When was the other time I help someone with her ESL homework?  March 30, 2015 (100 Happy Days Challenge - Day 10).  I wrote a blog post about it.

Today's homework made me feel like I was one of the contestants of an American quiz game show Are YOU Smarter than a 5th Grader? (Fox / GSN).  Am I smarter than a 5th Grader?  Certainly not.

Please answer this question.

Theme: World Record Quiz

Which person invented the most objects during his lifetime?
a) Thomas Edison
b) Alexander Graham Bell
c) Leonardo da Vinci

Do you know the answer?

  • Leonardo da Vinci invented a car, an aircraft and a helicopter in the 15th century. 
  • Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone and many other things.
  • The correct answer is Thomas Edison.  He invented the electric light bulb and more than 1,300 other objects.

How did you do?

Oooh, why didn't I remember song lyrics of a Japanese anime song - Odoru Ponpokorin from Chibi Maruko-chan.  I learned how to sing this song not that long ago on May 16.

If I remembered lyrics of this song, I might answer the question correctly.

Major part of the lyrics of Odoru Ponpokorin is in this blog post.
