How to test if a dish is microwave safe 
Fill a cup with water. 
To test if a dish is microwave safe, you can put it in the microwave with a cup of water. Find a glass or cup that is microwave safe, and fill it three-quarters of the way with water.

OPTIONS:
- There should be a line of water running vertically through the dish. If the water line isn't a line of water, there is one water that runs vertically from the microwave to the kettle, and this line should be marked.
- Make sure the glass you use is microwave safe. The microwave may take a few seconds to heat up properly, so make sure you're up when the microwave starts.
- Then, fill the remaining half with water. If it doesn't overflow, the water is safe to place into the microwave.
- It's important to use a cup that you know to be safe for the microwave, otherwise the test may not work. To be certain, find a cup that has the microwave safe stamp on the bottom.

How to sauté green beans 
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. 
Fill a large saucepan about half full with water, estimating the amount needed to fully cover the full batch of green beans. Set the saucepan on your stove over medium-high to high heat, and let it reach a rolling boil.

OPTIONS:
- Green beans are a slow-cook species, but it's always better to wear cooking gloves so you can use clean hands to hold the pot steady. Pour the green beans into the water.
- A large pot should be large enough to hold around two dozen green beans. A smaller pot will already have enough room for a smaller quantity of beans, making for perfect batches.
- Do not add the green beans before the water reaches a boil since doing so would cause the green beans to overcook. If desired, you can add 1 tbsp (15 ml) of salt to the boiling water.
- Do not overfill the pot, since doing so could make it unsightly. Doing so would result in some salting water falling out of the pot.

How to retain information when you study for a test 
Read actively. 
You won't retain information if you just casually read the material. When you're re-reading for a test, or reading new information, do so actively.

OPTIONS:
- This will help you remember the information better when a test arrives. It's easy to read a whole page and realize you took in nothing.
- Place your pen and notepad on a flat surface, and sit down with your attention on the text you're reading. The less time you use to study, the less effectively you'll retain information.
- Actively looking for information is the best way to retain information. Once you've read several chapters with quick answer questions, it's normal for your mind to wander and get lost.
- Pay attention to key paragraph breaks in the material, and clear your mind of all thoughts. The more active your mind or body is, the more likely you are to retain information.
