A simple quiz!

  1. What do you put in a toaster?

Answer: “bread.” If you said “toast,” then give up now and go do
something else. Try not to hurt yourself.

If you said, “bread,” go to Question 2.

  1. Say “silk” five times. Now spell “silk.” Now What do cows drink?

Answer: Cows drink water. If you said “milk,” please do not attempt
the
next question. Your brain is obviously over stressed and may even
overheat. It may be that you need to content yourself with reading
something more appropriate, such as Children’s World." If you said
“water,” proceed to question 3

  1. If a red house is made from red bricks, and a blue house is made
    from
    blue bricks, and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black
    house
    is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from?

Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said, “green bricks,”
what the devil are you still doing reading these questions■■? If you
said “glass,” then go on to Question 4.

  1. Twenty years ago, a plane was flying at 20,000 feet over Germany.
    If
    you recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into West
    Germany and East Germany. Anyway, during the flight, TWO of the
    engines
    failed. The pilot, realising that the last remaining engine is also
    failing, decides on a crash landing procedure… Unfortunately the
    third engine fails before he has time to attempt an emergency landing,
    and the plane crashes smack in the middle of “no man’s land” between
    East Germany and West Germany.

Where would you bury the survivors?. . . in East Germany or West
Germany
or in “no man’s land”?

Answer: You don’t, of course, bury survivors. If you said ANYTHING
else,
you are a real dunce and you must NEVER try to rescue anyone from a
plane crash. Your efforts would not be appreciated

If you said, “Don’t bury the survivors,” proceed to the next question.

  1. If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60 of a degree every minute how
    many degrees will the hour hand move in one hour?

Answer: One degree. If you said, “360 degrees” or anything other than
“one degree,” you are to be congratulated on getting this far, but you
are obviously out of your league. Turn in your pencil, and exit the
room.

Everyone else proceed to the final question.

  1. Without using a calculator-You are driving a bus from London to
    Milford Haven in Wales. In London, 17 people get on the bus. In
    Reading,
    six people get off the bus, and nine people get on. In Swindon, two
    people get off and four get on. In Cardiff, 11 people get off and 16
    people get on. In Swansea, three people get off and five people get
    on.
    In Carmathen, six people get off and three get on. You then arrive at
    Milford Haven.

What was the name of the bus driver?

Answer: Oh, for crying out loud! Don’t you remember? It was YOU!!

  1. If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60 of a degree every minute how
    many degrees will the hour hand move in one hour?

Answer: One degree. If you said, “360 degrees” or anything other than
“one degree,” you are to be congratulated on getting this far, but you
are obviously out of your league. Turn in your pencil, and exit the
room.

The hour hand doesn’t move 1/60 of a degree every minute though. It moves 360 degrees every 12 hours, and 12 hours is 12*60=720 minutes. Therefore it moves 1/2 of a degree every minute, and 30 degrees in one hour.
