Article: As noted earlier, the taste of the cantaloupe will not change when you ripen it off the vine since its flesh does not contain starches capable of converting to sugars. The texture, color, and juiciness of the fruit can improve, though, so this process is still beneficial if you have a freshly harvested mature melon or one that is only slightly unripe. Use a brown paper bag that is large enough to fit the cantaloupe with a little extra room. The fruit should not be squeezed into the bag too tightly. Ideally, you should leave a little room for airflow inside the bag. Make sure that you close the top of the bag when you are ready to let the melon begin ripening. The closed paper bag traps the ethylene gas produced by the cantaloupe as it ripens. The production of ethylene gas increases in the presence of additional ethylene gas, so keeping the gas concentrated within the space of the bag speeds up the ripening process. You need to use a paper bag instead of a plastic one. Paper bags are porous, so carbon dioxide can escape and oxygen can enter. Without at least this much airflow, the cantaloupe can begin to ferment. If you place a ripe banana or ripe apple in the bag, even more ethylene gas will be produced inside the space of the bag, and the ripening process will speed up even more. Bananas and apples produce notably high amounts of ethylene gas once they ripen, making them better options than most other fruits. Usually, the process will only take about two days, if not quicker. Make sure that the place you store the melon is neither excessively cold or excessively hot. You should also avoid areas that are heavy in moisture or particularly drafty. Check on the progress of the cantaloupe throughout the process to make sure that it has not ripened early.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Know what to expect. Place the melon in a brown paper bag. Consider placing a banana or apple in the bag. Leave the melon out at room temperature until ripe.

Problem: Article: Lay your paper vertically so you can fit the entire tower on your sheet. Use a pencil and ruler to make a straight vertical line in the center of the page to use as your guide. Since the Eiffel Tower is symmetrical, it will look the same on both sides of the line. Make sure there's a small gap between the top and bottom of the page and the center line so you have room to draw the tip and legs of the tower. Work lightly so you can easily erase your marks if you make a mistake. You can work with your paper horizontally, but you won't be able to draw your tower as tall as you would if it was vertical. The top of the Eiffel Tower has a viewing platform and antenna that are shaped like a square and triangle when you look at them from the front. Draw in a small square that's about the size of your thumb nail at the top so the line goes through the middle of it. Once you have the square drawn, put a triangle with a steep point on top of it for the antenna. Don't draw the square and triangle too big or else you won't be able to draw the rest of the tower proportionally correct. Find the halfway point of the center guide and make a narrow horizontal rectangle that's about twice the width of the square. Then find the halfway point between that rectangle and the bottom of the line so you know where to place the second rectangle. Make the second rectangle about twice the length of the first one. Place your pencil on one of the bottom corners of the square on top. Draw a curved line down so it goes through the top corner of the upper rectangle and ends at the top corner of the lower rectangle. Repeat the process from the other bottom corner of the square on the opposite side of your tower. Don't extend the curved lines all the way to the bottom of the page since the legs on the bottom of the Eiffel Tower are straighter. Start your lines about a third of the way down the center guide for your tower. Draw a line on one side of the guide so it follows the same curve as the line you just drew. End the curved line so it's about a third of the way in from the end of the bottom rectangle. Draw another curved line on the opposite side of the guide following the curve on that side. It's okay if your curves aren't perfectly parallel with one another since the Eiffel Tower starts to get wider near the bottom. Start your first line in one of the bottom corners of the lower rectangle, and extend it down away from the center guide. Once the end lines up with the bottom of the center guide, stop drawing the angle. Start the next angled line a third of the way from the end of the rectangle. When the ends of the angles line up, connect them with a straight horizontal line. Repeat the process on the other side of the tower. Remember the Eiffel Tower is symmetrical so the left and right side should look the same once you're finished. The Eiffel Tower has curved supports between the legs to keep it sturdy. Start the curved line about a third of the way down the leg and make it arch up toward the center of the bottom rectangle. Make the curve symmetrical across the center guide to connect the legs. Don't let the top of the curve touch the bottom of the rectangle. Start from the tip of the tower and work your way down toward the legs to split them into equally sized rectangles. As you get closer to the bottom, allow a little more space between the horizontal lines to make them further apart. When you're finished, the legs should have 3-4 rectangles, the area between the viewing platforms will have 3-4 rectangles, and the area between the top viewing platform and tip will have 15-16 small rectangles. Put an X between each of the lines you just drew to add the cross supports to the tower's girders. Make sure the center of the X is in the middle of each rectangle so the tower looks correct. Once you fill in the rest of the triangles, your Eiffel Tower is finished! You can also add small X-shapes along the viewing platforms and on the bottom arch if you want to add more detail to your drawing.
Summary: Draw a straight guide line down the middle of your paper. Put a square with a triangle on it on top of the line. Sketch in 2 horizontal rectangles perpendicular to the line for the viewing platforms. Make curved lines from the corners of the square to the corners of the bottom rectangle. Draw curved lines that are parallel to the first ones you drew so they come from the center. Put in 45-degree angled lines coming down from the bottom rectangle. Add an upside-down curve between the tower's legs to connect them. Sketch horizontal lines between the parallel curves to make the girders. Draw an X in each rectangle of the girders. Finished.

Using only non-toxic paints that won't harm your dog, you can paint the outside of the house to match your own, or pick a fun theme like an underwater scene. If you have small children, it can be fun to allow them to paint the dog house as an art project. To keep the dog house extra dry, you can cover the entire roof with asphalt-impregnated roofing paper, or tar paper. Once you've covered the house, you can then add shingles for a traditional, sophisticated look. Keep your pup comfy by adding a blanket, dog bed, or piece of carpet inside. To add carpet, simply cut a piece of carpet to dimensions one inch smaller than the floor panel and secure it to the floor. Use wood glue if you want the carpet to be permanent, or duct tape if you want to be able to replace the carpet at a later time. Hang a name plate with your pooch's name over the front of the opening using a small nail and any type of material sturdy enough to withstand the elements. You can get personalized plates made of metal, make and paint a plate out of wood, or even hang spare dog tags. Make sure that the nail does not poke out to the inside of the house. Attach small hooks to the outside of the dog house to serve as a place to keep your dog's leash or any other toys.
