Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Evaluate a first-degree burn. Identify a second-degree burn. Seek treatment immediately for fourth degree burns.

Answer: First degree burns are the least severe. They are characterized by redness, swelling, and mild to moderate pain. First-degree burns are very common, and they are the result of brief contact with something hot (such as a stove, hot pan, or the sun). First-degree burns affect only the outermost layer of skin, and can usually be treated at home.  Symptoms to look for include:  Red skin that is painful to touch. Skin that tingles. Skin that is dry to the touch. Slight swelling.   Very severe sunburn or any first-degree burn that covers a large area of your body should be looked at by a doctor. Second-degree burns also damage the layer under the top layer of skin. These burns result from more extended contact with hot items or prolonged sun exposure. Many second-degree burns can still be treated at home. In addition to the symptoms of first-degree burns, characteristics of second-degree burns include: blotchy skin, blisters, and mild to severe pain. However, you should seek medical attention right away if:  Your second-degree burn is on your hands, feet, groin, or face. Your burn results in severe blisters. The second-degree burn covers large portions of your body. Fourth degree burns are very serious, and most likely a person who has one will be in shock. These burns destroy both the skin layers and underlying tissues, such as muscles and tendons. These burns are an emergency situation that requires immediate medical treatment. It's likely the person won't initially feel pain, as they will be in shock. Later, their recovery will be more painful.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Place the tofu chunks into cups. Add the sago pearls. Pour in the arnibal syrup. Stir the ingredients. Serve the taho warm.

Answer: Dish out the chunks of tofu into a cup, or several cups if you are serving multiple people. Try to distribute the tofu evenly.  Taho is often served in clear plastic cups, though it also can be served in bowls if you wish. The visual aspect of the taho is part of what makes this treat so enjoyable! Even if you are serving in a bowl, try to use a glass bowl so that you can see the swirl of colors inside. If you waited to assemble the taho and the tofu or syrup got cold, heat them for 40 seconds or so in the microwave. Taho is meant to be eaten warm. Take the bowl of sago pearls out of the refrigerator. Pour out the water, and press the pearls lightly with a paper towel so that they aren't moist. Then dish out the pearls into the cups. Include a generous amount in each cup. After you have added the tofu and the sago pearls, pour in the arnibal syrup. Again, use a generous amount so that every bite of the taho will include the sweet syrup. Use a long spoon to gently press the tofu aside and allow the arnibal syrup to trickle down to the bottom of the cup. Also try to push some of the sago pearls toward the middle of the cup so that they aren't all at the top.  Be gentle as you push aside the tofu. You don't want to scramble the tofu or cut it so that it loses its shape. Instead, try to prod it aside so that the syrup and sago pearls can get mixed into the middle and bottom of the cup. Mixing the taho ensures that each bite is equally enjoyable. After you have assembled the taho, serve it immediately while it's still warm! Eat the taho with a spoon, and enjoy this light, flavorful treat!


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Identify key features both on the map and in front of you. Learn to use a compass with topographical maps Transpose your direction of travel onto the map. Learn to take bearings. Learn to triangulate your position, when lost.

Answer:
For most maps that you'll use, you only need to do a few things to travel. Locate your position on the map currently by identifying landmarks that you can see and landmarks on the map, and then anticipating your next movements based on those indicators. Using a map involves keeping your head up and looking around just as much as it does reading the lines on the page.  For example, if you can see on a sign that you're 20 miles from Westville, locate Westville on your map and you'll have a rough idea of where you are. If you don't know what direction you're traveling, look at the cities on either side of Westville and pay attention to which one you pass first, so you'll know which direction you're coming from. If you're using a trail guide or a hiking map, use intersections to get a sense of where you are. If you come to a trailhead of "West Loop Trail" and "Smith Trail," find that intersection point on the map and then you'll know where you are. Orient yourself to the map by looking at the direction each trail heads out from your position and choosing your route according to where you want to go. You can also use a map to plot your route ahead of time and, if your plan is detailed enough, you can keep the map in the glove box. If you need to drive to the airport, you can plot your route and write it out, turn by turn, and keep it on the steering wheel for quick access. . More complicated maps generally require the use of a compass to orient yourself properly and understand how to position yourself in relation to the coordinates you find. If you're lost, or you're trying to find your way from one point on a map to another, you need to either find a landmark physically and orient yourself accordingly, use a compass, or use a GPS.   If you've got a GPS, you can also use topographical maps to plot a general route based on your precise coordinates. Use the longitude and latitude markers on the map to try to figure out where you are, read the terrain, and then plot a course to get where you're going. Even if you have a GPS, it's still much easier to use a compass to quickly and effective gauge where you are in relation to the direction you're traveling. You can easily stay on course by using a compass. If you know where you are and need to find out how to get where you want to go, lay your map out flat and place your compass on it, so the orienting arrow of the compass points to true north.  Slide your compass so the edge of the edge passes through your current position, with the orienting arrow pointing due north. Draw a line along the compass edge, through your current position. If you maintain this bearing, your path from your current position will be along the line you just drew on your map. If you're not sure which direction to travel and need to find out, start with the map flat and your compass on it. Draw a line between your current position and where you'd like to go, then rotate the degree dial so the orienting arrow points north. This should align the compass orienting lines with the map's north-south markers.  To travel, hold the compass before you horizontally with the direction of travel arrow pointing away from you. You'll use this arrow to guide your travel. Turn your body so the north end of the magnetic needle is aligned with the orienting needle, and you'll be pointed in the right direction. If you don't know where you are and you're not sure where you need to go to get where you're going, you can figure the general area that you're in by learning to triangulate positioning. This is one of the most essential map skills in survival training. To triangulate your position, start by finding three landmarks on the map that you can see physically. Aim your direction of travel arrow at one of the landmarks, then orient the compass and the map according to the readings. Take your coordinates to transpose them onto your map, drawing three lines along the flat of the compass plate. This should create a triangle, in which should be your current position. It won't be perfect, but you'll be in the ballpark.
