Question 2: The song "My Heart Will Go On" was featured in which film?

Question 3: Which TV show featured the characters Paddy, Boo, and Hyzenthlay?

Question 4: Which amendment to the United States Constitution abolishes slavery?

The 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified on December 6, 1865, and it abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. This was one of the three Reconstruction Amendments that were adopted following the Civil War to dismantle the legacy of slavery and to ensure equality and rights for former slaves.


Question 5: When do tornadoes most frequently occur in "Tornado Alley" in the United States?

Tornadoes most frequently occur during spring in the central United States, known as "Tornado Alley", due to the collision of warm, moist air from the south with cool, dry air from the north, creating the perfect conditions for severe thunderstorms that can spawn tornadoes. Peak tornado activity typically happens from March to June.


Question 6: What musical famously features the song "Don't Cry for Me Argentina"?

"Don't Cry for Me Argentina" is a song from the musical "Evita," which was written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. It premiered on the West End in 1978, telling the story of Argentine political leader Eva Perón. The song is a pivotal moment in the musical, as it is sung by Evita when she addresses her people from the balcony of the Casa Rosada.


Question 7: When was William Shakespeare born?

William Shakespeare was born in April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon, England. He is often regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and is known for his plays such as "Hamlet," "Romeo and Juliet," and "Macbeth." He died in 1616, which is often provided as an incorrect answer due to its prominence as the year of his death.



Question 8: Why do cars typically have a red rear fog light?

The rear fog light on a car is usually red in color and is designed to make the car more visible from behind in conditions of poor visibility such as fog, mist, or heavy rain. It is mounted lower than the regular taillights to distinguish it. Rear fog lights are required equipment in many countries.


Question 9: In Greek mythology, who is the god of the underworld?

In Greek mythology, Hades rules the underworld, the realm of the dead. He is often depicted with his three-headed dog Cerberus who guards the entrance to the underworld.
