Q: If you know you will need to stay awake for a long period, make sure to get plenty of rest beforehand. The best plan is to sleep very well the night before, but even a short nap before having to stay awake can help. If you are staying up so that you can work at a computer or other in another situation where you concentrate on something for long periods, make sure to give your eyes a break. Every twenty minutes or so, set aside a minute to look away from the screen to rest your eyes. This helps you retain your focus and resist fatigue. A brief nap can actually increase your energy and alertness when you are trying to stay awake. However, you should only nap for 5-25 minutes, and you should not take more than one nap a day. Make sure to set an alarm clockor severalso that you will wake up from your nap. You may also feel groggy when you first wake up from your nap, so give yourself some time to get back to normal. If you can't fall asleep, even closing your eyes and resting for 10 minutes can reinvigorate you. Even if you plan well ahead of time, staying awake for 24 hours or more will leave you feeling very fatigued. However, some research shows that you can make up for a lack of sleep by sleeping more afterwards. The day or night after you stay awake for a long period, give yourself the opportunity to sleep longer than usual. Most adults need 7-8 hours of sleep a night.
A: Plan ahead. Rest your eyes. Take a short nap. Repay your sleep debt afterwards.

Article: Don't let a grudge fester inside of you. Immediately call attention to their tactics. Let them know that you are not happy with what they are doing. Make eye contact and use a firm, clear voice. By being assertive, you will establish that you are serious about what you are talking about. Asking is a very indirect, polite way of calling attention to their habits. If you have tried talking through the problem and failed, give your friend a firm, direct "Stop." This may jar them and express just how upset you are with the situation. Call attention to previous times when you pointed out their bad behavior to reinforce how their pattern of bullying has persisted. Try saying, "Hey. I asked you to stop pulling pranks on me. I talked to you last time, and then we talked privately, and you said you understood. Now I'm telling you: I'm not going to put up with it any more. Stop it." Some people may respond with anger or crying in an attempt to guilt you for calling them out on their rude behavior. You should remain strong and calm in the face of such emotional manipulation. You can apologize for upsetting them, but you should not back down. #* You can say, "I'm sorry that this is upsetting for you, but when you put me down, I feel the same way that you are feeling now." If the friendship turns verbally abusive, you may need to seek outside help. Because the abuse is coming from a trusted friend, it can be difficult to find support groups that will boost your confidence and provide advice. If you are still in school, approach your parents or a teacher for help mediating the situation. If you are in college, try going to your university's counselling services for assistance. In the workplace, ask your boss or HR to intervene. Outside of the workplace, you can find friends, significant others, or counsellors who can help you navigate the difficult situation. Venting to another person can help give you perspective, and it will also help you process your emotions so that you can confront your bullying friend without crying or yelling. Try not to consult a friend who is also friends with your frenemy. They may try to defend your bully or they may tell your bully what you said in an innocent attempt to patch your relationship. Try to find someone who is distant from the situation. They can provide a clear-headed and objective perspective on the matter.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Respond immediately. Tell them to stop, don't ask. Remain strong even if they appear upset. Seek help from a trusted authority.

Problem: Article: Allow an extra 10 to 12 inches (254 mm to 304 mm) for twisting the wire to make circular scrolls and to wrap the wire holders around the base. Hold it tight, so that the wire curls. Continue bending it inward until you form a circle. Continue doing this until you notice a circular pattern forming. Once you form 5 to 6 circles, discontinue making the circles and instead gently bend the remaining wire inward and allow the remaining wire to hang down. Once you complete this, you can begin working on the base of the wire photo holder.
Summary: Cut the chicken wire to the desired length. Take 1 end of the wire at the tip and bend it inward. Pull the wire inward with the fingers. Grab another piece of wire and continue making the circles until you make 4 or 5 of picture holder scrolls.

Q: There is nothing worse than getting a question marked as incorrect simply because the teacher couldn't read your handwriting. Remember that your teacher has many tests to grade, so the less time s/he has to spend grading your test, the happier s/he will be and this might reflect in his or her grading choices. For example, drawing spaghetti-line intersecting lines from column A to column B is likely to be marked down by a teacher who also has 74 other tests to mark. Similarly, print don't write; you don't want to get something marked wrong just because the teacher can't decipher your sloppy handwriting. Don't make your Ts look like Fs; spell out True and False. You might get partial credit, if you did everything right but just made a silly mistake right at the end. Partial credit is always better than no credit. So show your work as you go so your teacher can see that you know at least some of the material and got it right. This step is only useful for solving math questions on an exam. Keep a rhythm of underlining words you don't know and circling questions that you get stuck on. Never come to a complete halt you should always be writing, reading, or turning a page. The important thing is not to get frustrated and just quit. You only have a limited amount of time, so you need to make every moment count. If you struggle with a particular problem or section, skip it! You can always come back to it later. And this way you'll be making the most of your time to ensure you get through the entire test. A good rule of thumb to follow when writing an essay for an exam is the rule of three. It usually works better to discuss (or list or...) three things about the subject. Include many more and you get bogged down in too much detail. Any fewer and you are probably leaving something important out. It is important to move through the test in a way that will benefit you and make the most of the time you have. Don't just start the test and hope you finish in time. If you have both multiple choice and essay questions, do this: Read the essay questions first. Write down any notes, but, do not answer them yet. Begin answering the multiple choice questions. While you are doing so, your brain will be gathering information contained in these questions that will help you answer the essays. If needed, write brief notes that you can use later for the essays. Once you have all the multiple choice questions answered (and, you will have checked one box for each of them), then do the essay questions, beginning with the easiest. When it comes to multiple choice questions, it is always better to guess than to leave it blank. A blank answer is an automatic wrong answer, while a guess (especially an educated guess) gives you at least a chance at getting it right. Here are some tips for answering multiple choice questions: The longest answer is usually the correct answer because the correct answer requires more qualifying language to be indisputably correct than the incorrect answers. Answers that contain words like always or never are almost always incorrect because most truths don't exist as absolutes. Try eliminating one or two answers that you know for a fact are wrong. There is almost always one answer that is obviously incorrect and then another one or two that you can guess about. Eliminating wrong answers will greatly increase your chances of guessing the right answer from the remaining choices. Pay attention to the answers of surrounding questions. Even randomly generated tests tend to not repeat answers often. So, if you know the answer to number 1 is A and the answer to number 3 is also A, it is highly unlikely that the answer to number 2 will be A as well.
A:
Make it easy for the teacher to grade your test. Show intermediate results. Go through the test steadily. Remember the rule of three. Work strategically. Answer multiple choice questions smartly.
