Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Have a conversation about how often you should talk. Videochat and talk on the phone instead of just texting. Be a good listener. Try to be positive and uplifting. Make future plans together.

Answer: During an unprecedented situation like the coronavirus outbreak, it's important that you and your partner have honest conversations about what you both expect from the relationship. Try asking them how often they'd like to hear from you, and let them know what your needs are, as well. For instance, you might say something like, "I hate I won't get to see you while this is going on. I was thinking we could call each other every night before bed, but you can always text me any time you want. What do you think?" Texting can be a good way to stay in touch with the person you like, but it's not very personal. Connecting with someone else can be a great way to help overcome some of the isolation and anxiety that come along with a disaster like a coronavirus outbreak, so try to make time for at least a short phone call or video chat each day. Your voice and facial expressions convey a lot more emotion than just a wall of text, so they're a lot more effective at having reassuring or romantic conversations. When you do get a chance to chat with your crush, don't just talk about what you have going on. Make sure to ask open-ended questions that may help your partner open up about what they're feeling and let out any frustrations or sadness that they have. They'll likely appreciate the chance to talk about themselves, especially if they're cooped up at home. For instance, you might ask something like, "What's the first place you're going to go when things get back to normal?" It can be hard to keep an upbeat attitude if you're feeling stressed, but remember that everyone else is feeling that way, too. However, if you can bring a positive energy to your partner, they're going to appreciate and value you, which may bring the two of you closer together. It's still fine to express any concerns or fears you have, or to talk about your circumstances if things aren't going well. Just try not to let that be the focus of the conversation. Since life has changed so much lately, it's too soon right now to imagine what the world will look like after the coronavirus outbreak. But that doesn't mean you have to shut down any talk of plans altogether. Chances are, things will slowly start returning to normal soon enough, so have fun daydreaming about the things you'll do together when you get the chance. For instance, you might talk about the places you'll go out to eat, fun activities you'd like to try, or how much you're both looking forward to being affectionate with each other again. Perhaps you could even suggest a place that you two could visit together.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Be consistent in your language. Make sure you have clearly explained your thoughts. Round out your examples. Be concise. End with a brief conclusion. Proofread your paper carefully before you turn it in.

Answer: If you refer to a concept by a certain term in your paper, use that same term consistently. For instance, if you are discussing Harry Frankfurt's first-order desires vs second-order desires, refer to them that way throughout the whole paper, rather than switching to different terminology such as “primary wants” or “inner desires”. Read through your paper from beginning to end to ensure that it is easy to follow and that each thought is fully explained. Make sure each example connects to the point you were making immediately before, then transition into the next argument. Explain yourself fully, but do so as concisely as possible. Use simple prose whenever you can, so that the reader is easily able to follow you from point to point. As with any paper, you should end with a concluding paragraph. Finish with a brief summary of the points you made in the body of the paper and a restating of your thesis. You should not offer any new information in your concluding paragraph; all of the information you want included in your paper should be presented in the body. Try reading your paper sentence by sentence starting at the end and working to the beginning. This will help you read more slowly and you'll be more likely to catch any errors.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Prepare the ube. Melt butter in large pan. Add the milk and coconut milk. Add the other ingredients. Stir for at least 30 minutes. Add some of the extra butter. Grease a few containers. Pour in the ube halaya and let cool. Serve or refrigerate. Store leftovers in the fridge.

