Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Engage him in conversation. Dress your age. Don't focus on your youth. Don't hide your youth, either. Be yourself. Make eye contact. Touch your hair and neck. Be aware of your body language.

Answer: Although you should respect his opinions, you also want to show him that you have a mind of your own. A difference of opinion can often result in an absorbing discussion instead of an argument. What man wouldn't go crazy for a woman who can turn a disagreement into great conversation?  Relax your facial expression to let him know you're not getting worked up about any differences of opinion. Be able to laugh about how far apart you might be on an issue. If you're lucky, you might have found someone who's actually on the same page as you. In that case, celebrate! Your youth is one of your biggest assets when flirting with an older man. Use it to your advantage! When you get ready to go out at night, wear fashion styles that set you apart from older women. Of course, you shouldn't dress like a teenager. You don't want him thinking about you dragging him to One Direction concerts! Wear clothes that look good on a woman in her mid twenties or thirties, but might look a little strange on a woman in her forties. To older men, the most attractive thing about young women is that they're already at the ideal age. You don't have to try to look older or younger. You're already in the sweet spot! He sees you, and he can already tell you're a younger woman. You don't have to play up your youth to get his attention in conversation. Own your age, but don't make it the central focus of the conversation. Highlighting it repeatedly (“That's my dad's favorite song!”) might make the conversation grow tiresome for him. He might also start thinking of you as a pretty face without substance. Instead of spending your time talking about how young you are, focus instead on how mature you are for your age. It might seem like you don't have enough in common with him to hold his interest. For example, he may bring up children, mortgages, 70s music, or any number of other things you have no experience with. Don't fake your way through the conversation, pretending you understand what parenthood is like. He'll see right through it.  Make sure you don't come off as childish. You're young, but not frivolous. Instead of saying "I have no idea how mortgages work," steer the conversation toward something he wants to talk about. Ask him what he likes about home ownership, for example. Even if he focuses about how hard something is, just smile and say "I haven't experienced it yet, but I can't wait to." If he wants to share an experience with you, agree to keep an open mind: “I don't really like music from before the 80s, but I'll give it a shot if you think I'll like it.” Older men have had more time to figure out who they are, and they're usually secure in their personalities, likes, and dislikes. They want the same thing in a woman, even if she's younger. Listen to him talk about himself, but also share who you are. If you're actually looking for a calmer lifestyle than the one you led when you were younger, say so. If you still enjoy ripping it up with the girls on the weekend, own it. Don't apologize for it — it's part of what makes you you. Don't challenge him to a staring contest, but connect with him through his eyes. Maintaining eye contact shows that you're both confident in yourself and drawn to him. These are very personal areas on the body. Even our oldest, closest friends don't usually touch our necks. The neck and hair are off-limits to everyone but sexual partners, for the most part. Draw attention to them to let him know what you're thinking. This applies to all flirting, not just flirting with older men. Note that much of this body language might suggest you're interested in a sexual relationship. Consider his feelings and your personal safety. Don't make him think you're sexually interested if you're not. But if you are interested, what you say with your body might come across more clearly than what you say with your words.  Draw attention to your lips: nibble your lower lip, purse your lips when you're thinking, or apply a nice, bright lip balm. Make him think about kissing you. Don't be too shy to touch him: rest your hand on his when you laugh at something he says, or place it on his shoulder when you lean in to share something private. Don't cross your arms: this makes you seem closed off.  Lean toward him to close the distance between you.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Create a list of words that all contain the same pattern. Get the student to identify patterns in the way that the words are spelled. Point out the differences in the way that the words are spelled. Ask the student if they can spell out a different word.

Answer: Choose one pattern for each study session. The idea is that you will teach the student how to identify different patterns of spelling, and they will learn to spell based on these patterns.  You might base this pattern on the endings of words. For example, create a list of words that ends only in “-ate” or “-ing.” You can base this pattern on the first letter of the words. This is good for consonants that might change sound based on their spelling, such as “c” or “g.” You can also use the vowels in the word. This is a good way to teach double vowels, such as “ai” or “oi.” Do not tell the student what the pattern is. Ask them to find the similarities between all of the words on the list. Help them pronounce each word out loud so that they can hear how it sounds. Having each student say the words out loud can help. For example, they may notice that the c in “cat” is pronounced differently than the c in “chat.” Ask them why that might be and then explain why to them.  See if the student can identify the rules of spelling on their own. For example, they may notice that when “c” is followed by an “a,” it is pronounced with a hard sound while a “c” followed by an “e” is always soft. If they don't get it on their own, it is OK to explain it to them. Choose a word that fits the pattern but wasn't on the original list. See if they can spell it now that they have learned the pattern. You may want to go through a few different words to test their skills. For example, if you taught “igh” as your pattern, you might ask them to spell “night,” “eight,” or “right.”


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Inspect their ears. Check their nails. Exercise your puppy regularly. Consult your veterinarian.

Answer:
Bassets have long ears that can harbor dampness and debris. Therefore, you will need to inspect your Basset’s ears regularly to avoid infections. Acclimate your puppy to having their ears inspected by practicing flipping their ears over for inspection. Reward your puppy with praise and treats for allowing you to inspect their ears. Basset’s nails tend to grow fast. Therefore, you will need to trim your puppy’s nails to prevent them from becoming too long. Your dog’s nails should be trimmed when they are just about to touch the ground when your puppy walks. Acclimate your Basset to having their nails clipped by handling their feet when they are still young. Rub your hand over their legs and paws, and gently press each individual toe. Reward your puppy with praise and treats for allowing you to touch their paws and toes. Bassets are very laid back, but they have a tendency to be lazy. Consequently, Bassets also have a tendency to become overweight and obese. Starting with their puppy years, provide your Basset with physical and mental exercise to prevent obesity.  Take your Basset puppy outside for self-directed, off-leash play. Allow them to roam around, sniff, and dig. Teaching your Basset commands and tricks will stimulate their mind and provide them with the mental exercise that they need. It is crucial to take your new Basset hound for an initial checkup as well as annual exams. They will need to be vaccinated, dewormed, and receive medication to protect them from heartworm. You should also discuss spaying/neutering with your veterinarian.  Your veterinarian will be able to recommend the best training methods for your Basset Hound. Also, ask your veterinarian about the appropriate activities that will enable you to fulfill your dog’s physical and mental exercise needs. You can also ask your veterinarian for tips on how to thoroughly inspect your dog’s ears and keep them clean.
