QFTCI11 Game 4 Rounds 7-8: making you sick, Shakespeare
Mark Brader
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers in a single followup to the newsgroup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days. For further information see
my 2011-05-23 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI5GNM, QFTCI11, QFTCIMM)".
I did not write either of these rounds.
* Game 4, Round 7 - Things that Make You Sick
For each disease we name, pick the item from the following list
that explains what you would likely get it from. Note that we
mean this in the broadest sense: for example, correct answers
might include both infectious organisms and their vectors, among
other things. You can only give answers that are on the list,
even if some others might also be correct. On the other hand,
some questions may have more than one correct answer on the list;
in that case you can give any one.

* Game 4, Round 8 - The Play's the Thing!
For each question we will read a passage from Shakespeare, and
you simply have to name the play.
1. Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made...
2. If music be the food of love, play on.
3. Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world
Like a colossus; and we petty men
Walk under his huge legs, and peep about
To find ourselves dishonourable graves.
4. How like a fawning publican he looks!
I hate him for he is a Christian...
5. She loved me for the dangers I had passed,
And I loved her that she did pity them.
6. Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale
Her infinite variety.
7. Lord, what fools these mortals be!
8. Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love.
9. Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this "sun" of York
10. How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is
to have a thankless child!

Because of the way I have semi-automated the scoring, it is easier for
me if you quote the 10 questions are repeat your guess each time.
However, when all 10 guesses are wrong I guess it doesn't matter.

OK, so now I learnt that Shakespeare wrote at least 11 plays.

And at least one of them was set in a Nordic country, and was a correct

Hey, I know about that play. Although the prince has a very strange name,
it's neither Fredrik nor Christian! I considered that to use that answer,
but it seemed so...trivial.
I could threaten with taking revenge by using quotes from Strindberg, but
the truth is I wouldn't do any better there. Even if the quotes were in
Swedish.
