Jeopardy Test



Last Wednesday I took the test to become a contestant on Jeopardy. I think they only do this test once a year so I thought I would give it a shot. It was tough, but it was a lot of fun. Here's a sampling of the questions:

  1. THIS "WATER MUSIC" COMPOSER IS BURIED IN POETS' CORNER AT WESTMINSTER ABBEY
  2. THIS BASIC AERODYNAMIC FORCE ACTS ON A WING, PUTTING GREATER PRESSURE ON ITS LOWER SURFACE THAN ITS UPPER
  3. "THE LOST COLONY" DRAMA IS AN ANNUAL EVENT AT FORT RALEIGH NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE ON THIS ISLAND
  4. WHEN THE TRANSCONTINENTAL RAILROAD WAS COMPLETED IN 1869, THIS CALIFORNIA CITY WAS ITS WESTERN TERMINUS
(Answers are at the bottom of the post)





(Answers 1. Handel, 2. Lift, 3. Roanoke, 4. Sacramento)
