TEST FOR DEMENTIA...


Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the
muscles. As we grow older, it's important that we keep
mentally alert. The saying; "If you don't use it, you will
lose it" also applies to the brain, so...,

Below is a very private way to gauge your loss or non-loss
of intelligence.
So, take the following test presented here and determine if
you are losing it or are still "with it."

The spaces below are so you don't see the answers until you
have made your own....
OK, relax, clear your mind and.... begin.

 

 

1. What do you put in a toaster?

 

 

 

Answer: "bread." If you said "toast," then give up now and
go do something else. Try not to hurt yourself.

If you said, "bread," go to Question 2.




2. Say "silk" five times. Now spell "silk." What do cows
drink?

 

 

 

 

Answer: Cows drink water. If you said "milk," please do not
attempt the next question. Your brain is obviously over
stressed and may even overheat. It may be that you need to
content yourself with reading something more appropriate
such as Children's
World."

If you said "water" then proceed to question 3

3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house
is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink
bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is
a green house made from?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said "green
bricks," what the devil are you still doing here reading
these questions?????

If you said "glass," then go on to Question 4.

4. Twenty years ago, a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over
Germany. If you will recall, Germany at the time was
politically divided into West Germany and East Germany.
Anyway, during the flight, TWO of the engines fail. The
pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also
failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately
the engine fails before he has time and the plane fatally
crashes smack in the middle of "no man's land" between East
Germany and West Germany. Where would you
bury the survivors? East Germany or West Germany or in "no
man's land"?

 

 

 

 

Answer: You don't, of course, bury survivors. If you said
ANYTHING else, you are a real dunce and you must NEVER try
to rescue anyone from a plane crash. Your efforts would not
be appreciated

If you said, "Don't bury the survivors" then proceed to the
next question.

5. If the hour hand on a clock moves 1/60 of a degree every
minute then how many degrees will the hour hand move in one
hour?

 

 

 

 

 

Answer: One degree. If you said "360 degrees" or anything
other than "one degree," you are to be congratulated on
getting this far, but you are obviously out of your league.
Turn your pencil in and exit the room. Everyone else proceed
to the final qu estion.
