Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. I've got this illness, so I should see my doctor. But I'm rather afraid to do so. What do I suffer from?

Answer: Iatrophobia

You just wonder how you can be cured from this disorder when the one person to help you is the object of your fear. About the wrong answers: Iophobia is the fear of poison, Ichthyophobia is the fear of fish, and the fear of termites is called Isopterophobia.
2. To win the Tour de France is difficult enough in itself. To do so five times is quite brilliant. But who was the first to win this event five times in a row?

Answer: Indurain

The men who have won 'La Grande Boucle' five times were (in this order): Jacques Anquetil (France), Eddy Merckx (Belgium) and Bernard Hinault (France). In 1995 Miguel Indurain (from Spain) was the first to have recorded five consecutive wins. This achievement was only equalled by Lance Armstrong in 2003.
3. Sir Walter Scott has produced many poems and novels. One of them features a gallant knight. What is his name?

Answer: Ivanhoe

Scott lived from 1771 to 1832. Besides Ivanhoe he has written poems like 'The Lay Of The Minstrel' (1805) and 'The Lady Of The Lake' (1810). Next to 'Ivanhoe' (1819) his most famous novel must be 'Rob Roy', which was published in 1817.
4. 'The Greatest Gift' was the working title of what film classic?

Answer: It's A Wonderful Life

Directed by Frank Capra this 1946 movie stars James Stewart, just back from being a wartime hero in the US Air Force. Here he plays a savings-and-loan manager who at one point (around Christmas) considers himself a failure. As he feels the world is better off without him, he wants to commit suicide.

It takes Clarence, an angel without wings, to show him what would have happened shouldn't he have lived. And they all lived happily ever after.
5. Sport. What score does one need to decide a judo match immediately?

Answer: Ippon

Ippon is a full point. As far as I know the other words do not exist in judo.
6. The United States, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands joined forces to develop a satellite which was launched in 1983. What was the name of this satellite?

Answer: IRAS

IRAS means Infrared Astronomic Satellite and was launched on January 25, 1983. Its objective was to survey the sky in the infrared region of the spectrum. It was a succesful operation as IRAS detected 350,000 infrared sources, including 86 galaxies.
7. The Prairie State is the nickname of what American state?

Answer: Illinois

And Illinois is also known as the Land of Lincoln, the Corn State, the Garden of the West, Egypt and the strangest of them all: Sucker State. The origin of this name is open to debate. As to the other states: the best known nickname for Iowa is 'Hawkeye State' and for Indiana it is 'Hoosier State'. 'Gem State' and 'Gem of the Mountains' are synonymous to Idaho.
8. Mythology: Who was the son of Daedalus, the boy who crashed into the sea when escaping Minos' labyrinth?

Answer: Icarus

Daedalus had warned Icarus not to fly too close to the sun as the heat would melt the wax of his suit. But his son, full of excitement, just forgot and died tragically.
9. It's a beach in Rio, and it is famous for this particular girl. What is its name?

Answer: Ipanema

Ipanema is an Indian word and means 'Dangerous, bad waters'. The original 'The Girl From Ipanema' was written and performed by Brazilian Antonio Carlos Tom Jobim.
10. It is a grazing mammal which lives mainly in the southern part of the African continent. Its male has ridged, curved horns. What is the name of this kind of antelope?

Answer: Impala

Impala is a Zulu word, meaning gazelle. An impala can jump up to ten feet (three metres) high and thirty feet (around ten metres) far, quite necessary with predators like the leopard, the caracal and the jackal around.
