Let's take a quick test to see how smart you really are. You are going to read four questions, and you must answer right away. You can not give yourself time to think too much after you've read the question. Let's find out how smart you really are...Ready? Start! * First Question: You are participating in race, and you just passed the person in second place. What place did you finish the race in? Scroll down to take a look at the answer. Answer: If you answered that you were first, you are absolutely wrong. You passed the guy in second place and have take his place instead. Therefore, you finished the race in second place Please, for the next question don't take too much time to answer!! *Second question: If you passed the guy in the last position, in what place did you finish the race? Answer: If you answered "the one before last", you are wrong again. Just think a little...How can you pass the guy in the last position? If he is the last then either you are already before him or you are not in the race....This question is imposible!! Please, stop using paper, pencil and your calculator to answer these questions!! And remember you have to think quick and answer right away. Let's try again and see if you can get this one right. Third Question: Take 1000. Add 40 Add another 1000 now 30 another 1000 then add 20 again add 1000 now 10 ¿What is the total? Answer: ¿Did you get 5000? This is wrong again, the answer is 4100. Try it again, this time you can use a calculator. What? Are you having a bad day? Face it this is the reality ;-) OK, let's try once more and see if you can get this one right at least... The father of Renata has five daughters: 1. Nana 2. Nene 3. Nini 4. ???? 5. Nunu Question: What's the name of the fourth daughter? Think quick!!... see the answer below: RENATA - of course!!! Read the question again if you don't believe me.
