Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What word (in Spanish) appears on a Mexican stop sign?

Answer: Alto

Like American signs, Spanish stop signs are red octagons with white borders. They say "alto" in Mexico, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. The signs say "pare" in Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Chile, Cuba, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Ecuador, and Venezuela. In Spain, the signs say "stop" because of European Union rules.

2. Which successful HBO television series had the season one tagline, "Tony's not like other fathers. Tony is a mob boss."?

Answer: The Sopranos

Another season one tagline was, "Meet Tony Soprano. If one family doesn't kill him... the other family will." "The Sopranos" was a show about a New Jersey mob boss and his life, work, and psychotherapy sessions.

3. In law, what is the word for an EXACT copy of a document?

Answer: Tenor

In law, it also means the exact wording of a document as opposed to the effect the document had. For example, the Emancipation Proclamation made people think that slaves were free, but the *tenor* of the document shows that no slaves were freed by the document at all.

4. What type of fish comes in varieties such as striped, spotted, and largemouth?

Bass fishing (also known as angling) is a popular North American sport. Although they are referred to as bass, all of the animals are members of the sunfish family.
