In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can learn something every day by paying attention to the news. You can watch news on TV or listen to the radio. You can also read traditional newspapers or follow online news sites. Try to follow both local and international news each day. For example, read an article in your local paper and then check out the BBC. Reading is one of the most effective ways to learn. Make a point to read every day. It can be for an hour before bed, or just for 10 minutes on your lunch break. Both fiction and non-fiction are great choices!  Choose fiction to discover new places through a character’s experience. You can also gain insight on emotions and interpersonal relationships. For instance, you might try reading The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini to learn about life in Afghanistan. Non-fiction can teach you about anything, from history to how to build a car. If you'd like to learn more about American political history, try Truman by David McCullough. Try listening to an audiobook while you cook dinner or on your daily commute. The internet has an endless supply of information and there is more added everyday! You can use a popular search engine to search for a specific topic. For example, you might type in “healthcare in the UK.”  You can also just randomly explore. Go to any popular website and just keep following links that interest you. Keep in mind that just because something is on the internet doesn’t make it true. You still need to verify the source before accepting something as fact. If something doesn't ring true, look for another source to check the information. Try to avoid sites that seem focused on presenting a certain agenda, rather than just the facts. Sources such as government agencies, universities, and hospitals typically offer the most factual, up to date information. If you’re already a student, you’re all set! But don’t worry, even if you’re done with your formal education you can continue to take classes. There are many options out there for you.  For a traditional course, contact your local university or community college. You can often take single classes for continuing education. There are also online classes you can take, through traditional colleges or other websites. Take a class in whatever interests you! It can be anything from psychology to art. In addition to reading on the internet, you can learn a lot by watching videos. If you’re a visual learner, videos can be a really useful tool for you. Simply search for something like “sew curtains video” and have fun exploring the results. You can also browse popular video sites like YouTube and click on whatever interests you. This is one of the simplest ways to learn something new. Make it a point each day to ask someone a question. No matter what you ask, you’re guaranteed to learn something!  Ask your boss, “Do you have feedback for me on my last project? I wanted to know if it made an impact on sales.” Or you could ask a friend, “I know you’re from Oklahoma. I’ve never been there, can you tell me what it is like?”
Summary: Follow the news to keep up with current events. Read books and articles to expand your awareness. Explore the Internet to discover new things. Take a class to keep your mind engaged. Watch online videos to see how things are done. Ask questions to gather additional information.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Fill up a five-gallon (18.92 l) bucket with warm water from your faucet. Then use a measuring cup and add 1/4 cup (45 g) of baking soda and 1/4 cup (45 g) of ammonia into the bucket.  Wear gloves when handling ammonia or other harsh cleaners. Ammonia will remove soap scum while the baking soda will wash away grime without scratching or damaging your cast iron tub. Never mix bleach and ammonia together because it creates a toxic gas. Thoroughly saturate a nonabrasive sponge into the bucket and use it to scrub down the basin of the tub. Work the sponge in small circular motions until all of the grime and soap scum has been removed. Spend more time scrubbing especially dirty areas to fully clean them. Remember to use the solution on the fixtures of the tub, in addition, the tub's basin. Use the faucet or a shower head to rinse down the inside of your tub thoroughly. Remove all of the baking soda and ammonia solution that you just scrubbed into it. If you don't have a showerhead that reaches, you can empty out your bucket and fill it with water to rinse your tub. Use a lint-free cloth to thoroughly dry down your tub. Make sure that you lift up any remaining solution or it can leave a white film on your tub.  This deeper cleaning method should be done once every month. Once the tub is dry, rub your hands along the sides and bottom of the tub, to check for remaining soap scum or grime. If you find any, scrub that part of the tub again. Then, rinse and dry it.
Summary:
Mix warm water, baking soda, and ammonia in a bucket. Dip a nonabrasive sponge in the solution and scrub the tub. Rinse down your tub. Dry your tub.
