INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The key is a small box that identifies the symbols or colors that you used throughout your map. These will help the viewer to understand what a type of line or mark means, as well as why you chose to use a particular color. Be sure to include every symbol you used in your key, so that you don't confuse the viewers. The key is sometimes also called a legend. The scale designates how many miles/kilometers are represented in a square inch/centimeter on the map. You can create a scale by drawing a small ruler on the bottom that shows how much distance is portrayed in a small section of area. You may also add an inset map of a zoomed in or zoomed out portion to show the scale more accurately. If you'd rather, you can add a ratio for your scale instead of drawing anything (such as 1": 100 miles). You can show the orientation of your map by adding a compass rose on some portion of the blank space. This will show the way the directions work, such as North/South and East/West. This is particularly helpful if the orientation of your map is non-traditional, such as having North located near the bottom. Latitude and longitude lines may not need to be used on a fantasy map, but are almost always required on a true-to-life map. These lines divide the map vertically and horizontally, so that specific locations can be found by looking at coordinates within these lines. Be sure that these lines are perfectly straight and evenly spaced. The area shown on maps, both physical and political, often change over time (even in a fantasy map). Therefore, you will need to make note of the time or date that the map is depicting somewhere on the page. You may also want to include the date that the map was originally drawn, although it is more important to make note of the date range the map depicts. You may be interested in writing a few explanatory notes on your map somewhere. These are not required, but are particularly helpful if your map is not a traditional set-up or if it is a fantasy map you have created. These traditionally go along the very bottom border of the map, so that the reader knows they are not meant to match up with a specific location on the map.

SUMMARY: Create a key. Add a scale. Show the orientation. Add latitude and longitude lines. Give a time/date. Add any further explanatory notes.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can make an ice pack using two parts water and one part alcohol. The alcohol will prevent the water from completely freezing. To start, mix your water and rubbing alcohol together in a mixing bowl. Two parts water to one part alcohol means for every two units of water, there should be one unit of alcohol. For example, if you're using two cups of water, use one cup of alcohol. If you don't have rubbing alcohol, you can pick some up at a drug store. Be sure to keep the rubbing alcohol mixture away from infants and small children. Rubbing alcohol can be dangerous when ingested and may irritate the eyes. Choose a Ziploc bag that's the right size for the ice pack you want. Pour the water and alcohol mixture into the bag. Go slowly to avoid spilling any of the mixture. You may want to lay a towel down below where you're adding the water alcohol mixture to catch any that accidentally drips. It's a good idea to double bag for added strength. This will not diminish the effectiveness of the ice pack. Plastic bags should also be kept out of reach of children, and used as part of an ice pack only when supervised. Plastic bags pose a suffocation risk to unattended children. You want to make sure there is no air in the bag before you freeze it. Use your hands to press out any excess air before zipping the bag closed. If you have a vacuum sealer, use this to remove excess air from the bag. Place the bag in the refrigerator. In about 12 hours, it should be semi-frozen. You can now use the ice pack to ice anywhere you're sore.
Summary: Mix the water and rubbing alcohol. Add the mixture to a Ziploc bag. Remove any excess air. Refrigerate the bag for 12 hours.

As you read, write down relevant information. The tactile act of writing will help you remember the information better. For example, if you are reading about Islam, write down the five tenets of Islam. You can also underline concepts, or write down ideas that come to your mind as you read. Try to only highlight important and relevant information. For example, highlight just a few key words on a page. Before you highlight something, ask yourself, "Does this information fulfill my purpose for reading the material?" If the answer is no, then it is best to not highlight it. Associate new information with information you already know. By associating new information with information you already know, your brain will store the new information in your long-term memory bank. For example, if Thomas Jefferson was born in the same month as your mom, by linking his birthday to the birthday of someone you know, you will be able to remember the date better. Creating mental pictures for the content you read will help you remember the content better than just reading the content without any mental images. Make mental pictures of important events, concepts, or people. For example, remember an important date, such as when a battle began, by imagining the battle in your head with the date in big letters. You could also try drawing out the battle scene and writing the date of when it began and ended underneath it. If you are an auditory learner, try reading important material out loud. The tactile act of speaking and hearing the material will enable you to remember the material better. Particularly, read the important information you have underlined, as well as answers to questions out loud. You can also use word association to remember important facts. For example, create rhymes or songs to help you remember important information. While reading the material, ask yourself, "How does this material fit into what I already know and do not know?" "Why did the author mention this?" "Do I understand this concept or word?" "Where is the evidence for this statement?" or, "Do I agree with the author's conclusions?" By asking and answering these questions, you will be able to remember relevant information much better.

One-sentence summary -- Take notes. Highlight important concepts. Link the material to something you know. Think in pictures. Read out loud. Ask yourself questions about the material.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Of course you want to look attractive in front of your crush. There is nothing attractive about seeing the half-chewed food you are about to swallow. Read for more tips on chewing with your mouth closed. Practice by chewing gum and making sure you keep your mouth closed. Take smaller bites which fit better in your mouth and don't require you to open too wide. Eat softer foods which require less bite to get them down. Talking with your mouth full makes your words a mumbly mess while showing off your half-chewed food. No matter how great of a quick quip of a response you have to what someone just said, take the time to swallow before you speak. Don't feel pressured to answer questions right away. Take your time to chew and swallow. This will also keep you from accidentally choking, or spitting food at your crush, either of which could be devastating! If someone asks you a question while your mouth is full, put your finger up to signal you need a minute to swallow. Model good etiquette by not asking anyone questions when they have their mouth full. You can even stop yourself mid-question and say, "Sorry, I'll wait until you're done eating." If you do take a bite that is too big, or start to cough while you are chewing, grab your napkin and cover your mouth. This will hide any unsightly chewing and if you cough some food out, you can catch it in your napkin.

SUMMARY:
Chew with you mouth closed. Swallow before you talk. Cover your mouth with a napkin.
