A harvest sown and reaped on the same day In an unplowed field, Which increases without growing, Remains whole though it is eaten Within and without, Is useless and yet The staple of nations.
A bed. The foot of the bed can’t walk and the head of the bed can’t talk. It’s probably a good thing that beds can’t walk and talk. Just think of where they’d go and what they’d say…
If you can hard boil a Kiwi bird egg in 20 minutes, how long would it take to hard boil four Kiwi bird eggs? Note: Kiwi birds are about the size of a chicken, but they lay eggs that are close to the size of an Ostrich egg. So one would assume they must take a long time to hard boil.
A. When a car is driven forwards the wheels rotate counter-clockwise. B. If a clock is put forward 1 1/4 hours the minute hand moves through 450° C. When a clock reads 4.10 the acute angle between the hands is exactly 60°
A. False – The near-side wheels rotate counter-clockwise, but the far-side wheels rotate clockwise. B. True C. False – The acute angle is a little more than 60° because by the time the minute hand reaches 10, the hour hand will have moved slightly past the 4.
She will always need to give you 5 apples. You both need at least 5 apples to begin with, but apart from that it doesn’t matter exactly how many you each have. When she gives you 5 you will have 10 more than her because she will lose 5 and you will gain 5, resulting in a net difference of 10.
For example, if you each have 25 apples and she gives you 5 of hers, she will be left with 20 and you will now have 30, precisely 10 more than she has.
