and plants before you begin deep cleaning so the water dilutes harmful bleach, then cover them with plastic to catch any spray. Before you clean stains, you'll have to climb up onto the roof and take off twigs, leaves, and anything else that would get in the way. Pick them up with your hand, use an air blower, or gently sweep them off with a broom.
A: Choose a cool and overcast day. Perform maintenance on your roof. Protect your yard. Remove debris from the roof.

Article: You don't want to recommend someone to a job who isn't serious about taking it. It wastes the company's time and reflects badly on you. Therefore, it's always good to make sure the person really wants the job before referring them. When considering whether the person would actually be a good fit at your company, think about the person's work history, such as their skills and commitment. For instance, does your friend really have the skills needed to complete the job? If not, you shouldn't recommend them. Similarly, if they don't have the experience that one would expect for the job, then you probably shouldn't recommend them. To help with the research, ask your friend for some evidence that they have the skills to do the job. For example, you can ask to see a resume to make sure they've actually done enough to perform well. That is, if you don't know the person very well (if they're more of an acquaintance than a friend), then can you really say how well they would do in the position? Make sure you can say with confidence that the person has the skills for the job. You don't want to risk your own position for someone you don't know all that well. Think about the way your friend acts when they're around you. For example, if they're always late, that could be a bad sign, as they always be late for work, too. Alternatively, maybe you've noticed that they always seem to not have enough money, which could mean they don't manage their money well; that can be a bad sign for how well they manage all aspects of their life, including work. Being friends with someone and working with them are two totally different things. A small, annoying habit as a friend can turn into a much larger annoyance with a coworker. Think about whether you could spend significantly more time around the person before deciding whether to recommend them. If you can't in good conscience say the person is a good fit for the job, you should not offer to put in a good word. You could tell your friend you don't feel like you're in a good position to refer them for the position or simply say you don't think they're a good fit.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Ask the person if they're serious about the job. Pore over their work history. Make sure you can actually vouch for the friend. Base part of your judgment on your interactions. Judge whether you could work with the person. Bow out if it doesn't feel right.

Article: In general, there are two overall types of beans: shell beans and snap beans. Both types can grow in either the pole- or bush-style, but the pods of the beans are what make them unique. Shell beans are primarily removed from their pod to be eaten, and are consumed fresh or dried to save for later. Snap beans are eaten inside their pod, and are only eaten fresh (not dried for later use). You can grow multiple styles of these beans directly adjacent to one another, because bean plants are self-pollinating and won't cross-contaminate each other. Popular shell beans include black beans, fava beans, black-eyed peas, garbanzo beans, and kidney beans. Popular snap beans include snap (green) beans, adzuki beans, mung beans, asparagus beans, and scarlet-runner beans. Pole beans are a type of beans that are vining and must be supported with a trellis or pole. Pole beans grow an average of 5- to 6-feet tall, and can grow either shell or snap bean. Pole beans generally thrive in cooler summer temperatures, as low as 50F (10C) in the summer. In the US, they thrive in the northern states. You can use whatever support system (trellis, pole, fence, arbor, etc.) that you want for pole beans. Bush beans are a type of beans that grow in off a bush, and do not need a trellis or pole for support. Generally, bush beans grow best in warm environments with summer temperatures reaching above 100F (38C). In the US, they thrive in the Southern states. Bush beans should be planted in large rows, requiring much more space than pole beans. A variety of bush beans called 'half-runners' is a bush/pole hybrid, and may require some support or placement near a fence for stabilization.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
