《RIDDLE》 A man is stranded on an island covered in forest. One day, when the wind is blowing from the west, lightning strikes th

e west end of the island and sets fire to the forest. The fire is very violent, burning everything in its path, and without intervention the fire will burn the whole island, killing the man in the process. There are cliffs around the island so he can't jump off. How can the man survive the fire? (There are no buckets or any other means to put out the fire.)

The man picks up a piece of wood and lights it from the fire on the West End of the island.
He quickly carries it to the East End of the island and starts a new fire.
The wind will cause that fire to burn out the East end and he can then shelter in the burnt area.
The man survives the fire, but dies of starvation, with all the food in the forest burnt.

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

C.

What do genealogists have to look forward to in the future?

Explanation:

After reading the article, the reader learns about the history of genealogy dating to as far back as ancient Rome. The various ways by which ancient people kept and traced records were highlighted in the text. The writer records this chronology down to our present generation were the World Wide Web has made the keeping of records even simpler.

At this point, and after reading the last paragraph where the writer assumes that soon tracing genealogies will be as simple as pushing a button, the reader might now wonder the new inventions that would be possible in the future and that would make the tracing of genealogies even easier.

Anton [14]

Answer:

D)

Explanation:

I honestly don't like this question. It's a really poor question. But anyway, here's the explanation:

1) All search results are <em>somewhat </em>relevant. They have the keyword "cell phone" in every result. So none should be considered off-topic.

2) Matching personal opinion with given answer choices.

My personal list if any, would have been 3, 1, 2, 4.

But since the author has helped as out, 3 and 2 are guaranteed to be the top choices, the last part is determining whether search result 4 is more relevant compared to 2.

Since I believe 1 is somewhat relevant, A and C are negated. Leaving, B and D. In this situation, I would prefer 1 than 4 since search result 4 doesn't exactly help your research paper compared to search result 1. Therefore, the only choice is D.
