I do have a nit to pick with this one, even though I got the answer
"correctly":
3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made
from blue
bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is
made
from black bricks, what is a green house made from?
Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said 'green bricks,'
why the
hell are you still reading these???
Greenhouses *are* made from glass. However, green houses are, probably,
made from green bricks (if red houses are made from red bricks etc).
There's a difference between a "green house" and a "greenhouse" (I even
pronounce the two slightly differently). If whoever made up that
question doesn't know it, he/she has no right to sneer at those of us
who do :)
Pedantically yours,
