For Smart People Only by favour5(f): 9:56am On Jul 29, 2006
Below are four questions and a bonus question.You have to answer them instantly. You can't take your time.Answer all of them immediately. OK?

Let's find out just how clever you really are.

Ready? GO!!!





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,
you are absolutely wrong!
If you overtake the second person and you take his place,you are second!




Try not to make a mistake in 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,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?














Did you get 5000?



The correct answer is actually 4100.



Don't believe it? Check with your calculator!


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.

There is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses,how should he express himself?








Answer: He just has to open his mouth and ask, so simple.

Nice quiz favour5. I tripped-up on the maths question (had to get my cally out to make sure you were not messing with me! angry smiley) and the one about the blind man  angry smiley. Perhaps you should have held on to the answers for a bit until people posted replies. Good one though - got any more?
