Problem: Article: Healthy poinsettias should have dark green foliage and brightly colored bracts (these are the modified red leaves which look like petals). There should be no signs of wilting or drooping and no fallen or yellowed leaves. The plant should look full and attractive and should not be crowded between other plants, as this can cause premature bract loss. It should stand two and a half times as tall as the diameter of its pot. Check the soil for dampness: if it is very wet, but the plant looks wilted, this could be an indication of root rot. Then have a look at the underside of the leaves to check for insects such as aphids and whiteflies. Do not choose a plant whose leaves are spotted and yellow. The true flowers of the poinsettia plant can be found at the base of the red colored leaves, or bracts. They should look like small, fresh buds with red or green tips. If there is a layer of yellow pollen covering the flowers, this means that the plant is more mature and will not last as long. It is possible that the plant may have been displayed this way for some time. If this is the case, the leaves may turn yellow and fall off much sooner than expected. It is important that you cover or sleeve the poinsettia before you take it home, if outside temperatures are lower than 50F (10C). If poinsettias are exposed to low outside temperatures for even a few minutes they can chill or even freeze, causing the leaves to droop and fall off. The gardening center or store where you purchase your poinsettia should be able to provide you with some form of protective covering for your trip home. Just make sure to remove the protective covering as soon as you get home, otherwise it could cause damage.
Summary: Choose a healthy-looking plant. Observe the display conditions. Check the leaves and soil. Examine the true flowers. Avoid buying poinsettias which are wrapped in paper or plastic. Be careful when bringing the plant home.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Draw the circle so it's as wide as you'd like the sphere to be. Press lightly so you can easily go back and shade in the sphere. For a little help drawing a circle, trace something round or use a compass. Determine where light hits your sphere and begin shading along the opposite side of the sphere where the shadow would fall. Then, apply a little less pressure as you shade in the curved center of the sphere. Use a light touch to shade just a little where the light would hit the sphere. For example, if light hits the top right of the sphere, press firmly along the bottom left portion of the sphere to make a shaded crescent.

SUMMARY: Make a circle using a pen or pencil. Apply heavy pressure to shade a sliver of the sphere's side and bottom.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You need to provide a one page, or at most two page, summary of the results of your marketing research. Be sure to hit all of the major points of the rest of your report in this summary. Many people will read the summary first, to get a quick overview of your results. The summary should include specific, numeric details from the rest of your report. These details should be condensed into bullet points and made prominent on the report. The summary should provide a basic account of what your company does, where it is located, what type of employees (if any) you have, and any other organizational details. Also describe your products and goals for your future products or sales. For example, if your backpack charging company had plans to expand into purse chargers or another similar product line, include these plans in your summary. This should also include the sales channels being used by your business, as well as competitors and their sales channels. Are you different? Why? If not, do you have a competitive advantage that can be exploited in your marketing and sales efforts? Your report should specify what exactly you were trying to determine in your marketing research. This could be whether or not your marketing was effective in content, whether or not it reached the right audience, whether or not it properly informed customers about your product, or any other determination you wished to make. Typically, the objective of your market research is to assess how well you are convincing people in your target audience to buy your product. You need to be making sure that you're reaching an audience that will actually be purchasing your product. If you're not doing so, explain why you think this is the case and offer suggestions for different courses of action. For example, you could be examining how well advertisements for your backpack are reaching college students, as they would be a likely audience for your product. If your ads are primarily reaching adults, who don't generally carry backpacks, this would be an issue to raise in your evaluation. This figure represents how many potential customers or visitors to your website actually purchased a product. This can be evaluated with site traffic counters. If this number is particularly low, you should offer explanations as to why this might be the case and how you can improve on it. For example, if only 1 in 20 of your site's visitors actually buy one of your backpacks, you may want to reconsider the design of your websites, the ease of purchase, or the price of your product. Your executive summary should also include a section where you explain whether or not you had any difficulty attaining the data within. This could help explain incomplete or omitted sections or topics. Sometimes, there's no way to obtain a certain set of data reliably. If this is the case, explain why it is so in your summary.
Summary: Think about the purpose of an executive summary. Describe your company. Detail the objective of your research. Evaluate how well you are reaching your intended audience. Display marketing conversion data. Admit any data collection difficulties or incomplete sections.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Fermented dairy products contain both probiotics and prebiotics. Eat 1 serving of fermented dairy products per day. Fermented dairy products include plain yogurt, cottage cheese, kefir, whey, buttermilk, leben, and creme fraiche. Look for yogurt products with the label "active cultures" on it. Choose natural yogurts over sweetened yogurts. Instead, sweeten your yogurt naturally with fruit like bananas, peaches, blueberries, and strawberries. Probiotics are microorganisms that stimulate the growth of gut flora. Prebiotics are the fibers that feed probiotics. Non-dairy fermented foods, or pickled foods, are a great alternative to fermented dairy products if you are lactose intolerant. Like fermented dairy products, pickled foods contain probiotics. Eating pickled foods consistently will help you restore your gut flora. Non-dairy fermented foods include sauerkraut, kimchi, corn relish, miso, tempeh, natto, fermented tofu, and pickled vegetables like cucumbers, beets, cabbage, and radish. Taking a probiotic supplement is another great way to restore your gut flora. Take the supplement per the instructions on the bottle. If you are already eating fermented foods to restore your gut flora, it is safe to take a probiotic supplement as well. However, you can take a supplement in place of eating fermented foods, if you do not like fermented food. Contact your doctor if you are unsure how often you should take the supplement, or if you are taking other medications. If you are taking an antibiotic, a probiotic supplement may help restore your gut flora. Probiotic supplements are formulated to treat many different conditions. If you have IBS, for instance, you might try using VSL#3. Talk to your doctor or your pharmacist about the ideal product for your specific symptoms.
Summary:
Consume fermented dairy products. Add non-dairy fermented foods to your meals 1 to 2 times per day. Take a probiotic supplement.
