The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will tell you whether you are qualified to be a "professional." Scroll down for each answer. The questions are NOT that difficult.

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way.

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Did you say, "Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the refrigerator? " (Wrong Answer) Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. This tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your previous actions.

3. The King of the Forest is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend except one. Which animal does not attend?

Correct Answer: The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator.
You just put him in there. This tests your memory. OK, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your true abilities.

4. There is a river you must cross but it is inhabited by crocodiles. How do you manage it?

Correct Answer: You swim across. All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting. This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes

it is inhabited by crocodiles

Based on the word, "is," which is in present tense, the correct answer should not be merely to swim across, since the question clearly indicates that in the present time frame the crocodiles do indeed inhabit the river (most likely the conference concluded, and the crocodiles returned to the river for dessert

)

And of course, the 1st 2 questions in particular, while perhaps valid, ignore the reality of real life. Few refrigerators will be large enough to contain the giraffe, and anyone sensible will notice that the giraffe must be taken out first, but still, good for a "heh."

I think the answer to #4 is throw a couple sticks a dynamite in the water.

Actually, swim across crocodile infested waters is reasonably safe provided you enter without making a splash, don;t thrash around in the water, and basically act like a predator rather than prey.

Crocs (and other preds) don't hunt other predators.

Just as in the African savanah, the best way to avoid being eaten by something is to hunt something else.
