How can I make it so that only a part of an article is shown, not the whole thing?

There is 'read-more' tags in the editing panel.

In HTML mode add

<strong><!--more--></strong>

In Visual mode click the "Insert More tag" button or hold Alt+Shift+T.

Alternatively, you can use this method, which is stable:
Go to the index.php (if not, main.php)and then find

<span class="syntaxdefault"><?php the_content</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">();</span><span class="syntaxdefault"> ?></span>

and then replace it with:

<span class="syntaxdefault"><?php the_excerpt</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">();</span><span class="syntaxdefault"> ?></span>

Then, I suggest using Advanced Excerpt plugin to control your excerpts.
