First Question:
You are participating in a race. You overtake the
second person. What position are you in?
Answer: If you answered that you are first,
then you are absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person , then YOU are second!
Try to do better with the next question.
To answer the second question, don't take as much time as you took for
the first question.
Second Question:
If you overtake the last
person, then you are...?
Answer: If you answered that you are second
to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST
Person?
You're not very good at
this! Are you?
Third Question:
Very tricky math! Note:
This must be done in your head only.
Do NOT use paper and
pencil or a calculator. Try it.
Take 1000 and add 40 to
it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add
another 1000 Now add 10. What is the total?
Scroll
down for answer.
Did you get 5000?
The correct answer is
actually 4100.
Don't believe it? Check with your calculator! Today is definitely not
your day. Maybe you will get the last question right?
Fourth Question:
Mary's father has five
daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono.
What is the name of the fifth daughter?
Answer: Nunu?
NO! Of course not.
Her name is Mary. Read the question again
Okay, now the bonus round:
There is a mute person
who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one's teeth
he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.
Now if there is a blind
man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself?
He just has to open his
mouth and ask, so simple.
