TEST YOUR BRAIN
POWER ON THE FOLLOWING PUZZLES. ANSWERS ARE PRINTED BELOW.
1.What is?
The beginning
of eternity
The end of time and space
The beginning of every end,
And the end of every place.
2. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you
can find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so plain you would think
nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual
though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd.
But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any
coaching!
3.After teaching his class all about roman numerals (X = 10,
IX=9 and so on) the teacher asked his class to draw a single continuous line and
turn IX into 6. The only stipulation the teacher made was that the pen could not
be lifted from the paper until the line was complete
4. Why is it better to have round manhole covers than square
ones?
5. Three people go fishing -- two fathers and two sons. How
is this possible?
6.What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?
7.
A quick test of intelligence
Don't cheat! Because if you did, the test would be no fun. There
are no tricks to the test. Read the sentence below and count the F's in that
sentence. Count them ONLY ONCE. Do not go back and count them again.
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.
3.
Draw an S in front of the IX and it spells SIX. No one said the line had to be
straight :)
4. A
square manhole cover can fall into the hole on the diagonal; a round manhole
cover cannot be dropped into the hole.
5.
The three people are a grandfather, father, and son.
6. A towel.
7. There are six F's in the sentence.
A person of average intelligence finds three of them.
If you spotted four, you're above average.
If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody.
If you caught six, you are a genius.
There is no catch.
Many people forget the "OF"s. The human brain tends to see them as V's and not
F's.
