Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. How to play: The last three letters of each answer become the first three letters of the next answer. Eg: ApPLE, PLEntiFUL, FULsome. If you get stuck on an answer, it may be possible to skip forward then work your way back. If there is more than one answer to a question, make sure it fits with the following question. All answers are single words. The first and last answers share a common link. Good luck! First word: What is the hottest season of the year?

Answer: Summer

Summer comes between spring and autumn (fall) and is the hottest season of the year. The seasons are a result of the Earth's axis tilt, causing a differentiation in distance to the sun. When the northern hemisphere tilts toward the sun, summer occurs and the southern hemisphere tilts away, giving a corresponding winter season.
2. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, who was the wizard famous during Arthurian times?

Answer: Merlin

The last word was 'Summer', so this word must begin with 'MER'.

According to legend, Merlin was the greatest wizard of all time and is associated with King Arthur. The legend of Arthur and Merlin was popularised by the writings of Geoffrey of Monmouth in 1136.

Merlin was also popular in medieval Welsh poetry where he was known as Merlin Ambrosius.

So popular is the legend of Merlin that he has been immortalised in literature, on television and movies.
3. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, what is a synonym for loiter or hang around?

Answer: Linger

The last word was 'Merlin', so this word must begin with 'LIN'.

To loiter, or stay longer than expected is to linger. It may also mean to take longer on a specific task, to be reluctant to leave an area, or even to be slower than expected to die.
4. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, what is a small burrowing rodent often kept as a pet?

Answer: Gerbil

The last word was 'Linger', so this word must begin with 'GER'.

A gerbil is a small rodent from Asia and Africa and gets its name from the French word 'gerbille' meaning little jerboa. It is very similar to a mouse and is popular as a cute little pet.
5. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, what is a large advertising sign on the side of the road?

Answer: Billboard

The last word was 'Gerbil', so this word must begin with 'BIL'.

A now permanent feature along busy highways are these huge advertising boards that are impossible to miss. But they are not relegated to just the roadsides, nor are they the standard paper on board backing. Digital billboards are becoming prevalent, with a particularly large example being found in Times Square. They're also on the move. Smaller billboards may be placed on a bicycle or small trailer to become mobile billboards. And if this isn't enough to make you dizzy, there are also rotating billboards.
6. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, someone who is impassioned or fervent might be described as this.

Answer: Ardent

The last word was 'Billboard', so this word must begin with 'ARD'.

Ardent, the adjective of love, means passionate and devoted. Watch out for the zealous fans and lobbyists though, they can become quite enthusiastic.
7. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, if you have been lured by something favourable, you have been what?

Answer: Enticed

The last word was 'Ardent', so this word must begin with 'ENT'.

I've enticed you into playing this quiz, so I've lured you with a (hopefully) not-too-tricky Brain Teaser. At least you won't get stuck in a trap like a mouse after some cheese.
8. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, what type of tree is featured on Lebanon's flag?

Answer: Cedar

The last word was 'Enticed', so this word must begin with 'CED'.

Cedar wood comes from trees that grow in many areas of the world. The main types are the red and the white cedar, both used extensively in building exterior furniture because of their colour, fragrance and insect and decay resistance. Some species of cedar are used for making canoes, shingles and even pencils.

The tree on the Lebanese flag is a white cedar (coloured green on a white background).
9. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, what is the capital city of Australia's Northern Territory?

Answer: Darwin

The last word was 'Cedar', so this word must begin with 'DAR'.

Darwin is the capital of the Northern Territory and is situated on the Timor Sea. Previously known as Palmerston, it was renamed Darwin in 1911. The city has been flattened and rebuilt several times in its history, most notably after it was bombed during WWII and then after Cyclone Tracy blew it away in 1974.
10. Final word with something in common with the first word. Beginning with the last three letters of the previous answer, what is the coldest season of the year?

Answer: Winter

The last answer was 'Darwin', so this word must begin with 'WIN'.

Winter, the coldest season that brings to mind snow, freezing temperatures and short days. Unless you live in Brisbane where our winter consists of beautiful sunny days and cool nights. Jealous yet?
