    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    While on the plane, Brian contines to think about "the secret". What is "the secret"

    • A new dog

    • A ride on an airplane

    • A divorce

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. A divorce
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "a divorce" because the question states that Brian is thinking about "the secret" while on the plane. This implies that "the secret" is something significant and personal to Brian, and a divorce is a common and significant event that people often keep secret or think about. The other options, a new dog and a ride on an airplane, are not likely to be kept as secrets or cause someone to continuously think about them. Therefore, the most plausible explanation is that "the secret" refers to a divorce.

    What was the first sign that the pilot was not feeling well?

    • He had gas.

    • He rubbed his shoulder.

    • He called on the radio for help.

    Correct Answer
    A. He rubbed his shoulder.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "He rubbed his shoulder." This suggests that the pilot was experiencing discomfort or pain in his shoulder, which could be an indication that he was not feeling well. Rubbing the shoulder could be a reflexive action to alleviate discomfort, and it could also imply that the pilot was distracted or preoccupied with his physical discomfort, potentially affecting his ability to fly the aircraft.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Brian tries using the radio every ten minutes. How many times does he try?

    Correct Answer
    17 times
    Explanation
    Brian tries using the radio every ten minutes, which means he attempts to use it once every ten minutes. If we assume that Brian starts trying to use the radio at time zero, then after ten minutes he would have made his first attempt. After another ten minutes, he would have made his second attempt, and so on. Since there are 17 ten-minute intervals in 170 minutes, Brian would have tried to use the radio 17 times in total.
