Difficult Questions Have Easy Answers
Author: Atina Hseham
Publisher: Mahesh Dutt Sharma
ISBN:
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
An inquiry made to obtain any information is known as an interrogation. While asking the person tries to get an answer that allows him to satisfy his doubts. The interviewers often ask simple questions in a very twisted fashion to confuse the candidates. Difficult questions-answers reflect the knowledge of the giver as well as his overall personality. For example: 'Which is heavier: a kilogram of feathers or 1000 grams of lead?' (Solution: Both the weights are equal). And 'What happened in Kolkata yesterday from 8 to 9 o'clock? (Solution: An hour had passed).' These questions have a trick because they are framed in such a way that the answers seem simple, but in reality, they are not. It can be said that the questioners confuse the candidates as they hide their answers using rhetorical resources and various devices. In some cases, the answer is found in the question itself, but in secret. Tricky questions are also used for fun or as a mental activity of logical practice. Like a truck driver passing down a street in the wrong direction, some policemen saw him, but they didn't say anything to him, why? (Solution: Because the truck driver was on foot). He shaves all day but still has a beard, who is he? (Solution: Barber). Some months have thirty days and others thirty-one, but how many months have twenty-eight? (Solution: Every month has at least twenty-eight days). Which object becomes wet When it dries? (Solution: Towel) How do you draw a square with three lines? (Solution: draw the square first and then draw three lines inside the square). Thus, an answer to a tricky question can lead to confusion due to the confusion-generated question. These types of questions are very specific to the areas in which people's knowledge or behavior is evaluated. Generally, such difficult questions can be perceived as misleading or incorrect because something is being implied that is not in reality. However, they can also be seen as methods whose precise purpose is to test the candidate and determine whether he or she is fully capable of answering the question that he or she is saying. I know. In this way, about five thousand questions and answers have been given in the present book, which is equally useful for all competitive examinations.
