Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. People carry this in a purse or a pocket to hold money, coins, pictures, credit cards and other things. What would you call this important item?

Answer: wallet

A wallet is also known as a billfold. They come in a variety of colors, fabrics and designs. For most people, the choice of popular wallets are usually made of leather or cowhide for its long-lasting endurance. Some other types of wallets are called bi-fold, trifold and a chain wallet.
2. This is another word that we sometimes refer to as "exercise". Can you guess the word?

Answer: workout

Exercise or "workout" is very important for your whole physical being, especially your heart. It helps you to lose or maintain your weight goal and can even help to prevent certain types of diseases. Some examples of a workout are aerobic, total body, upper body, lower body, yoga and many others.
3. Which of the following is another word for "cried"?

Answer: wept

Crying or shedding tears is a natural human emotion we all have inside of us. There are many reasons why people have wept. Some of the reasons may be because they have lost a pet, a member of the family, or a friend. You may have even wept when you read a sad story, watched a sad movie, or you received a bad grade on an exam.

In John 11:35, the "Holy Bible" states the shortest verse as "Jesus wept".
4. Which part of our body permits the movement to wave hello or goodbye and is located between our hand and elbow?

Answer: wrist

Your wrist is at the lowest part of your arm and nearest to the hand. It has a frontward, backward and twisting motion, but can be injured or broken if you're not careful. Another useful purpose for our wrists is they allow us to wear pretty bracelets, jewelry, or watches.

It is also a great place to spray your perfume or cologne. One disorder of the wrist is called carpal tunnel syndrome which causes a painful sensation due to inflammation of the tendons and nerves inside.
5. When people break the law, an officer or a sheriff may serve them with a written authorization signed by a judge. What do we call this paper?

Answer: warrant

When a complaint has been filed on an accused person and they have been charged with a crime, a warrant is usually issued allowing a member of the law enforcement to arrest the suspect and take him or her to jail. This is called an arrest warrant. Other warrants may include a search warrant, bench warrant, alias warrant and tax warrant, just to name a few.
6. Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley were students at Hogwarts. Which subject was taught at their school?

Answer: witchcraft

In the "Harry Potter" series (1997-2009), witchcraft was taught in different ways from casting spells with a wand, flying on broomsticks, making potions and objects to appear in thin air, along with other magical powers. Some witchcraft was practised by bad and good witches or wizards for different reasons.

In the U.S. in 1692, the Salem witch trials of Massachusetts began, accusing many woman and young girls as being witches, which led to their deaths.
7. Which marsupial animal is native only to Australia?

Answer: wombat

Wombats are strong mammals that are skillful diggers and resemble small bears. Their diet consists mainly of grass and leaves, which they eat at night. These animals prefer to live alone and not near any other wombats. They live in homes called burrows which can be up to 100 feet (30 meters) long.
8. There are many varieties of nuts, and this one has a very uneven shape and looks a bit like it's wrinkled. Can you name the nut to which I am referring?

Answer: walnut

Walnuts are very good to eat and are good for your body too. They provide many of the nutrients that you need every day such as fiber, protein and vitamins B and E. They are very high in calories, so you should be careful and only eat about a handful or so a day.
9. What is another word for a piece of furniture that we might also call bric-a-brac?

Answer: whatnot

A whatnot can be a variety of objects such as decorative items, ornaments, books, figurines, crystal, or many other special collectables. There is also a piece of furniture, mainly made of wood, with stands and shelves that are often used as a whatnot stand.

Some of these are built with glass and mirrors with a lighting effect that gives a beautiful display for whatnots. This type is generally called a curio cabinet.
10. This word has a number of different meanings, but the one we associate it with most is losing balance from waves and falling off a surfboard. Do you know what word I am asking about?

Answer: wipeout

According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, wipeout is described as, "to destroy completely or annihilate", and "to fall or crash usually as a result of losing control". A wipeout can be caused by natural occurrences such as earthquakes, hurricanes and other disasters. It is also related to crashing or tumbling off your bicycle or while you may be water or snow skiing.
