Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Stay home so you won’t risk infecting others. Rest so your body can recover. Take over-the-counter pain and fever reducers. Use a humidifier to soothe your airways and thin out mucus. Consume lots of fluids to help your body heal.

Answer: If you have respiratory symptoms, you may be contagious, so don’t leave your home while you’re feeling ill. Make yourself comfortable at home while you recover from your illness. Additionally, tell people that you’re sick so they won’t visit.  If you go to the doctor, wear a face mask to prevent spreading the virus. Check with your doctor to find out when it’s safe for you to return to your normal routine. You may be contagious for up to 14 days. The best thing you can do for yourself is to rest and relax while your body fights the infection. Lie down on your bed or your couch with your upper body propped up on pillows. Additionally, keep a blanket with you in case you get cold. Raising your upper body will help you avoid coughing fits. If you don’t have enough pillows, use folded blankets or towels to prop yourself up. COVID-19 often causes body aches and fever. Fortunately, an over-the-counter medicine like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), naproxen (Aleve), or acetaminophen (Tylenol) will help. Check with your doctor to make sure it’s safe for you to take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Then, take your medication as directed on the label.  Do not give aspirin to children or teens under 18 since it can cause a potentially fatal condition called Reye’s Syndrome. Don’t take more medication than the label says is safe, even if you’re not feeling better. You’ll likely have mucus drainage, and a humidifier can help. The mist from the humidifier will moisten your throat and airways, which can help thin out your mucus.  Follow the directions on your humidifier to use it safely. Wash your humidifier thoroughly with soap and water between uses so you don’t accidentally get mildew in it. Fluids help your body fight off the infection and thin out your mucus. Drink water, hot water, or tea to help keep you hydrated. Additionally, eat broth-based soups to increase your fluid intake. Warm fluids are your best bet and may also help soothe your sore throat. Try hot water or tea with a squeeze of lemon and a spoonful of honey.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use a whisk or fork to rapidly beat your egg yolks. Temper the yolks. Use a thermometer. Stir the tempered egg yolk mixture into the sauce.

Answer: Thickening with egg yolks provides a nuanced rich flavor. Sauces like hollandaise are classically thickened this way. Egg yolk can be more difficult to work with than some other thickening agents because overheating will cause the egg yolk to curdle. Beat the yolks until they appear consistently smooth and slightly frothy.  Use 2 to 3 egg yolks per cup of liquid sauce you want to thicken. The more egg yolks you use, the thicker the resulting sauce will be. First, bring the beaten egg yolks to room temperature to prepare them for tempering. Don’t try to speed up this process by using heat. Take some of your hot sauce that you want to thicken, and add it gradually to the beaten egg yolks. This will slowly raise the temperature of the yolks and prevent them from curdling. To thicken with egg yolks, it is best to use a thermometer while you are tempering the yolks. You want to add enough sauce to the yolks to bring them to the same temperature as your sauce. For the best thickening, this temperature should stay between 149 (65 degrees Celsius) and 158 degrees Fahrenheit (70 degrees Celsius). Stir until the two are blended. After you add your egg yolks, avoid letting the sauce get above 190 degrees Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius). If the temperature of your sauce is too high, your egg yolks could curdle.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Establish a goal. Find common ground. Compromise. Address all issues in the solution. Follow-up on the solution.

Answer: When everyone is on the same page about what the issue is, then you can go about finding a solution. The steps for establishing a goal are similar to defining the problem:  Clearly state your ideal solution to this issue. Ask the other person to do the same. Again, listen carefully and don't make assumptions. The other person may not be aware of his own goal. Ask similar questions to the ones you asked yourself prior to the conflict so they can establish one. Encourage him or her to be as specific as possible. When everyone has expressed a desired solution, find compatibility in the responses. This will ease the process to finding a solution.  Disagreements tend to magnify differences and obscure similarities. Break this trend by looking for similarities, no matter how small they are. Any common ground is a starting point to build from. Use phrases like, "Okay, so it looks like we agree on..." to make it clear that there is common ground between the two parties. This realization can make people more willing to cooperate and compromise. Take a workplace argument for example. In defining their problem, both parties have stated that they don't enjoy working in close proximity to each other because it is a distraction. From that common ground, a solution can be an office or desk change to resolve the disagreement. It is very likely you and the other person won't agree completely on a solution. Using the common ground you've established, work out a solution that is acceptable to both parties.  Talk through everyone's ideas for an ideal solution. Find out what is most important to the other person and clearly state what is important to you. This will show what everyone is willing and unwilling to compromise on. Remember that in a compromise, neither party is completely satisfied. Be flexible enough to work with the other person and come to a solution acceptable for everyone. Take the previous workplace disagreement as an example. Both parties don't want to work in the same area. But there aren't any offices available for a relocation. So the two workers agree that they will not interact with each other until they take breaks. Neither party has gotten exactly what it wants, but the solution is acceptable enough to allow them to complete their work effectively. Leaving anything unresolved is only a temporary fix, and unsolved problems will likely cause more trouble in the future. Make your solution as complete as possible to avoid anymore issues. In a few weeks, revisit the issue and see if your solution is working. If there are still problems, analyze the issue again and see if you can design a better solution.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Shop from reputable businesses. Beware of deals that are too good to be true. Compare a suspected counterfeit to the genuine item.

Answer:
Whether you’re shopping in-person or online, you can safely avoid the risk of counterfeit goods by only purchasing from well-known, established retailers. Temporary, unknown, or suspicious businesses are more likely to sell counterfeits—even if they display manufacturer logos on their storefront or website.  For example, while you’re guaranteed to find real Apple products at the Apple store, you may not find the genuine article at a temporary mall kiosk. If you’re not certain if a business is legitimate or not, search for the business name online. Nearly all genuine businesses have a website. Next, look for user reviews: if others are calling the products and goods “fake,” or “a rip-off,” you can be certain they’re counterfeit. When in doubt, avoid a potentially shady business. Not all fakes sell at lower prices than their genuine counterparts, but an unreal bargain is one of the surest signs of a counterfeit product. Ask yourself how someone can sell, for example, a brand new $140 tool for $50. Chances are, it's because the product is a fake. Odds are you purchase many of the same products or brands over and over again. Pay attention to the look and design of similarly-branded products that you already own. This will make you better at spotting a counterfeit, because you'll have something to compare it to. Look for any deviations in the workmanship and in the text on the item, either the copy or the font and text placement. If you're purchasing a brand that is new to you or a product that you don't frequently buy, compare it to the same product at other stores.