Answer: Fresh ube has the strongest flavor, but frozen grated ube is easier to find in Asian markets outside the Philippines. Whichever you choose, get it ready for cooking:   Fresh ube: Simmer whole or in large chunks until soft but not mushy, about 30–45 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Peel the ube (throwing away the peel), then grate the rest of it.  Frozen grated ube: Leave it at room temperature until it thaws, then press it hard to squeeze out water. Pour out the water. Find a wide, deep pan large enough to hold all your ingredients. Heat the pan over medium-heat, then melt ½ cup (125g) butter or margarine. Pour in 1 can each of evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and coconut milk. You can also try these variations instead:  Make it extra sweet with a second can of condensed milk instead of the coconut milk. Try a less traditional, vegan recipe by leaving out the milk and using just one can of coconut milk. (Using less liquid isn't a problem, since the mixture is supposed to boil down anyway.) If you're not nostalgic for the taste of evaporated milk, you might prefer fresh milk instead. Add all of the grated ube plus 1 tsp (5mL) vanilla extract. Most cooks also add 1 cup (200g) sugar. You can skip this if you prefer a stronger ube taste, since there's already sugar in the sweetened condensed milk. You can use white granulated sugar, brown sugar, or caster sugar. Simmer the mixture over medium-low heat. Stir constantly to prevent it burning on the bottom of the pan. The ube halaya will gradually get thicker and thicker. It's ready once it's thick enough to cling to the spoon, about the consistency of thick cake batter. Prepare for an arm workout, since this usually takes 30–50 minutes. If the coconut milk starts to curdle, reduce the heat and stir more slowly. In the last five minutes of cooking, add an extra tablespoon (15mL) butter to make the ube halaya shiny. Mix it in for a couple minutes, then turn off the heat and let cool slightly. Use coconut oil instead if you've made latik, as described below. Brush the last bit of butter onto llanera flan molds or any other heat-safe container, to prevent sticking. If you don't plan to finish the jam within a couple days, use sterilized glass containers. Spoon the thick purple mixture into the greased containers. Smooth out the surface with your spoon. Let them sit on the counter until the halaya is warm, but not hot. Some people prefer it at room temperature, while others like to cool it for a couple hours in the fridge. Either way, here are some serving ideas:  Sprinkled with latik (see below) or toasted coconut flakes  Spread over bread Sprinkled with cheese Store the rest of the jam in a covered container in the refrigerator. In sterilized containers, it will stay good about 7–10 days.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Thread your finger through the pulled loops. Pull a new loop through the threaded loops. Tighten the finger loops until they lie flat. Create new finger loops. Repeat the pattern to your desired length.

Answer:
Slide the index finger of your non-dominant hand into the sideways through loop, then continue slipping it through all three finger loops in consecutive order. The finger loops should twist clockwise as you thread your finger through them so that the side lying closest to the working cord faces in your direction. Create a new loose loop from the excess working cord, then pull it through the loops threaded along your finger. This loop should be directly next to the buckle and around two times the width of the buckle. Essentially, you're starting a second row that will be identical to the first. The finger currently threaded through your four previous loops serves the same purpose as the buckle bar did when creating your first row. Remove your finger from the loops. Tighten the loops starting from the side where the loop is jutting out (the outside), and moving towards the other side (the inside). To tighten each loop, gently tug on the back side of the loop lying directly next to it. To tighten the innermost loop, tug on the working side of the cord sticking out from the bundle. Once you’ve tightened the finger loops down, you may need to pull the through-loop back towards the outside, if it was pulled in by your tugging. As you did before, ease away the newly wrapped loops to reveal the working portion of paracord. Use a sharp tool to lift paracord up from beneath the wrapped loops, creating the appropriate number of new finger-sized loops. The number of finger loops created here should match the number created for your previous row. These loops form the base of your next pattern row. They should stand upright while the previously created through loop lies perpendicular and sideways. After you’ve created your new finger loops, follow the steps above, starting by threading your finger through the pulled loops. Repeat the previously described pattern steps to create additional rows in the same manner. Continue making rows until the belt reaches your desired length.  Note that the final length should roughly match the circumference of your waist, minus the length of the buckle belt. For example, if your waist is 38 inches (96.5 cm) around and the buckle belt is 2 inches (5 cm) long when snapped together, then the length of the paracord portion should be about 36 inches (91.4 cm). For each row, pull a new loop from the working side of the paracord through the four base loops, which should be threaded on your finger. Tighten the base loops over the new through loop, then pull up three more finger loops from beneath the row. The one through loop and three finger loops will be the base for the next row.
