The Weekend Quiz – April 28-29, 2018
Welcome to The Weekend Quiz. The quiz tests whether you have been paying attention or not to the blogs I post. See how you go with the following questions. Your results are only known to you and no records are retained.
Oh dear, only 2 out of 3 this week…. but I think I know where I went wrong with number 3 – with Bill’s questions the rule is “always read the question two or three times…. and then read it again, and then deeply question your instinctive response because it is probably on the right track but lacking nuance….
Two out of three…. An improvement on last week though. I’ve got to stop looking for traps in the questions!
Q3 wrong.
1 and 3 wrong. As always, I shall be interested to find out why.
Mike,
I usually get them all right these days(mostly) but I still do them every week. I honest believe they help keep me “sharp” in general conversation….Take question Q1 for example. I was on a radio show recently and the president of our Economic Society stated exactly the Q1 story( excluding the “Modern Monetary Theory teaches us” part). I was about to “fly into” him but caught myself just in time. I quietly asked: Do you mean financial or real resource crowding out? His reply was, real resource. I agreed.
Saved by a word….. LOL
