Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make sure the environment is safe before going out into the world. Scavenge for additional supplies and food. Prepare to defend yourself from desperate survivors. Move to a fertile place near the equator and plant vegetable seeds. Create a governance system for your new society.

Answer: Use a portable air monitor to test the air outside and make sure that the levels are normal before venturing there. You also need to make sure that any fires or flooding caused by the comet have subsided. Acid rain is also a potential result from massive fires putting pyrotoxins into the air, which would make going outside deadly. Have a reason to go outside, like being out of food or supplies, or hearing about other groups of people who survived and wanting to join them. Whatever the comet did not destroy can be salvaged for use, like food, batteries, water, or anything else you’d find useful from abandoned stores and houses.  Make sure that you are not stealing from anyone and that the goods have been abandoned by their previous owners to avoid confrontations. There is a chance that the location you try to scavenge in has already been sorted through, depending on the length of time you’ve been hiding out. If you’ve managed to survive the comet impact, there’s a good likelihood that others have as well. Hunger breeds violence and people will want to your steal supplies in order to survive.  Always try to resolve things peacefully, not violently. There may be other groups willing to share resources as long as you share yours. Always approach people cautiously, but not in a hostile manner. Non-perishable and canned food won’t sustain you forever, so you will have to get used to hunting and gathering your own food. Designate different people based on their strengths to search for food. Moving near the equator will be warmer and if the dirt is fertile, this will allow you to begin to grow food for consumption.  Having more people in your group will allow you to search for food more effectively. Moving near a large body of water will allow you to fish. Use survival guides to determine what foliage is good to eat and what is poisonous. A popular vote is a direct democracy and would work so that everyone had a voice in matters that affect the group. While having a final decision maker or leader is conventionally how smaller groups tend to act, having everyone’s voice be heard will hopefully ensure less fighting in your group.  As your group gets larger, the governance system becomes more critical. Make sure to hold everyone to the same standards.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Find the median Subtract Q3 - Q1 to determine the IQR.

Answer: of the lower and upper half of your data. The median is the "midpoint," or the number that is halfway into a set. In this case, you aren't looking for the midpoint of the entire set, but rather the relative midpoints of the upper and lower subsets. If you have an odd number of data, do not include the middle number – in Set B, for instance, you would not figure in one of the 10s.  Even example (Set A):  Median of lower half = 7 (Q1) Median of upper half = 12 (Q3)   Odd example (Set B):  Median of lower half = 8 (Q1) Median of upper half = 18 (Q3) Now you know how many numbers lie between the 25th percentile and the 75th percentile. You can use this to understand how widely-spread the data is. For instance, if a test is scored out of 100, and the IQR of the scores is 5, you can assume that most of the people taking it had a similar grasp of the material because the high-low range is not very large. If the IQR of the test scores is 30, however, you might start to wonder why some people scored so high and others scored so low.  Even example (Set A): 12 - 7 = 5 Odd example (Set B): 18 - 8 = 10


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Love yourself. Face your fears. Continue to practice.

Answer: Athletes, and possibly individuals in general, who have respect and love for themselves may tend to think more positively about their own behaviors. Avoid basing your self-esteem on your behaviors or actions – this can lead to increased anxiety and less self-confidence.  Instead, have unconditional positive regard for yourself.  Write down 5 things you love about yourself and read them aloud. Also try saying to yourself, “I love my self and I will never forget it.” Accept who you are and what issues you have such as your difficulty with confidence. We should try our best to not let fear be an obstacle to our success. Facing your fears is one of the best ways to get rid of them. If you are worried about speaking in front of people, the more you practice it the less nervous you will be. Try practicing your speech in front of your family or friends before you do it in front of your designated audience; this can help you become more self-confident. Make sure you get feedback from your loved ones on your presentation so you can fix any issues before your big day! Remember the goals that you set and continue to implement those goals every single day. Revise what went wrong and try to improve it. Look at setbacks as opportunities to learn or to improve yourself. This will increase your self-confidence in the long-term because you will have a better outlook in general about possible mistakes.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Go for a walk. Control your first impulse. Dance Do a deep breathing exercise. Count backwards from fifty. Meditate Visualize a peaceful scene. Listen to some relaxing music. Turn on your positive thoughts.

