INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can extend the storage time for another week if you refrigerate them in a plastic bag. The bag lessens dehydration and prolongs freshness. Simply place whole kiwis in a freezer-safe container and store them in the freezer for several months. Kiwi slices make great garnishes or additions to smoothies and other healthy treats. If you have extra kiwis on hand, you can slice them up and freeze them. Slice the kiwis and sprinkle sugar on the slices to keep them firm and flavorful. Put the sugared kiwi slices on a cookie sheet and slide the sheet into the freezer. Transfer the frozen kiwi slices from the cookie sheet into plastic freezer bags. Store them in the freezer.

SUMMARY: Keep ripened kiwi fruit in the refrigerator for as long as 7 days. Freeze whole kiwi fruit. Freeze sliced kiwi fruit.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you feel prepared to juggle your school work and a job, there are many part-time jobs that are available to high school and college students. You can work on weekends, after classes, or between them. Many college students have enough time between classes to fit a quick work shift in. Some high schools allow students to take a period off in their junior or senior year to fit an hour or two of work experience into their day. If you are in college, there may be quite a few open positions that won't even force you to commute. Ask your career center about paid tutoring opportunities, note-taking positions, student resource jobs, office assistant positions, and anything else your school relies on students to help out with. You may be able to work multiple shifts throughout the day at the same on-campus job if your classes are in the middle of the day, for instance. Friends who have jobs off-campus may know whether the restaurant, store, office, or other place of work is hiring. Ask if there are any positions that are open. Another benefit of this is the chance of carpooling or working with a friend. Be sure to consider whether your friend seems to have a good reputation at their workplace. If they are seen as a slacker, it may not help you to mention that you are their friend when you apply. Stop by bulletin boards in and near your school, whether at student centers or coffee shops nearby. Employers looking for students will often post job ads on these boards, expecting students to find them and reach out. Check regularly to make sure you see new postings as soon as they are up. Go on a reputable job website like the Craigslist jobs section, Monster, Indeed, or SimplyHired and enter keywords for the kind of work you are looking for. You can even include "student" to see if there are job descriptions that mention students specifically. Always look for jobs a little in advance of when you want to start. If you are on the hunt for a summer job, check the month before school ends and local employers will have lots of jobs with "seasonal" or "summer" in the name. Be sure to check the minimum requirements when looking for a job online. Many places will make it clear whether they are looking for students or not by requiring certain degrees.

SUMMARY: Try out a part-time job with a flexible schedule. See if your school has any open positions. Ask friends if their workplace is hiring. Look around on bulletin boards. Check job hunting websites.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Note that your dog needs to be at least two years old. This when dogs are considered to have reached adulthood. Now you will have an estimate of your dog's age in dog years. For example, if your dog is 10 years old, then his age in dogs years is 53. Because this method does not take your dog's size into consideration, it cannot be completely accurate. This calculation will be more accurate for smaller dogs than larger dogs. For example, as we calculated above, when factoring in size, a Great Dane at 10 years old is 80 in dog years, whereas this method would calculate his age in dog years to be 53. However, this method is an easy trick to calculate dog years quickly if you don't know your dog's size or are in a hurry.

SUMMARY: Take your dog's age and subtract by 2. Multiple that number by 4 and then add 21. Be aware that this calculation is just a rough estimate.
