ARTICLE 1:
Despite its rapid spread, Islam is not a religion for those who are casual about regulations. On the contrary, adhering to the rules of Islam takes effort and discipline. One must rise before dawn to observe the first of five prayers required daily, none of which can take place without first cleansing oneself according to an established ritual or ceremony. Sleep, work, and recreational activities take second place to prayer. Fasting for the month of Ramadan, undertaking the pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in a lifetime, paying tax for relief of the Muslim poor, and accepting Islam’s creed require a serious and an energetic commitment. On the whole, the vast majority of Muslims worldwide do observe those tenets.
Main Idea: Practitioners of Islam need to be willing to make a lot of effort to follow the rules of their faith.

ARTICLE 2:
Those cuddly stuffed animals called teddy bears seem to have been around forever. But actually, the first teddy bears came into being when President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt showed himself too much of a sportsman to shoot a staked bear cub. In 1902, Roosevelt visited Mississippi to settle a border dispute. In Roosevelt’s honor, his hosts organized a hunting expedition. To make sure that the president would bag a trophy, they staked a bear cub to the ground so that Roosevelt’s shot couldn’t miss. To his credit, Roosevelt refused to shoot the bear. When the incident was publicized, largely through political cartoons, a Russian candy store owner named Morris Michtom made a toy bear out of soft, fuzzy cloth
and placed it in his shop window with a sign reading “Teddy’s Bear.” The bear was a hit with passersby, and teddy-bear mania spread rapidly throughout the country. Soon, Teddy's bear was the country's most popular toy, the teddy bear.

ARTICLE 3:
Many people don’t know the difference between a patent and a trademark. However, the terms trademark and patent aren't synonyms, they refer to different things. Granted for a specific number of years, a patent protects both the name of a product and its method of manufacture. In 1928, for example, Jacob Schick invented and then patented the electric razor in an effort to maintain complete control of his creation. Similarly, between 1895 and 1912, no one but the Shredded Wheat company was allowed to make shredded wheat because the company had the patent.
A trademark is a name, symbol, or other device that identifies a product and makes it memorable in the minds of consumers. Kleenex, JELL-O, and Xerox are all examples of trademarks. Aware of the power that trademarks possess, companies fight to protect them. They do not allow anyone else to use one without permission. Occasionally, though, a company gets careless and loses control of a trademark. Aspirin, for example, is no longer considered a trademark, and any company can call a pain-reducing tablet an aspirin.
