Today's questions are as follows:

1. Four friends have been invited to a birthday party. Using the clues below, can you determine which friend brought which present and in what colour paper it was wrapped?

Friends: Allison, Betty, Christine, Diana
Presents: stationery, a CD, a book, a necklace
Colours of wrapping paper: red, yellow, green, blue

Clues:

1. Betty doesn't like to read and therefore doesn't buy books. She knew that the birthday girl's favorite colour was red, so she chose that colour to wrap her gift.

2. When the girl who bought the CD went to the store to buy wrapping paper, the only colour they had was green.

3. The people invited to the party were Christine, the girl who brought the present that was wrapped in yellow, the girl who bought the necklace, and the girl who used green paper.

4. Diana knew that the birthday girl had family who lived out of town. She bought stationery so that her friend could keep in touch with them.


2. How can you leave a place by closing a window?

3. It was a very windy day. On a narrow but busy country road, the wind blew over 3 trucks. However, this had no effect on the rest of the traffic in either direction. Even if the trucks had been blown to the side of the road, it would still not have caused delays with recovery. Why were there no effects on the traffic?

[Abigail]

VIOLET VIOLEt VIOLet VIOlet VIolet Violet violet

2. Last week whilst driving home from work I was listening to my favourite radio station, enjoying the music.

Suddenly, the radio went off for one minute and came back on again.

I did not touch the radio controls. There was nothing wrong with the radio or my car; nor was there any problems with the radio station and its program transmission. Most people listening to the same radio station did not experience any loss of reception.

Why did the radio suddenly go off for a minute and then come back on again?
