Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gbrainy
Several of the verbal questions have errors in them. Jordi asked me to
put them all in one bug report.
<analogy>
<_question type = "MultipleOptions">An artist that has became
an enduring icon is?</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">emblem</_answer>
<_answer>innovator</_answer>
<_answer>pioneer</_answer>
<_answer>martyr</_answer>
</analogy>
I am not familiar with emblem being used in this context.
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">fish / aquarium |
monkey</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">zoo</_answer>
</analogy>
Could be interpreted in several ways.
where do monkeys live: tree, jungle etc
where do monkeys live in captivity: cage
An aquarium can mean a fish tank, as well as an attraction at a person would
visit.
where should i go to see monkeys in captivity: zoo
But most zoos also have fish in them.
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">ring / finger |
bracelet</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">wrist</_answer>
</analogy>
Maybe 'arm' should be an option aswell
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">seals / flippers |
bird</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">wings</_answer>
</analogy>
Either bird should be birds, or seals should be seal.
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">tears / eyes |
sweat</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">body</_answer>
</analogy>
Skin or Pore(s), are also good answers. A guess feet or armpits could be
valid. Wikipedia suggests sweat gland.
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">dish / break |
balloon</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">burst</_answer>
</analogy>
Also 'pop'
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">bridge / over |
tunnel</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">in</_answer>
</analogy>
Also 'under' or 'through'
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">eyebrow / eye |
mustache</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">lip</_answer>
</analogy>
Also 'mouth'
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">whirlpool / water |
tornado</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">wind</_answer>
</analogy>
Also 'air'
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">slurp / tongue |
snort</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">nose</_answer>
</analogy>
I would not associate slurping with the tongue, maybe should be "slurp /
mouth | snort"
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">novel / author |
song</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">composer</_answer>
</analogy>
Also 'writer'
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">art / studio |
music</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">conservatory</_answer>
</analogy>
Really not sure about this one. Although dictionary.com has conservatory as a
music school, that's not a common definition in English. Music would usually be
recorded in a studio, or performed in a concert hall or band stand, but then
art should probably be gallery. Probably best to drop this question. Maybe
replace with
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">art / gallery |
drama</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">theatre</_answer>
</analogy>
<analogy>
<_question type = "PairOfWordsCompare">car / road |
train</_question>
<_answer correct ="yes">track</_answer>
</analogy>
Also 'railway', 'train track', 'rail'
