Well,if the one who constructed the questions could predict those answers and is supposedly the sharp one,then I am as sharp as he/she is. Please note there is a condition to answering these questions,'Do not take much time thinking,just answer'. In other words in most people's cognitive process,within the first few moments your thoughts tend to be linear (ie straight foward). However if you took a bit more time,you will think beyond the surface level and definately get the correct answer. If the same quetions had been asked and the condition be,'Think carefully before you answer',again most of us would get the answers answers correct. In essence,the questions are not necessarily testing sharpness parse but people's cognitive process,time being a constraint. My take each day is a gift from God; I dont know if I will be here tomorrow; should I be,I'll make the most of it for God's glory; should I be not,pick up and keep the legacy

When you run so fast to get somewhere,you miss the fun of getting there... Life is not a race,so take it slowly.... When you hear what I say, you will not understand. When you see what I do, you will not comprehend
