First Question :



You are a participant in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?









Answer : If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely WRONG! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, YOU are in second place!



Try not to screw up next time. Now answer the second question, but don't take as much time as you took for the first question, OK?

Okay, now the Bonus round, i.e., a final chance to redeem yourself:





A mute person goes into a shop and wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing his teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.

Next, a blind man comes into the shop who wants to buy a pair of sunglasses; how does HE indicate what he wants?





























It's really very simple

He opens his mouth and ask for it...
