INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Your teacher may want to assess your ability to pull in good sources and format them correctly. It's important to write your bibliography according to the instructions outlined by your teacher. Don't neglect this important step, since many teachers deduct points when students forget to include their source material. If your teacher told you a certain font size and type to use, be sure to use it. Most reports are typed in Times New Roman, 12 pt font, and double spaced. The title of the report should be centered at the top of the page. Don't forget to include your name.  Don't attempt to turn in a report formatted in extra large font to make it look longer. Teachers can see right through this tactic. If your teacher requested a handwritten report, be sure to write neatly and legibly. No matter how well-written your report is, it won't seem polished unless you make sure it is free of errors. Check for spelling errors, grammatical errors, and formatting errors. You may want to ask a family member or friend to proofread your report, too, since it can be hard to catch your own mistakes.

SUMMARY: Add the bibliography. Format your report according to instructions. Proofread your work.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Dragon fruits, unlike many other fruits, do not ripen as much after harvest and as a result should be harvested when they are almost fully ripe.  Once the color of the fruit has changed from green to yellow or red, then it is ready to harvest. The small leaves on the sides of the fruit (also known as the “wings”) will also start to fade or turn brown as the fruit ripens. You can also determine the ripeness by counting the days after the plant flowers. Typically the fruit is ripe a minimum of 27 to 33 days after the plant flowers. Proper time of harvesting is four days after the color of the fruit changes. For export purpose, however, it is important to harvest slightly sooner, a day after the color changes. You can remove the thorns by using pliers, brushing them off, or with gloves. When the fruit is ripe the needles should begin to shed anyways, and as a result they should not be too difficult to remove. However, you should always wear gloves and be cautious because the needles are very sharp. When a dragon fruit is ripe and ready to be harvested, it will detach from the plant easily by twisting a few times. If you have to pull too hard on the fruit then it is likely not ready to be harvested. Do not wait until the dragon fruit has fallen off the plant. This means that the fruit is overripe.
Summary: Harvest dragon fruits when they are close to fully ripe. Remove the thorns from the fruit before picking. Detach the dragon fruit from the vine by twisting.

Onions need plenty of water to stay healthy and grow more onions. Check the soil every day—if it feels dry to the touch, water your onion until it feels moist. Onions have a hard time competing with invasive plants, and weeds can steal their water and nutrients. Check your garden often for weeds and, if you notice any, pull them right away.  Avoid spraying weed killers around the onion, as most herbicides can kill both weeds and garden plants. Check for small insects or other pests on your onion as well and, if you see any, spray the onion with a non-toxic, plant-friendly insect repellent. Fertilizing your onion plant regularly helps it grow large, healthy bulbs. Spray the onion plant at least twice a month with a nitrogen-rich fertilizer until the onion plant's bulb starts to poke from the soil. When the bulb starts poking out of the soil, stop fertilizing the onion until you harvest it. your onion when it forms flowers. When your onion starts to grow flowers, it's ready to harvest. Loosen the soil around the onion with your shovel and pull the onion by the base of its green foliage to pull it out of the ground. On average, it takes onions grown from cuttings about 90-120 days to grow a new bulb.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Consult with a shingle designer about incorporating a design into your shingles. Try staggering blues with taupes and browns for a natural-toned roof with a cooler undertone. Ask about scalloping or layering to draw attention to your roof. Keep in mind that high-contrast colors, like gray and cream together, will highlight features of your home while low-contrast colors, like tan and brown together, tend to hide defects. Today, shingles are available in a variety of different materials. Visit a store to get a feel for all of the options, and don’t be afraid to choose a shingle type other than asphalt. Keep in mind that asphalt shingles tend to hold up well over time in various climates, while materials like clay and slate can break easily. Remember that shingles made of different materials will usually require an additional installation fee, due to their fragile nature. Low-contrast roofs are ideal for toning down the appearance of your home and making smaller houses look taller. Choose a color that appears to be a continuation of the siding to draw the eye upward. Avoid harsh colors like white or black, which can break the home into sections.  For example, if you have a ranch house with brown stone siding, choose shades of brown and taupe for the shingles. For brick houses, this might mean incorporating shades of brown and red in your roof. For houses with natural tones on the outside, stick with gray, taupe, and brown for the roof. When you’re thinking about adding a new roof, account for the features of your house that make it unique. If your roof is very visible when you’re looking at your home from the outside, take time to think about what would make those features stand out.  If you’re having trouble deciding which features to highlight, consult with an architectural designer or roofer to make a decision on your roofing color. For example, if your home has a flat roof, you might consider going for a less visually-appealing option, like concrete or simple gray asphalt.

SUMMARY:
Make a statement with the shingle design or shape. Choose clay, slate, or wooden shingles for an a unique look. Opt for a color that blends with your siding to make the house seem larger. Plan around architectural features, like dormers and sloped roofs.