Answer:
Getting away from a situation that is causing you to feel angry can help you calm down and think things through. Getting outdoors and focusing on nature can be even more helpful.  Taking a walk will help you burn off some of that negative energy instantly and can help you get away from the problem.  If you're in the middle of a heated argument, there's nothing wrong with saying, "I'm going to go for a walk."  Remember most situations do not require an immediate response. You can often leave the room or the building and give yourself time to cool down before responding to someone. If you're prone to fits of anger, then it's likely that your first impulse is not a good one. Maybe you want to kick your car, punch a wall, or scream at someone. Instead of acting on this initial impulse, ask yourself if what you want to do is a really good and productive thing to do. Take a minute to understand how you should really act and to consider what would calm you down the most. Your first impulse may often be violent, destructive, and completely irrational. Don't make things worse for yourself by giving in to this kind of impulse. . You may think that the last thing you want to do when you're really angry is to dance, which is precisely why you should do it. If you're feeling too caught up in your anger, turn on your favorite dance tune and start dancing and belting the lyrics. This will distract your toxic impulses through external stimuli.  If this method really works for you, then you can even pick your go-to dance song to play every time you feel yourself getting overwhelmed by anger. Sit straight upright in a chair. Breathe in deeply through your nose, counting to 6.  Then slowly breathe out, counting to 8 or 9.  Pause and repeat 10 times. Try to focus only on your breathing, clearing your mind of whatever has upset you. Counting aloud or even whispering the numbers to yourself can make you instantly calm down in less than a minute. Try to keep your body calm while you do this, so that the only thing you have to worry about are the numbers. Focusing on this simple and concrete task will keep you from being overwhelmed in the moment and will make you face your problem with a more even head.  If you're still angry, repeat the exercise, or even count back from 100. . Meditation can help you regulate your emotions.   Therefore, if you are feeling as though you are going to lose control of your temper, give yourself a little mental vacation through meditation. Remove yourself from the situation causing the anger: go outside, to a stairwell, or even to the bathroom.   Take slow, deep breaths. Maintaining this breathing will likely bring down your elevated heart rate. Your breaths should be deep enough that your belly extends on the “in” breath. Visualize a golden-white light filling your body as you breathe in, relaxing your mind. When you breathe out, visualize muddy or dark colors leaving your body. Making a habit of meditating every morning, even when you're not angry, will make you feel more calm in general. Close your eyes and imagine your favorite place in the world, whether it's the beach where you used to vacation as a child or the beautiful lake you still remember from your teenage days. It can also be a scene from a place you've never been before; a forest, a field of flowers, or a beautiful landscape. Pick a place that makes you instantly feel more calm and at peace and you'll quickly find your breath returning to normal. Focus on every little detail. The more details you see, the more you can pull away from your angry thoughts. Unwinding to some of your favorite singers might calm you down and get you in the mood. Music is proven to make you feel a certain way when you hear it and bring back memories. It can calm people who are angry or agitated, even if they’re not aware of the source of that agitation. Classical music and jazz are particularly helpful for calming people down, but you have to find what works for you. You can help reduce your anger by trying to focus more clearly on your positive thoughts. Close your eyes, banish every negative thought that comes your way, and think of at least three positive things.  The positive thoughts can be positive aspects of the situation you're worrying about, or just thoughts about something else you have to look forward to or something that makes you happy. Some examples of positive thoughts include:  This will pass. I am strong enough to handle this. Challenging situations are opportunities to grow. I will not feel angry forever; this is a temporary feeling.
