Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. My agent went yesterday to try to double his usual pay.

Answer: Twenty

...agen(T WENT Y)esterday...

An agent usually receives ten per cent as payment for landing a performer a job. Double that would lead to the word twenty.

2. Snow White's friends felt lucky to buy some apples from the wise vendor.

Answer: Seven

...wi(SE VEN)dor...

Snow White's friends were the seven dwarves, and seven is considered by many to be a lucky number.

3. The drummer made cadences I hadn't heard in ten years.

Answer: Decade

...ma(DE CADE)nces...

A cadence is a tempo or beat. "Ten years" is a hint to lead to the word decade.

4. The apple's core might have been enough for Abe had there been more of them.

Answer: Score

...apple'(S CORE)...

A score is twenty of something. The Abe reference is to the opening of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, "Four score and seven years ago...".

5. Everybody cheered for Tyler and Mary on their ruby wedding anniversary.

Answer: Forty

...(FOR TY)ler...

After being married for forty years, a couple celebrates their ruby anniversary, at least in many countries.

6. The owner of the dachshund reddened when his dog stopped the cricketer from reaching a milestone.

Answer: Hundred

...dachs(HUND RED)dened...

The cricket milestone alluded to is a century, or scoring one hundred runs in one time at bat.

7. The Bar Mitzvah of our teenage son was last year.

Answer: Fourteen

...o(F OUR TEEN)age...

The normal age for a Bar Mitzvah is thirteen, so if his was last year the number we want is fourteen.

8. After the birdwatcher saw the blue tit, he went to pay his contribution to his church.

Answer: Tithe

...blue (TIT HE) went...

A tithe is a contribution of one-tenth of one's income paid to one's church to support it. A blue tit is a pretty little blue and yellow bird often to be seen in England.

9. Don't give him a cent, Ena Ryan! Canada celebrated that in 1967!

Answer: Centenary

...(CENT ENA RY)an...

A centenary marks one hundred years of the existence of something. In Canada 1967 is usually known as Centennial Year, but centenary could also be used to describe it. Apologies for the contrived sentence, in which "he" seems to want Ms Ryan to donate to centenary celebrations a few years too late!

10. Using a pen, tag one large office building on this map.

Answer: Pentagon

...a (PEN TAG ON)e...

A pentagon is a five-sided figure, and also the name of a very large office building near Washington DC, in Arlington, Virginia.
