Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Assemble the items you'll need. Line the contestants up next to each other on a starting line. Have your finish line visible and clear. Give your signal for the race to start. Declare the winner.

Answer: You will need one egg (raw or hard boiled but hard boiled is best) and one spoon for each person participating in the race. You might even like to use dyed Easter eggs as something special for Easter. It's best to have this race on grass or some other soft surface, to give dropped eggs a chance! It's no fun dropping your egg, thinking you've won, only to realize that the finish line is in fact several inches or centimeters away. Everyone then begins to race towards the finish line. The contestants have to keep their egg balanced in their spoon, without using their other hand for support. If the egg drops, but is not broken, the contestant can pick up the egg and resume the race. The first contestant to make it to the finish line wins. Have second and third prizes, too.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wear a fitted dress to show off the velvet booties. Pair a printed A-line skirt with a neutral-colored top for a classy look. Throw on black leather pants and a blouse for a bold outfit. Show off a little black dress with bold-colored booties. Combine different fabrics to create textured outfits.

Answer: Pairing your shoes with an eye-catching dress, such as one with a bold pattern, full skirt, or unique fabric, will make for a great outfit. Wear a dress with sleeves by itself, or throw on a blazer or nice jacket over a dress without sleeves.  Put on a floral-patterned dress with black velvet booties, or wear a spaghetti strap black dress with blue velvet booties and an embellished jacket. Carry a matching purse or clutch to complete the outfit. If you have a skirt in a plaid, polka dot, floral, striped, or other patterned fabric, wear it with your velvet booties for a lively look. Pick out a shirt that matches the skirt, most likely in a neutral color such as cream, black, or gray. Wear an abstract-patterned skirt that goes just above your knee with black velvet booties and a cream sweater. The blouse can be flowy and made of a material like chiffon, or more tight-fitting and made of a knit or spandex material. Wear bold-colored velvet booties and throw a jacket on over your shirt if needed.  Choose a blouse that’s the same color as your booties, or wear a neutral-colored top with your black pants and have your jacket or purse match the booties. You could wear black leather pants, a black shirt, and blue velvet booties. If you have velvet booties in purple, blue, green, red, or any other color, put on a black mini or knee-length dress to go with them. You can put on a couple statement pieces of jewelry to complete the outfit.  Wear a shawl over your dress, or a jacket made of velvet, silk, or another classy material. Put on an oversized necklace to make your outfit pop, or wear another accessory such as a headband, choker, or scarf. Wearing your velvet booties with a piece of clothing made out of leather, fur, silk, corduroy, or some other interesting fabric will create a more unique look. Just make sure the colors in your outfit don’t clash too harshly. For example, wear a navy blue corduroy jacket with purple velvet booties, or a silk shirt with black velvet booties.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Begin with 15 cards out of a regular card deck. Lay the cards out in front of you. Narrow the card options down to two. Ask your subject which pile her card is in. Show the subject her card.

Answer: Fan the cards out facing away from you and show them to your subject.  Tell them to select a card in their mind, but not to touch it or say aloud what it is. Lay out three rows of five cards in vertical rows in front of you.  Then pick up each stack of cards, one row at a time, and ask your subject whether their card is in that group. When they say yes, be sure to place that group of 5 cards on the top of the deck of 15. Place the cards in front of you in three rows of five again, but this time, be sure to deal the cards from left to right.  You will know that the subject’s card will be one of the first two in the left or center columns or the first one in the right column. Pick up each pile, one at a time and ask the subject to identify which pile her card is in.  If she chooses the pile on the right, you know it has to be the top right card. If she chooses the pile on the left or in the center, you know that it must be one of the two cards in that row. You can repeat the narrowing procedure one more time if the subject’s card is on the left or in the center, or you can decide if you want to have 2 guesses on selecting her card. This is the end of the trick—try showing her the card with a flourish.  If she says no, it’s likely you sorted the deck wrong, lost track of the original 5 cards, or she may be lying!


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Know what causes malaria. Know the signs and symptoms. Pay attention for signs of spleen failure. Take your temperature to identify a high fever. Get a diagnosis.

Answer:
Malaria is caused by Plasmodium, a single-celled parasite often transmitted by infected mosquitoes.  The parasite is injected into a person’s circulatory system through the saliva of the mosquito. It then travels to the liver where it will mature and reproduce. When the plasmodium matures, it will infect red blood cells until they burst. Then, newly developed Plasmodium from the red blood cells will spread, and infect more red blood cells. In most cases, the manifestations of malaria will begin 8-25 days after the mosquito bite. However, those who have taken prophylaxis (medication to prevent infection) may have an extended incubation period.  When the infected red blood cells spread throughout the body, the cells will eventually die off. This can lead to severe liver infection. Sometimes the infected red blood cells become "stickier" than usual and clot easily, which can lead to stoppage of blood flow to the brain. The severity of the signs and symptoms of malaria may depend upon three factors: the type of malaria, your immune system, and health of your spleen. There are 5 types of malaria. These include P. Vivax, P. Malaria, P. Ovale, P. Falciparum, and P. Knowlesi. The spleen is the graveyard of your red blood cells.  During a malaria infection, red blood cells rapidly die, and the spleen may not be able to keep up with the demand, leading to sepsis and organ failure. Notice an enlarged spleen, which can happen when the spleen is overwhelmed by the amount of dead red blood cells and becomes unnaturally enlarged. High fever is very common in malaria patients.  The temperature may reach as high as 40 °C (104 °F). Fever is a systemic immune response of the body, that works to suppress bacterial growth. Fever is often accompanied by chills, which allows the muscles to burn calories and increase your body temperature. This may also include sweating. Because malaria has non-specific symptoms, it may be more difficult to diagnose when it occurs in an uncommon country, such as the US.  Your health and travel history will be assessed to determine if you have traveled to a malarial country. Get a physical examination. Although the physical findings might not be specific, they will be used to make a preliminary diagnosis of malaria.  Get a blood film done. Your doctor will take a drop of blood and place it in a microscopic slide. The blood will be stained to make the blood cells visible under the microscope. Your doctor will analyze the film to see if there are visible plasmodium parasites. Two or more tests are required within a 36 hour period to confirm malaria.
