So, um, ahem... It's been a while. I meant to post something this week about something, but stress got in the way. Long story, that.
But, when I want to zone out, sometimes I find quizzes to play online. Test my knowledge and all that. So, that's what I'm going to leave you with today. A quiz.
This quiz only shows 55 of them, but it's kind of particular. The titles are between 2 and 9 words long, and the full title (including all articles) must be entered for it to read. But, all the words in all the titles are given. Just...in alphabetical order.
A few tips:
Just type titles into the typing bar. It'll fill in the correct spot for you.
Spelling...counts. But, all the words are on screen, so you can check your spelling.
The top 100 novels by the Modern Library Board is a thing. I bet you could look it up. Not that I'm advocating cheating or anything...
Again, I'd love to know how you did in the comments. I didn't cheat, and it shows in my score...
108/198 words. 54%. It looks like I missed 27 of the 55 titles (although, they don't count it like that).
You'd be surprised how many "and" and "the" are going to show up. As well as the other usual words that we use to make sentences make sense. Start there.
You don't have to go in order. Start with the obvious words. And all instances of the same word fill in at the same time.
It reads down in columns, so the first word is in the first box, the second word is below the first word, etc.
Spelling counts. Capitalization doesn't matter. They fill in the punctuation.
Good luck. Let me know how you did in the comments.
As for me...
I got 140/200 or 70%.
(Full disclosure: I did cheat. A little. If I had the book, I would have cheated a lot.)
Did everyone have a pleasant Thanksgiving? Since it's Cyber Monday and the end of November (for all you NaNoers out there), I thought I'd keep things easy. How about a little literature quiz?
